Episode 1049: Aquinas's Lenten Meditation - Part 11 - Christ delivered us from the Devil
There’s a multitude of Lenten meditation books but only one that’s packed with the wisdom of St. Thomas Aquinas. Journey through Lent with the Church’s greatest philosopher-theologian. This unrivaled spiritual master guides us in encountering Our Lord and experiencing the type of fruitful Lent that he often experienced.
Walt reads and Sharon explains from Ash Wednesday - Day 1 to Holy Saturday Day 40, you’ll learn how to deepen your prayer life, conquer temptation, resist the evils incurred by sin, and equip yourself for spiritual battle.
In the straightforward, logical language for which he is famous, Aquinas shows you how to detach yourself from the things of this world and refocus on the things above, reflecting on Our Lord and Our Lady as models.
You will learn the importance of fasting to the preservation of chastity and how to perform acts that will increase your humility and purity. As you contemplate the example of Our Lord on the Cross, Aquinas will help you weed out vices and cultivate virtues to prepare for the joys of Heaven.
Let the Angelic Doctor assist you in overcoming idleness and fostering a deeper devotion with stirring reflections on:
Ways in which the Blood of Jesus is precious and salvific
The confidence we should place in Our Divine Friend, even in sickness, suffering, and pain
How Our Lady suffered and how she personifies charity, patience, humility, obedience, and detachment
Why the pain suffered by Our Lord was the greatest pain possible in this life
Jesus’ fourfold humiliation on the Cross - and the fourfold exaltation it merited Him
How Christ manifested all virtues on the Cross, the "pulpit from which He taught all mankind"
Also included are forgotten or little-known traditional feast days, such as the feast of the Holy Lance and the Nails of Our Lord and the feast of the Holy Winding Sheet.
You will find rich meditations on Christ’s Passion and reflections for each day of Holy Week. Best of all, you will discover the greatest love story of all time: the Father who offered His only Son, and the Son who underwent every suffering and sacrificed His life for our redemption.
