Why would a parish packed with on-fire disciples feel stagnant? You'd think that if you put a dozen former FOCUS missionaries in one parish, it would explode with fruitfulness—but almost nothing happened. The truth is, even the most passionate disciples need a clear path and a culture that supports mission. Without it, the fire fizzles. In this episode, I talk about why real change is uncomfortable but necessary, what a parish of missionary disciples actually looks like, and how a community can shift from cruise ship mode to fire station mode—where mission is normal and conversion is celebrated. [00:00] Introduction and Conference Overview [01:17] Personal Story and Missionary Heart [02:46] Challenges in Building a Missionary Culture [03:13] Three Keys to Developing Missionary Discipleship [08:26] Key 1: Clarity About Mission and Vision [13:06] Key 2: Organizational Health [16:12] Key 3: Making Disciples [19:44] Building a Clear Path to Discipleship [22:34] Success Stories and Conclusion [25:54] Final Thoughts and Encouragement Don't forget to check out FOCUS (https://focus.org/) and SEEK (https://seek.focus.org/)!

What happens when you open the Bible and simply say “yes” to God? In this conversation with Sharon Doran, teaching director of Seeking Truth, you'll hear how Scripture has the power to heal wounds, renew marriages, transform families, and ignite whole communities. Sharon shares how she went from feeling unqualified to teaching hundreds—because the Holy Spirit showed up when she stepped out in faith. Sharon's story is a reminder that Scripture isn't just ink on a page—it's alive. It heals, it unites, and it sends us on mission. If you've ever wondered how ordinary people can be used in extraordinary ways, her story will inspire you to guard time with Scripture and trust God to do more than you imagined. [02:07] Sharon's Early Life and Family Influence [08:07] Sharon's Journey into Bible Study [14:16] Challenges and Growth of Seeking Truth [23:08] The Role of Women in Teaching Scripture [29:04] Approach to Scripture Study [37:34] The Importance of Love in Ministry [44:58] Favorite Biblical Passages and Typological Connections [52:37] Encouragement for Personal Scripture Study [55:02] Conclusion and Invitation to Join Seeking Truth Don't forget to check out Seeking Truth (https://seekingtruth.net/)!

Want to reach out to us? Want to leave a comment or review? Want to give us a suggestion or berate Anthony? Send us a text by clicking this link!A dark shadow has fallen over the Catholic community following the devastating shooting at a Minneapolis Catholic school. As media outlets rush to frame this tragedy through familiar political lenses, we're pulling back the veil to examine the disturbing spiritual dimensions that most commentators refuse to address.The shooter's transgender identity wasn't incidental to this violence but central to understanding it. We explore the historical connection between gender confusion and violence, drawing from Flavius Josephus's ancient accounts that described individuals who "wore women's faces" yet had "murderous hands." This pattern of disordered thinking leading to disordered actions reveals a spiritual battle raging beneath the cultural surface.Most troubling is the response of Catholic leadership. Rather than confronting the ideological darkness at work, many bishops immediately pivoted to political talking points about gun control. We contrast this weak response with St. Patrick's courageous confrontation of evil in his letter to Caroticus, where he boldly named pagan soldiers "fellow citizens of the devil" through their "evil deeds."The transgender movement represents a modern manifestation of ancient Luciferian ideology – the ultimate "I will become" statement that echoes Satan's original rebellion. This isn't merely about identity politics; it's about a fundamental rejection of created order that has devastating consequences. Meanwhile, organizations like the Association of United States Catholic Priests actively promote these harmful ideologies within the Church itself.For families seeking protection in these troubled times, we offer practical spiritual guidance, including daily prayer, blessing homes with holy water, and maintaining vigilance against the cultural forces that seek to corrupt our children's minds and souls. The path forward requires not the accommodation of evil but its direct confrontation through truth spoken with love and courage.Join us in this vital conversation about reclaiming an authentic Catholic response to the darkness of our culture.

What if the biggest thing holding your parish back isn't a lack of programs—but a lack of missionary disciples? In this episode, I sit down with my team to explore a step in parish life that often gets skipped: evangelization formation. We're talking about the part of discipleship where people go from passive participants to confident, Spirit-led missionaries—and why that shift changes everything. We get honest about what it actually takes to form missionary disciples—not just run more programs. You'll hear real behind-the-scenes stories from parishes on the ground, practical tips that work, and ways they faced the most common roadblocks we see, like fear, self-doubt, or the sense of being alone in mission. We break down evangelization formation into clear, doable steps—like helping people pray out loud, share their story, and discover their charisms. Whether your parish is just starting out or ready to go deeper, this episode will shift how you think about forming people for mission—and give you the tools to start.

Fr. Michael is the Pastor of St. Mary's Catholic Community, Beale Air Force Base.

Welcome to this enlightening episode of Father and Joe, where Joe Rockey and Father Boniface unfold the complexities and significance of a new papal election. With the election of Pope Leo, many Catholics and non-Catholics alike grapple with the question: "What does this new leadership mean for our daily lives?" While changes might seem ceremonial, Father Boniface provides deep insights into how different popes have redefined roles within the Church, highlighting shifts from Pope John Paul II, Benedict XVI, to Francis.We delve into Pope Benedict's contribution, focusing on his theological brilliance and subtle yet profound changes, such as his emphasis on localized beatification and the wealth of academic discourse he left behind. Unlike his predecessor, Pope Francis brought a mission-focused agenda fueled by simplicity and poverty, reshaping annulment processes, Curial structures, and emphasizing the global mission of the Church. Joe and Father Boniface discuss the unforeseen election of an American Pope, reflecting on how a conclave discerningly selects a pontiff to address contemporary ecclesiastical and global challenges, considering factors often veiled in secrecy.Father Boniface further illuminates the balance between doctrine, which remains unchanged, and governance, which can evolve with each papal reign. This episode enriches listeners' understanding of how a Pope not only influences ecclesiastical direction but also impacts billions globally. Whether you are a devout Catholic or a curious observer, this discussion promises to deepen your appreciation of the Papal office's depth and its alignment with the broader mission of the Church. Tune in next week for more reflections on Pope Leo's election and expectations in his papacy.Tags: Papal Transition, Pontiff, Pope Leo, Pope Francis, Pope Benedict XVI, Catholic Doctrine, Church Governance, Vatican, Catholic Church, Papal Influence, Missionary Discipleship, Evangelization, Church Reform, New Evangelization, Church History, Pope John Paul II, Papal Election, Catholic Tradition, Spiritual Leadership, Theological Insights, Papal Teachings, Beatification, Synod, Catholic Audience, Religious Influence, Modern Christianity, Global Catholicism, Church Doctrine, Vatican Council, Church Unity, Catholic Faith, Church and Society, Clergy, Congregation, Catholic Community, Church Practices, Religious Discussions, Theology, Papal CeremoniesHashtags: #PapalTransition, #PopeLeo, #CatholicChurch, #Vatican, #PopeFrancis, #PopeBenedict, #ChurchHistory, #CatholicDoctrine, #MissionaryDiscipleship, #Evangelization, #ChurchReform, #PapalInfluence, #UniversalChurch, #SpiritualLeadership, #PapalTeachings, #CatholicTradition, #TheologyInsights, #ChurchGovernance, #CatholicFaith, #ReligiousInfluence, #Beatification, #Synod, #CatholicCommunity, #VaticanCouncil, #GlobalCatholicism, #ModernChristianity, #ChurchUnity, #CatholicAudience, #SpiritualDirection, #ChurchPractices, #ReligiousDiscussions, #PapalCeremonies, #NewEvangelization, #PapalElection, #ReligiousSignificance, #CatholicPodcast.
