In this episode, we're talking all about priestly fashion—cassocks included. Should a priest wear one to something like a bingo night? We all gang up on Fr. Tristan about this and talk about the meaning behind what priests wear and how it reflects our calling. We also dive into the powerful story of Peter and John healing the lame man in Acts—something the Chaldean Church celebrates on **Golden Friday**. It’s a reminder of how God still works miracles today and how important it is to stay rooted in Faith and community. 00:00 To Cassock or not to Cassock? 02:42 Practicality and Symbolism of Clerical Clothing 08:59 Cultural Shifts and the Decline of Traditional Attire 12:00 Balancing Tradition and Comfort 27:28 Youth for Truth 30:41 Golden Friday: The First Miracle in Acts 36:55 The Role of Healing in the Kingdom of God 41:33 The Apostolic Ministry Continues Christ's Work 50:03 Pizza and Wings!
