In this episode of "Catechism in a Year," we delve into the ways humans can understand God through both reason and revelation. While our rational minds can help us acknowledge God's existence, they have their limits when it comes to fully grasping His nature. The discussion draws on insights from the Second Vatican Council and Pope Pius XII to highlight the challenges we face, including the disordered desires that stem from original sin. Additionally, it touches on the shortcomings of human language, which struggles to capture the inexpressible essence of God. Despite our words often falling short, they can still guide us toward a deeper sense of God's reality. Overall, listeners will appreciate the vital relationship between human reasoning and divine revelation in our quest to understand God.
