In this episode we introduce the Fourth Part of the Catechism, which refers to PRAYER. We look at what is prayer, we consider some examples of prayer in the Old and New Testaments. I also share a great story involving one of the Generals in St. Joan of Arc’s French army who wanted to avoid praying—you can guess what finally happened!

This is the second half of my commentary on the Eighth Commandment, “Thou shall not bear false witness against your neighbor.” We look at the different sins against the eighth Commandment and some of the virtues, we are encouraged to live out. Encouraged by the amazing example of Eleazar from the Book of Maccabees, we also look into the relationship between truth, beauty and art.
