Today’s Topics: 1, 2, 3, 4) What is a Priest, and why does the Church call him a “spiritual father”? In a world where deception is the enemy’s greatest weapon, Christ did not leave us orphans. He established the priesthood as a gift of protection, truth, and guidance. This episode journeys from the personal analogy of inheritance to the shores of Galilee where Christ entrusted His flock to Peter, and finally into the profound sacramental mystery where a priest acts in persona Christi—in the person of Christ himself. Discover why the priesthood is not about clerical power, but about becoming a living sacrifice of love and service for the salvation of souls
Today’s Topics: 1, 2, 3, 4) Ever leave Mass wondering what just happened—or why it happened? This isn’t a theology lecture. It’s a down-to-earth look at the “source and summit,” and why showing up is about way more than obligation. We break down the Mass as spiritual dry dock: where we get repaired, refueled, and re-launched into the world with a real mission. Because the point isn’t just to go to Mass. The point is to leave it
Today’s Topics: 1, 2, 3, 4) A 12th-century prophecy is unfolding right now Saint Hildegard of Bingen foresaw the end times not as a single event, but as five distinct “beasts”—each an era defined by a specific evil. Shockingly, these eras map exactly onto modern history, from the secular revolutions of the 1870s to the moral chaos of today We are currently in the fourth era: the Age of the Black Pig This podcast decodes Hildegard’s ancient vision for a modern audience. We connect the dots between mystical symbols and historical facts, revealing how the spirit of each beast didn’t end with its epoch—it evolved, and it’s still shaping our culture, our politics, and our souls. Discover the prophecy that explains our world
Today’s Topics: 1, 2, 3, 4) Skeptics say Christianity copied its story from pagan myths. We say: Look closer, those myths aren’t copies—they are cravings. They are the scattered echoes of a promise God wrote on every human heart. Fixed Point is a podcast that explores the undeniable, worldwide anticipation of a savior and reveals how Jesus Christ is the historical, tangible answer to that ancient cry. We’ll navigate the stars the Magi followed, unpack the Church’s wisdom in baptizing culture, and learn how to spiritually fortify our lives against the chaos. In a world of shifting truths, here is your anchor
Today’s Topics: 1, 2, 3, 4) We correct course from a scattered last episode to focus on the true heart of Advent. Why does Satan hate Christmas? It all traces back to Genesis 3:15 and the birth of the Serpent-crusher. But Advent isn’t just about the past—it’s the Church’s season of dual focus. We explore the urgent scriptural call to prepare not only for the celebration of Christ’s first coming in the manger but, more importantly, for His Second Coming in glory. How does the hope of the “Last Day” shape how we live today? Join us as we connect the promise of the Protoevangelium to the proclamation of “Maranatha! Come, Lord Jesus!”
Today’s Topics: Our world often sees life as a burden, from abortion to euthanasia—a “culture of death” rooted in despair. Where can we find hope? This Advent, we turn to the only answer that breaks the darkness: the coming of Jesus Christ. We’ll explore how the logic of death permeates our age and then discover the stunning identity of the Child in the manger. He is the “firstborn of all creation”—not a creature, but the eternal Creator and Heir of all things. His birth is God’s definitive “yes” to life and our call to be bearers of His light. Join us for a journey from cultural despair to Christmas hope.
Today’s Topics: 1, 2, 3, 4) What does a medieval knight have in common with a contemplative monk? The answer lies in the forgotten history of the Brown Scapular. This episode cracks open the origin story of the Carmelites, revealing a group of men forged in the crucible of war who chose a new battlefield: the human soul. Guided by the wisdom of Saint Albert the Great of Jerusalem, they received a Rule that channeled a warrior’s loyalty, endurance, and singular focus into a life of prayer and silence. We trace their journey from the slopes of Mount Carmel to the everyday devotion of millions, asking: How can their “warrior spirituality” equip us for the battles we face today?
Today’s Topics: 1, 2, 3, 4) We stare where the world looks away: the wounds of Christ. This is a raw, relentless exploration of the Passion—the blood, the thorns, the scandal of a God who saved us by being torn apart. We pray unsettling devotions, grapple with the cost of love, and find the only map for our broken world: Written in His scars For those who believe true mercy flows from a pierced side
Today’s Topics: 1, 2, 3, 4) What does heartbreak look like for a God who is Love itself? This episode re-examines the Fall through the lens of relationship, not just rules. We’ll confront the uncomfortable truth: in Eden, we weren’t just disobedient children—we were unfaithful friends who betrayed perfect love. Understanding God as the wounded party in the Garden changes everything. It transforms the narrative from a distant myth into a deeply personal story of trust shattered and love wounded. Join us as we follow this thread from the first betrayal to the ultimate act of restorative love on the Cross, where the Victim became the Savior
Today’s Topics: 1, 2, 3, 4) Today’s Topics: The modern Catholic conversation is dominated by a paradox: we’re called to dialogue, but are we forgetting our duty to proclaim? This podcast cuts through the confusion. We provide a definitive case that Vatican II’s key documents were intended to fuel evangelization, not replace it. Moving from the Catechism to a direct analysis of the Quran, we demonstrate a strategic method: finding the “rays of truth” in other faiths to reveal the fullness of truth in Jesus Christ. We dissect Quranic passages on Abraham and Mary to show how they can be starting points, not endpoints, for the conversation. Discover why failing to evangelize isn’t just a missed opportunity—it’s a failure of charity and a direct disobedience to the Great Commission
Today’s Topics: 1, 2, 3, 4) Today’s Topics: Ever feel like Halloween is just a candy-fueled costume contest and Christmas is a stressful, month-long shopping marathon? You’re not alone. The deep, sacred roots of our favorite holidays have been buried under a mountain of marketing—but it’s time we dug them up In this episode, we’re reclaiming the true spirit of the season from the corporate playbook. We’re going on a historical deep dive to: 🕯️ HALLOWEEN’S HOLY ORIGINS: Discover how “All Hallows’ Eve” is the ancient Catholic vigil for All Saints’ Day. We’ll uncover the stunning meaning behind trick-or-treating (it was originally for prayers!), why we dressed as saints, and how the spooky fun points to a profound truth about life, death, and the Communion of Saints ⭐ CHRISTMAS BEFORE CONSUMERISM: Uncover the surprising history of how Christmas was once ILLEGAL in America and how it was reborn as a family holiday, only to be co-opted by corporations. We’ll separate the pagan myths from the theological genius and explore how the season of Advent is meant to be a time of penitent preparation, not premature celebration This isn’t about canceling the fun—it’s about rediscovering the joy, meaning, and power that made these holidays endure for centuries. Let’s replace holiday exhaustion with sacred anticipation and commercial frenzy with authentic celebration
Today’s Topics: This is not the story of triumphant kings and conquering armies. This is the story of the faithful who lived in the shadows between the promise and its fulfillment   THE BLESSED is an anthology series that weaves together the lives of the Old Testament’s forgotten and broken saints. Each season follows a different figure—like Jeremiah, the weeping prophet; Ruth, the destitute foreigner; David, the hunted king; or Hannah, the barren wife—as they endure the very realities Jesus would one day call “blessed” They are the “poor in spirit,” losing everything only to find that the Kingdom of God is their only true possession. They “mourn” deeply, their laments becoming the very prayers that open the door to divine comfort. They are the “meek,” refusing to seize God’s promises by their own sword, learning that the earth is inherited through patient trust, not brute force. They “hunger and thirst for righteousness” in a world drowning in injustice, clinging to a faithfulness they cannot yet see. Their suffering is not glamorized; it is raw, real, and faith-shaking. But in their darkest moments, they are granted fleeting assurances—dreams, whispers, moments of inexplicable peace—the “reassurance of the promise.” This is the hope of the Beatitudes, glimpsed from afar, that gives them the strength to endure another day, to choose mercy when wronged, to purity when tempted, and peace when war is easier This is the pre-history of grace. It’s the story of how the hope of the Gospel sustained the saints centuries before the Cross, proving that the way of blessing has always been the difficult, painful, and sacred path through the valley—a path that leads to the heart of God
https://rumble.com/v6zn4ao-29-sep-25-through-his-wounds-the-war-inside-preparing-for-the-beatitudes.html Today’s Topics: 1, 2, 3, 4) Before we can understand the radical solution, we must confront the fundamental problem. In this foundational episode, we explore why the Beatitudes are not just a nice poem, but an essential prescription for the human heart We delve into the reality of our fallen nature—the internal impulses of pride, anger, and desire that war within us, and the external obstacles of a broken world that constantly lead us astray. Why does the path to peace feel like an uphill battle? Why do our own best intentions so often fall short? This conversation sets the stage for everything to come, honestly assessing the human condition to reveal why we so desperately need Christ’s roadmap in the Beatitudes. Join us as we prepare the soil of our hearts to receive this transformative teaching
Today’s Topics: 1, 2, 3, 4) What if every ancient religion was worshiping the same handful of demons? This isn’t a modern conspiracy theory; it was the belief of the earliest Christians. This week, we’re making the case that the pagan pantheons were a brilliant, global deception. We’ll connect the dots between Zeus, Odin, and Ba’al, and show how they represent not different gods, but the same class of powerful, parasitic spiritual beings demanding worship. Then, we’ll break down how the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob stands in stark, oppositional contrast to them all
Today’s Topics: 1, 2, 3, 4) After the collapse of the Soviet Union, Ukraine tasted freedom — but also vulnerability. As the young nation struggled with corruption and fragile democracy, new players stepped onto the stage Western-backed organizations, wealthy financiers, and foreign political dynasties arrived, promising reform and progress. To their supporters, they were guardians of democracy. To their critics, they were infiltrators — using influence, propaganda, and money to shape Ukraine’s elections and steer its destiny But while these subtle forces worked in the shadows, Russia prepared its own answer — not with dollars or NGOs, but with tanks and annexation. From the Orange Revolution to Euromaidan, from Crimea to the full-scale invasion of 2022, Ukraine once again became the battlefield where empires old and new wrestled for control
Today’s Topics: 1, 2, 3, 4) What started as a protest at Dodger Stadium turned into a divine appointment when one attendee felt called to support the mission—and in doing so, began witnessing an incredible series of God-ordained coincidences. In this powerful episode, we explore how surrendering to divine providence deepened his faith and opened doors only God could orchestrate. From unexpected encounters to undeniable signs, this is a testimony of what happens when we let go and let God take control
