Episode 119: Year C – 8th Sunday of Ordinary Time

In today’s episode, there are four details that we focus on, each of which has some relevance to apologetical discussions. The first one comes from the second reading, which is taken from 1 Corinthians 15:54-58. The relevant apologetical topic is the bodily nature of Jesus’ resurrection. The other three details all come from the Gospel reading, which is taken from Luke 6:39-45. However, one detail directly corresponds to the first reading, which is taken from Sirach 27:4-7. The relevant topics for apologetics are the question of what we can and cannot judge, the role good works play in relation to our salvation, and the Deuterocanonical status of Sirach.
