How should Catholics approach the apocalyptic themes in the Mass readings as the liturgical year draws to a close? On The Son Rise Morning Show, host Matt Swaim welcomes Fr. Jonathan Duncan from the Diocese of Charleston and the Bourbon Church Revival podcast to preview the readings for the 32nd Sunday in Ordinary Time. Fr. Duncan reflects on the ancient Church tradition of "St. Martin's Lent"—a period of penance and preparation beginning near the Feast of St. Martin of Tours—and contrasts modern speculative efforts to "crack the code" of the end times with Christ's call to continuous interior vigilance. Drawing on 1 Thessalonians and the Parable of the Ten Virgins, they discuss how living a faithful sacramental life removes the fear of the Second Coming. Stream now!
