Deacon Mike Beauvais and Msgr. Leonard Pivonka explore how truth, goodness, beauty, and love reveal God—and reorder our desires, choices, and culture. They unpack the transcendentals as real signposts that awaken the soul and call for conversion of mind and heart. Drawing on Scripture, the saints (especially Augustine), and lived experience, they distinguish fleeting pleasure from lasting joy, connect freedom with humility and the moral law, and explain why love always involves sacrifice. They address “your truth/my truth,” conscience and judgment, and the prophetic clarity of Humanae Vitae, contrasting secular confusion with the Church's perennial wisdom in worship, art, and teaching. If you're grappling with objective truth in a relativistic age, this conversation offers first principles and hopeful next steps for living them at home, work, and parish life.

Christian maturity is more than externals—it's a life that endures trials and actually changes you. John Stevenson lays out a practical roadmap for resilient discipleship and the one habit most people skip. Host Kevin Kapchinski talks with John Stevenson, Director of Campus Ministry at St. Mary's Catholic Center (College Station), about forming disciples who last beyond college. Drawing on Corps of Cadets grit and years with Saint Paul's Outreach, John explains why relational evangelization—not programs—shapes durable faith. He names the essentials: identity as a beloved son or daughter, endurance through trials, a daily prayer life, honest confession, and living in community and mission. They challenge consumer mindsets about the Mass (covenant over preferences) and press into dependence on the Holy Spirit for authentic witness. If you're a student, young professional, or parent, this gives you a clear path forward. Follow the show, rate & review in your podcast app, and share it.

Miscarriage grief is real. Zelie's Hope offers Catholic healing, a memorial Mass, and community for families in Bryan–College Station—and a model you can bring to your parish. Host Pam Marvin speaks with Dorothy Pepper and Jonathan Bertagne about this deanery-wide ministry that walks with parents after miscarriage or stillbirth. Hear how the team provides two concrete paths of care: monthly grief-support gatherings where couples can speak freely, and the Precious Life Memorial Mass with a naming rite, candles, and inscription in the parish Book of the Dead. They outline three aims—immediate care, a formal commending of each child to the Lord, and a wider cultural change that honors life and accompanies grieving families, no matter how long ago the loss.

Iconography isn't decoration—it's prayer in color. Deacon Mike Beauvais talks with artist-convert Garrett Hines on how sacred icons draw us into Christ. Garrett traces his journey from the Church of Christ to the Catholic Church and the call to “write” icons as a work of obedience and prayer. He explains what makes a hand-painted icon spiritually different from a print, how line, color, and symbolism proclaim the Gospel, and why beauty—along with truth and goodness—evangelizes the heart. You'll hear how icons serve as “windows to heaven,” how to pray with them at home and in parish life, and simple steps for beginning: choosing a patron, preparing a space, and avoiding common mistakes. Along the way, Garrett shares how the Lord used beauty to heal wounds and reorder his life toward worship. Follow the show, rate & review in your podcast app, and share this episode.

No one taught you to pray? Deacon Terry Timmons offers a simple, concrete path to a real conversation with God—and why it changes everything. Deacon Terry shares growing up Catholic, falling away, and rediscovering a personal relationship with the Lord through prayer—an encounter that led to his book No One Taught Me to Pray? …Well, Let's Fix That. He names the gap: many are taught prayers but not how to pray. Hear how an ACTS retreat sparked renewal; why silence and Eucharistic adoration matter; and how retreats and mentorship help teens, college students, and adults form a daily habit of prayer. We walk through the ACTS method (Adoration, Contrition, Thanksgiving, Supplication), the difference between knowing about God and knowing God, and how the Lord called him to the diaconate through others' encouragement.

In this RED-C Roundup, Pam Marvin speaks with Dr. Fonseca about the origins and mission of Our Lady's Healing Center (Seadrift, TX), a retreat apostolate rooted in Scripture, the Sacraments, and the Church's spiritual tradition. He explains how the Center serves people facing trauma, addiction, grief, or spiritual dryness; why forgiveness and deliverance prayer matter; and the difference between knowing about Jesus and encountering Him personally. They explore baptismal identity, the mystery of suffering, and practical tools for deeper prayer and ongoing conversion—confession, Eucharistic adoration, spiritual direction, and community support.

Religious freedom isn't private—it's truth lived in public. Deacon Mike Beauvais and Msgr. Leonard Pivonka cut through the confusion ahead of July 4. Rediscover the Catholic meaning of religious liberty: not just freedom to worship, but the grace-given duty to live the truth in family, work, and civic life. Deacon Mike and Msgr.

Catholic schools can change whole families—but only if we preach it. Fr. Mark Hamlet joins Deacon Mike on how pulpit invitations open doors for the poorest households. Fr. Hamlet—founder of Our Kids at Heart—shares his path from corporate executive to husband and father of six, widower, and priest, and the moment that launched a scholarship effort for underserved children. You'll hear how Catholic schools do more than educate: they evangelize parents, stabilize homes, heal generational wounds, and strengthen parish life when pastors invite families explicitly from the ambo. He offers practical steps for parishes and donors, why affordability and accompaniment matter, and what signals real renewal. If you're a pastor, educator, parent, or advocate, this is a call to act: if we don't preach Catholic education, the poor won't know it's possible.

In this inspiring episode of "RED-C Roundup," host Darren Sinkule shares his miraculous story of survival and faith. Eleven years ago, on May 13th, Darren nearly died but experienced a profound miracle through the intercession of the Blessed Mother, receiving a new heart after praying the Rosary. This powerful testimony sets the stage for a deep dive into Marian devotions and the significance of the month of May in the Catholic Church. Darren is joined by Sister Jeanne Thomas and Sister Mary Guadalupe of the contemplative Sisters of Mary Morning Star. Together, they explore the rich traditions of Marian feasts, focusing on Our Lady of Fatima and the Feast of the Visitation. The sisters discuss the importance of the Rosary, the Immaculate Heart of Mary, and the transformative power of total surrender to God's will. The episode features a reading from the Gospel of Luke about the Visitation, where Mary visits her cousin Elizabeth. Deacon Robin reads the passage, and the sisters provide profound reflections on Mary's humility, her immediate response to God's call, and her role as a model of faith and devotion. They highlight how the contemplative life, rooted in prayer and adoration, is accessible to all Catholics, not just those in religious orders. Listeners will gain insights into the daily life of the Sisters of Mary Morning Star, their commitment to prayer, study, and manual work, and their ongoing project to build a new chapel, workshops, and a guest house to better serve their mission. https://www.marymorningstartexas.org/ Join us for an episode filled with faith, hope, and inspiration as we delve into the heart of Catholic devotion and the example set by the Blessed Mother. #CatholicFaith #MarianDevotion #RosaryMiracles #OurLadyOfFatima #FeastOfTheVisitation #ContemplativeLife #CatholicPrayers #BlessedMother #ImmaculateHeart #TotalSurrender #CatholicPodcast #FaithJourney #CatholicCommunity #MaryMorningStar #SubscribeNow Check out our YouTube page to see great RED-C Apostolate content!
