What does your morning coffee have to do with the agony in the garden? More than you might think. In this episode, we dive into St. Ignatius of Loyola’s surprisingly practical—and countercultural—rules for eating. Why did Ignatius say we should never fast from bread?

Today’s Topics: 1, 2, 3, 4) Ever leave Mass wondering what just happened—or  why  it happened? This isn’t a theology lecture.
