Kresta in the Afternoon – March 4, 2024 – Hour 1

Guest Host Marcus Peter speaks with Alex Wolaver about how music illustrates the beauty of God. Also, Mike and Alicia Hernon invite you to a special marriage retreat this weekend in Brighton and we discuss Lenten “re-conscruction” with Matt Paolelli. 

 

The Lenten Demolition of Sin

The process of tearing down a building is much like what we experience during Lent. As we engage in the Lenten practices of fasting, prayer, and almsgiving, we are hopefully examining the blueprints of our lives and finding those structurally unsound areas that would best be visited by the wrecking ball of spiritual mortification. We talk more about it with Matt Paolelli.
