Hiep Si: Seeds to Serve

Chi Catherine and Chi Anges talk about the Holy Spirit in this week's Gospel and how Jesus refers to the Holy Spirit as the Spirit of truth. We share our experiences with "truth," what the world tells us we are, and Truth, what God tells us we are, and how Truth will always remain.

Per the request of the HTs on this week's podcast, here's some extra conversations you can listen in on between two dudes who talk about who knows what.

Anh Dennis and Anh Thomas discuss how you can spread the good news by remembering Jesus' Ascension. This moment allows us to realize we were put on this earth and descended from God to be the physical embodiment of His work.

Anh Thomas and Chi MeAnn talk about the differences in loving others, whether that be with friends, romantic relationships, or family. We also talk about how love is patient and kind (and the rest of that cheesy quote). 

Anh Dennis and Chi Catherine discuss the symbol of Jesus as the vine and us as the branches. But that's not all! We explore how we can be our own vine tenders in order to grow closer to God and offer the same love and loyalty He gives us.

Chi Catherine and Chi MeAnn talk about this week's Gospel, Jesus is the Good Shepherd. He shows unconditional love to His sheep just like how our parents love us unconditionally. Also, Jesus as the Good Shepherd provides us with the best example of leadership.

Chi MeAnn and Chi Catherine discuss another instance of Jesus appearing to His disciples where He tells them to spread the good news. As fulfilling as this is, it's also a scary thing for the disciples and for us to do. But, with small steps of courage, you can become a witness for Christ and a proud Catholic.

Chi Anges, Chi Catherine, and Anh Dennis talk about Jesus appearing to His disciples and doubting Thomas. How are we like doubting Thomas, especially when it comes to the seen and the unseen or science and faith? We dive into these seemingly conflicting spheres and attempt to bring them together.

Listen for some extra conversations and outtakes from behind the scenes of this week's episode. Things definitely aren't as smooth sailing as the final cut makes it seem . . . Enjoy!

Anh Thomas and Chi MeAnn talk about how stepping into the light and showing God all of our mistakes and flaws can also mean being truly honest with God. Sometimes it takes some deep introspection to really admit where we are in our spiritual journeys!

Chi Anges and Chi MeAnn talk about distractions within God's House, decluttering whatever doesn't *spark joy*, and expectations for ourselves. We learn how to welcome Jesus into our own houses and letting Him help clean up our messes.
