0:17.7	Okay, here we are. Welcome to Pints with Aquinas. My name is Matt Frad.
0:22.6	I am super jazzed to have Dr. Brant Petra on the show.
0:26.6	One of the things we're going to be focusing on today is the spiritual life.
0:30.6	He's written a new book on this topic and I've delved into it and have really already learnt quite a lot.
0:35.6	We'll be talking a little bit about Thomas Aquinas,
0:38.4	what he has to say about prayer, we'll talk about distractions, we'll take some of your questions.
0:42.5	It's going to be absolutely fantastic. But before we do, and speaking of prayer, I want to tell you
0:47.5	about Hello. Hello is a fantastic app. You've heard me talk about it before. It's the
0:53.2	number one downloaded Catholic app.
0:55.8	Tons of five-star reviews and they've just released this challenge for Advent. It's called
1:01.0	Pray 25. So if you don't yet have the hallow app, download it and journey towards Christmas with them.

1:12.6	where we would say things like, it's good for a Catholic app or it's good for a Catholic website.
1:17.7	No longer. I mean, Hallow has put a ton of resources into making this app to be as good as it gets.
1:23.9	I mean, I actually just for fun, downloaded a meditation app. It was like a Buddhist
1:28.1	leading you in, you know, it's a very, very popular mindfulness sort of app. I didn't really use it. I just
1:32.0	wanted to see how good it was. I have to say, in all honesty, the functionality, the look and feel
1:37.4	of hallow is superior to that mindfulness app I downloaded. So kudos to them. Check it out. This challenge is all about
1:46.5	journeying to the manger through the eyes of Mary. During the first three weeks of Advent, they'll
1:50.5	focus on themes like hope, faith, and joy, leaning on scripture to help us understand and grow
1:57.0	in all these areas. Check it out. Really good stuff. My wife and I have used it in the past,
