Conversations with Father Greg

Merry Christmas!   Let’s spend some time celebrating someone who has moved into our neighbourhood!  (John 1:1-14)

Today we read about a young woman’s encounter with an angel with a life changing message.  Some of that change would be overwhelming, some would bring great sadness, and some would bring her great joy.   Come and listen to how it turns out.   (Luke 1:26-38)

When you introduce yourself to someone, what are the first three things that you tell them?   What do those 3 things say about your sense of identity?  What do John the Baptist and Jesus have to say about our sense of identity?    Come and see.  (John 1:6-9, 19-28)

John the Baptist helps us prepare to celebrate the birth of Jesus, at Christmas.   Along the way, we are reminded that Advent is not simply about passively watching and waiting for something to happen … its an invitation to actively seek out ways to participate in the God’s work in the world. (Mark 1:1-8)

WHY ANOTHER PODCAST:

In March 2020 the world was rocked by a global pandemic.

Businesses, schools, and places of worship all over the world were forced into lockdown in an effort to protect people from the spread of COVID-19.

For many, these efforts to bring physical safety from disease also brought an overwhelming sense of isolation and loneliness.

People all over the world have been exploring new ways of developing and maintaining relationships, and of sharing the things that are important to us.

This podcast is an attempt to explore ways to overcome isolation and help people to thoughtfully consider the world around us through the lens of faith.

I welcome you to explore the content offered here, which I hope will grow to include homilies, interviews, and other thought provoking and encouraging content.
