The difficult things we are seeing in the Church and in the world can lead one to lose hope unless we are grounded in the most important aspects of our Catholic Faith. Exorcist Monsignor Charles Pope joins us to discuss why this may be the greatest crisis we have ever seen in the Church.

I will grant peace to their families. 2. They will be enlightened about the Divine Mysteries. 3. I will console them in their pains, and I will accompany them in their work. 4. I will give them as much as they ask for as long as it does not oppose the adorable will of my Divine Son or the sanctification of their souls. 5. I will defend them in their spiritual battles with the infernal enemy and I will protect them at every instant of their lives. 6. I will visibly help them at the moment of their death—they will see the face of their mother. 7. I have obtained this grace from my divine Son, that those who propagate this devotion to my tears and dolors will be taken directly from this earthly life to eternal happiness, since all their sins will be forgiven and my Son and I will be their eternal consolation and joy.

Shannon Foster didn't grow up in a Latter-day Saint home where scriptures were regularly studied—and her father wasn't a member of the Church. But rather than see this as a setback, Shannon considers it one of her greatest blessings. That unique perspective has shaped her ability to relate to others and to inspire confidence in anyone seeking to better understand and love the scriptures. In this episode, Shannon shares her journey and explains why she's so passionate about helping others develop a personal, meaningful relationship with scripture—no matter their background. 1:56- A Home Without Gospel Learning 8:06- The Lord Qualifies 14:05- Compelled to Share 17:18- Scaffolding 22:50- Family Scripture Study 27:25- The Power of Families 34:31- Think Like a Coach 42:12- Imperfect Practice 46:25- What Does It Mean to Be All In the Gospel of Jesus Christ? “I feel like I can stand in my spot and relate and say I was that girl who knew nothing about the scriptures and now I have found great power in the scriptures.” Link:  The Red Headed Hostess guidebooks- https://www.deseretbook.com/category/church-resources_teaching-helps_the-red-headed-hostess/church-resources_teaching-helps_the-red-headed-hostess_guidebooks/

In this episode, I sit down with my friend and founder of Pause Breathwork, Samantha Skelly, for a deeply honest and soulful conversation about evolution, alignment, and faith in both life and business. Samantha shares how her journey as an entrepreneur has transformed into a spiritual assignment—one rooted in artistry, service, and surrender. We talk about what it means to evolve past old versions of success, let go of what no longer feels aligned, and allow business to become a living, breathing expression of who you truly are. We also dive into the importance of slowing down, receiving support, and making peace with change. Samantha opens up about the role faith and prayer have played in her life, her return to her Christian roots, and how she's learned to invite God into her business decisions. This episode is an inspiring reminder that your evolution is sacred, your alignment is your greatest strategy, and peace comes when you finally trust that you are exactly where you're meant to be.

And so no matter if it's relationships, business, what have you, if there's something that just keeps being that spiritual sandpaper for you, you've gotta really ask yourself like, what am I tolerating here? And just simply put, raise the standard.” - Julie Solomon  “  I couldn't see a pathway of it being something else. And I think I had an ego layering on that because my ego was like, “well, surely we can't simplify because then the revenue will drop, and if the revenue drops, then we're not gonna continually grow. And what's that gonna do?” So I had to love fiercely, the part of me that was trying to take over by telling me to keep scaling and what I mean by that is like, not destroy it, not cut it off, not badmouth it, but just love the little girl inside of me that's like, “I wanna keep growing. What if I don't? Who am I gonna upset?” - Samantha Skelly  RESOURCES:

The Church worked very hard to suppress the belief that the dead could be resurrected. They only partly succeeded. Why did the church not want the people and the ancestors to have a relationship? Well, not everyone comes back from the dead. It is written that those souls who have not integrated into the afterlife are known as the Revenant - a reanimated corpse (not a ghost), an undead being from European folklore that returns to the mortal world from the dead, often to seek vengeance or settle unfinished business. This is why Purgatory was created by the Roman Catholic church in the 13th century. There was heaven and hell, and a preserve for the aimless Revenant; this "in-between" place naturally became the residence of the dead who were not resting peacefully.

Nelson, who died one week before the conference convened.

The Church News Podcast is a weekly podcast that invites listeners to make a journey of connection with members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints across the globe. Hosts Jon Ryan Jensen, editor of the Church News, and Church News reporter Mary Richards share unique views of the stories, events, and people who form this international faith.

Daniel Keene, a North Texas small-business owner of Boundaries Coffee, faced intense backlash after a viral X post (now deleted) where he filmed an Indian block party in his suburb and vented frustration over demographic changes, declaring, “We have to cancel the H-1Bs. I want my kids to grow up in America. Not India.”The situation escalated at The Trails Church, where Keene was a member. Elders summoned him and his eight-months-pregnant wife for a multi-hour interrogation, initially over the "uncharitable" post but pivoting to demand repentance for his H-1B stance itself. They scrutinized three years of his X activity, flagged "concerning" posts, and warned of church discipline.Order Against the Waves: Againstthewavesbook.comCheck out Jon's Music: jonharristunes.comTo Support the Podcast: https://www.worldviewconversation.com/support/Become a Patronhttps://www.patreon.com/jonharrispodcastFollow Jon on Twitter: https://twitter.com/jonharris1989Follow Jon on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/jonharris1989/Our Sponsors:* Check out TruDiagnostic and use my code HARRIS for a great deal: https://www.trudiagnostic.comSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/conversations-that-matter8971/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Patrick answers bold listener questions on the Garden of Eden, the destiny of Adam and Eve, and extraordinary biblical lifespans, blending these with heartfelt stories of marriage struggles and spiritual recovery. Surprises pop up as he discusses Catholic teachings on guardian angels, responds to debates about the Latin Mass and Martin Scorsese's saint documentaries, and even shares thoughts on mustache care. Brisk exchanges and raw honesty keep the conversation lively and unscripted. Lupe - Was the Garden of Eve real and did Adam and Eve go to Hell? Vinnie - I have a problem believing that people could live to 900 years old. How was that possible in the Bible? (06:47) Tom - My wife and I were separated 15 years ago, and we totally recovered from this. Surrendering and giving up really helped me. Your show really helped. (13:06) Sal (email) – Fr. Simon said it was okay to name your guardian angel. (20:14) Brother John - That earlier caller is turning the Church into a psychological issue. This is why we need the Confessional and need to acknowledge mortal and venial sin. (25:47) Joyce – Padre Pio named his guardian angel. (26:52) Shawn - Do you have any thoughts on the Martin Scorsese film, The Saints? (29:51) Brian - My dad took 4 years of Latin and ancient Greece. The New Mass doesn't give me any feeling. Ritual gives us tradition. Without the Latin Mass, we lose out on tradition and ritual. (39:30) Josiah - How are you able to keep a perfect mustache? (44:57) Tony - I was diagnosed with prostate cancer. Is praying to more than one saint, ok? (48:39)

Patrick explores the boundaries of selling blessed objects and explains Church teaching on simony while engaging callers about the Trinity and Christ’s divinity. He responds to questions on family faith struggles and examines how Jesus is both God and man, pulling from early Church tradition for insight. The conversation shifts constantly, blending quick humor, direct advice, and moments that prompt deeper reflection. Peter - Is it wrong to sell a blessed item like a Rosary? (01:10) Lucy (email) - If Jesus never said in the New Testament that He was God, why are we so certain? (11:09) Dan - In John 7, who is Jesus talking about when He says, “he that believeth in me”? (23:03) Martine (email) - If he's always existed, "where" was Jesus before he was born? (37:17) Marie - Infant baptism. I understand that this is not licit but could be done. If I baptized my kid on my own (without a priest or deacon) would I have to confess that? (47:51) Originally Aired 08/27/2025

Shannon Wimp Schmidt joins Katie to explore the significance of the papacy, highlighting key teachings and defining moments from the past twelve popes—from Leo XIII at the turn of the twentieth century to Leo XIV today. Together they trace how the papacy has evolved through the personalities, styles, and themes each pope brought to their encyclicals and homilies, showing how the Lord continues to guide his Church. In the end, they consider a personal question: What role does the pope play in our individual faith journeys today?

St. Thomas Aquinas (1225-1274) - Student of St. Albert the Great, and friend of St. Bonaventure, St. Thomas Aquinas brought theology and scholastic philosophy together in a way that remains the standard of Catholic thought to this day. In some ways, St. Thomas can be thought of as a second Augustine, who arguably even surpassed the great father of the Church, and brought Augustine's teaching to a more perfect culmination.  Links Three of St. Thomas' academic sermons are available as audio books on the Catholic Culture website: Beware of the False  https://www.catholicculture.org/commentary/st-thomas-aquinas-beware-false/ Heaven and Earth Will Pass  https://www.catholicculture.org/commentary/st-thomas-aquinas-heaven-and-earth-will-pass/ Send Out Your Spirit  https://www.catholicculture.org/commentary/st-thomas-aquinas-send-out-your-spirit/ Also, check out this interview that St. Thomas' namesake - Thomas Mirus - did on the Catholic Culture Podcast with Matthew Minerd, about the education St. Thomas received and his responsibilities as a master of theology and his academic milieu: https://www.catholicculture.org/commentary/161-vocation-thomas-aquinas-matthew-minerd/ The Classics of Western Spirituality volume on Albert & Thomas: https://www.paulistpress.com/Products/3022-X/albert-and-thomas.aspx And, if you haven't already, check out the episodes on St. Thomas' teacher and mentor, St. Albert the Great, on this Way of the Fathers podcast: Episode 5.17 St. Albert the Great: Universal Doctor: https://www.catholicculture.org/commentary/517-st-albert-great-universal-doctor/ Episode 5.18 St. Albert the Great: The Miracle of His Time: https://www.catholicculture.org/commentary/518-st-albert-great-miracle-his-time/ SIGN UP for Catholic Culture's Newsletter:  https://www.catholicculture.org/newsletters/ DONATE at:  http://www.catholicculture.org/donate/audio Dr. Papandrea's Homepage:  http://www.jimpapandrea.com Dr. Papandrea's latest book is The Original Church: What it Meant - and Still Means - to Be a Christian: https://scepterpublishers.org/collections/new-releases/products/the-original-church-what-it-meant-and-still-means-to-be-a-christian?variant=46258102337713 Dr. Papandrea's YouTube channel, The Original Church: https://www.youtube.com/@TheOriginalChurch Theme Music: Gaudeamus (Introit for the Feast of All Saints), sung by Jeff Ostrowski.

What do you do when intimacy and connection in your marriage start to fade? How can you rekindle the spark, or better yet, keep it burning strong? In this episode, we talk about practical and biblical ways to nurture intimacy in all its forms. When you intentionally protect and prioritize closeness with your spouse, you not only build a marriage you truly enjoy, but you also guard your relationship against the dangers of emotional affairs.   Episode Highlights: Identify the different types of intimacy shared within marriage. The wholeness of your marriage matters. All forms of intimacy must be invested in. Boundaries keep your marriage protected.    Quotes from this episode: Your sex life is a thermometer, not a thermostat—it reflects the health of your relationship, but it can't set it.   When couples neglect emotional and spiritual intimacy, their physical relationship becomes hollow—a beautiful house with no foundation. Sooner or later, the cracks will show.   Without emotional intimacy, sex loses its power to truly bond you together. Without spiritual intimacy, you miss God's vision for marriage—a reflection of Christ and the Church.   If you wouldn't say, do, or share it with your spouse present, don't do it. That's your boundary—protect it fiercely.   If you have nothing to hide, living transparently should be easy—openness is the glue of trust in marriage.   Couple's Conversation Guide: When you think about intimacy in your marriage, which type (physical, emotional, spiritual, or relational closeness) feels the strongest right now? Which could use more attention? How do you personally feel most connected to me—through words, actions, time together, or something else? What boundaries do we need to set (personally and as a couple) to guard our marriage against the threat of emotional affairs? What's one thing you'd love for us to do together that would bring more joy, fun, or connection into our marriage? Mentioned in this Episode: Awesome Marriage is on Instagram!

Mark and Jonathan talk to Aaron and Harshit about their book Prioritizing Missions in the Church and how important it is for the life of the church.

In this episode, we explore Doctrine and Covenants sections 115 through 120—some of the most defining revelations in the history of the early Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. These revelations, given in 1838, officially establish the divinely revealed name of the Church, emphasizing that it must bear the name of Jesus Christ to clearly identify whose Church it is. The Lord also directs the Saints to build up the sacred gathering place of Adam-ondi-Ahman in Missouri—a site tied to ancient prophecy and the future return of the Savior. Through these commands, the Saints are reminded that their work is not only about organizing a church but about preparing a people and a place for the coming of Christ. Sections 119 and 120 introduce the law of tithing, a principle that would bless both individual Saints and the Church collectively. This revelation set a divine pattern of sacrifice and stewardship, where the faithful contribute one-tenth of their increase to sustain the Lord's work on earth. These sections show how the Lord guides His people in both spiritual and temporal matters—establishing identity through His name, unity through sacred gathering places, and consecration through the law of tithing. Together, these revelations reflect the growing maturity of the restored Church and the Lord's ongoing pattern of preparing His Saints for Zion.

In a fallen world, things are not always what they seem to be. Such is the case in 2 Samuel 6, when the Lord kills Uzzah for simply touching the Ark of the Covenant in the wrong fashion. We are drawn to question God - "is this really the God I choose to serve?" In today's episode, we return to Paul's sermon series from the archives, David: A Matter of the Heart. This week, Paul explains that this story is actually a case study about the holiness of God, and that His holiness is our only hope.To hear more sermons from Paul, visit PaulTripp.com/Sermons.

In this vital and eye-opening episode, we speak with Hannah Ashwell from QuitPorn Faith about the complex, often misunderstood topic of sex addiction within the Church—especially when it involves individuals who have offended or are at risk of offending. Hannah shares the most common misconceptions churches hold and how these can hinder true healing and safety.We explore how faith communities can create cultures of openness and accountability while implementing essential safeguarding protocols to protect everyone. Drawing from real-world experience, Hannah offers insight into how churches can balance grace with responsibility, and restoration with necessary boundaries. From practical next steps when someone discloses illegal behavior to examples of churches walking this difficult path well, this conversation provides both courage and clarity.For leaders who feel overwhelmed by the weight of these issues, Hannah offers hope: with the right tools and heart posture, churches can be places of redemption and protection.Resources:More From Hannah AshwellAll Our ToolsJoin A Group!

Stephanie welcomes Lynn Rosenberg, an American Bible teacher and non-profit founder living in Jerusalem. Lynn is also married to Joel Rosenberg, a NYT bestselling author who's been featured on Gospel Spice before. Lynn tells us what it's like to live in Jerusalem today – and what it's been like since October 7, 2023. Lynn's story is a testament to faith enduring through turbulence, the importance of spiritual and practical community, and the power of everyday obedience. Her journey challenges us to find courage, unity, and hope in Christ, to love sacrificially, and to embrace the unique callings God has set before us—whatever our context may be. Lynn Rosenberg's journey begins with her upbringing in New Jersey in a church-going but not deeply faith-rooted family. Her personal faith ignited at Syracuse University, where she met both her husband, Joel, and Christ. From early on, Lynn and Joel felt called to cross-cultural missions, particularly with a heart for Israel, inspired by Joel's Jewish background and Lynn's close friendships with Jewish neighbors. After years of preparation and service in Washington, D.C., they moved to Israel 11 years ago with their four sons. They became Israeli citizens, and transitioned to life in Israel to fulfill their call to ministry. The Israeli culture, while appearing Western, is deeply Middle Eastern, characterized by tribal mentalities, bureaucracy, and a need to assert oneself daily. Navigating systems, integrating children into small believing communities, and language barriers all proved significant challenges. Church community, both Israeli and international, became a lifeline for practical and spiritual support, nurturing friendships and communal prayer. Lynn recounts the days surrounding October 7, 2023—a day that marked unprecedented violence and upheaval in Israel. Despite a sense of increasing peace before the attack, the reality of war shattered normalcy. With sirens wailing, families hunkered down in bomb shelters, and friends on the frontlines. The Joshua Fund, the nonprofit organization Lynn and Joel founded, rapidly mobilized, prioritizing humanitarian aid particularly for vulnerable populations near the Gaza border. Believers displayed extraordinary courage, continuing to deliver aid even under rocket fire, standing as beacons of light in darkness. A central focus of the Joshua Fund is supporting both Israel and her neighbors—including Arab Israelis and Palestinians. By investing in local churches, training, and humanitarian aid, they work to build unity and break down suspicion. The war has intensified collaboration among denominations, bringing unprecedented unity, generosity, and boldness among believers. Despite barriers, including limited access to Christians in Gaza, the Joshua Fund continues to support those in need, relying on partnerships and prayer. Personally, Lynn highlights the importance of seeking God's will daily and recognizing that each day holds prepared “good works” for us to walk in. She encourages abiding in prayer and Scripture, trusting God's sovereignty amidst uncertainty, and fostering radical hospitality and simple, loving neighborliness. For the next generation, she underscores the vital need for biblical wisdom and discernment, especially in an era of increasing complexity and deception. Simplifying faith to loving God and loving one's neighbor becomes both a countercultural and effective response. MORE ABOUT THE JOSHUA FUND https://joshuafund.com/ In this famous passage from the book of Genesis, the Lord promised to bless those who bless the children of Abraham and curse those who curse them. In Matthew 19:19, Jesus instructed His followers to “love your neighbor as yourself.” In Matthew 5:44, Jesus told His disciples to “love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you.” In Matthew 25:31-46, Jesus exhorted His followers to feed the hungry, give water to the thirsty, care for strangers, clothe the naked, care for those who are sick, and visit those in prison. Seeking to obey these biblical commands, the Rosenbergs established a non-profit educational and charitable organization that works closely with Jewish and Christian allies in Israel and the Middle East, as well as Christian allies around the world. As an educational organization, The Joshua Fund has sought to engage Christians globally about God's love and plan for Israel and her neighbors. The Joshua Fund has also worked in the Palestinian Territories, as well as in Israel's neighboring countries.
