Have you ever considered these questions? You might be surprised to discover that countless Saints over the centuries have chosen the life of spiritual discipline over earthly comfort and have been honored for their choice.  Click below to listen to the podcast. {audio}http://www.myocn.net/images/stories/podcast/TT_2011/TT_120615.mp3{/audio}  

On Theologically Thinking, Fr. Athanasios Haros from the Transfiguration Church in Florence, SC shares a message entitled “Knowing God.” During the High Priestly Prayer of Jesus before His Saving Passion He taught that having eternal life was to know God. Knowledge of God requires more than studying about Him in the Holy Scriptures. Knowing God requires a physical relationship with Him only available in the Eucharist. The Holy Fathers of the Church have been given the authority by the Holy Spirit to shepherd the Church, and therefore us, to a personal experiential knowledge of God. Now it’s up to us to be their flock. Click below to listen to the podcast. {audio}http://www.myocn.net/images/stories/podcast/TT_2011/TT_120601.mp3{/audio}
