Podcasts about Church

God has given the Church his law as “the way of life and truth.” We, therefore, have the right to be taught and guided while maintaining a spirit of docility in love. In this, Fr. Mike reminds us that the Church is our caring mother. Her care extends into the five precepts of the Church, those laws establishing the very minimum needed to remain an active member of the Body of Christ. These have to do with attending Mass, receiving the sacraments, fasting, and providing for the needs of the Church. Today's readings are Catechism paragraphs 2037-2043. 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.

Jen Wilkin, JT English, and Kyle Worley are joined by Ian Harber to have a conversation about deconstruction in the Christian faith. Questions Covered in This Episode:Is deconstruction good?What is deconstruction?What are some common examples?What is your personal story of deconstruction?How is your faith different from what it was before your deconstruction journey?Is there such a thing as healthy and unhealthy doubt?How can we be a good companion to those going through a season of deconstruction?It seems like many instances of deconstruction are tied in some way to the desire to dismiss or circumvent the clear biblical teaching on sexuality and/or gender - am I off on this? If not, how does that shape our engagement with those deconstructing?What would you want to tell someone who is going through a deconstruction journey?Helpful Definitions:Deconstruction: Is a crisis of faith that leads to the questioning of core doctrines and the untangling of cultural ideologies that settles in a faith different from before.Guest Bio:Ian Harber is the Director for Communications and Marketing at Mere Orthodoxy, author of Walking Through Deconstruction, and a graduate of the Deep Discipleship Program.

Doctrine, expectations, and high standards do not scare people away from church. Confusion is the main enemy.

The post What Really Scares People Away from Church appeared first on Church Answers.

Ambassador Yechiel Leiter lost his son in Gaza. Out of that devastating loss comes a mission: Hamas must be eliminated, and Israel will emerge stronger than ever. As Israel's top diplomat in the U.S., Leiter says this is a turning point for the Middle East. With leaders like Prime Minister Netanyahu standing firm, and President Trump's bold stand for Israel on the world stage, Leiter sees the hand of history moving.  The path is clear: victory over terror, strength for Israel, and a new Middle East built on peace through strength. ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠WATCH Stakelbeck Tonight episodes for free on TBN+ here.⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ The Stakscast with Erick Stakelbeck podcast features host Erick Stakelbeck and special guests having candid, thought-provoking conversations on the state of America, the world, and the Church, plus powerful personal testimonies and stories.

“The moral life is spiritual worship,” says the Catechism. From the Church, we receive moral guidance, with the Magisterium safeguarding and passing down authentic Christian moral teaching through the generations. This teaching reminds us who we are and how we should be, though it may sometimes deeply challenge us. In its prophetic role, Fr. Mike tells us, “the Church must both console and convict.” Today's readings are Catechism paragraphs 2030-2036. 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.

Friends, Pope Benedict XVI memorably told us that the Church does three essential things: It worships God, it evangelizes, and it serves the poor. This week, the first reading from the prophet Amos and the Gospel parable of the rich man and Lazarus bring that third task vividly to mind—and they are meant to bother us. Are you indifferent to the sufferings of the poor? What are you doing, concretely, to help them?

A Note from JamesThis might be the most insane chess story I've ever heard—not even really a chess story, but a cult story. It's wild, intense, and ultimately inspiring. Danny Rensch grew up in a cult in Arizona. At just 10 years old, the cult leader noticed his chess ability, took him away from his parents, and he wouldn't see his mother again for a decade.I first heard Danny's story when we met at Norway Chess a year and a half ago. Over dinner, he told me pieces of what would become his book Dark Squares: How Chess Saved My Life. I worried later that I'd pushed him into podcast mode before he was ready, but Danny said he was actually grateful for the chance to practice sharing his story out loud. Now, with his book out, he's ready to open up fully.Episode DescriptionDanny Rensch, Chief Chess Officer at Chess.com and author of Dark Squares: How Chess Saved My Life, shares the extraordinary story of how growing up in a cult shaped his childhood, his chess career, and his path to resilience.From being separated from his mother at age 10, to navigating indoctrination, hierarchy, and trauma, Danny explains how chess became both his prison and his salvation. This conversation is about more than chess—it's about control, identity, purpose, and how to reclaim your life from the stories others force on you.What You'll LearnHow a cult leader used chess as propaganda—and how Danny reclaimed the game as his own.The three pillars of cult life Danny experienced: like vibration, the process, and purpose.Why vulnerability and storytelling can be healing—but also how they can be weaponized.The psychological toll of being told your “purpose” at age 12—and how to build a new one.What Danny learned about resilience, family, and community after leaving the cult.Timestamped Chapters[02:05] A Note from James: introducing Dark Squares[02:34] Danny's childhood in a cult and separation from his mother[03:40] How Danny first shared his story with James in Norway[05:09] Learning to talk about trauma without fear of judgment[07:00] The challenge of context—why cult stories get misunderstood[08:20] Headline version: growing up in the Church of Immortal Consciousness[10:18] Cult hierarchy, trance teachings, and the Shelby School chess team[12:12] Was it spiritual belief—or a scam?[14:15] The role of Trina and Steven Camp, cult leaders and channelers[17:00] How hierarchy and “like vibration” destroyed marriages and families[23:00] The three pillars: like vibration, the process, and purpose[32:28] “The process”: group confession, alcohol, and weaponized vulnerability[41:54] “Purpose”: how chess became Danny's imposed destiny[46:41] What it meant to be told at 12 that chess was his life's purpose[50:18] Family secrets, hidden paternity, and the dangers of indoctrination[55:20] Processing trauma as an adult and writing Dark Squares[02:05] A Note from James: introducing Dark Squares[02:34] Danny's childhood in a cult and separation from his mother[03:40] How Danny first shared his story with James in Norway[05:09] Learning to talk about trauma without fear of judgment[07:00] The challenge of context—why cult stories get misunderstood[08:20] Headline version: growing up in the Church of Immortal Consciousness[10:18] Cult hierarchy, trance teachings, and the Shelby School chess team[12:12] Was it spiritual belief—or a scam?[14:15] The role of Trina and Steven Camp, cult leaders and channelers[17:00] How hierarchy and “like vibration” destroyed marriages and families[23:00] The three pillars: like vibration, the process, and purpose[32:28] “The process”: group confession, alcohol, and weaponized vulnerability[41:54] “Purpose”: how chess became Danny's imposed destiny[46:41] What it meant to be told at 12 that chess was his life's purpose[50:18] Family secrets, hidden paternity, and the dangers of indoctrination[55:20] Processing trauma as an adult and writing Dark Squares[63:28] Early aptitude signs: multiplication tables and ADHD focus[65:22] Childhood acting dreams and practicing “the eyebrow lift”[72:24] The most painful mother–son conversation: loyalty to the cult vs. family[73:39] Giving away belongings before leaving home—grieving his mother alive[87:31] Medical breakdown, ears exploding, and a failed chess career[88:16] Bedridden but discovering the internet: early lessons in tech and online chess[89:16] Buying domains, teaching online, and meeting Eric and Jay[114:25] On Magnus Carlsen: confidence, health, and the “Great White Shark” mindset[116:20] Chess.com and the post-COVID boom: making a living beyond world championshipAdditional Resources

Patrick offers listeners heartfelt advice and practical counsel on real-life issues, from handling marital attraction and temptation at work to supporting those facing mental health difficulties and personal loss. He responds to questions about Catholic practices such as the tabernacle and confirmation names, addresses concerns about modesty at Mass, and helps those exploring or returning to the Catholic faith with compassion and clarity. Through thoughtful conversations, Patrick encourages listeners to seek hope, connection, and integrity in faith and everyday challenges, while bringing gentle humor and lasting encouragement along the way. Email – Been married for 13 years and just found myself attracted to a co-worker. Should I confess this? (00:47) Kathy – A woman behind me was very irritating. Weeks later, I found out that she has severe dementia. I learned not to judge how someone acts in Church. (08:41) Jim - Please explain the sacredness of the tabernacle and what is inside it? (11:28) Vianney - How can I manage mental illness? (15:05) Latasha - My heart goes out to Vianney and I’m praying for her healing. Thank you, Patrick, because you are so compassionate and gentle. (24:10) Sandy - I find myself in Church judging other women for their lack of modesty. Should I go to the priest and tell him it bothers me? Am I being a prude? (25:28) Ben - When I chose a confirmation saint, I wasn't very discerning, and I picked an archangel venerated in Eastern churches. Can I pray to this saint? (30:33) Chandler - I am an ex-Mormon. I’m trying to figure out how to learn about Catholicism. (35:13) Rob – I’m coming back to Catholicism. Do I have to get married again or can I have my marriage blessed? (44:04) Originally Aired on 05/22/2025

Patrick opens this episode of The Patrick Madrid Show with a heartfelt conversation with Josh, a new Catholic convert from Los Angeles, about the Church's role in a rapidly changing culture and the ongoing impact of the Second Vatican Council. Drawing from decades of study and experience, Patrick explains how historical and cultural forces from the 1960s continue to affect Catholic life today and offers practical advice to new converts about staying spiritually grounded and resisting the pull of online negativity. The episode also touches on timely topics like pharmacy vaccination incentives and the spread of AI-generated misinformation, all while Patrick encourages listeners to focus on faith and community amid modern challenges. Josh – If Vatican 2 happened in the mid-60s, would it have been different especially with the huge cultural shift that happened? (01:05) CVS staff get perks like beach days and donuts for hitting vaccine goals (19:45) John - Is giving the peace sign at mass wrong? (24:08) AI speech on YouTube falsely attributing to Pope Leo XIV (34:16) Kimberly - My daughter died within 18 hours of getting a vaccine shot. Jesus helped me get through this. I had to learn not to become a prisoner. (39:24) Joe - What did the early Christians think of Peter being the Foundation stone of the Church? (43:41) Brian – There is a girl who says she will text me but never does. I see her every time I go to Church. (48:31) Originally Aired on 05/22/2025

There’s a new Pew Research survey revealing that 3 in 10 Americans turn to astrology, tarot cards, or fortune tellers each year, with higher rates among young people and the LGBT community. He offers a direct Catholic perspective on why these practices do not fit with faith and encourages listeners to rely on God rather than superstition. Patrick responds compassionately to callers, including Annie from Las Vegas, who struggles with guilt about someone else’s dishonesty, and a physician who shares his frustration over the Catholic Church’s COVID-19 response. He also comments on news about the possible end of the U.S. penny, listener irritation about cell phones ringing during Mass, and a mother’s worry about her daughter moving in with her boyfriend. A third of Americans consult horoscopes, tarot cards or fortune tellers (00:34) Annie - Am I doing the right thing to refrain from daily mass and communion because of something on my conscience? (07:42) Paul – During Covid, I had my doctor license taken away for 18 months. I finally got it back. The fear generated in Catholic pastors was crazy. Nobody could go to Church because of their cowardice. Why were priests so afraid? (19:51) Dan – We should look at how the Church is supposed to turn other cheek. We need to turn the other cheek. (31:32) Estefan – I’m seeing people bring their cell phones into Church and not turning them off. Should I say something? (37:03) John - Discontinuing pennies. What about sales tax that don't round up to a nickel? (39:38) Amy - My daughter is moving in with her boyfriend. She says she needs to live with her boyfriend first before marrying. (42:05) Domingo - Do you believe in vaccinations? (47:19) Originally Aired on 05/22/2025

In this episode, Thom dives into a surprising and encouraging statistic from the 2023 FACT study—79% of church attenders say that church is “very important” in their lives. With so many articles and headlines announcing the decline of religion in America, this number offers a different perspective—one filled with hope, mission, and responsibility. The data comes from “This Place Means Everything to Me: Key Findings from a National Survey of Church Attenders in Post-Pandemic United States” (2023 FACT study, published by the Hartford Institute for Religion Research). The study is one of the most comprehensive post-pandemic surveys of active churchgoers in the United States. The post The Church Number: 79% The Number of Church Attenders Who Say Church Is “Very Important” to Their Lives appeared first on Church Answers.

St. Bonaventure (1221-1274) continued the legacy of St. Anthony and was the Franciscan counterpart to Aquinas. He's called the second founder of the Franciscans, and the Prince of the Mystics, because he continued the mystical tradition of St. Bernard of Clairvaux, and he preserves for us the mystical spirituality of St. Francis of Assisi, as well as being an important influence on later mystics, such as St. John of the Cross.

He was a Russian peasant who traveled to Mt Athos and became a monk in the Russian Monastery of St Panteleimon. He lived so simply, humbly and quietly that he might be forgotten had not Fr Sophrony (Sakharov) become his spiritual child and, after the Saint's repose, written a book describing his life and teaching: St Silouan of Mt Athos, one of the great spiritual books of our time. It was through Fr Sophrony's efforts that St Silouan was glorified as a Saint.   Following a vision of Christ Himself, St Silouan withdrew to a hermitage to devote himself entirely to prayer; but he was called back to serve as steward to the monastery. Though he now supervised some two hundred men, he only increased his prayers, withdrawing to his cell to pray with tears for each individual worker under his care. For more than fifteen years he struggled with demonic attacks during prayer until he was almost in despair. At this point Christ spoke to him in a vision, saying 'The proud always suffer from demons.' Silouan answered 'Lord, teach me what I must do that my soul may become humble.' To this he received the reply, Keep thy mind in hell, and despair not. Silouan made this his discipline in every moment of his life, and was granted the grace of pure prayer. He said that if he ever let his mind wander from the fire of hell, disruptive thoughts would once again plague him. In his humiliation he was filled with a pervasive love for all — he said many times that the final criterion of true Christian faith is unfeigned love for enemies, and that 'to pray for others is to shed blood.'   St Silouan demonstrates that the Church's true Theologians are those who manifest in their own lives the fruits of the Church's hesychastic spirituality, however insignificant they may appear to the eyes of the world.

For nearly 20 years, Blaine Oborn had an unblemished record as a city manager serving in multiple states. That all changed when he became the city administrator in Oak Harbor, Washington. He assumed his duties as the city was at the very tail end of a wastewater plant project that had tripled in costs from $50 million to $150 million under the leadership of Cathy Rosen, the public works director. She would go on to level unsubstantiated accusations that masked her religious bigotry toward Blaine, a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. These claims were embellish and exaggerated by the publisher of the local paper. She had previously applied for a job with the city and was rejected by Oborn. These horrible, baseless accusations have been amplified in newspaper articles, tainted his Google footprint, and severely hurt him in job searches. In this episode, he seeks to set the record straight and repair the damage done to his reputation.

What is the Church’s teaching on homosexuality? Using both the Scriptures and the Catechism of the Catholic Church, Cale explains why the Church teaches that homosexuality is wrong. Cale also looks at Genesis 20 where Abraham once again lies about Sarah being his wife – this time to King Abimelech. What is a prophet?

When the Word Takes Root: Lessons from St. John Chrysostom Today's Homily occurs on the Feast of St. John Chrysostom . . . . . . and connects the Gospel parable of the Sower with the saint's life and mission. The parable illustrates that the Word of God is abundantly sown, yet its fruitfulness depends on the disposition of the hearer . . . whether hardened, shallow, distracted, or open and rich soil. St. John Chrysostom is presented as an example of “good soil”: rooted deeply in prayer, scripture, and surrender before bearing abundant fruit through eloquent preaching, pastoral reform, and courageous witness. His fearless proclamation, even against imperial power and corrupt clergy, led to exile and suffering, yet his words continued to strengthen the Church. Remembered as the “Golden Mouth,” his lasting fruitfulness demonstrates that true preaching flows from a heart firmly rooted in Christ. The Homily concludes by reminding the faithful that Christ, the Divine Sower, continues to sow himself in the Eucharist, and each believer is called to cultivate soil that allows his Word to take deep root and bear lasting fruit.

In this episode of In Totality, I had the privilege of sitting down once again with Dr. Eric Mason as he shared insights from his upcoming book - Rebranding the Church. Together, we unpacked what it means to live as ambassadors of Christ in a society that's always watching.Dr. Mason shared his perspective about why the church needs to be re-presented to the world, how our daily lives can reflect Christ's ways, and what it looks like to lay down our freedoms for the sake of the gospel. We explored the beauty of enjoyment as a spiritual discipline, the dangers of overindulgence, and how our witness can either draw people closer to Jesus or become a stumbling block in their faith.If you've ever wondered what it means to represent Christ with integrity and truth, questioned how to navigate cultural norms faithfully, or longed to understand the deeper call of being an ambassador for the kingdom, this conversation will speak directly to your heart.Share this with someone who needs the reminder that God isn't after surface appearances, He's after a church rebranded by His holiness, marked by truth, and sent out to reflect His light in a watching world.Visit my Amazon storefront to purchase Rebranding the Church - https://www.amazon.com/shop/immeganashley?ref_=cm_sw_r_apin_aipsfshop_1363892N471VZ9CPZXG7_1&language=en-USSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
