I think I may have misspoke during our podcast saying that I had attended four of the Baptism of the Spirit seminars. What I really attended was the Life In the Spirit seminars. Every year when I go to Franciscan University for the summer conference and retreat for priests, deacons and seminarians — one of the tracks they offer is the Life in the Spirit. At any rate, I’m convinced that Jesus has asked the Holy Spirit to anoint me with a growing appreciation for Scripture. This new love for God’s holy Word manifests itself in fresh insights into Scripture, a desire to spend more time with Scripture and a desire to share my enthusiasm with others. I truly believe God will similarly gift any who approach Him with a hungry heart.
Meanwhile — I thank our guest, Kelly Wahlquist from the Great Adventure Catholic Bible Study program originated by Jeff Cavins. Jeff, Kelly and other recognizable names are associated with this program. Depending upon your needs, your diocese or parish or other organization can have Kelly and her associates come to lead you into the excitement of God’s Word broken open and poured out among us.

During the podcast, Tom mentioned a book by Dr. Mary Healy entitled THE GOSPEL OF MARK, a Book of Catholic Commentary on Sacred Scripture. Its published by Baker Academic and it would be an ideal book for someone wanting to respond to Gods call for a new love of Catholic Vitamin G — the Gospels.
