I'm watching this ten-episode documentary with Rev. Robert Barron. My parish library has a copy. Anybody seen it? What a great piece of work! Beautiful cinematography. A lot of down-to-earth teaching about the Church. I'm really loving learning about my Faith. Ends with this: Catholicism is a way of seeing. Catholicism is a manner of life. Catholicism has a distinctive texture, feel, and resonance. It all begins with, revolves around, and leads to Jesus Christ, the Word made flesh. http://www.catholicismseries.com/ | |||

Episode 8: "A Vast Company of Witnesses: The Communion of Saints." I am loving this one! Fr. Barron celebrates some of the Church's most extraordinary saints--Edith Stein, Mother Teresa, Therese of Lisieux, and Katherine Drexel. In episode 9, "The Fire of His Love: Prayer and the Life of the Spirit" Thomas Merton and St. John of the Cross are covered. It is brief coverage on Christian mysticism, but I think some important themes are illustrated. I see EWTN is showing some of this again in March. http://www.catholicismseries.c...beginning-this-march | ||||

Some of our retreat center staff are going through the series with the Dominican Sisters in Great Bend and they love it. Sounds like a great resource. | ||||
