Co-Authoring My Life

Father Michael O'Loughlin and Mother Natalia
About this episode

This week Fr. Michael responds to a correction from a listener, and uses that as inspiration for this week's topic. We talk about letting God work through us and using the gifts He's given us. We talk about how the authors of scripture were so in sync with the Holy Spirit that it showed in their inspired writings.

Plus we have a mini-topic on charismatic renewal in the Byzantine Churches.
