Happy feast of St. Edmund Campion! On today’s show, Matt Swaim and Anna Mitchell talk more about this great English Jesuit martyr. Guests include Rita Heikenfeld to discuss figs in the Bible and how to prepare them for holiday entertaining, Gary Michuta on how Christianity in America went toward the lowest common denominator, and Kevin Prendergast on John the Baptist as a model for mentally preparing for Advent. Plus news, weather, sports and a whole lot more…

Suscipe Prayer of St. Ignatius of Loyola
Take, Lord, and receive all my liberty,
my memory, my understanding,
and my entire will,
All I have and call my own.
You have given all to me.
To you, Lord, I return it.
Everything is yours; do with it what you will.
Give me only your love and your grace,
that is enough for me. Amen.
