What does Rudolph The Red-Nosed Reindeer have to do with the real meaning of Christmas? We're talking about that great television program that aired way back in 1964. Do Rudolph, Hermie, Yukon Cornelius, and the Abominable Snowman have anything to teach us about the story of the Incarnation, the amazingly true story about God the Son coming to Earth as a human baby? Father Gale thinks so. (And he also shares an encouraging word from Bishop Gerald Vincke.)
The Confessions by Saint Augustine is arguably the second-most influential book in Church history. When it first appeared on the scene, it was shocking in its level of vulnerability.

(Also, Father Drew shares dark, shocking confession of his own :)
