  The “holiest” person I know is my 22 year old daughter who is a nonverbal special needs young lady. When you talked about the “still small voice” when God spoke to Elijah, I thought of my daughter. She has no use of her hands and has to be fed, dressed, walked, etc. When she does make a sound, it often sounds like a kitten. God made her this way. She is the opposite of this world’s definition of a “productive citizen,” and yet, there are no words for me to describe how she effects me, my wife, her three brothers, and all those who encounter her.  She is able to receive Christ in the Eucharist and was confirmed this past June. I feel like a saint lives in my house! Her little face glows with the love of Christ. It is beyond me why God chose to bless me with this precious child. I praise God for this teaching Dr. Hahn! I sometimes grow weary, but God has used this truth you are speaking about to renew my strength.

  So grateful for this.  I had an “aha” moment when Dr. Hahn was talking about how we are supposed to work for 6 days and then rest on the 7th IN ORDER to allow God to work.  And that was partly why the Pharisees were so upset with Jesus for healing on the sabbath; only God was supposed to “work” that day, so Christ was revealing His divinity to us once again in that moment.  But it is a powerful lesson that I intend to apply to my own life and that of my families: on Sundays, I dedicate the day not only “to the Lord” but IN ORDER to allow Him to work in me.  Praised be to Jesus Christ.  Thank you both.

  Prayers appreciated for myself … I’m in RCIA this year, and will be confirmed at Easter. Some of my closest friends do not support me whatsoever in this journey of mine. I cried for over twenty minutes today - the loneliness is real and heavy to bear.

  In my opinion, Scott Hahn is the greatest catholic theologian of the 21st century. Few people in the world can talk about the beauty of faith in such a brilliant way. Hahn is primarily a witness of the Lord Jesus, therefore his theology is full of the Holy Spirit!<br><br>Greetings from Poland!

  I was told today that if I leave protestantism and affirm justification by infusion and not imputation, I&apos;ll be committing apostasy. Please pray for me that I&apos;ll find the truth and have the strength to go where God leads me. I&apos;m strongly considering both Catholicism and Orthodoxy and don&apos;t see protestantism nearly as valid anymore.

  WOW. This was mind-blowing. Had to pause in the middle for mass and I felt like I was seeing things I never saw before. Thank you

  This is amazing. I love when Dr Hahn talked about Jesus wants to heal us from the FEAR of suffering. I fear suffering like none other.<br>Thank you so much!

  As a Protestant inquiring into Catholicism. Dr Scott Hahn is such a treasure. Helping me to understand Catholicism and hearing about the faith firsthand rather than from prots who have no clue or have been misguided in their critiques of the faith. Thanks also to Pints With Aquinas for your zeal and enthusiasm. Your willingness to have guests on who illuminate these important topics is excellent!
