In this episode of the "Catechism in a Year" podcast, Father Mike Schmitz reflects on a previous discussion with Dr. Mary Healy and transitions into the next phase of the series, focusing on how to live according to the Catholic faith, specifically paragraphs 1691 to 1698 of the Catechism. He emphasizes the high calling of Christians, rooted in their dignity as children of God, and the importance of living a life worthy of the Gospel through grace and the Holy Spirit. Father Mike outlines the various aspects of catechesis, including the Holy Spirit, grace, the Beatitudes, sin and forgiveness, human and Christian virtues, and the twofold commandment of charity, stressing the need for both conviction of sin and the conviction of God's mercy. He encourages listeners to embrace this challenging phase, to recognize their dependence on God's grace, and to strive to live as Christ, not being afraid to say yes to God's call.
