Nick And Rick

Great to have my friend Tynan Bollinger on the show as he talks about his upcoming book on the Wedding at Cana! Not only was I given great insight in the meaning and significance of the miracle at Cana, but I was also able to learn how to properly do wine tasting. What a gift!

Had a great time recording this episode with friend and Mines Student Payton Eggert. Payton shares how God not only brought Him to Colorado, but also to discernment of the priesthood.

In this episode we look at how relativism has permeated into our society and how it prevents us from living authentic and fulfilling lives. We also look at how relativism prevents us from truly loving the other, and why then true love is rooted in truth.

Part 2 on the series Knowing and Defending Our Faith! In this episode we hear some personal examples of how we've encountered relativism in our own lives, and how we've come to accept the teachings of our faith despite peer pressure or a lack of understanding.

In this episode we look into the importance of our Catholic Doctrine, why we accept Catholic teaching, and why it is critical that we defend, share, and learn Catholic Doctrine and teaching. We go over, and will go over, some challenges and ideologies that we may face as Catholics in living out our beliefs in contrast to the ideas of the secular world.

In the past weeks there have been attacks and threats made on churches in the west and in our own USA. Statues of saints have been defaced and torn down, either out of rage, misinformation, or to propagate a secular agenda. As Catholics we are called to defend our faith, that includes our history, our theology, our churches, and our sacred images and statues. In this episode we go over these attacks, why they're important, and what we as Catholics need and should do in response. This is also our 10th episode, so thank you all so much for listening!
