Pints With Aquinas

Pull up a barstool with me and relax. I mean it! We need to relax. This week's episode of "Pints with Aquinas" is all about overwork, why technology makes us more stressed, and how to find true rest and leisure. We're going to look at a pretty hard-hitting argument from Aquinas for why we need to be joyful and get some pleasure in our lives. We'll also talk about: - What is true rest for the soul (the answer may surprise you) - The difference between true leisure and distraction - The sin of not playing (yes, this is for real) - Some practical tips for detaching yourself from technology Download my FREE ebook, "You Can Understand Aquinas," now!

What can the Bible tell us about the papacy? A lot, actually. That's what I talk about today with my guest Suan Sonna, a philosophy student at Kansas State University and a Catholic convert. So, top off your glass and listen as he lays out a fascinating argument that answers the questions: - Did Jesus intend to make Peter a pope? - Did the first Christians believe they had a pope? - Where does the Old Testament talk about the papacy? - What is "living memory" and what can it tell us about the first popes?

Dr. Janet Smith and Fr. Gregory Pine debate the morality of lying, exploring scenarios like hiding Jews from Nazis and the complexities of undercover police work. They discuss the parallel between lying and contraception pre and post fall, and analyze instances of deception in the Bible, asserting that there are times when falsehoods are acceptable. The podcast also touches on the purpose of speech, determining the morality of acts, and the definition and context of lying.
