Fr. Peter Armenio joins Patrick to Friendship with Christ
- How can we have friendship with God?
- (12:19) How do we understand some of the euphemism that saints use to describe their love for Christ?
- (18:25) Bob - I once went to confession and told the priest I was having trouble getting angry with God over disappointments. Angry about it and yelling at God. Fr. told me you probably think I'll get down on you for getting angry with God, but you know God and trust him enough that you can get angry with Him and you can handle that. I was really moved by that. Relationship with God is everything.
(26:05) Break 1
- Marsha - I'm a cradle Catholic. I've had a relationship with Jesus. The Baptists brought me into that relationship. They gave me a deeper dive into the intimacy with Christ. I hope they saw the beauty of the Catholic church.
- How does interior life help us from our relationship with Jesus?
- (40:40) Deedee - My relationship is one of a father and daughter. Trying to be friends with God is sacrilegious. Wouldn't there be a spiritual boundary of some sort? What does friendly speech sound like instead of prayer?
(43:43) Break 2
- (44:49) What can Mary Magdalene teach us about friendship with Christ?
