Episode Details

God’s Word is not meant to sit on our shelf or stay in our head, but to be taken in until it changes how we live. We reflect on Ezekiel’s command to eat the scroll and on Saint Clare of Assisi as a portrait of humility, trust, and dependence on Christ. 
• Ezekiel’s image of eating the scroll as Scripture becoming part of us 
• the difference between knowing the gospel and being changed by it 
• Saint Clare’s decision to leave privilege for poverty and prayer 
• Jesus placing a child before disciples as a lesson in humility 
• childlike trust as spiritual strength rather than weakness 
• Clare facing danger by holding the Blessed Sacrament in faith 
• letting Sunday’s gospel reshape Monday’s choices 
• the Mass pattern of Word then Eucharist then mission
