In our modern world, we tend to associate the "heart" with pure emotion and feelings, but the ancient biblical understanding is completely different!

Join us as we explore the spiritual battlefield of our thoughts, the story of the Samaritan woman at the well, and practical steps for washing your mind with the Word of God.
π WHAT IS THIS EPISODE ABOUT? The Biblical Heart vs. Modern Feelings Msgr. Pope explains why the ancients viewed the heart as the center of thought, deliberation, and decision-making (while feelings were actually associated with the gut!). Learn why giving God your "whole heart" really means surrendering your intellect and your will. The Battlefield of the Mind βSow a thought, reap a deed. Sow a deed, reap a habit. Sow a habit, reap a character...β Msgr. Pope breaks down the psychology of the spiritual life, explaining how our thoughts directly produce our feelings. If you want peace, you have to stop soaking your mind in the "dirty water" of the secular world and start washing it with Scripture. The Woman at the Well & Infinite Longing Do you ever feel a deep, restless longing inside, even when you are practicing your faith? Msgr. Pope uses the story of Jesus and the Samaritan woman at the well to explain why God doesn't just "zap" our pain away instantly, but instead initiates a deep, gradual healing process to prepare us for Heaven.
