They That Hope

Oscar Preview

Fr. Dave and Dcn. Bob don’t know what movies are up for an Oscar, but that doesn’t stop them from talking about the Oscars. They also discuss the Cavs game they went to with fellow alumni, Amber VanVickle’s funeral, and the woman at the well (see John 4).

Darth Vader With a Lisp

Fr. Dave and Dcn. Bob discuss Banana Ball (Fr. Dave got an autographed picture!), hockey, travel, the beauty of nature, and the Transfiguration.

All-Star Wars

Fr. Dave and Dcn. Bob have a pretty strong disagreement about the value of All-Star games. They also disagree about the Ant-Man movie they saw together. What do they agree on? Jesus is our hope in the midst of tragedy, and Lent is a wonderful time to draw closer to the Lord.

Super Bowl LVII

Fr. Dave and Dcn. Bob cover the NBA, the Super Bowl, the beauty of diversity, and how wonderful our students at Franciscan are!

Fr. Dave and Dcn. Bob talk about seasons, football, eucharistic miracles, the March for Life, and the conversion of St. Paul.

2023!

It is the beginning of a new year and a new semester at Franciscan!  Dcn. Bob is excited to be back in the classroom, and Fr. Dave shares about his pilgrimage to the Holy Land.

SUPERCUT: Why Did the Word Become Flesh?

Fr. Dave and Dcn. Bob discuss the four reasons the Catechism of the Catholic Church gives for the Incarnation: to reconcile us to God, so we know God’s love, to be a model of holiness for us, and so we can partake in the divine nature.

Why Did the Word Become Flesh? (Part 4)

Fr. Dave and Dcn. Bob discuss the World Cup Final (which Bob didn’t see), the new Avatar movie (which Fr. Dave hasn’t seen), and the fourth reason for the Incarnation.
