Manage episode 429470681 series 2040949
In this episode of the Catholic Link podcast. Fr. Rob discusses the devotion of the Brown Scapular. Our Lady appeared to St. Simon Stock and gave him the brown scapular. She promised that no one who wore it would suffer eternal fire. Fr. Rob discusses how one can live a life similar to a Carmelite and wear the brown scapular. As a child, Fr. Rob didn't understand the devotion to the Carmelites. Carmelites practice fasts and penances.
Fr. Rob encourages the laity who wear the brown scapular to adapt some of the Carmelite devotions to their lives. One could read scripture and meditate, fast from quality of food or technology time. With these practice and wearing the brown scapular, one unites their work and prayer with the sanctifying graces God offers. Carmelites engage in grueling fasts. But lay people have different circumstances that make such fasts difficult. Use discernment and prudence to create devotional practices.
Listen to the previous episode where. Fr. Rob and Fr. George discussed the need to encourage our priests. They also discuss how to approach a parish priest about difficult or confusing situations in the parish. They offer a reminder that priests studied the Faith for at least nine years in seminary. Therefore, they can offer nuance, depth, and experience that can help inform difficult situations. Priests also benefit from encourage. After a good homily or successful event, the priests benefit from knowing that their work impacted others positively.
