This week, Jake and Bob welcome Fr. Matthew Rolling to the show to discuss healing through the lens of Thomistic philosophy. The path to healing isn't a straight path and sometimes our experiences in life cloud our perception of reality. Fr. Matthew explains why philosophy helps us find truth and how it can redirect us when we become confused within our healing journeys. They also explore how sin affects healing, the role of our passions, and the importance of grace.   Key Points: Philosophy helps us find the truth about reality Not all questions can be answered by human reason alone The human person is a union of body and soul We should not let our experiences define our reality Our desires have the ability to lead us towards what is inherently good Grace perfects nature, it does not destroy it   Resources: The Glorious Freedom of the Children of God by Fr.
