About
Join Greg Waters and Father Jeremy Davis as they explore the powerful, personal, and often overlooked meaning behind sacrifice—from the burnt offerings of the Old Testament to the self-offering of Jesus Christ to the daily sacrifices of Christian life. This isn’t a dry intellectual study. It’s a journey through Scripture, ancient tradition, and real life—an invitation to rediscover sacrifice as neither inherently painful nor outdated, but rich, heart-felt, and transformative. If you’ve ever wondered why God delights in sacrifice—or how it can change the way you live—this podcast is for you. Fr.
