We will explore the 12th-century Cistercian abbot's beautiful teaching on spiritual friendship, examining how the bonds we form with one another can become a school of charity and a pathway to deeper union with God.

In this reflection, Mother Cecilia will share with us the secrets of the monastic life in keeping ourselves in a constant state of prayer even while tending to the necessities of this life.

We will examine Jesus’ Last Supper Discourse to see how the Mystical Supper flows from the Jewish Passover and sacrifices and how it draws us into a much deeper communion with God.

Join Fr. Stephen Freeman for this evening's discussion and learn how best to minister to those who are about to meet the Lord.

  • Swords and Serpents

    I watched this study three times. Took so many excellent notes. This was by far the most concise and interactive study I have ever done. I binged it several times, and am now able to tell the story of salvation history, thanks to Fr Hezikiahs great method for memorization.

  • I want my Bible with me at all times now!

    I’m taking my time to go seriously through the Swords and Serpents Bible study. Now I want my Bible with me any where I go. Thank you Father Hezekias for this amazing study. I love the idea of reading the Bible with the idea of seeing the Tapestry of the story of salvation. I am learning so much and I am so excited.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Pray Always
Q: I'm always wondering how to get a rule of life as a mom. How do you balance prayer time with three small kids and daily duties?
Do what you can, start with a small commitment (even 15 minutes in the morning), and use aspirational prayers like 'Jesus, I love you' or 'Give me patience now,' to maintain constant contact with God while meeting family responsibilities.
Pray Always
Q: Hi, Mother. I have questions about the workings of the Divine Office. Do you do an Office of Readings? And when you sing or chant the Psalms, is it always the same vocal setting or does that vary?
The Office of Readings is termed matins and is observed in the monastery with mornings readings; most of the other offices are chanted in the traditional way with recto tono on some days and full antiphonal chanting on others, depending on the liturgical calendar and specific office.
Mystical Supper
Q: Do you think Jesus ate the Passover lamb at the Last Supper?
There is certainty about Jesus presenting himself as the new Passover lamb, but whether he actually ate the flesh of the lamb at the meal is not definitively stated; the emphasis is on the act of instituting the sacrificial remembrance and the new covenant.
Keeping Vigil
Q: What advice do you have for someone who feels guilt about not being at a loved one's bedside?
Bring the cross into prayer, acknowledge human limitations, seek comfort from God, and remember that presence can be spiritual even if bodily presence was lacking; forgiveness and grace are available.
Keeping Vigil
Q: What role does hospice play in end-of-life care compared to hospitals?
Hospice focuses on comfort and quality of life, while hospitals pursue curative treatment; good hospice care avoids unnecessary suffering and respects the patient's dignity and wishes.
