We are joined on the programme with a reflection by some very special guests.Bishop Brendan Leahy of Limerick reflecting Keeping the Light onJulianne Moran, General Secretary of the Irish Synodal Pathway with her reflection on Make Space for Hope.Sr Phyllis Moynihan with her reflection on Mary in our times.These reflections will also be published as daily reflections over the Christmas Octave as well so listen to in bite sized parts.********************"In those days a decree went out from Emperor Augustus that all the world should be registered. This was the first registration and was taken while Quirinius was governor of Syria. All went to their own towns to be registered. Joseph also went from the town of Nazareth in Galilee to Judea, to the city of David called Bethlehem, because he was descended from the house and family of David. He went to be registered with Mary, to whom he was engaged and who was expecting a child. While they were there, the time came for her to deliver her child. And she gave birth to her firstborn son and wrapped him in bands of cloth, and laid him in a manger, because there was no place for them in the inn.In that region there were shepherds living in the fields, keeping watch over their flock by night. Then an angel of the Lord stood before them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were terrified.But the angel said to them, ‘Do not be afraid; for see—I am bringing you good news of great joy for all the people: to you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, who is the Messiah, the Lord. This will be a sign for you: you will find a child wrapped in bands of cloth and lying in a manger.' And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host, praising God and saying,‘Glory to God in the highest heaven,and on earth peace among those whom he favours!'When the angels had left them and gone into heaven, the shepherds said to one another, ‘Let us go now to Bethlehem and see this thing that has taken place, which the Lord has made known to us.'So they went with haste and found Mary and Joseph, and the child lying in the manger.When they saw this, they made known what had been told them about this child;and all who heard it were amazed at what the shepherds told them.But Mary treasured all these words and pondered them in her heart.T he shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all they had heard and seen, as it had been told them."- (Luke 2: 1-20)Text us at +353 874668950 or email at comeandseeinspirtaions@gmail.com

After perusing a handful of books about tying and fishing midges, and in anticipation of turning to these tiny flies for much of my winter angling, I thought I'd share a potpourri of midge information today. While even tying them on might seem like a chore, the part that midges play in most trout diets makes them impossible to ignore. Even the biggest fish will gorge themselves on bugs that match a size 28 fly pattern. Getting comfortable with fishing these flies goes a long way. And today I discuss some of the tying, fishing, and storage tips that have helped me over the decades. Whether you're a believer in midges or not, listen and get excited about angling with the smallest flies out there. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

In recent days, N. T. Wright made some remarks on the morality of abortion and the necessity of believing in the bodily resurrection of Jesus. Regarding abortion, he essentially articulated the view that early abortions are morally acceptable, particularly in the cases of rape, incest, and physical deformity. Regarding the resurrection, while Write believes that Jesus was raised bodily from the dead and this should be a normative belief for Christians, he does not think a denial of this doctrine necessarily makes one a heretic who is bereft of salvation. I think he is wrong on both counts, and explain why.I end the episode with a Pet the Peeve segment about driving. Web: ThinkingtoBelieve.comEmail: ThinkingToBelieve@gmail.comFacebook: facebook.com/thinkingtobelieveTwitter & Gettr: @thinking2believTruth: @ThinkingToBelieveParler: @thinkingtobelieve

Gotta build up a better foundation if we're gonna fill out the rest of the playbook!

“The Marx Brothers Miscellany” is not only the name of a new book by our guest, Trav SD, it also aptly describes this episode. We engage in a free-wheeling discussion of numerous Marx topics, including their Vaudeville roots, how Gummo's role in the act and family differed from Zeppo's, and whether the Marxes are really the greatest comedy team. We also discuss the Algonquin Round Table's place in Marx lore, and Trav details how he helped Noah bring “I'll Say She Is” back to life in 2014.
