many a year ago, a friend of mine and I were golfing. Both of us were not that great, but my friend never really golfed that much. I always remember him saying "you know homer, I admit that this is a beautiful course, but I didn't really enjoy myself". It was from that moment on, we became really good friends.
Hearing this during morning coffee. Then Catholic Classics right after

Loved this episode 💛🫶🏻🌻🌼
Friendship can be so awkward for some reason. Thank you for shedding some wisdom!🌻
This is such a sweet convo. I feel like celibates, become experts at friendship out of necessity, because they don’t have the typical romantic partnership to fall back on for companionship.
I’m a new viewer…I’m really enjoying this channel!
It's my favorite! Wisdom and humor are an excellent combo ❤❤❤
Father Pine reading my mind. I have a relationship like that. We’ll be messaging and then she disappears and I’m like, “you’re a millenial, your phone is glued to your hand, I know you’re choosing not to answer”. But perhaps it’s the Lord’s Providence to continue to humble me
Now I know my life's goal, to have a Dominican -croquet friendship😂😂😂😂😂 You guys are the best!
This ep was so raw
You guys are the best. Some of your thoughts on friendship are good, but you might be overthinking this? You make some good points, but, I see friendship as a gift that unfolds naturally. But as I say that, I am thinking also, that this present generation doesn’t really understand what friendship is, generally speaking.
Definitely not, unfortunately they're not understanding so so many things they've lost a lot
Always love this channel and podcast!
Great episode, found myself laughing allot, friends!
It would be interesting to hear some thoughts on the view of someone like St Therese who was very committed to avoiding particular friendships as a matter of spiritual discipline (friendship with Christ). These guys seem to just ignore, assume that's not a possible (possibly desirable) thing.
"Father Jacob Bertrand!"
"No."
