I have been listening to Slaking Thirsts for six months and I find myself eager to hear the homilies given almost everyday. The homilies bring an inspired spiritual life to me and I find great truth in them. I feel God speaking to me directly through the words and I am so grateful for the Fathers and the time and importance they give this podcast. Amen
