S11 Episode 81- Metaphysical archipelago
In this episode, the dogs center their conversation around a quote from Edith Stein (5:50) about hidden souls and their impact on salvation history. Connor shares his experience in Ireland so far (11:55), Rob reflects on the immense gift of the human soul (23:20), and Michael Metz ties it all back into Mary's fiat (26:10).
Quotes:
"The greatest figures of prophecy and sanctity step forth out of the darkest night. . . . Certainly the decisive turning points in world history are substantially co-determined by souls whom no history book ever mentions. And we will only find out about those souls to whom we owe the decisive turning points in our personal lives on the day when all that is hidden is revealed." (Rob quoting Edith Stein, 5:50)
“The formative stream of salvation history actually comes from the little ones and the hidden souls.” (Rob, 7:20)
“My heart is open to receive what God wants to show me about my story.” (Connor, 14:20)
“None of us are actually isolated self-made beings.” (Connor, 15:00)
“The church really is my family.” (Connor, 20:20)
“Not only does God respect it (our hiddenness), that's how he moves through us.” (Michael Metz, 27:50)
“The fulfillment of revelation is that God desires to win us over; and he’s happy to do it.” (Connor, 29:00)
