The blindness of the Pharisee’s as to the identity of the true Messiah was not limited to the time of His baptism, but lasted throughout the life of Our Lord Jesus Christ.

Rather than submit themselves to God, they cling to their conception of who the Messiah should be and thereby reject the only true one.

When do these come out?
Every morning, usually at 4am Eastern Time, as a companion to the email Daily Devotional.
Why are there only a few Daily Devotionals here and in my feed? Do you delete them?
Yes, we only keep about a week’s worth of Daily Devotionals in your podcast feed – that way people can more easily find our series, like Questions with Father, Digital Dangers, the Crisis Series, etc.
But we have all of these episodes saved – if you want a copy of a specific day’s devotional, email podcast@sspx.org, let us know the date, and we’ll send you the mp3 file and the transcript.
Do you have a transcript / emailed version?
The email Daily Devotional (subscribe up top of this page) is nearly identical to the audio/podcast version. But if you want a copy of the transcript, just email us with the date you want: podcast@sspx.org
