Jubilee is an ancient tradition with roots in the Old Testament beginning with Moses and the Exodus. Dr. John Bergsma and Fr. George Elliot compare the ancient themes and practices to how we can live the Jubilee year well in the Catholic Church today. Pilgrimage is a key aspect of the Jubilee from the beginning where servants, set free from their service, return home to their family. Dr. John Bergsma focuses on these themes of Jubilee years: forgiveness, freedom, family, and fullness. Listen to this episode with Fr. George and Dr. Bergsma to learn more about the roots of the Jubilee Year!

Check out Dr. Bergsma's book, Jesus and the Jubilee: The Biblical Roots of the Year of God's Favor, from the St. Paul Center. And check out the St. Paul Center's and Dr. Bergsma's Instagram: @stpaulcenter; @emmausroadpublishing; and @john.s.bergsma.

Listen to the previous episode where Fr. Brice Higginbotham of the Diocese of Houma-Thibodaux joins Fr. George to discuss the Liturgy of the Hours. Also known as the Divine Office, it is the official prayer of the Church outside of the Mass. Priests and religious are required to pray these hours at set intervals throughout the day. The Second Vatican Council encouraged the laity to pray the Liturgy of the Hours. The Hours, help individuals come to a deeper appreciation for the Psalms, scripture, and the liturgical calendar. Perhaps add the Liturgy of the Hours to your prayer routine this Lent.
