Welcome to the Jeff Kaven show where we talk about the Bible, discipleship and evangelization putting it all together and living as activated disciples.

This is show 288, your Catholics with Army knife.

And welcome Jeff Kavens with you.

Thank you for joining me again this week.

One of my all time precious possessions that I have in this box of kind of kid things.

You know, when you were growing up was a little red Swiss Army knife.

Now that one had, oh, I don't know, maybe four or five tools on it.

It was, I think they called it, I don't know what it was.

It's just the standard one, you know, when I was a kid.

But there was something about getting that multi tool, which by the way,

I'm really popular these days, whether it be leather men, Gerber, Victronics, whatever.

There was something about having that little Swiss Army knife that gave me a sense of empowerment.

You know what I'm talking about?

Maybe you've experienced the same thing.

You've got that in your purse and you've got, or you've got it in your pocket,

maybe in the glove compartment or on that tray between the seats in the car.

But having that little tool with maybe seven, eight, nine, ten different tools built into it,

man, you're ready to tackle the day, right?

And you can't wait to use it.

I just got back from Switzerland about a month ago.

My wife is Swiss and from Basel, Switzerland.

And we took a cruise on the Ryan River with about 85 of my best friends.
