How to be the Spiritual Leader of your family w/ Dr. Scott Hahn

In this very special episode of Pints with Aquinas, Matt is joined by none other than Dr. Scott Hahn. The two discuss how to become the spiritual leader of your family, and Dr. Hahn has a lot to say.

First, there’s his personal account of what prayer life has been like in his own home. Dr. Hahn also shares his thoughts on the key roles that individuals play within the family and how they impact a family’s spiritual life.

In this episode, Matt and Dr. Hahn discuss:

The current state of social isolation and the potential for personal and spiritual growth
The priestly role of fathers and sons within the family
The essential role of women as the “heart” of the home
And much more.

How can Dr. Hahn’s insights on prayer and the family dynamic inspire your own family to grow prayerfully and spiritually? Listen to the whole episode, drink it all in, and let us know what you think.

God and Atheism

In this Dostoevsky-esque short story, “A Shuttered Universe: A Novel in 9 Letters,” Matt weaves a tale inspired by Aquinas’ arguments against atheism. When a Christian invites his atheist friend to a Christian conference, the two end up swapping their beliefs. Through their genteel arguments explaining their new positions on religion, they open a dialogue that brings each closer to the truth.

What can we learn from the nine letters in this short story?

Logic is vital in any discussion about Christianity
Frank discussion that takes us out of our comfort zone helps us to better understand our beliefs in Christianity
Modernism attempts to squelch our faith, but reason can always prevail

Listen to the whole episode now, and enjoy Matt’s tale of Christianity and atheism.
