    "...We can therefore say that Tradition is not the transmission of things or words, a collection of dead things. Tradition is the living river that links us to the origins, the living river in which the origins are ever present, the great river that leads us to the gates of eternity. And since this is so, in this living river the words of the Lord that we heard on the reader's lips to start with are ceaselessly brought about: 'I am with you always, to the close of the age' (Mt 28: 20)." --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/thedcgodcast/message
