Found Alive: Recent Episodes
Maria Therese Maggio
Living well includes living with passion and wonder and intentionality. When we lose these qualities of living and simply walk through the motions, we are what G.K. Chesterton would call sleeping men walking. We must strive to live while we are alive. So, join this podcast as we discuss the philosophy of living well and the theology behind it.
The wellspring we can forget and overlook is the wellspring to which we should be most used to running: the Eucharist. Join us as we discuss why frequenting adoration and Holy Mass has more than just a personal effect.
We so often make things about control. We fixate on God and His laws as taking over control of our lives. This episode explains that controlling us and our lives isn't what God wants. Rather, He wants to empower us so that we can make choices which lead us to what is truly good and fulfilling (a.k.a. take control of our lives in a healthy, gracefilled way).
There is a temptation when we think on spiritual things to leave our realizations in the realm of imagination. In this podcast, we reflect on the fact that our call is bring these thoughts into actuality. What with the New Year, it is the perfect time to make commitments to make steps toward bringing our imaginations, desires, and hopes into reality.
