Part 2 of 2 in which Fr. Richard Simon preaches & teaches that your life should be built on what God has told you in his 06-01-08 Roman Catholic Homily for the 9th Sunday in Ordinary Time on June 1, 2008. And what has God told you? That He is the Lord your God. You will have no gods before Him. Part 2 of 2.
A fabulous commentary on the necessity of Scripture study & the contemplative life to which we are all called - religious & lay persons alike.

Insightful how Fr. Simon cites reasons why we habitually commit the sin of idolatry so often. He notes that several papal encyclicals state that Catholics have a duty to study the Bible. He states that prayer is not our talking to God (He already knows what problems we have and our needs & wants), but that prayer is listening to God. I liked how Fr. Simon said, that in essence, Jesus tells us to: "Sit down, shut up and listen!" Hippies will like the catchy moldy oldie tune at the end.
