Episode 150: 27th Sunday of Ordinary Time, Year C In today's episode, our main focus will be on the second reading for this upcoming 27th Sunday of Ordinary Time, Year C, taken from 2 Timothy 1:6-8, 13-14. There are couple of details that we will focus one. One relates to the topic of Apostolic Succession. The other relates to Sacred Tradition. The Gospel reading, taken from Luke 17:5-10, does provide us a detail worthy reflecting on, but it is not apologetical in nature even though it can help us in our apologetics ministry. Hey everyone, Welcome to The Sunday Catholic Word, a podcast where we reflect on the upcoming Sunday Mass readings and pick out the details that are relevant for explaining and defending our Catholic faith. I'm Dr. Karlo Broussard, staff apologist and speaker for Catholic Answers, and the host for this podcast. In today's episode, our main focus will be on the second reading for this upcoming 27th Sunday of Ordinary Time, Year C, taken from 2 Timothy 1:6-8, 13-14. There are couple of details that we will focus one. One relates to the topic of Apostolic Succession. The other relates to Sacred Tradition. The Gospel reading, taken from Luke 17:5-10, does provide us a detail worthy reflecting on, but it is not apologetical in nature even though it can help us in our apologetics ministry. Here’s the second reading, 2 Timothy 1:6-8, 13-14. Paul writes, Beloved: I remind you, to stir into flame the gift of God that you have through the imposition of my hands. For God did not give us a spirit of cowardice but rather of power and love and self-control. So do not be ashamed of your testimony to our Lord, nor of me, a prisoner for his sake; but bear your share of hardship for the gospel with the strength that comes from God. Take as your norm the sound words that you heard from me, in the faith and love that are in Christ Jesus. Guard this rich trust with the help of the Holy Spirit that dwells within us. The first detail that I want to highlight is Paul's statement, “the gift of God that you have through the imposition of my hands.” There's a considerable amount of debate surrounding this passage as it relates to Apostolic Succession. And that's what I'd like to focus on. For some Catholics, this passage is clear-cut evidence for Apostolic Succession—the idea that the apostles ordained others to succeed them in the apostolic ministry. Paul speaks of a “gift” given to Timothy, which would seem to be a reference to the indelible mark that's given in priestly ordination. Paul also says that this gift was given through “the imposition of hands,” which would also fit with the Catholic understanding of priestly ordination. So what should we make of this interpretation? Well, let's first take the appeal to the “gift.” I don't think this refers specifically to the character or mark that's given in priestly ordination. The reason is that such a character, in the words of R. J. Foster in A Catholic Commentary on Holy Scripture, “would have no need of being revived and is incapable of diminution or decline” (pg. 1148). Rather, it seems to be a reference to what theologians call “the grace of a calling,” actual graces that a minister has access to for the sake of fulfilling the duties that the office requires. Foster argues this is evidenced by Paul adding, “For God did not give us a spirit of cowardice but rather of power and love and self-control.” Now, this doesn't mean this is not a reference to priestly ordination, since “the grace of a calling” comes with the priestly ordination. And that it is a reference to Timothy's priestly ordination is strongly supported by this “gift” being given through the “imposition of hands.” We have to be careful, however, with our appeal to the imposition of hands. The “laying on of hands” has multiple meanings in the Bible. Curtis Mitch and Scott Hahn give a nice list in their Ignatius Catholic Study Bible: It's a gesture used to perform healings (Mark 16:18), confer bles

Fr. Mike continues to describe Nehemiah's process of rebuilding the wall of Jerusalem and encountering a variety of challenges in his calling. He explains that in doing God's work, we will often face internal or external opposition which we must meet with prayer and perseverance, trusting God entirely. Today's readings are Nehemiah 4-5, Esther 11-12, and Proverbs 20:27-30. For the complete reading plan, visit ascensionpress.com/bibleinayear.

St. Michael is our Church's defender. And like all the angels, he also defends our children. He stands as a bulwark against the devil and evil. Even before the time of Christ, he protected those who followed God and were faithful to Him.

Fr. Mike continues discussing the call of Nehemiah and how we should approach the work the Lord calls us to do. He explains why all work is divine participation in God's Kingdom on earth and encourages us to remember our service to God and to others, keeping our focus on serving and loving in the realm of our influence. Today's readings are Nehemiah 3, Zechariah 14, and Proverbs 20:23-26. For the complete reading plan, visit ascensionpress.com/bibleinayear.

Many of our ongoing struggles trace back to deeper wounds—and this was certainly true for St. Thérèse. In part two of this series, Dr. Sri continues to explore the childhood traumas that affected St.Thérèse and more importantly, how God gave her the grace to do His will in the midst of them.

Special Guest Host Cale Clarke opens the episode with lively exchanges and movie nods, then shifts to reflect on the feast of the Archangels and an unexpected presidential statement about St. Michael, sparking questions about faith in public life and spiritual warfare. As the episode progresses, Cale weaves together personal stories, biblical reflections, and calls from listeners, balancing humor with weighty discussions on guardian angels, recent attacks on churches, and the responsibilities of religious educators. Reflection, surprise, and candid dialogue pulse through every minute. Presidential Message on the Feast of Saint Michael the Archangel (03:14) Is it a requirement for Catholics to believe in Guardian Angels? (12:59) Cale shares his Guardian Angel Moment (14:27) Ronny - Great insights from Cale. I used to listen to Protestant radio but now I just listen to Relevant Radio! (39:56) Linda – Should teenagers be forced to receive the Sacrament of Confirmation? (47:03)

Special Guest Host Cale Clarke draws on a recent tragedy in Grand Blanc, Michigan to reflect on faith, community, and how Catholics might learn from the service and strong family focus often found among the LDS. He invites honest conversations about apologetics, examines why Catholic families sometimes lag behind in Bible knowledge and community engagement, and features callers sharing practical ways to deepen Catholic faith day-to-day. Each moment is grounded in real stories and challenges, often surprising and direct, always encouraging listeners toward meaningful growth. Alma - Lots of Mormons in my community and they are great people who teach their kids how to be missionaries. (20:04) Sarah - The Catholic Church's that are the fullest have priests that are asking more of the parishioners (26:25) Billy (email) – Why didn’t Jesus ever talked about dinosaurs (39:13)

The number one thing I get asked when I share about memorizing the catechism is "Wait... I didn't know you were Catholic." Trying to explain that there are many kinds of catechisms and we use a Protestant one leaves even more questions. That's sad to me because teaching my kids the catechism has become one of the most formative faith practices I've had. Today I'm talking to Leah Nicklaus. She is a fellow mom of only boys who homeschools in the classical/Charlotte Mason method. She has hundreds of gospel-centered book recommendations and resources! I've come to love chatting with her because we share so much in common, including how valuable we find the catechism to be. -How has catechism helped you and your family? -When did you first discover the catechism? How would you define it? -Which catechism do you like best? -How do you include it in other discipleship practices? What does discipleship look like in your family? -Have you found the catechism to help your faith? -What are other family discipleship practices that work for you?

The 1970s were a dangerous time in Ireland. An era known as “The Troubles” began in the late 1960s. It was protestants vs. Catholics, British loyalists against Irish unionists, the British army vs. the IRA, the UDA, and other groups… There were bombings, assassinations, guerrilla campaigns, and roaming paramilitary groups, both official and unofficial. It saw civil disobedience, riots, mass protests, segregation, and many, many deaths…more than 3500 people, mostly civilians, died before things calmed down in the late 90s.  July 31, 1975, was one of the bloodiest nights in the history of Irish music…in fact, it rivals some of the worst violence against musicians outside hits involving drug cartels in Mexico and South America…and people are still looking for answers. I'm Alan Cross, and this is episode 50 of “Uncharted: Crime and Mayhem in the Music Industry”. This is the story of what became known as “The Miami Showband Massacre”.

Seth Horton came from a strong Christian background, which included a significant emphasis on personal purity. Embedded in all that was the assumptions that Catholics weren't real Christians; that they'd either been deceived, or were willfully distorting Scripture. When he met his future wife, a Catholic, his conversations with her helped him begin to see that much of what he thought he knew about Catholicism was based on rumor and misunderstanding. But it was through his discovery of Theology of the Body that he found a robust and life-giving anthropology that went far deeper than the prohibitions of Purity Culture, and gave him a Christian language and lens for understanding man, woman, and the world.

In this episode, we dig deep into the role of the Church Fathers and how Catholics should understand their authority. We start with the classic criteria—antiquity, orthodoxy, sanctity, and ecclesiastical approbation—and then explore what that means both individually and collectively. Individually, the Fathers are private theologians: brilliant, holy, and zealous for truth, but not infallible. […]

This week we tackle a big question: Who really speaks for God? With the Catholic Church appointing a new pope this year, and the Mormon prophet passing away just this weekend, both traditions are again highlighting their unique systems for choosing a spiritual leader. Catholics gather in Rome and elect a pope. Mormons promote their longest-serving apostle to prophet. But both groups agree on one thing: their leader is God's one true mouthpiece on earth.In this episode, we'll explore:How prophets are chosen in the Bible — God personally calls His messengers (Exodus 3, Isaiah 6, Jeremiah 1).How Mormons pick their prophet — by seniority in the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles.How Catholics choose their pope — by election among cardinals.What each group believes about their leader — both claim he speaks with divine authority.Why both systems are unbiblical — Hebrews 1:1–2 shows that in these last days God speaks through His Son.Real-world examples of the danger of unchecked authority — LDS prophets reversing “eternal” teachings, Catholic popes pushing indulgences.The biblical test of prophets — Deuteronomy 13 and 18 show how to spot false authority.The biblical model of leadership — pastors and elders serving under Christ and His Word (1 Peter 5, Titus 1, Acts 17).The good news — Jesus is the final Prophet, Priest, and King. We don't need a pope in Rome or a prophet in Salt Lake City. We need Christ.Key Verses:Hebrews 1:1–2Isaiah 8:20Deuteronomy 13:1–5; 18:21–221 Peter 5:2–3Acts 17:111 John 4:1Takeaway:Catholics say, “Follow the pope.” Mormons say, “Follow the prophet.” But Jesus says, “Follow me.”--The Unveiling Mormonism podcast pulls back the curtain on Mormon history, culture and doctrine.

God should not be mocked, for He does what He says and He follows through. Yet in the world today, groups possessed by false ideologies go out of their way to mock Him. Sadly, we saw this transpire during the Jubilee Year in Rome when the so-called "LGBT" community invaded St. Peter's Basilica to spread their false beliefs in defiance of divine and natural law.

Fr. Mike discusses God's instruction to the people of Israel not to marry women from foreign lands. He explains why God would provide this instruction and how Ezra reacted when he discovered that many prominent Israelites had not obeyed it. He also identifies the prophecies of Palm Sunday and the thirty pieces of silver found in Zechariah. Today's readings are Ezra 9-10, Zechariah 9-11, and Proverbs 20:16-19.

In these dark times, we must fight evil with the most powerful weapons we have.The Rosary is foremost among them.Join the Great Rosary Campaign today at: www.GreatRosaryCampaign.com.The Great Rosary Campaign is a yearlong mission for the conversion of cultural leaders. We will announce a weekly call to pray every Sunday for specific fallen-away Catholics and non-Catholics.THIS WEEK of the Great Rosary Campaign, we will pray for the conversion of "Sola Chad," a prominent anti-Catholic account on X (@sola_chad).The SUGGESTED PENANCE this week is a 24 hour water fast, adjusted for your state in life.Countless Saints and Popes have told us that the Rosary is incredibly powerful for three things in particular:Keeping the FaithMoral renovationConversions of non-CatholicsThe Great Rosary Campaign is also based on several biblical themes and principles.First, PRAY FOR OUR BRETHREN. “Pray for one another…” (Jas. 5:16). “So then, as we have opportunity, let us do good to all men, and especially to those who are of the household of faith" (Gal. 6:10).Second, PRAY FOR OUR ENEMIES. “You have heard that it was said, ‘You shall love your neighbor and hate your enemy.' But I say to you, Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, so that you may be sons of your Father who is in heaven" (Matt. 5:43-44).Third, PRAY FOR ALL MEN, PARTICULARLY LEADERS AND THOSE IN AUTHORITY. “First of all, then, I urge that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and thanksgivings be made for all men, or kings and all who are in high positions…” (1 Tim. 2:1-2).Fourth, GOING INTO BATTLE WITH THE ARK. When the ancient Israelites came to Jericho, God didn't tell them to besiege the city. Instead, He told them to march around it with the Ark of the Covenant seven times, and on the seventh the walls would fall. We will now "march" in prayer for seven days with the New Ark of the Covenant, Our Lady, through the Rosary. We pray in hope that on the seventh day, a day especially devoted to Our Lady (Saturday), extraordinary graces of conversion will be given to those we are praying for.Fifth, EVANGELISM AND APOLOGETICS = LOVE + ARGUMENTS + PRAYER + PENANCE. Ultimately it is God who reveals Himself to a soul, and empowers them to say "yes" to Him by His grace. He chooses to use us, but He does not have to. We must remember that as we evangelize and defend the Faith, our arguments will be fruitless unless informed by love (charity), and reinforced by prayer and penance.Sixth, RETURNING GOOD FOR EVIL. “Do not return evil for evil, or reviling for reviling; but on the contrary bless, for to this you have been called, that you may obtain a blessing" (1 Pet. 3:9).Sign up to take part in the Great Rosary Campaign today: www.GreatRosaryCampaign.com

500 years ago, when the Roman Catholic Church was basically “the” church, a young Catholic priest found himself deeply convicted as he read through Scripture. The church's teaching did not align with God's Word. He tried to reform the church from within but was kicked out, forced to start a protest church that we are part of today – the Protestant Church. We believe God's Word is our highest authority and are calling Catholics and every person on earth back to God's unchanging truth. Let's learn

Fr. Mike explains how God's favor was with Ezra because he set his heart to study God's laws, to obey his laws, and to teach his laws to others. We also learn about hypocritical fasting, and how our sacrifices should remind us that everything ultimately belongs to God at all times. Today's readings are Ezra 7-8, Zechariah 7-8, and Proverbs 20:12-15. For the complete reading plan, visit ascensionpress.com/bibleinayear.

On this episode of Questions with Father, we address one of the most contested documents of the Second Vatican Council: Dignitatis Humanae. Fr. Paul Robinson joins us to ask the hard question: can this declaration on religious liberty be reconciled with the traditional teaching of the Church? We will explore the Society of Saint Pius X's objections to this declaration, the pre-conciliar magisterium, and the post-conciliar attempts to reinterpret this controversial document. From Fr. Bernard Lucien's modern defense to Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger's 1987 reply to Archbishop Marcel Lefebvre, this episode critically examines religious liberty, human dignity, and the nature of truth in public life.

The main goal of the Society of Saint Pius X is to preserve the Catholic Faith in its fullness and purity, to teach its truths, and to diffuse its virtues, especially through the Roman Catholic priesthood. Authentic spiritual life, the sacraments, and the traditional liturgy are its primary means of bringing this life of grace to souls.

Fr. Mike encourages us not to be discouraged about the small things happening in our lives, because just as we see through Zechariah's visions, God takes small things and turns them into great triumphs. He also touches on the dedication of Israel to rebuild the temple, and the connection between the crowing of Joshua and the crowning of Christ the King. Today's readings are Ezra 5-6, Zechariah 4-6, and Proverbs 20:8-11. For the complete reading plan, visit ascensionpress.com/bibleinayear.

Segment 1 • Why aren't all your YouTube videos on Fortis+? • How can I stay informed on global Christian news and pray for the church more specifically? • Should Protestants evangelize Roman Catholics, or partner with them? • What's the right approach if my pastor preaches something unbiblical? Segment 2 • My parents want to bury me in their family plot, but my husband wants us buried with his. How do I navigate this? Segment 3 • My sons and I are learning how to resolve conflict biblically through “Drive By Marriage”—but what does it actually look like to “take an argument to the cross” ? • I've tried everything to make Christian friends, but haven't had much luck. What do I do? Segment 4 • Someone I know rejects penal substitution - is that heretical? • What's your take on Pastor Mike Todd's ministry and theology? ___ Thanks for listening!

“Can souls in purgatory know their fate?” This episode explores the awareness of souls at their particular judgment and whether those in purgatory know they are not in hell. Additionally, we delve into the authenticity of the Greek New Testament, the implications of Catholic marriage law, and the evidence for Mary’s immaculate conception. Join The CA Live Club Newsletter: Click Here Invite our apologists to speak at your parish! Visit Catholicanswersspeakers.com Questions Covered: 05:19 – Is the Greek the New Testament is written in of poor style? Is the style it is written in a testament to its authenticity? 19:02 – At the point of my death, at my particular judgment, will my soul necessarily be aware of its ultimate fate as either Heaven or Hell bound? Do souls in purgatory know they are not in hell? What does the magisterium lend to address these questions? 31:18 – What “exactly” makes someone subject to Catholic marriage law? Catholics recognize baptisms in other ecclesial communities, and baptism makes you Catholic at least in some sense, but it doesn't subject you to Catholic marriage law. 41:37 – What other “evidence” is out there that Catholics may be able to point to in order to defend Mary's immaculate conception to non-Catholic Christians, since the dogma was declared by Pope Pius IX as opposed to being derived from Scripture or another source Protestants/Evangelicals revere. 48:46 – If certain demons are in fact the spirits of Nephilim/giants as most Second Temple Jews and some early Christians held, were they able to be saved? If they were indeed biological offspring from angels and humans, they would still be partly human (having original sin). All writings concerning them from that period treat them like Orcs, and never show them having the possibility of redemption. Thanks.

The fiercest battle today isn't political, it's spiritual. Demons aren't metaphors but real enemies exploiting disorder, broken formation, and the collapse of traditional Catholic life. Instead of turning to the sacraments, fasting, and the authority structures within Church and family, many Catholics fall back on Protestant models of deliverance and emotionalism.The infiltration of Marxist, feminist, and secular ideas has weakened men, replaced fatherhood with performance, and left the domestic Church exposed. True spiritual warfare demands clarity, discipline, and a return to the sacramental and doctrinal weapons that have always been the Church's arsenal.U.S. residents!
