Episode Details

We reflect on Saint Pius X and why he fought to bring people back to frequent Holy Communion. We connect his legacy to Ezekiel’s dry bones and to Jesus’ command to love, so our dry places can come alive again. 
• Saint Pius X’s push for frequent, even daily, Holy Communion for properly disposed Catholics 
• First Communion at the age of reason and what that says about grace and need 
• Ezekiel’s vision of dry bones as a picture of spiritual dryness and lost hope 
• The limits of self-fixing and the need for God’s breath and grace 
• The Eucharist as strength for the weak and mercy for sinners 
• Loving God and loving neighbor as the sign of a life made new 
Bring that place to Christ, especially bring it to the Eucharist.
