Summary

Fr. Mike points out how easy it is to take good things and make idols out of them, setting them up as God's rivals for our hearts. We can discover these rivals by noticing the things we prioritize over spending time with God. The readings are 2 Maccabees 13, Wisdom 15-16, and Proverbs 25:15-17.

0:00.0	Before we get started, I just wanted to offer a quick thank you to all those who have supported
0:04.1	the Catechism in a year or the Bible in your podcast. We hear stories every day about how those shows
0:09.4	have transformed people's lives, and because of your prayers and financial gifts, you are a significant
0:13.6	part of that. You might ask a question, though. The question is, what does this intention do with
0:17.3	these financial gifts? Great question. The answer is we make authentically Catholic
0:21.7	podcasts and videos and other digital content to help people know the Catholic faith and grow closer

1:15.4	You might know this, but there are three days left in the Old Testament, not counting the book of Proverbs, which is pretty phenomenal. We have Second Maccabees chapter 13, the book of
1:20.0	Wisdom, chapter 15 and 16, as well as Proverbs chapter 25 versus 15 through 17. As always,
1:25.0	the Bible translation I'm reading from is the revised standard version, second Catholic edition.
