Podcasts about Adoration

As we continue our Steubenville SOUTH Summer Series, Kristi sits down with three different guests whose stories all point to the same truth: God works through willing hearts.First, Jennifer and Carmen share how a simple invitation from their daughters grew into a thriving youth group in Iota, Louisiana. What started with just four teens became nearly sixty students through unexpected generosity, faithful leadership, and a community that rallied behind the next generation.Next, Fr. Tom Wilson joins us from Minnesota to share his incredible vocation story—from CPA to Catholic priest—and offers wisdom for anyone discerning God's call on their life. He also reflects on why Steubenville conferences continue to be such a powerful launching point for young Catholics.Finally, high school student Dale Simon shares what Steubenville has meant to his own faith journey, the impact of Adoration, and why he believes every teen should experience a weekend like this.In this episode: How one "yes" transformed a parish youth ministry  God's provision through an entire community  A priest's journey from accounting to the altar  Why Steubenville continues to impact generations  A teen's perspective on encountering Christ in Adoration  Encouragement for anyone discerning God's call Support the show

Psalm 147 // Prayer is not simply a duty, but a delight. Adoration is the way we move in prayer towards the truth, goodness, and beauty of God.

After visiting Rome and exploring its churches, basilicas, religious art, and historic Christian sites, I came away with five important observations about Roman Catholicism, Protestantism, and the state of Christianity in Rome today.In this video, I examine the continued role of indulgences in Roman Catholic theology and practice, the prominence of Mary in Catholic devotion, and the way many of Rome's churches can feel more like museums than places of Christian worship. I also consider whether Rome is truly as Christian as it appears and why the theological issues raised during the Protestant Reformation still matter for Christians today.At the same time, Rome possesses a remarkably rich Christian history. From the witness of the early church to the legacy of Christian art, architecture, martyrs, and theologians, Rome remains an important place for understanding church history. The goal of this video is not simply to criticize, but to evaluate what I observed through the lens of Scripture and the gospel. What do you think?

Planning your homeschool year can easily become another task you feel like you have to carry all on your own. But what if the very first step isn't choosing curriculum or making a schedule? What if it's simply sitting with the Lord. In this week's short episode, I'm sharing why the posture of receptivity changes everything when it comes to planning your homeschool and your family life. Before we make our plans, we have to make room for God's. I'll also share a personal "love letter" that came from time spent with Jesus in Adoration, which I believe is a message of encouragement for every Catholic homeschool mom who has ever felt the weight of trying to get it all right, and that it's all riding on your shoulders. If you've been carrying fears about your children's future, doubting yourself, or feeling overwhelmed by the responsibility of homeschooling, I pray these words remind you that you were never meant to carry this alone. Grab your earbuds and accept an invitation to pray more than you plan, trust more than you strive, and let the Lord build what He is calling your family to become in: A Love Letter to the Mother Planning Her Homeschool Year. Plan Your Year with the Lord Here!

Your Prayers Are Never Wasted 1 John 5:14–15 “And this is the boldness we have in him, that if we ask anything according to his will, he hears us. And if we know that he hears us in whatever we ask, we know that we have obtained the requests made of him.” I love this verse because God is reminding us that we can trust Him. He reminds us that if we ask anything according to His will, He hears us. If we know that He hears us, then we know we have obtained the requests we made of Him. I don't know about you, but I can get caught up in the words "according to His will." I have asked the Lord for many things that I don't think He has given me. It can be frustrating when we pray for someone or ask for something we believe is good, and it seems like God isn't listening. I know God's ways are higher than our ways and His thoughts are greater than our thoughts, but that doesn't always make it easier to understand. If you've ever struggled with this, let me share what has helped me. Have you ever had a child, niece, nephew, or friend's child ask for something they were convinced they needed? They had thought it through and believed it was the best thing for them, but you could see it wasn't because you knew where that choice would lead. For example, imagine a teenager begging to drop out of school because they're tired of the work and already have a job lined up. They think it's the best decision, but you know it will limit so many opportunities in the future. Because you love them, you say no. I think this is often how God answers our prayers. Good thing He doesn't give us everything we ask for because, just like children, we sometimes ask for things that aren't truly good for us. We think we know what we want, but God sees the whole picture. We may pray for a new job, only to later discover that job would have required constant travel or an unhealthy work environment. God protects us from countless things we never even know about because He is a good Father. I heard a song on the way to Adoration this morning—and you know how much I love songs. It's called "Somebody Prayed" by Crowder. The song is all about the power of prayer and reminds us that many of the blessings we experience today are the result of someone faithfully praying for us. It also reminds us that God hears every prayer, even when we don't immediately see the results. The song begins: Every night there by your bed You fold your hands and bow your head Throwing out another prayer in faith When you're wondering if He's hearing you Look at me, I'm living proof I'm only right where I am today Because somebody prayed These lyrics remind us that when we pray and do not see results, we can look at those around us and be confident that if God answers their prayers, He will answer ours, too. I think it is vital to remember that the answers to our prayers may not look like we want them to and may not come in the timing we want them to. I like how Crowder can realize that the reason he is where he is today is because his mom prayed for him a lot. So I hit my knees 'cause I've Seen all Heaven move (don't matter if you hit rock bottom My God pick you up when you call Him.) I pray, "Father, please" 'cause I've Seen what He can do (don't matter if the storm cloud coming My God come through when you call Him) I love this verse too because it says that it doesn't matter if you hit rock bottom because God will pick you up when you call Him. This reminds us that we are never too far down for God to pick us back up again. It also says it doesn't matter if the storm cloud is coming because God will come through when we call Him. Crowder says he has seen all heaven move, and he has seen what our heavenly Father can do. You might be in a storm right now, or you might be at your lowest point yet. Either way, you can rest assured that when you call on the Lord, He is going to answer that call. He is going to lift you up out of that pit or get you safely through that storm. That is just who He is. If you wonder if this is true, look around you at all the people you know who are struggling, or the ones who were struggling and have made it through to the other side.  They were not alone. God helped them, and if he helped them, he can help you too! These hands have no power There ain't an hour He don't come through That's why when mountains move, I say "Looks like somebody prayed” This verse is reminding us that we can do nothing without God. He is our source of power. He is our Savior. This is why, when something amazing happens in our lives, we should automatically know that someone was praying for us. Our default should be to thank God and to thank whoever was praying for us. Sometimes we think that because we didn't pray, then it wasn't God who helped us. However, there are so many people praying all the time. There were many saints who would send up prayers for anyone who needed them. Or they would pray for those who had no one else to pray for them. You might have a whole army of people praying for you, and yet you might not even know it. For instance, when someone asks me for prayer I usually ask my parents to also pray for them because I know my parents are mighty prayer warriors. I also ask my prayer group to pray, my Encounter Ministry fellow students, and the prayer line at my church. Then sometimes I would also add their request to these three online prayer requests websites, one of which is the Lourdes website. Do you see how someone could have a whole army of people praying for them and not even know it? For the child of God that's far from home The one who thinks they're too far gone I'm throwing out another prayer in faith (prayer in faith) Worn-out altars, tear-stained pews Still I won't give up on you I believe that anything can change When somebody prays I love this verse because he is talking to anyone who feels like they are far from home. Anyone who feels like they are too far gone. Then he tells them that he is praying for them. We all need to be praying for those who are far from home and think they are too far gone. There is no too far gone with the Lord. He is always willing to take us back. He is always waiting for us to realize that and to come home. I love it when he says he won't give up on us because he believes that anything can change when somebody prays. This is an important thing for us all to believe. It is so true. Anything can change when somebody prays. The enemy often tries to make us believe that our situation is too bad and that there is no solution. He tries to convince us that we don't need to pray because there isn't anything God can do for anyone. There isn't anything anyone can do. This is ridiculous! God can do anything! We might not see a way out, we might not think things can get better, but God can always make a way, even when we can't see how. It is always worth it to say a prayer. It can make all the difference in the world. Sometimes God is just waiting for you to ask. He is waiting for you to invite Him into it all. Why wouldn't we want God to be in all of it? I've seen miracles come from feeble words I've seen hospital rooms turned into cathedrals I've seen freedom come to the prisoner You can't tell me that prayer don't work The first line says, “I've seen miracles come from feeble words.” Do you know why I love this? I love it because it reminds us that we don't have to know what to say. We don't have to pray these long, eloquent prayers. We don't have to ask for the exact thing or say the exact right words in order for our prayers to be answered. It's not like in all those movies about making a wish on a genie in a bottle. If you don't get the wording perfectly, then something bad happens. God is not like that. We don't have to know the perfect thing to say. We just have to call upon his name and ask him for what we want. It goes on to say, “I've seen hospital rooms turned into cathedrals.” I think what he means by this is that hospital rooms can be a powerful place for prayer. Sitting by a loved one's bedside can prompt people to pray more. It can also help us to be bold and ask for more from the Lord. Desperation to save our loved ones can be a powerful motivator. He also says, I've seen freedom come to the prisoner.  This is another great result of prayer. You might know someone who is stuck in their past. They may be an actual prisoner in jail, or they may be a prisoner to guilt, shame, and unforgiveness. Either way, prayers can free them from their prison. I have seen it happen many times!! The song ends with: So every night there by your bed When you fold your hands and bow your head Not a single word you've ever said in vain 'Cause He hears everything I like this verse too because it reminds us that not a single word you've ever said is in vain. When we pray to God, He hears us. We can be confident in this, just as the scripture verse for today reminds us. God hears it all, whether you are in church praying or you are crying out to him in your car. Wherever you are, no matter how far gone you think you are, He always hears every word of it, and none of it was said in vain. He hears you, and He will answer your prayers according to his will and according to His timing. www.findingtruenorthcoaching.comCLICK HERE TO DONATECLICK HERE to sign up for Mentoring CLICK HERE to sign up for Daily "Word from the Lord" emailsCLICK HERE to sign up for my newsletter & receive a free audio training about inviting Jesus into your daily lifeCLICK HERE to buy my book Total Trust in God's Safe Embrace

An Adoration and A Special Rosary with Reflections Pilgrimage Take a special spiritual pilgrimage and join several dozen pilgrims in Eucharistic Adoration and the praying of the Rosary. Each decade of the Rosary is accompanied by thoughtful reflections designed to deepen your meditation and prayer. At the beginning of this pilgrimage, St. Louis de Montfort speaks about what he considered the single greatest mistake made by many who pray the Rosary. Listen carefully to his words and discover how this timeless wisdom can enrich your own devotion. As the pilgrims at the Shrine kneel before the Blessed Sacrament exposed in the Monstrance, we invite you to create a prayerful atmosphere in your own home. If possible, place a crucifix or cross nearby as you pray the Rosary. You may also wish to light a candle, provided it can be done safely, as a visible reminder of Christ's presence and the light of faith. For those who wish to proceed directly to specific portions of the pilgrimage: Gospel and Homily: approximately 13:40 Rosary and Reflections: approximately 24:27 --------------------------------------------------------------------------- This bilingual evening of Eucharistic Adoration and Rosary at the Shrine . . . . . . centers on the Blessed Virgin Mary as the one who leads souls to Jesus Christ, the source of all grace. Drawing from the Gospel of the Annunciation (Luke 1:26-38), the Homily reflects on Mary's title as “Full of Grace” and presents her as the Mediatrix through whom Christ entered the world and through whom believers continue to encounter Him. The Homily also emphasizes St. Louis de Montfort's teaching that Christians should begin the Rosary by identifying the particular grace they most need, entrusting their intentions to Our Lady with confidence. Against the backdrop of gathering darkness, the candlelit prayer becomes a symbol of faith, hope, and Christ's victory over sin and death. A recurring theme throughout the evening is Mary's role as the “Star of the Sea,” guiding pilgrims safely through the changing seas of life toward the eternal harbor of salvation. The Rosary includes reflections before each decade. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Art Work Madonna di Foligno: Italian Painter: Raphael: 1511 --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Why was this Painting Selected: Mary appears enthroned in glory with the Christ Child while serving as an intercessor between heaven and earth. The painting beautifully reflects the homily's theme of Mary as Mediatrix of Grace, bringing souls to Christ. On the left are the kneeling are St. Francis of Assisi and St. John the Baptist.

Many Catholics have lost their sense of eternity. And the silence on death, judgment, heaven, and hell has left souls unprepared for what awaits them.Fr. Fasching delivers a stark warning to a Church that has abandoned its most essential mission: preaching the reality of eternal consequences. The Eucharist, he insists, is the anchor of the Christian life. Adoration is not optional piety, it is the highest activity of man, the foundation of all true action. Without it, everything else collapses.Fr. Fasching goes on to address the modern presumption that most people are saved. Christ's warning that "the road is narrow" is not a metaphor. "Most people are choosing hell," he says, not as spectacle, but as realism. A call to conversion. A summons to repentance.Suffering, he reminds us, is not evidence of God's absence. It is proof of His closeness. The cross is not an interruption of God's plan—it is the plan. And the choice before every Catholic is stark: comfort or sanctity. The world offers one. The Church offers the other. The faithful must decide which they will pursue.HELP SUPPORT WORK LIKE THIS: https://give.lifesitenews.com/?utm_source=SOCIAL U.S. residents!

➡️ DEUXIÈME SERMON : Une pensée distraite peut paraître banale dans la vie ordinaire. Elle cesse de l'être lorsque nous nous tenons devant Dieu pour l'adorer, l'écouter et lui parler. Dans ce deuxième message de la série, nous nous attarderons à la gravité des pensées distraites pendant le culte. Nous aborderons la gravité sous deux angles: le tort que nous nous faisons à nous-mêmes et l'offense que nous faisons à Dieu. PLAN: 1. Le danger de s'éloigner de Dieu 2. Le danger d'offenser Dieu - Ce que Dieu voit - Ce que Dieu veut - Ce que Dieu est QUESTIONS: 1. Pourquoi les pensées distraites nous semblent-elles banales? 2. Que peuvent révéler les pensées distraites en tant que symptôme? 3. Que peuvent causer les pensées distraites dans la vie spirituelle? 4. Pouvons-nous causer un tort ou un avantage à Dieu? 5. Qu'est-ce que cela change pour notre adoration que Dieu voit tout? 6. Quel genre d'adoration Dieu réclame-t-il de nous? 7. Pourquoi les distractions sont-elles particulièrement graves lorsqu'elles surviennent pendant le culte?

The Age of AttentionThere is a strange paradox about our moment in history. We have more information about God than any generation. Millions of sermons online. Bible apps in our pockets. Podcasts. Books. YouTube channels. Social media theologians. Never has knowledge been more accessible.And yet—Never has awe, wonder, inspiration felt more absent.The fallout of postmoderism is not merely that people doubt truth—it is that we have lost the capacity for wonder. The world has become flattened. Everything isanalyzed, deconstructed, explained, and reduced to its component parts. We know more information than any generation in history, yet we often experience less awe. We can explain a sunset through atmospheric physics, map the neural pathways of love, and measure the age of distant galaxies, but explanation is not the same as amazement. Knowledge has increased, but wonder has diminished.This has deeply affected our life with God. We have facts about God but rarely stand before Him in holy astonishment. We scroll past beauty. We dissect Godrather than adore Him. And in a distracted culture, the battle for your soul is largely a battle for your attention.When Jesus teaches us to pray: “Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name…”He is not merely teaching us to say nice things about God.He is teaching us how to reorder our attention, which will reorder our loves. Because what we worship shapes what we become.

5.24.2026 - We scatter today with a ❤️ of adoration for our King - Praise God for Who He Is - Ps. 47 by Anacostia River Church

Dr. John A. Cuddeback visits in hour one to discuss "The Intentional Household...", reconnecting families through: shared work, true leisure, and the importance of multigenerational living. T's Two Sense looks at forgiveness and it's importance in our lives. Plus, Chris McCarthy talks about Adoration Sodality at the Shrine of the Most Blessed Sacrament, and Nicholas Senz of the Kolbe Academy tells us why an authentic Catholic education is important in this age of A.I.

Today’s Topics: 1) Gospel – Matthew 5:20-26 – Jesus said to His disciples:  “I tell you, unless your righteousness surpasses that of the scribes and Pharisees, you will not enter into the Kingdom of heaven. “You have heard that it was said to your ancestors, You shall not kill; and whoever kills will be liable to judgment. But I say to you, whoever is angry with his brother will be liable to judgment, and whoever says to his brother, Raqa, will be answerable to the Sanhedrin, and whoever says, ‘You fool,’ will be liable to fiery Gehenna. Therefore, if you bring your gift to the altar, and there recall that your brother has anything against you, leave your gift there at the altar, go first and be reconciled with your brother, and then come and offer your gift. Settle with your opponent quickly while on the way to court with him. Otherwise your opponent will hand you over to the judge, and the judge will hand you over to the guard, and you will be thrown into prison. Amen, I say to you, you will not be released until you have paid the last penny.” Memorial of Saint Barnabas, Apostle Saint Barnabas, pray for us! Bishop Sheen quote of the day 2, 3) Terry speaks on the importance of Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament and how that adoration is good four our soul 4) Oscar Delgado joins Terry to discuss his new movie: Sacred Heart – His Reign Has No End

In this fascinating and profound episode, we dive into the deep mysteries of St. John's Gospel with John Johnson, the founder of Patmos Hosting and the Albertus Magnus Institute (and Joshua Charles's sponsor into the Catholic Church). Johnson reveals that St. John was likely a student of Aristotle, and used his most powerful rhetorical techniques to communicate the most sublime truths about Christ, the Eucharist, the betrayal of Judas, and the authority of Peter.You can read John Johnson's biography here: https://magnusinstitute.org/senior-fellows/john-johnson/VISIT OUR WEBSITEhttps://eternalchristendom.com/BECOME A PATRON OF THE GREAT TRADITIONAs a non-profit, you can support our mission with a tax-deductible gift.

➡️ NOUVELLE SÉRIE: Adorer Dieu sans distraction Aimer Dieu de tout notre coeur et de toute notre pensée est le plus grand commandement et devoir chrétien (Mt 22.37 ; Mc 12.30 ; Lc 10.27). Cet amour requiert que notre adoration ne soit pas affectée par des pensées distraites et une attention dissipée. Dieu veut que nous ne soyons pas seulement présents de corps pour son culte, mais présent de coeur (És 29.13). Dans cette petite série de quatre messages, nous aborderons le problème des pensées vagabondes pendant le culte rendu à Dieu et pourquoi elles déshonorent Dieu. Nous réfléchirons à l'importance d'amener "toute pensée captive à l’obéissance de Christ" (2 Co 10.5) et comment y arriver. Cette série s'inspirera de l'ouvrage du pasteur puritain Richard Steele (1629–1692) _Remedy for Wandering Thoughts_ (publié en français sous le titre _Si facilement distrait_ et offert gratuitement ici) ➡️ PREMIER SERMON : Dans ce premier message de cette courte série, nous introduirons le problème des pensées distraites dans l'adoration. Nous commencerons par définir la nature du problème puis nous identifierons les principales sources qui causent la distraction. Nous terminerons avec l'appel que Dieu nous adresse à devenir des adorateurs entiers. PLAN: 1. La nature du problème 2. Les sources et les formes de distractions 3. L'appel à adorer Dieu sans distraction QUESTIONS: 1. Quelle est la nature du problème avec les pensées distraites pendant l'adoration? 2. Comment et pourquoi le diable utilise-t-il les distractions? 3. Comment nos pensées sont-elles une sources de distraction? 4. Comment sommes-nous distraits par nos sens? 5. Pourquoi et comment devons-nous apprendre à adorer Dieu sans distraction? Lectures complémentaires: • Convocation — Psaume 95-96 • Réponse - Dt 6.4-5 & Ph 3.3 Prédicateur: Pascal Denault

On the Feast of Corpus Christi the Church turns her heart to Jesus's real presence in the Blessed Sacrament.   A marvel of love, in the Eucharist the infinite enters the finite, the Creator his creation and the invisible the visible real.  Adoration, devotion, and gratitude should mark our response to this great mystery of our Faith.

Patrick launches into listeners' heartfelt questions about faith, anger, liturgical customs, and Catholic identity, peppering the conversations with wisdom, humor, and personal stories. One moment Patrick unfolds advice about handling irritation over “organized religion,” while the next, he responds to a Marine’s anxieties about spiritual witness among friends. Quirky banter with Cyrus seeps in between weighty reflections, all while Patrick threads practical suggestions for tithing, grappling with prayer, and recognizing unity even when church customs unexpectedly shift. Carmen (email) - Is it a sin to get angry or upset when people say they don’t like “organized” religion? (00:41) Marcin (email) - Why is everyone always beating up on Catholics? I just don’t get it, why are we so hated. (05:22) Zach - Going into the Marines Corps. with a buddy who isn’t very religious. How can I bring him to the faith? (12:33) Maria (email) - I travel a lot for work/fun, sometimes even up to 4 different dioceses per month for Sunday mass! Which parish do I give my weekly tithe to? When I encounter a situation at a parish in which the Eucharist appears to be treated illicitly (for example leavened bread or missing essential rubrics) should I still receive the communion or hold off? (18:05) Ruben (email) – Were the Armenians the first practicing Christians? (29:44) Rick (email) - If God allowed you to go back in time and be an eyewitness to any one of Jesus' many miracles, which one would you choose and why? (32:37) Paul (email) - I feel like I compartmentalize my prayer: Praying to God at church (Mass, Adoration), formal prayers at home, and my informal conversation with God throughout the day. But it feels like I’m praying to three different Gods. How do you merge these? (39:37) David - What are the differences between the new mass said now vs. the pre-Vatican II mass? (45:42)

How has God changed your life during Rise Up? From Ash Wednesday to Pentecost, we have journeyed together through 96 days of prayer, reflection, Scripture, and encouragement. In this final Rise Up video, Fr. Jonathan Meyer invites us to reflect on the fire God has lit in our hearts and asks an important question:

Send us Fan MailIf your family's Bible time feels like a chore chart and prayer feels like a performance, you're not alone and you're not stuck. We sit down with our Boys Ranch ministry team to get brutally practical about spiritual disciplines for kids and how to teach them without turning faith into pressure.We discuss: spiritual disciplines are practices that shape a real relationship with God, not hoops that earn love.We walk through what age-appropriate family Bible reading can look like from pre-K to high school. For little ones, we talk picture Bibles, story-driven rhythms like Advent, and making a child's first Bible a big deal. For elementary and middle school, we lean into narratives and curiosity with two prompts that change everything: “I notice” and “I wonder.” For teens, we name the temptation to chase “relevance” and instead encourage you to stay the course, let the Bible be central, and create a safe place for real questions.Then we shift to teaching children to pray. We break down healthy, real prayer as a conversation with God, including listening, not just talking. We share easy frameworks like the Taco Prayer acronym (Thanksgiving, Adoration, Confession, Others, Self) and a simple three-part prayer any family can use. Along the way, we tackle common misconceptions like treating God as a genie, assuming silence means God is absent, and trying to force consistency through guilt instead of grace.If you want practical Christian parenting tools for faith formation that actually work on busy days, press play.

Where have you encountered the presence of God?   In today's Rise Up reflection, Fr. Jonathan Meyer invites us to reflect on the places, people, and moments where God became deeply real to us.   The presence of Jesus matters.   From Bethlehem… to the Cross… to the empty tomb… to the Eucharist… God continually makes Himself present to us.   Today, take time to reflect:   ➡️ Where have I encountered God's presence? ➡️ Who helped lead me there? ➡️ What did that experience feel like?   Maybe it was: ✝️ at Mass

In this episode, my wife, Pamela Rivera, joins me for a heartfelt conversation about how motherhood changes when our prayer life and interior life begin to deepen. Pam encourages listeners to embrace humility, rediscover the beauty of silence, and make space for the Lord to speak in the quiet moments of Adoration. Sometimes what our souls need most is less noise and more time in God's presence. In this conversation, we explore: Why pride stands in opposition to the feminine genius How trust in God's providence grows when we take courageous leaps of faith Whether marriage is more like a football team or a track team—and why the difference matters Plus, I sit down with my own mother to ask one simple question: “What was I like as a kid?” We would love it if you could leave a written review on Apple and share with your friends!

Are you willing to be hated?   Jesus says in today's Gospel:   “If the world hates you, realize that it hated me first.”   Following Jesus does not always mean comfort, popularity, or approval.   Sometimes faithfulness means:   ➡️ standing for truth ➡️ defending life ➡️ protecting marriage and family ➡️ obeying God instead of culture   And not everyone will like that.   In today's Rise Up reflection, Fr. Jonathan Meyer reminds us that Christians are called to remain faithful even when the world disagrees.   But we are not alone.   When the world rejects you, Christ remains with you.   That's why prayer matters. That's why Adoration matters. That's why Christian community matters.   Stay faithful. Stay rooted in Christ. Do not be afraid.   Happy Easter.   #RiseUp #Catholic #Faith #Truth #Jesus #Prayer #Easter #ChristianLife

Check out this great show from April 16, 2026 Father Michael-Joseph Paris joins Patrick to discuss Silence (4:15) no time for silence and wide is it so important? (12:53) Why is silence difficult for us to enter into sometimes? (16:26) Agnes - What is a suggestion for a teacher or mother with a house full of kids? How does she find silence in the middle of all that noise? (19:26) Break 1 (21:13) Visual Noise (24:36) Sonya - Last week, that quiet voice said come down to the lake (here in Maine). I heard the voice again asking me to come to the lake. Later, the voice said 'now.' I went down to the lake and all quiet around. Sat there for 10 minutes and told God I was there. He told me 'Be still and know that I am God.' Saw the stillness of the winter beauty and lost myself in His presence. I was running from being busy for so long. (29:49) Kathy - I've been to silent retreats before. I brought books and stuff. Went to dinner and it was like all were mad at each other because nobody was talking. I worked in schools and son and friends would come over. Told kids to go outside while I had my coffee. Mom used to get up early. Have to arrange time for it. Email – Mary keeps the radio off while driving. (36:53) Marie - Go to the woods. Find a tree, bush, flower, listen to a bird. Just check out and be in nature...He is there. (39:02) Break 2 (40:29) Michelle - It is so precious. Adoration chapel...people wonder what should they do when they're there. Just present yourself to the Lord. With me, it's hiking in the woods. Get tired enough to sit down and breathe and listen to mother nature. I need nature to bring the sense of awe. (45:15) What is Mental prayer? Matt - The silence that people have is something I strive for. This show has been really helpful to get to that.

We open the show on Oz Pearlman — the mentalist who's been showing up on every podcast and somehow keeps reading minds for a living. Adam just caught him on Modern Wisdom, where Pearlman walked the host through his exact internal thought process — what he picked, what he second-guessed, what he settled on — like he had a pipeline straight into the man's head. Adam now rearranges his schedule whenever Oz pops up on a screen. So consider this a formal invitation: Oz, come drink whiskey with us. Tell us our favorite bourbon. We'll pour the Glencairns.Speaking of — this week we're sipping High West Campfire. A blend of straight rye, straight bourbon, and blended malt scotch. Yes, scotch. Peat smoke gives way to orange zest, English toffee, toasted brioche, salted caramel, leather, dark chocolate. It works.Then Adam gives an update on baby Mary. New listeners — Adam's daughter was born very early with a heart condition and a long list of complications. She's been in the NICU since birth. This past weekend was her actual due date, and after a long string of holding-the-line W's, she's turned a meaningful corner. Off the paralytic. Better oxygen, blood pressure, heart rate. Swelling coming down. Still a long road — likely nine to twelve more months in the NICU. Adam and Lady Haylee are deeply grateful. Keep them in your prayers. Both of them.Quick note from Dave: Good Shepherd Sunday in Tulsa. The pastor handed out cards and asked every man in the pews to write down the name of a young man who'd make a good priest. A thousand men doing that work together. Tulsa's per-capita priest count is already top five in the country — and we still need more.Then we get into it. The King in the Tabernacle.If the Eucharist is just a symbol, the Catholic Church is a 2,000-year deception. Flannery O'Connor's line — to hell with it — is the right one. But we don't believe it's a symbol. We believe what Christ said. Body, blood, soul, and divinity. The continuation of the Incarnation, until the end of the age.David's been reading The Real Presence by St. Peter Julian Eymard (Cor Jesu Press). Eymard is the patron of Eucharistic adoration — one homily in him, gave it for a lifetime. And one chapter lays out a battle plan for how to actually spend a holy hour. Not just sit there. Spend it.The four ends of worship — ACTS: Adoration, Contrition, Thanksgiving, Supplication. Eymard breaks the hour into four fifteen-minute sections. First fifteen: adoration. You don't walk into the royal court making demands. You fall on your knees and salute the King. Second fifteen: thanksgiving — for yourself, your family, the world. Thank Him for instituting the Eucharist at all. (Most of us forget that one.) Third fifteen: reparation. Stand in the gap. For your sins, for the world's, especially for the sacrileges against the Eucharist itself. Fourth fifteen: petition. Now you can ask. Ask large graces. Ask for the triumph of His Church. By the time you get there, you're asking for the right things.We talk about the difference between knowing the Eucharist is Christ and acting like it. You don't accidentally get a six-pack at 40. You don't accidentally get holy, either. We're body-soul composites — what we do with our bodies forms our souls. That's why we genuflect. Dress for Mass. Kneel after Communion. St. Charbel had two modes: preparing to receive, or thanking God for having received. The bar he set is the right one.We close with Eymard's image of the guard of honor. Jesus has made Himself vulnerable in the host. Heart pierced. Defenseless. Waiting on His men to show up and adore Him. That's the work. Guard duty. Get to adoration. Change your life.Raise your glass.TOPICS COVEREDOz Pearlman the mentalist — and Adam's open invitation to come on the showBaby Mary's update: off the paralytic, turning a corner after months in the NICUWhy prayer for Lady Haylee matters as much as prayer for MaryGood Shepherd Sunday in Tulsa — a thousand men writing down names of future priestsWhy the Eucharist is the reason to be Catholic — and why "to hell with it" is the right answer if it's a symbolSt. Peter Julian Eymard, the patron of Eucharistic adoration, and his book The Real PresenceWhy the real presence is the continuation of the IncarnationThe actual battle plan for a holy hour: ACTS in fifteen-minute sectionsWhy thanksgiving in adoration is the most perfect act of loveReparation — standing in the gap for sacrileges against the EucharistWhy your petitions get sharper after you've adored, thanked, and made reparationKnowing the Eucharist is Christ vs. actually acting like itWhy you're not going to accidentally get holy any more than you're going to accidentally get a six-pack at 40Body-soul composites: how genuflection, posture, and dress shape the interior lifeSt. Charbel's two modes — preparing to receive Communion, or thanking God for having receivedLady Pamela stopping at every chapel she passed — and why that 60 seconds was worth more than Adam realizedDon't let the perfect be the enemy of the excellentThe guard of honor: Jesus exposing Himself in the host, depending on His men to defend and adore HimBourbon of the week: High West Campfire — the rare rye/bourbon/scotch blendREFERENCED IN THIS EPISODEBooks:The Real Presence by St. Peter Julian Eymard (Cor Jesu Press)Saints:St. Peter Julian EymardSt. CharbelMother Angelica (and her new shoes at adoration)People & previous guests:Joey Spencer — on Christ becoming the fruit hanging on a treeJeff Cavins — on talking to Jesus like He's actually thereFlannery O'Connor / Dorothy Day — "If it's a symbol, to hell with it"Oz Pearlman (mentalist, Modern Wisdom podcast)Lady Haylee MinihanLady Pamela NilesConcepts & references:The four ends of worship: Adoration, Contrition, Thanksgiving, Supplication (ACTS)The National Eucharistic CongressGood Shepherd SundayEucharistic adorationThe continuation of the IncarnationSubstance and accidents (Aristotelian-Thomistic metaphysics of the Eucharist)SPONSOR BLOCKSponsor: Select International Tours — selectinternationaltours.comWhen Adam and Dave decided to lead their first pilgrimage, the same name kept coming up: Select International Tours.

This episode explores how Perugia functioned as a dynamic center of Renaissance art and how Perugino emerged as its most influential painter. It considers the city's political, religious, and economic structures as active forces shaping artistic production, while examining how workshop practices, patronage, and regional identity intersected with broader Florentine influences.At the heart of the discussion is Perugino's distinctive style—marked by clarity, harmony, and compositional balance—and the role his workshop played in spreading that visual language across central Italy. The episode ultimately frames Perugia not as a peripheral center, but as a key contributor to the artistic networks that helped define the transition toward the High Renaissance.Works Discussed: Perugino, Adoration of the Magi, 1470's https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adoration_of_the_Magi_(Perugino,_Perugia)Perugino, Apollo and Daphnis, 1475-1500 https://collections.louvre.fr/ark:/53355/cl010064934Perugino, Decemviri Altarpiece, 1495/96 https://www.museivaticani.va/content/museivaticani/en/collezioni/musei/la-pinacoteca/sala-vii---secolo-xv-xvi/perugino--la-madonna-col-bambino-e-i-ss--lorenzo--ludovico-di-to.htmlFollow/Support/Watch: https://linktr.ee/italian_renaissance_podcastThe Florentine Renaissance CourseSupport the show

Habakkuk ministered in a tense moment in Israel's history—when Babylon was rising and judgment was approaching—yet the heart of his book is deeply personal: moving from impatience and confusion to steadfast trust in God's timing. In today's episode of the MY Devotional Podcast, Dr. Michael Youssef walks through Habakkuk's prayer in chapter 3 and points to three features that can reshape your own prayer life when answers feel delayed: Humility before God: Habakkuk begins by questioning God's silence (Habakkuk 1:2), but ends with reverent awe—learning to submit his perspective to God's sovereignty. Adoration of God: Instead of using prayer only to get solutions, Habakkuk models prayer as worship—asking to know God more and responding in obedience. Focus on God's work: Habakkuk pleads for mercy and awakening—not because the people deserve it, but because he longs for God's Name to be glorified. Where many sink into anger, depression, or prayerlessness when heaven feels quiet, Habakkuk turns delay into discipleship—asking, in effect, “Lord, what are You teaching me? How can I trust You more?” This devotional will help you pray through waiting seasons with faith, perspective, and joy that isn't dependent on circumstances. Prayer: Father, may I set my heart on You, the God of grace, wisdom, and sovereign power. I believe Your promises and will wait on You. I pray in the name of Jesus. Amen.  Scripture Focus: “Though the fig tree does not bud and there are no grapes on the vines, though the olive crop fails and the fields produce no food, though there are no sheep in the pen and no cattle in the stalls, yet I will rejoice in the Lord, I will be joyful in God my Savior” (Habakkuk 3:17-18).  *This devotional adapted from Life-Changing Prayers by Michael Youssef © 2018.
