In episode #4 of "3 Padres and a Shepherd," we will be taking a closer look into Jesus' interaction with two women: Mary and Martha. We will be asking the question, "Is...
God's Name is an important thing. We learn about it's power and the reasons why God gives it to us to use in the Catechism when we study the Second Commandment, the Lord's Prayer, and Baptism. Why does God value His Name? What does He think about misuse of it? What does it mean for Christians that we are marked in God's Name?
