| 0:00.0 | You're listening to Catholic Sprouts, the daily podcast for Catholic kids that strives to plant seeds of faith. |
| 0:30.2 | Hey there, Sprouds. Today is Monday, December 28th, 2020. Today is also the Feastay of the Holy Innocence. |
| 0:38.9 | Now, today on this feast day, we remember all of those young children that were killed in Bethlehem by King Herod shortly after Jesus was born. |
| 0:45.9 | If you remember, the three wise men had told King Herod about the star they were following and the great king that they were expecting to find underneath this star. |
| 0:51.5 | King Herod was violent and jealous, and he really did not want anyone to threaten |
| 0:57.5 | his power. So shortly after Jesus was born, he sent his soldiers into Bethlehem, and they killed |
| 1:03.9 | all of the young children there. Fortunately, God's angel had warned St. Joseph, and he had taken the Holy Family out of Bethlehem |
| 1:12.6 | and into Egypt, and therefore Jesus had survived. But today we remember all of those young children |
| 1:19.4 | that were killed. Now, today, Spruz, we are going to start in on a new topic that we will be |
| 1:26.0 | talking about all week, and that topic is |
| 1:29.2 | the family. This time of year, right after Christmas, where we're still celebrating Jesus' |
| 1:36.3 | birthday, his entrance into the world, is a great time to reflect on the family. All of us are part of a family, and that is incredibly important. |
| 1:50.5 | In fact, Pope St. John Paul II, when he was talking about the family, he described it as |
| 1:57.2 | the little church, that, yep, we go to our parish church on Sundays to that impressive |
| 2:04.1 | building but we also belong to and spend even more time in a little church the church of our |
| 2:12.8 | homes now what does this mean well it means lots of things. First of all, remember always that your |
| 2:20.8 | home and your family are a sacred and important place that God puts you here for a specific |
| 2:27.4 | reason. But we also need to think, okay, well, what do I do at church, the big church, that I need to also be doing in my family? |
| 2:37.8 | Now, succinctly, when we go to church, we commune with God. |
| 2:43.3 | We enter his presence. |
| 2:45.0 | We stand before him and allow him to see us. |
| 2:48.1 | We do that also in our homes. |
