Show Notes

On this weeks podcast C&SI is starting a 5 part series for the summer months where we are sharing a series of reflections and homilies by Bishop Robert Barron from Word on Fire Ministries focusing on one of the most understood books of the Bible, the Book of Revelation.

In addition to the first in this series, we have our regular podcast numbers including a run through the liturgical odds and ends for the coming week, and of course a reflection on the Sunday gospel (Luke 9:11-17) which in the Irish liturgical calendar is the Solemnity of Corpus Christi. John also shares with us some odds and ends and local notices including reminder about the Solemn Novena to Our Lady of Perpetual Help being held at Mt St Alphonsus in Limerick in the coming week.

Just to note for listeners that Shane is travelling in far distant places over the next few weeks so our apologies in advance for some of the sound quality which isn't exactly the greatest.

The Unveiling of a New World
Revelation comes from the Latin “Revalatio,” which in turn translates the Greek “Apokalypsis”—which means, literally, “unveiling.” This final book of the Bible, which has fascinated Christians and non-Christians for two thousand years, is not primarily about the end of the physical world; rather, it is meant to unveil something that every generation of Christians needs to see—namely, a new world that God wants to be born out of the ruins of the old.
