Fr. Joseph Johnson joins Patrick to discuss Conquering Pride
(3:13) Why is pride at the root of all sin?
The subtlety of pride
(14:16) Valerie - At OCIA...one of the ladies I was with is very humble and I told her that. I think if you're humble, you're void of pride.

(21:09) Break 1
Email from Jared - How do we know when pride becomes a mortal sin?
What are some tips for recognizing pride in our life?
(27:45) Tom - I have a nephew who is a Jesuit. He is such an example of gentleness and a quiet example of humility. It speaks louder than any preaching others do.
Noah - I make decent money and I'm looking forward to moving to my previous job where I was happy. I think I was just a little too prideful on being a high earner instead of being humble. Looking for some guidance with this on what to do. Should I stay where I'm at or go where I'm happy?

(36:36) Break 2
How does trust help us to grow in humility?
(41:56)  Nick - I've learned that life is a battle...no winning/no losing. I know I have a fight. Even though I think I'm a good Catholic, it's still a fight. I still have to fight to fight.
Greg - When I read the bible, things that have a message to be shared, but never get a chance to do that. Not that I have pride, but it's something to be talked about.
