Podcasts about bishops

“Can you be saved outside the Church?” This question opens a discussion on the complexities of salvation and the Church’s teachings, including how to reconcile past statements on salvation with current doctrine. Other topics include the existence of bishops in the Arctic, the Protoevangelium of James, and the implications of the cadaver synod on papal authority. Join the Catholic Answers Live Club Newsletter Invite our apologists to speak at your parish! Visit Catholicanswersspeakers.com Questions Covered: 02:35 – Are there bishops in the arctic? 05:57 – Regarding the development of doctrine on salvation outside the church. How can the church reconcile previous statements of the church like those who shed blood for Christ have no salvation if they are not in union with the Roman Pontiff in Cantate Domino? 17:59 – Protoevangelium of James. When was it written and can you explain more about it? 25:04 – What’s the best way to leave the protestant church and enter the Catholic Church? 42:30 – Regarding the cadaver synod. If one pope can nullify a previous pope, how does that square with apostolic and papal authority?

Over 20 years have passed since the revelations from Boston that set off a decade of cultural persecution of the Church in retaliation for the bishops allowing morally unfit men into the priesthood who then predictably became monsters of the worst kind, with the bishops then compounding the grave evils of these decisions by hiding the guilty men by moving around dioceses or across the country until, predictably, it all was exposed by the media. Now they want you to foot the bill of the sins of their predecessors or for their sins.Sponsored by Nelson Insurance Advisorshttps://www.nelsonplan.comSources:https://substack.com/@returntotradition1Contact Me:Email: return2catholictradition@gmail.comSupport My Work:Patreonhttps://www.patreon.com/AnthonyStineSubscribeStarhttps://www.subscribestar.net/return-to-traditionBuy Me A Coffeehttps://www.buymeacoffee.com/AnthonyStinePhysical Mail:Anthony StinePO Box 3048Shawnee, OK74802Follow me on the following social media:https://www.facebook.com/ReturnToCatholicTradition/https://twitter.com/pontificatormax+JMJ+#popeleoXIV #catholicism #catholicchurch #catholicprophecy#infiltration

What happens when a bishop breaks with Rome but still claims apostolic succession? Damian Thompson is joined by historian Magnus Lundberg, Professor of Church and Mission History at Uppsala University in Sweden, to explore the strange world of ‘wandering bishops', rival popes and tiny schismatic churches. They trace the tangled web of consecrations that have produced thousands of bishops outside the authority of Rome, and explore the grandiose titles and ceremonies of these independent bishops. They also examine the roots of sedevacantism, the legacy of Archbishop Lefebvre and the Society of St Pius X, and ask whether the latest breakaway bishops could create yet another schism. Plus, where exactly does the Catholic Church draw a line between a bishop whose orders are illicit and one whose orders are invalid?

f the SSPX had consecrated 30 to 50 bishops, Rome would have been forced to negotiate. That is the assessment of Professor William Thomas, a Vatican theologian and classmate of Pope Leo XIV, who argues that the Society's recent consecrations, while historic, did not go far enough to compel the Vatican to take the traditionalist movement seriously.Thomas praises the traditional liturgy and warns that suppressing the Latin Mass will not resolve the underlying doctrinal disputes. The crisis is not liturgical; it is doctrinal. And the Vatican's response to the SSPX reveals a hierarchy more interested in punishment than dialogue.The conversation turns to the synodal project, which Thomas sharply criticizes for its plans to involve non-Christian religions in its implementation. Synodality, he argues, is fundamentally incompatible with the Church's divine mandate to evangelize. It replaces apostolic tradition with ambiguity, a new religion of process rather than truth.Make the switch today to iCatholicMobile today!iCatholic Mobile—supporting the Catholic faith with every connection.https://www.facebook.com/icatholicmobile https://www.icatholicmobile.com/ HELP SUPPORT WORK LIKE THIS: https://give.lifesitenews.com/?utm_source=SOCIAL U.S. residents!

Today’s Topics: 1, 2, 3, 4) Father Charles Murr joins Terry Gospel – Matthew 15:21-28 – At that time Jesus withdrew to the region of Tyre and Sidon. And behold, a Canaanite woman of that district came and called out, “Have pity on me, Lord, Son of David! My daughter is tormented by a demon.” But He did not say a word in answer to her. His disciples came and asked Him, “Send her away, for she keeps calling out after us.” He said in reply, “I was sent only to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.” But the woman came and did Him homage, saying, “Lord, help me.” He said in reply, “It is not right to take the food of the children and throw it to the dogs.” She said, “Please, Lord, for even the dogs eat the scraps that fall from the table of their masters.” Then Jesus said to her in reply, “O woman, great is your faith! Let it be done for you as you wish.” And her daughter was healed from that hour. Memorial of the Dedication of the Basilica of Saint Mary Major at Rome Saint Mary, pray for us!

The Slow Danger of NeglectSong of Solomon 2:15 "Catch the foxes for us, the little foxes, that ruin the vineyards—for our vineyard is in bloom.”Most spiritual damage doesn't begin with a major failure—it begins with small neglect. That's what makes neglect so dangerous. Nobody notices it at first. It's not dramatic. It's not obvious. It's subtle. And because it's subtle, many believers underestimate its power.

The Covid 19 pandemic disrupted every aspect of life: education, health, work… and religion. New research collates the experience of faith communities and how they engaged with the state. Have churches learned the lessons from the pandemic? Professor Gladys Ganiel coauthored the reports, and is joined in the studio by Rev John Alderdice (part of the Methodist Church's response group), Dr Naomi Green (the assistant general secretary of the Muslim Council of Britain), and Father Tim Bartlett(who represented northern Bishops on the faith forum).Christopher Nolan's epic film based on Homer's epic Odyssey poem is enjoying box office success. The Guardian's Charlotte Higgins tells why she fell in love with the poem as a teenager and considers how far modern moral sensibilities should influence the adaption of classics.And Sunday Sequence remembers Bryan Gallagher, whose distinctive voice and gifted storytelling delighted radio audiences. Father Brian D'Arcy reflects on the death of his friend and we listen back to Audrey's conversation with Bryan back in 2020 when he reflected on his life and what he might change if he had the chance to do it again.

There are three degrees within the sacrament of Holy Orders: the episcopacy (bishops), the presbyterate (priests), and the diaconate (deacons).

"Not every man who carries a crozier is a true shepherd." Support the channel by visiting: https://brianholdsworth.ca/help In John 10, Christ warns that some men entrusted with his flock will act as hirelings: enjoying the position of a shepherd but abandoning the sheep when the wolves arrive. Saints such as Augustine and Gregory the Great applied this warning directly to bishops who seek worldly honours, temporal advantages, or personal security rather than the salvation of souls. So how can Catholics distinguish a faithful shepherd from a hireling? In this video, I consider two revealing tests: whether a bishop's leadership produces vocations and whether he is willing to defend the faithful when doing so carries a personal cost. The difference between a thriving diocese and a dying one may have far less to do with consultants, strategic plans, and institutional resources than with whether its leaders genuinely believe in God and trust his grace.

In the early centuries of Christianity, some of the most important battles were fought not with swords, but with words.  Bishops gathered from across the Roman world to debate questions that would define the faith for millions of people: the nature of God, the identity of Jesus, the role of Mary, and even the use of images in worship. The decisions they made shaped Christianity for the next 1,500 years. Learn more about the first seven ecumenical councils on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

This week on RR, we go from Gen-X Bishops to Gen-Z interns. First, Register Managing Editor Jonathan Liedl tells us about the Gen X bishops who are a growing demographic leading the Church, and then EWTN News summer interns Katie Matt and Gemma Flores join us to share their experiences.

"The Bible invites us to wrestle with life's realities."In this final episode of our Summer Forecast series of 2026, Rev. Dr. Isabelle Hamley discusses the challenges and importance of preaching from difficult parts of scripture, including texts on judgment, trauma, violence, and justice. While we often want to avoid these sections of Scripture, she helps us think about how to read these texts faithfully and responsibly. Isabelle's commitment to preaching from the whole counsel of God reminds us to recognize the limits of our capacity to understand God. She also shares thoughtful insights on contemporary humility in relation to the interpretation and misuse of scripture, challenging us to consider the ways in which we, too, miss the mark. TW: references to sexual violence, war, and traumaIsabelle's BioRev.

Some folks, including some Catholics, wonder why lay persons who are gifted and prepared speakers are still not allowed to give the homily in the context of Holy Mass. In fact, even the Bishops of Germany recently asked for special permission from the Vatican to do this. However, the Vatican said it was not possible. In this episode, we discuss why.

Patrick answers questions that span family history, language, and the challenges of Catholic life, blending stories of his upbringing and unexpected lessons from Carmelite Sisters with practical guidance about the canon of Scripture and priestly obedience. He shifts from laughter over grape bricks in Prohibition-era Masses to serious, nuanced advice on excommunication, confession, and the boundaries of loyalty for clergy, all while weaving in listeners’ stories that echo his own. The episode surges with warmth, candor, and an unpredictable mix of the ordinary and the profound. Mark (email) – Do you speak Spanish a lot at home? (00:55) Diane - Why aren’t more of the books written on Jesus in the bible? (09:09) John (email) - Priest loyalty to Bishops, Cardinals and Pope?

The core of the crisis in the Church is NOT the liturgy. The question of the TLM v Novus Ordo Missae is an extension, a byproduct of the crisis in the Church. The real issue is changes to the faith itself, which the Modernists fully admit to having accomplished.

“Is Catholicism a false church?” This question opens a discussion on the validity of Catholicism compared to Eastern Orthodoxy, particularly regarding changes in liturgy and fasting rules. The conversation also addresses whether first-century Christians prayed to saints and explores what Catholics believe about salvation in contrast to the “once saved, always saved” perspective. Join the Catholic Answers Live Club Newsletter Invite our apologists to speak at your parish! Visit Catholicanswersspeakers.com Questions Covered: 04:35 – Considering Catholicism or Eastern Orthodoxy. If the majority of bishops left the RCC, is that a sign they are a false church? Also, if Catholics changed liturgy/fasting rules while EO have been consistent, is that a sign they are a false church? 20:30 – How to Respond to the claim. Did first-century Christians pray to the saints? My protestant friend says it started in the third century. 31:05 – What do Catholics believe they have to do to be saved, and how do I respond to the once saved always saved belief? What are simple verses to refute that? 42:22 – Agnostic Brother Asked thinks Christianity is too Anthropocentric. He has a hard time believing that the universe was made for human beings primarily. 47:20 – Best Friend and brother want to convert to EO because of the filioque. How can I respond?
