Music Monday: Impossible Things

Leave a comment

I’ve been wondering like Moses in the desert land
I need you to part the seas and take my hand!
Through the stormy waters to the other side

’cause you do impossible things
you do impossible things
yeah, there’s nothing on earth beyond you x2

I’ve been sleeping like Lazarus in the darkened cave
I need you to roll the stone and shout my name!
Through the darkness on into the light of day

Water to wine, sight for the blind
You say the word and the dead will rise!
The lame walk around, the lost will be found
’cause that’s just what you do…impossible things

Household Codes

Leave a comment

Several times in the last couple of years, I’ve read the famous passage from Ephesians about husbands and wives which sometimes gets people up in arms. Below is a link to an episode from “The Naked Bible Podcast” where a Bible scholar goes through a similar “Household Code” from Colossians:

Worship Mary?

I saw in a Facebook discussion group a little while ago a Protestant post the above picture as definitive proof that Catholics worship Mary. The problem is that “worship” here doesn’t mean the kind of worship you give to God. Even today in the Church of England wedding vows, husband and wife will say “…with my body, I thee worship…”.

Speaking personally, I don’t like this elaborate poetic language in Marian devotion for just this reason – it’s too easy for non-Catholics to misunderstand what we believe.

PWJ: S2E28 – Bonus – “You don’t know Jack!”

This episode is quite different from our usual Pints With Jack episodes. Rather than interviewing a scholar or discussing a chapter of Lewis’ work with Matt, I’m going to be reading an article I wrote which gives a rough outline of Lewis’ life.
