0:00.0	You're listening to Catholic Sprouts, the daily podcast for Catholic kids that strives to plant seeds of faith.
0:24.0	Hey there, Spouts.
0:28.0	Today is Tuesday, December 21st, 2021.
0:34.8	We are in the fourth week of Advent, and we is, as we prepare in this final stretch for Christmas,
0:39.8	we are going through 10 points laid out by St. Thomas Aquinas in the Summa Theologica that remind us how incredible the incarnation is. And of course,
0:47.6	the incarnation is the fact that God himself became man was born in a manger to fairly unimportant parents, but that God became man, was born in a manger, to fairly unimportant parents, but that God
0:57.5	became man, he became fully man, while remaining fully God.
1:03.0	Yesterday we talked about faith and hope. Reason number three from St. Thomas Aquinas
1:08.9	is that through the incarnation, we are shown what true, pure love is.

2:16.2	through deeds that are focused on the person receiving the gift
2:21.0	and where we let go of all of our hurts and desires, and we just focus on them.
2:29.5	Now, reason number four from St. Thomas Aquinas, why the incarnation is so important is because through Christ
2:37.0	becoming a human being, we have a perfect model for what we need to be. Now, imagine before Jesus
2:48.8	came, before Jesus, there were good people that lived, but they were all people. They were all sinners. They all had problems. For example, even King David, who was a good king who wrote some wonderful songs of praise to God, who did some incredible things.
3:08.6	He still was a sinner.
