| 0:31.1 | Hey there, Spouts. Today is Thursday, January 2, 2025. Today is also the feast day of St. Basil the Great. This week on the Catholic Spouts podcast, we are talking about love as we work our way through |
| 0:39.4 | the ABCs of the Catholic faith. We have already discussed that God is love, that love is God's |

| 1:46.4 | is now and ever shall be. Amen. So here is the story of the family of St. Basil the Great. |
| 1:57.2 | Macrina tilted her head to the side, narrowing her eyes at her brother, Basil. The night before, |
| 2:04.3 | he had arrived home after over a year of study in Athens. All morning, he talked nonstop about the |
| 2:12.4 | things he had mastered, the awards he had won, and the big dreams he had for his future. |

| 2:23.9 | Seeing her, Basil stopped suddenly. |
