Episode notes
If God is Father, Son, and Holy Spirit — a communion of knowing and loving — what does that mean for us? This episode turns to creation.
Drawing on Frank Sheed, we look at three linked truths: God made all things from nothing; we are body and soul, not souls trapped in bodies; and we are called to a life above our nature — a share in God’s own life. Creation is not a one-time push from far away. Without God, nothing holds together. With God, even ordinary work can become a place of belonging.
Scripture: Genesis 1:26–27 or Psalm 8
Practice this week: Choose one ordinary task and do it as someone made by God and held in being by Him. No need to force a grand feeling. Just remember whose you are while you do it.
Suggested reading: Frank Sheed, Theology for Beginners, chapters on Creation, the Nature of Man, and the Supernatural Life.
