0:00.0	You're listening to Catholic Sprouts, the daily podcast for Catholic kids that strives to plant seeds of faith.
0:39.2	Hey there, Sprouts. Today is Monday, December 20th, 2021. Today is also the start of the fourth week of Advent. So of course, you know that Christmas is just a few days away. We'll be celebrating Christmas on Sunday.
0:46.4	And so to prepare for that, we are going to be spending all week talking about the incarnation.
0:54.0	Now, I know that's a big word, but I bet you know what it is. So the incarnation is the unbelievable fact that at one point in time,
0:59.0	God decided to become a human being. God who was infinite, who created everything. He lowered himself so far that he became one of us,

2:16.5	part of his great work called the Summa Theologica,
2:19.6	and he wrote this part. He shares 10 reasons why the incarnation is so incredible. And he wrote this
2:28.4	based on the writing and preaching of St. Augustine. So two of the most smartest people that have ever walked the earth,
2:35.4	they were dedicated Catholics, loved to pray and think about the mystery of God. So they are going
2:42.6	to be telling us 10 reasons why the incarnation is wildly, insanely important. So the first one, the first reason why the incarnation matters is because of
2:54.3	our faith. Faith, belief, the Catholic faith that we belong to, the incarnation is such an
