My Friend the Friar

Embark on a journey into the heart of spiritual doctrine with Father Stephen Sanchez, a Discalced Carmelite Priest, as we confront the truths about Satan, the reality of angels, and their pivotal place in Catholic Christian faith. As we explore these profound teachings, you're promised an awakening to the deeper layers of our creed. By acknowledging the existence of spiritual beings, we not only adhere to the scriptures but also preserve the integrity of our beliefs, encompassing God, heaven, and the soul.
In a compelling narrative that mirrors the dramatic fall of Anakin Skywalker, we dissect the origins of Satan, his role as both accuser and tempter, and the intricacies of good and evil in theological discourse. Father Sanchez guides us through the theological landscape, where we examine the misuse of free will that spurred the rebellion of angels, leading to the concept of evil as a finite choice, rather than an absolute force. This episode is an invitation to understand the profound implications of pride, free will, and the power of God's love even for the fallen, an exploration that promises to enlighten and challenge the faithful and curious alike.
