Greetings and welcome to The John 3:30 Podcast, we focus on Catholic Faith Life. The goal is to share different ways people keep their fire burning for our Catholic Faith. I have seen firsthand many people attend a Retreat or go through a traumatic Life Event and it brings them closer to their faith. For a moment. They are hungry for more. Unfortunately, not too long after, many return to their “old ways.” I firmly believe this happens because they do not know what they do not know. They may not be aware that they can attend Adoration, pray a Novena, or any other beautiful ways our Catholic Faith offers us the opportunity to grow in our Faith. My thought process is to sit down and speak with “everyday” people and have a conversation with them as to how they keep their fire burning for our Catholic Faith.  Like what you hear?

Episode 20 is here!! In this episode, I sit down and have a conversation with Nathan Garcia. A former Atheist, now a Catholic, father of two - a 3-year-old and a 2-month-old. He has a BA in Philosophy from St. Mary’s College of CA, a Masters in Theology from Boston College. He is currently in year 2 of his PhD studies at The Oblate School of Theology. What keeps Nathan’s fire burning for our Catholic Faith? He talks about how Inspiring and Faith-filled Literature help keep his flame lit. Jason learns a new word! Hagiography. Nathan also talks about getting involved with the Church and encourages other to do the same by finding a way to get involved that draws to your talents. Later in the episode, Nathan talks about experimenting with different types of prayer. Nathan gives a great explanation of Lectio Divina. A BIG Thank you to Dr. Jeff Vista, Executive Producer!!
