    Fr. Mike points out how easy it is to take good things and make idols out of them, setting them up as God's rivals for our hearts. We can discover these rivals by noticing the things we prioritize over spending time with God. The readings are 2 Maccabees 13, Wisdom 15-16, and Proverbs 25:15-17.

    Children are a gift from God. Children have integrity and rights. With these key principles in mind, Fr. Mike reviews the Catechism's teachings about marriage, family, child bearing, sterility, and adoption. Because “a child is not something owed to one but is a gift”, we must protect the dignity of the child at the forefront of all decisions. Today's readings are Catechism paragraphs 2373-2379. This episode has been found to be in conformity with the Catechism by the Institute on the Catechism, under the Subcommittee on the Catechism, USCCB.

    Fr. Mike breaks down the doctrine of purgatory as we read about Judas Maccabeus and his army praying for the dead in 2 Maccabees 12. We learn that purgatory is a process of purification that our hearts need in order to be ready to love God and to enter into his presence. In our reading of Wisdom today, Fr. Mike emphasizes the insanity of worshipping idols and how it's more tempting to make idols out of good things rather than evil things. Today's readings are 2 Maccabees 12, Wisdom 13-14, and Proverbs 25:11-14. For the complete reading plan, visit ascensionpress.com/bibleinayear.

    Married love has an “innate language” of total and mutual self-giving. This language expresses itself in the marital act of sexual intimacy. Marital love mirrors God's love. It is free, total, faithful, and fruitful. Fr. Mike explains that in the face of this reality, contraception and infidelity directly contradict the marital covenant between a man and a woman. Today's readings are Catechism paragraphs 2364-2372.

    Matt, Ken, and Kenny continue their discussion about one of the most important questions a Christian can ask: what is the Gospel? Throughout his letters, especially in his messages to the Galatians and Romans, St. Paul warns against boasting in a works-based righteousness. So what kind of "works" was Paul talking about? Former Baptist pastor Ken Hensley dives into the text to demonstrate what it is that Paul was actually condemning when he spoke against the idea of salvation by works of the law.

Send us a text by clicking this link!What if the hardest part of grief isn't the loss itself, but how the living watch you handle it? We dive straight into a thorny question: is there a “right” time to remarry after a spouse dies, especially when children are still grieving and the internet is watching? We don't hand out rules; we wrestle with the difference between what's allowed, what's wise, and what's respectful when private sorrow meets public platforms.That candor opens into a bigger reflection on how people instinctively talk to their dead and what that says about prayer, memory, and the communion of saints. We explore why Marian devotion feels so natural, how a mother uniquely suffers with her children, and why many Catholics bristled at a recent Vatican document discouraging titles like Co-Redemptrix. The theology is one thing; the message it sends to the faithful is another. We try to hold both—truth and tenderness—without dumbing anything down.To ground today's heat, we turn to Genesis. Younger over older, betrayal and reunion, Judah and Joseph—those messy family stories echo through salvation history, from Adam and Christ to Eve and Mary. We connect those patterns to modern culture wars, fear-based politics, and the outrage economy. Why did a tame interview spark a wildfire? What happens when panic and censorship drive people into echo chambers? Meanwhile, real pressures—debt, housing, wages, family breakdown—grind on in the background. Our aim is clarity: honor grief without spectacle, love Mary without apology, value nation without idolatry, and keep your eyes on what actually shapes lives.If this conversation challenged you or gave you language for something you've felt, share it with a friend, subscribe for more, and leave a review so others can find the show.

    11/5/25 - Teresa Helena Higginson (1844‑1905), born in Holywell, Wales, spent her life as a humble schoolteacher while living a remarkable hidden sanctity. From her childhood in a devout Catholic family to her work in schools across Wigan, Bootle, and Edinburgh, she quietly bore suffering, illness, and the challenges of teaching with unwavering faith. On Good Friday 1874, she received the first of her mystical stigmata (bleeding wounds in her hands and feet), and experienced repeated ecstasies in which she shared in the Passion of Christ. Teresa also promoted a deep devotion to the "Sacred Head of Jesus, Seat of Divine Wisdom." Declared "Servant of God" in 1937, her life shows the extraordinary ways holiness can exist in ordinary daily work, patient suffering, and total union with Christ.

    In this powerful episode of The Manly Catholic, James sits down once again with one of the Church's boldest defenders of truth, Bishop Athanasius Schneider. Together, they discuss his latest book, Salve Regina: A Rosary Crusade to Plead for Holy Popes, a spiritual call to arms for every Catholic man.The conversation begins with Bishop Schneider's honest reflection on the state of the Church under Pope Leo XIV. He acknowledges both the hope and the grave concerns, especially the danger of promoting men who tolerate heresy or immorality to positions of power. Yet his message remains clear: Christ will not abandon His Church. The gates of hell will not prevail.Bishop Schneider explains why the holiness of the Pope matters for the entire Body of Christ, how one holy shepherd can renew a diocese for generations, and why we must not only pray for priests but for holy popes and bishops. He then unveils the purpose behind his “Rosary Crusade;” a militant spiritual campaign rooted in prayer, fasting, and fidelity to the Blessed Mother.Men are challenged to take up their weapon: the Rosary. The Bishop reminds us that this prayer has crushed heresies, conquered empires, and converted sinners for centuries. He calls men to be protectors — not just of their homes, but of the Church itself — by interceding for holy leaders and teaching their children by example.Pick up your Rosary. Join the crusade. Become a soldier of Our Lady.Referenced in this episode:Salve Regina: A Rosary Crusade to Plead for Holy Popes – Bishop Athanasius Schneider (Sophia Institute Press)Infiltration – Dr. Taylor MarshallTrue Devotion to Mary – St. Louis de MontfortThree Powerful Quotes from Bishop Schneider:“The Church on Earth is the militant Church. We must fight — not against flesh and blood, but against the evil spirits.”“If one holy priest can renew a parish, imagine what one holy pope could do for the entire Church.”“Give your children the memory of seeing their father kneeling with the Rosary in his hand. That is true fatherhood.”Key Takeaway for Men: Every Catholic man must reclaim his spiritual duty as protector and warrior. Begin by praying the Rosary daily for holy popes, bishops, and priests. Lead your family in prayer. Let your children see you kneel. This is how the Church will be renewed:  from the home outward, through men who fight on their knees.Send us a text Support the showPlease prayerfully consider supporting the podcast on our Buy Me A Coffee page. to help grow the show to reach as many men as possible!

All the Catholic lore is hilarious, and the portrait of Italian immigrant life is too . . . Leone writes so well about the awkwardness of adolescent sex and romance." -Tom Perrotta, author of Tracy Flick Can't WinChristie Falcone is a 13-year-old eighth grader at Precious Blood Junior High. She is growing up pazza according to her Italian immigrant mother, Rita, who curses a country that poisons children with chocolate milk and singing mice on television. The nuns at Precious Blood are giving Christina nightmares and facial tics with their daily descriptions of torture and martyrdom. All she'd wanted as a fourth-grader was to become a saint so she could be God's best friend and go straight to heaven and avoid burning in hell for all eternity. At thirteen, though, Christina's nightmares about eyeless martyrs have become dreams of escaping this place where she can see the entire trajectory of her life looming before her in a never-ending hamster loop that goes from Precious Blood to La Sposa Bridal Shoppe and eventually across the street to Carmello's Funeral Home without ever leaving her neighborhood only seven miles from Boston. But Harvard Square beckons and Christina's window to the world cracks open, along with the entire American culture of the 1960s, as she grows from girl to woman.Christina the Astonishing is an endearing look at an unforgettable character that will ring true to all readers regardless of the time or place they happened to take the roller-coaster ride to adulthood.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/arroe-collins-like-it-s-live--4113802/support.

This rosary contains the glorious mysteries, recited on Wednesdays and Sundays.  These mysteries focus on the events following Christ's resurrection, including Pentecost and Mary's coronation, with fruits such as faith and hope. Be a part of the communion of saints in praying the rosary, as it connects you with the communal prayer of the universal Church and the saints throughout history, fostering a profound sense of spiritual solidarity.  The spoken portion of this rosary is 20 minutes, with extended music for additional meditation.
