Welcome to God's Plaining.

Contemplative Preachers, Contemporary Age.

Each week, join the Dominican friars as they consider all things Catholic.

Welcome back to God's explaining. I'm Father Joseph Anthony Cress.

It's joy to have you with us today and I am joined by the illustrious,

wonderful, gregarious, Father Gregory Pine.

Wow, that was, those are three adjectives that have never been attributed to me before

So I'm delighted to receive those accolades, but I don't know whether or not I marry them

Not going to lie. I have no idea why it went with those

It's been a long, long day and it's in the evening, so I just wanted to, I don't know, be an idiot about it.

But thanks for, yeah, thanks for joining. Got a topic today that we, I think it's important to all of us, especially as

Dominicans, but for Christians who are just striving to live a life of perfection and a life and

upright virtuous life we want to talk about the virtue of prudence today as a college chaplain working with students a lot of

students will step to me and be like all right what do I do here or what's what's

the most prudent thing to do in these situations?

So kind of helping our listeners understand

what prudence is and how it fits into our Christian life

I think can be very helpful.

So I want to kick it to you and say,

what is it?

I think there's a lot of confusion, right?

Yeah.
