Ep. 8 - Washing of the Feet

Are you ready to challenge your notions of service and faith? That's exactly what we're going to do as we delve into the profound meaning behind a humble act - the washing of the feet. A tradition once considered menial and performed by the lowest individual in a household, Jesus transformed it into a powerful testament of humility and love. Walk with us as we explore Peter's initial refusal to have his feet washed, a reflection of our own battles with pride and scrupulosity. We'll also shed light on the concept of confessing sins and the role of intentionality in penance.

But there's more. This episode isn't just about washing feet - it's about the deep-seated connections between the Eucharist, service, and faith. We're going to uncover the importance of service in the context of the Eucharist, and the way Jesus drew attention to this connection in the Bread of Life discourse. Discover how the Last Supper served as a platform for Jesus to emphasize service, and how his self-reference as "I am" in the face of impending betrayal underlined the importance of service in the institution of the Eucharist. Saddle up for a journey that promises to reshape your perceptions of service, faith, and the Christian doctrine.
