On Feb. 21, the musical world lost a legend and pioneer of salsa: Willie Colón.The trombonist, songwriter, producer and arranger was a key part of the transition of Afro-Caribbean dance music from regional traditions to worldwide popularity. For an insider's perspective on that history, this week we speak to trombonist and bandleader Angel “Papo” Vázquez, a Philadelphia-born musician who was not only inspired to play the trombone by Willie Colón, but also played on some historic recordings by Colón and other Fania Records notables.The best music tells great stories, and the same can be said about musicians. Vázquez brings along five tracks by Willie Colón that set him, and the rest of the world, on a path of deep appreciation for Colón's contributions to salsa.This podcast episode was produced by Noah Caldwell.

Whether it was Sally Field as The Flying Nun or Julie Andrews playing a novitiate in The Sound of Music, audiences used to watch priests and nuns and ministers — unremarkably — as part of American life on screen. But that all went away, and Rob Long is well aware why that is. Church attendance declined steadily for decades, and the stigma around religion has become unavoidable. Which made it all the more impressive how Rian Johnson brought faith to the screen in one particular scene of Wake Up Dead Man: an embodiment of what prayer does for people. Transcript here.

Nearly 30 anti-popes have risen across two millennia of Church history. In times of deepest confusion, even saints found themselves on opposing sides. St. Catherine of Siena confronted cardinals backing a false pope. St. Vincent Ferrer supported the wrong claimant during the Western Schism. St. Bernard of Clairvaux rallied kings against a rival. None remained silent.Dr. Ed Mazza joins to walk through these battles from his book Saints Versus Anti-Popes, drawing the line from medieval crises to the present. The question now is not whether a pope can be a bad man, history is full of them. The question is whether a pope can formally teach heresy while exercising his authority. No saint or major theologian ever taught that.The discussion moves through Marian apparitions at Akita, the warnings of Malachi Martin, and the possibility of apostasy "at the top." But the conclusion is not despair. The Church has survived anti-popes, schisms, and centuries of confusion. She will survive this.

In this episode of The Cordial Catholic, I'm joined by my friend Justin Hibbard. Justin is a former Baptist pastor, a convert to the Catholic faith, and the host of the Why Catholic Podcast and Instagram profile – and he's here this week to share his incredible conversion story with us! As a pastor and worship leader, Justin had decades of evangelical church experience under his belt when he began to question some of the foundations of the evangelical church structure: which Church was the one founded by Christ? How do I find it? What was the Great Apostacy? When did it happen? These questions and more led Justin to look deeply into Church history and, to his surprise, the answers began to come back Catholic. This week on the show,  someone so in love with Christ searing for him more deeply ... and ending up in the Catholic Church! For more from Justin check out  Why Catholic and his Instagram profile.Send your feedback to cordialcatholic@gmail.com.

Father shows us how we are being martyred today.

Segment 1 • A coalition of liberal theologians claims democracy is collapsing and urges Christians to “resist”. • Todd unpacks the irony of condemning “Christian nationalism” while using faith to pressure government policy. • The emotional language sounds righteous on the surface—but once you slow it down, does it actually hold up? Segment 2 • “Every person bears God's image”—but does that automatically determine public policy? • Todd challenges the logic of using biblical truths to justify specific political outcomes without defining terms. • A powerful persuasion tactic is exposed: overwhelm your opponent so disagreement makes you look cruel. Segment 3 • A prominent conservative Baptist leader converts to Roman Catholicism—how does someone go from “grace alone” to a works-based system? • The deep psychological pull of tradition, history, and apostolic lineage. • Why parents must ground their children in the doctrine of the true, invisible Church before someone else defines their heritage for them. Segment 4 • A growing number of Christians now trust AI for spiritual advice more than their pastors. • Todd explains why AI doesn't give you truth—it often gives you what you want to hear. • Massive layoffs, sermon prep shortcuts, and the quiet erosion of pastoral authority—are we outsourcing discernment? ___ Thanks for listening!

“Should we remove holy water and cover statues in Lent?” This question opens a discussion on the practices of the season, while also addressing the nature of the Mass as a true sacrifice, the challenges of explaining its mystical elements to Protestants, and the historical changes from the Latin Mass to the new order. Join the Catholic Answers Live Club Newsletter Invite our apologists to speak at your parish! Visit Catholicanswersspeakers.com Questions Covered: 01:27 – Should We Remove Holy Water and Cover Statues Doing Lent? 12:25 – Is the sacrifice of the Mass symbolic or is it actually Christ continually being sacrificed through time and space in the Eucharist? 17:14 – How do you deal with a Protestant who struggles with the mystical or supernatural aspects of the Mass. I mean, consuming flesh and blood is pretty out there. 37:10 – After the collect, does the congregation need to wait until the priest sits down before we sit down? We did it that way when I was a kid, but not anymore. 42:25 – Why did the Mass change from the Latin Mass to the new order? 47:43 – I'm in OCIA. I wanted to attend a Church that has a Latin Mass. What do I need to know beforehand? I saw on a parish website times for high mass and low mass. What is this all about?

This week on Church History Matters, hosts Scott Woodward and Casey Griffiths kick off an important new series exploring women and the priesthood, joined by cohost Lisa Olsen Tait, a respected scholar of Latter-day Saint women's history. In this opening episode, the team lays a thoughtful historical foundation—examining how women in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints have understood, accessed, and spoken about priesthood power from the 19th century to today. Drawing on original documents, sermons, Relief Society minutes, and lived experience, they explore how Mormon women have been taught about priesthood authority, temple covenants, healing blessings, and spiritual gifts across generations. With clarity and optimism, Scott, Casey, and Lisa frame the discussion around a powerful truth: women have always had a vital and meaningful connection to the priesthood of God. Rather than focusing solely on policy questions, this series seeks to illuminate doctrine, covenant relationships, and the ways Latter-day Saint women participate in and access priesthood power in their homes, congregations, and temples. This is the first episode in a multi-part series that promises historical depth, faithful scholarship, and a hopeful exploration of how priesthood power blesses the entire covenant community.

Patrick takes heartfelt calls on everything from Reiki and spiritual risks to concerns about finding authentically Catholic therapists for kids. He responds with straightforward advice on Mass etiquette, the practical and spiritual side effects of sin, and the challenges of Catholic-Orthodox unity, sprinkling in stories about the impact of bumper stickers and the joy of Taco Tuesday. Jen - My mother-in-law is trained in reiki and now hears angel voices and lives by what they tell her to do. (00:49) Eric - What is the proper thing to do at Mass after Communion while we wait for the priest to finish putting away the supplies? (06:39) Nicole - My son may have autism and ADHD. Do you know of any neurological psychologists who are Catholic and not LGBTQ? (09:51) Fred - My old missal says sinners who are forgiven still have to expiate these sins. What are these penalties that this is referring to? (12:33) Chris - How did the Church establish the liturgical years (A, B and C)? (22:47) Lyal - I am Greek Orthodox. We celebrate Easter on a different Calendar, and you celebrate on a Gregorian Calendar. Does this contradict the 3rd Ecumenical Council, and could we celebrate on the same date? (25:38) Thomas - I was posting a comment on Substack, and someone told me that I didn't have a right to say 'God bless you' because I don't have the authority. (35:52)

Even if you're Christian — even if your spouse is a genuinely good person — you can still feel deeply unfulfilled. In this episode, Dr. Greg explores how asking another person to carry your identity, security, and worth turns love into survival — and leaves both people depleted. Key Topics: How misplaced dependence slowly erodes love Why identity collapses when relationships become sources of self-worth The difference between free self-gift and anxious attachment How to properly order your love Learn More: Pilgrimage to Poland - Learn more about this interior journey with St. John Paul II Summit of Integration 2026 - Sign up to learn more about this year's event!

In this episode of The Right Side with Doug Billings, we examine Operation Epic Fury through the lens of Catholic Just War doctrine.Following public remarks from Pope Leo calling for dialogue and peace, many Christians are asking a serious question:Is military action against Iran morally justified?Doug breaks down the four traditional Just War criteria found in the Catechism of the Catholic Church (CCC 2309) and articulated by St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas:• Grave, lasting, and certain damage • All peaceful alternatives exhausted • Serious prospect of success • ProportionalityWith Iran stockpiling uranium enriched to 60 percent, blocking inspectors, and funding terrorist proxies across the Middle East, does the current situation meet the Church's moral threshold?This episode is not partisan rhetoric. It is a theological and moral analysis of national defense.Topics covered:– Catholic teaching on Just War – Iran's nuclear program and IAEA findings – The moral obligation to defend the innocent – The difference between pacifism and prudence – Why preemptive defense can be morally legitimateIf you are Catholic, Christian, or simply interested in moral clarity in global affairs, this episode provides a structured, principled examination of one of the most consequential geopolitical decisions of our time.Listen, reflect, and share.Watch this episode on YouTube: @TheRightSideDougBillingsWe're in this together. Believe it.

We've spent a lot of time talking about what biblical accountability looks like at the national level - Bethel, Shawn Bolz, Mike Bickle, Chris Reed, or Michael Brown to name a few - examining cover-up culture that protects powerful leaders while silencing victims. But here's the question we keep getting in the comments and in our inboxes: What do I do when it's happening in my own church?That's a harder question — and honestly, a more important one.In this episode, Joshua Lewis, Michael Miller, and Michael Rowntree come back to ground level: your actual local church, where you know these people, where your kids go to Sunday school, where you serve. What does Matthew 18 actually look like when you're sitting across the table from an elder who won't listen? When do you escalate? When do you leave? When do you go public following 1 Timothy 5 — and is that ever right for a layperson to do?We're walking through the biblical process step by step, giving you real categories for navigating one of the hardest situations a believer can face. This isn't about gossip, mob justice, or protecting institutions. It's about protecting people — and honoring the Word of God in the process.0:00 – Introduction3:10 – Local Church Exposure Questions4:28 – Sins Requiring Public Exposure15:37 – Handling Private Repentant Sin 26:00 – Matthew 18 Church Discipline36:38 – Church Whistleblower Accountability45:26 – 1 Timothy 5 Elders Discipline52:38 – When to Go Public 54:45 – Leaving Abusive Church Leadership1:00:23 – Dangers of Toxic Church Culture1:01:35 – Healthy Repentance and Discipline Subscribe to The Remnant Radio newsletter and receive our FREE introduction to spiritual gifts eBook.

C. A. Christensen: A Mormon Visionary (University of Illinois Press; Amazon) Related work I've published: “‘In Their Promised Canaan Stand:' Outlawry, Landscape, and Memory in C. C. A. Christensen's Mormon Panorama,” BYU Studies Quarterly 60, no. 2 (2021). Highlights about C. C. A. Christensen: 1. C. C. A. Christensen was born to a poor family in Copenhagen, Denmark, in 1831. As a youth, he lived and studied at a poor house boarding school, before taking classes at the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts. 2. While he was an art student, the first Latter-day Saint missionaries arrived in Copenhagen. C. C. A. joined the Church in 1850. He threw himself into the work of learning the Gospel, reading the Book of Mormon, helping with Danish translations of hymns, helping his mother and brothers immigrate to Utah, and then serving a mission in Scandinavia before immigrating himself. His art training and career took a back seat to his religious commitments. 3. C. C. A. served three missions in Scandinavia. The first, in Norway, was from 1853 to 1857. He faced religious persecution and was jailed. Christensen returned from Utah to serve a second mission in Scandinavia from 1865 to 1868. He returned again to serve in Denmark from 1887 to 1889. 4. C. C. A. married Elise Haarby on the ship as they set off for Utah in 1857. They traveled across the plains as handcart pioneers. He later took a second wife, Maren Pettersen, in 1868. He had a total of 14 children, 12 of which lived to adulthood. 5. C. C. A. was the most prolific 19 th -century artist of Latter-day Saint history and scripture. He combined his European art training with Latter-day Saint beliefs and subjects. He also wrote extensively. He published poetry, essays, and letters to the editor. He helped write a history of the Scandinavian Mission. And yet, his work is not well known today. 6. The Mormon Panorama was a massive painted scroll detailing 23 scenes of early Mormon history. In the last quarter of the 19 th century, CCA and some of his family traveled around Utah cities in the winters giving presentations of the Mormon Panorama. It helped solidify the Saints' understanding of their history. 7. In 1886, Church leaders hired CCA to paint the creation room mural in the Manti Temple. It was recently restored and is still there today. 8. In 1890, C. C. A. won a contest to illustrate a Church flipchart on the life of Nephi. These 10 images were distributed by the Deseret Sunday School Union. 9. Christensen was fully dedicated to living his beliefs, often at great personal cost. The post C. C. A. Christensen with Jenny Champoux appeared first on The Cultural Hall Podcast.

Matt Smallbone is the pastor of Church of the City's downtown campus here in Nashville, and we're continuing with a bit of a theme today as we talk again this week about The Lord's Prayer. Every time we talk about it during this prayer series though, I feel like there's something new to see and something deeper to understand. It's wild how a prayer so familiar, so memorized, so repeated, can still surprise us. Matt has written a brand new book called The Prayer Experiment that comes out in April and you're going to love.

In this episode, we continue our Lenten book study on "The Way of Trust and Love" and focus on Chapter 1: A Completely New Way. We reflect on the "little way" of St. Thérèse, the invitation to become spiritual children before the Father, and how weakness becomes the very place where Christ comes to meet us. We also talk about the difference between being childish and childlike, why true maturity in faith begins with admitting our own poverty, and how small acts of courage open the door to deep healing. This week, we invite you to name the desires stirring in your heart and let the Holy Spirit awaken a new song within you.   Heather's One Thing - Franciscan's Campus-wide "Behold" Retreat Sister Miriam's One Thing - Healing Wounds by Bishop Erik Varden  Michelle's One Thing - The O' Grady's Beach House  Michelle's Other One Thing - Emily Lex Watercolor Workbooks    Journal Questions: How often do I accept the letter of God's adoption of me, and not the spirit of God's adoption? Where in my life do I need Mother Mary to smile upon me? How have I turned to self-reliance this Lent? Where is God inviting me to become more adult and free? What is the new song the Lord wants to put in my heart?   Discussion Questions: When do you notice orphanhood in your heart? What are you learning from St. Therese this Lent? When have you experienced the healing delight of a mother? Is it difficult for you to name your desires? What is one desire God has placed on your heart this Lent? What is the "yes" God is asking you to make today?   Quotes to Ponder: "You know, Mother, that I have always desired to be a saint, but alas, I have always realized, when I compared myself to the saints, that there is between them and me the same difference as exists between a mountain whose summit is lost in the skies, and the obscure grain of sand trodden underfoot by passers-by. Instead of getting discouraged, I said to myself: "God could not" "inspire us with desires that were unrealizable, so despite my littleness I can aspire to holiness. It is impossible for me to grow up, I must put up with myself as I am, with all my imperfections; but I want to find how to get to Heaven by a little way that is quite straight, quite short: a completely new little way." (St. Thérèse of Lisieux)   "Each of us has an absolute need for an inner transformation that makes us "as little as a child." What that means and how to put it into practice are exactly what Thérèse teaches in a simple, luminous way. That is why she was proclaimed a Doctor—that is, a teacher—of the Church." (Father Jacques Philippe, The Way of Trust and Love, Page 6)   "The heart of Christian life is to receive and welcome God's tenderness and goodness, the revelation of his merciful love, and to let oneself be transformed interiorly by that love." (Father Jacques Philippe, The Way of Trust and Love, Page 7)   Scripture for Lectio: "But he said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for power is made perfect in weakness." So, I will boast all the more gladly of my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may dwell in me." (2 Corinthians 12:9)   Sponsor - Healed and Restored: Healed and Restored is a non-profit organization located in the Charlotte, NC area that was created in 2020 to fill a void and respond to a need that has been long overlooked in our society. A program that is 100% dedicated to helping women heal in the aftermath of abuse, assault, and other traumatic experiences. According to the United Nations, one in three girls and women around the world has been subjected to sexual and/or physical abuse at least once in their lives. Studies show that women who have been through abuse (of all types) have higher levels of fear, are more isolated, and face greater mental health problems. In the aftermath of any of these traumatic events, women will sometimes resort to hurting themselves through cutting, eating disorders, and addictions. Without proper care and healing, these dark cycles can persist for years. We help women and girls realize that God desires to heal every single one of His beloved children. We teach them that the enemy is a master manipulator. As soon as a person gets hurt, the devil begins to plant all kinds of lies in our hurting souls. Some of these lies are: God doesn't love you, everything that happened is your fault, you should be forever ashamed, and you will never find healing and peace. The Mission The Healed and Restored mission is to help women and girls who are survivors of abuse, assault, domestic violence, trafficking, and all other forms of trauma find healing and restoration. Grounded in Catholic teachings and through a combination of counseling, life coaching, intimate workshops, practical tools, spiritual mentoring, and community support we help women and girls transform pain into purpose— empowering them to not only survive, but thrive. Since 2020, Healed and Restored has helped over 500 women and girls on their journey to process their unhealed wounds. Never could we have predicted how much God would bless our mission in such a short period of time. All of this has us convinced that there are times when God uses our deepest pain to propel us on the path to our greatest calling! If you or someone you know could use the assistance of our trained and compassionate Catholic Therapists/Counselors and money is an issue, please do not hesitate to reach out to us by emailing info@healedandrestored.org for more information and guidance. Or if you feel called to be part of this mission by volunteering your time, we would love to hear from you. Together and guided by the Holy Spirit, we can make a difference in the life of those around us who are suffering.   Timestamps:  00:00 Healed and Restored 01:31 Intro 02:17 Welcome 04:26 Scripture Verse and Quote to Ponder 05:35 Trusting in Our Creator 09:49 The Path of Spiritual Childhood 12:53 Healed by Delight 16:27 What is the "Little Way"? 19:36 Childlike vs Childish 24:05 The Role of Holy Scripture 30:10 One Things

In this episode of Mormon Stories Podcast, we speak with Christopher Jenkins, a former LDS bishop, about his personal experience with the Church's abuse hotline. While serving as bishop in Washington, a ward member confessed abuse to him. When Christopher called the Church's hotline for guidance, he says he was told he was not a mandatory reporter and felt pressured not to report the abuse to authorities.Christopher walks us through both calls he made to the hotline, the legal framing of the guidance he received, and the lack of follow-up afterward. He also discusses broader issues surrounding clergy confidentiality, how reporting requirements vary by jurisdiction, and what he perceived as the Church's focus on institutional liability rather than victim care.We also explore how he now views mandatory reporting laws, the Church's opposition to certain reporting requirements in Washington, and larger questions about abuse prevention, bishop training, and accountability. Christopher shares how this experience, along with navigating life as the father of LGBTQ+ children, contributed to significant shifts in his faith.This conversation centers on leadership responsibility, ethical decision-making, and what happens when institutional guidance conflicts with personal conscience.___________________YouTubeAt Mormon Stories we explore, celebrate, and challenge Mormon culture through in-depth stories told by members and former members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints as well as scholars, authors, LDS apologists, and other professionals.  Our overall mission is to: 1. Facilitate informed consent amongst LDS Church members, investigators, and non-members regarding Mormon history, doctrine, and theology2. Support Mormons (and members of other high-demand religions) who are experiencing a religious faith crisis3. Promote healing, growth and community for those who choose to leave the LDS Church or other high demand religions

God has opened the gates of influence in this hour, and the Church must recognize the moment. There is a long term cultural strategy shaping media, law, education, and government, and most believers do not see how intentional it really is. This is not about conflict, it is about Spirit filled sons and daughters rising into positions of wisdom, leadership, and service across every sphere of society. If you want clarity on what God is doing in America right now and how you can move from prayer to purposeful influence, this message will show you where you fit in the unfolding reformation.   Podcast Episode 2042: You Are Living In Amazing Times - God Has a Door Open For You! | don't miss this!

You don't actually want to be “there” — you just don't know how powerful “here” really is. We live in a constant tension between where we are and where we wish we were. Social media amplifies it. Comparison fuels it. Impatience feeds it. But what if the key to getting “there” is learning how to fully show up “here”? In this episode, Christine Caine unpacks Paul's final words in 2 Timothy and reveals how eternal perspective, daily faithfulness, and radical trust in God are the true pathway from here to there. If you've ever felt behind, stuck, overlooked, or frustrated with your current season, this message will anchor your heart and reset your focus. Trust God here — and He will take you there. ✨What you'll discover: ● Why your “here” is not a holding pattern but holy preparation. ● How eternal perspective keeps you steady in temporary seasons. ● The simple (but not easy) secret to moving from here to there.

Are you having a Lenty Lent? It may feel like your failing or things are going wrong, but maybe you are right where the Lord wants you. Its just a bit of pain from the composting process of our souls.  Lent is not a gloomy interruption of life. It is the Church handing us winter on purpose.   In the garden, winter strips everything down. The bright flowers are gone. The branches look skeletal. You walk outside and think, Nothing is happening here.   But beneath the surface, roots are deepening. The soil is being replenished. Worms are turning what fell and died into nourishment. What looks like stillness is actually preparation.   Lent does the same.   It takes away the noise. It asks us to fast. To sit in silence. To feel our hunger instead of numbing it. To look honestly at what needs pruning in our lives. And at first it feels like a loss. Like grey skies feel to me today. Like not being able to see more than a few feet in front of you.   But Lent is not about deprivation for its own sake. It is about increasing capacity. Uniting ourselves to Christ in his passion. Praying in the garden of Gethsemane. Facing Calvery.    When you prune a plant, you cut away what once looked fruitful. You remove even good branches so that better fruit can grow. That is uncomfortable. It feels like diminishment. But the gardener is thinking ahead to spring.   And the compost pile is not a symbol of failure. It is where the old life breaks down so it can become nourishment for new life. In the spiritual life, our disappointments, our faliures, our surrendered dreams, even our grief, none of it is wasted. Given to God, it becomes rich soil.   Lent is when we allow that decomposition to happen.    We stop clinging. We let attachments die. We allow deeper parts of the heart to awaken. The grey days reveal what the bright days sometimes hide. They show us how much we depend on consolation instead of God Himself.   And then Easter comes.   Not as a surprise, but as fulfillment. The buds that appear are not random. They are the result of hidden work. The joy feels fuller because we remember the winter. The Alleluia sounds louder because we walked through the silence.   Spring does not erase Lent. It proves it was necessary.   I'm trying to die to myself and give God my fiat. This Lent I'm also saying "I am the handmade of the Lord, be it done unto me according to your word". I'm surrendering myself to the hands of the Gardener.   And I pray for patience while the compost of my soul continues decomposing, I remind myself  that growth cannot be rushed. His ways are not my ways. But I trust and surrender.    The Gardener knows when to prune. He knows when to wait. He knows when to bring the sun.   And even when you can only see three feet in front of you, the roots are going deeper than you realize.
