Day 248: Cut to the Heart (2026)
About this episode
Fr. Mike discusses the importance of allowing God's teachings to impact our hearts, referencing King Jehoiakim and various Biblical readings.
Fr. Mike points out how, like King Jehoiakim, we too can dismiss God's teachings instead of letting them cut into our hearts. The readings are Jeremiah 35-36, Judith 6-7, and Proverbs 17:1-4.
