Send us a textOur Lady of Akita: Verified Miracle, Marian Warning, Catholic MessageIn the 1970s, at a convent in Akita, Japan, a wooden statue of the Blessed Virgin Mary began to weep human tears. Scientific testing confirmed the fluids were human tears, human sweat, and human blood. Across multiple years, the statue cried 101 times, witnessed by sisters, clergy, medical professionals, and investigators.Sister Agnes Sasagawa, a member of the Handmaids of the Eucharist, received messages from Our Lady calling for prayer, penance, the Rosary, Eucharistic reparation, and fidelity to Catholic teaching. Her medically documented total deafness was instantly healed during Eucharistic adoration on October 13, the anniversary of the final Fatima apparition.After examining scientific reports, witness testimony, theological studies, and documented healings, Bishop John Ito declared the events of Akita to be of supernatural origin and approved devotion to Our Lady of Akita.Support the showSupport this show and get all future episodes by email atwww.kenandjanelle.com
Send us a textIn the shadowed halls of Christendom's earliest centuries, when mighty empires clashed and heresies threatened the very foundations of our faith, a singular voice rose above the din—a voice that would echo through the ages for all who cherish the tangible beauty of our Catholic spiritual heritage. That voice belonged to Saint John Damascene. Known as the steadfast Defender of Icons and a luminous Champion of Incarnational Worship, his fearless testimony helped safeguard the truths that we hold dear, touching not just theologians and clergy, but countless faithful who draw strength and inspiration from the living witness of the saints.At Journeys of Faith, we honor torchbearers like Saint John Damascene, recognizing how powerfully their teachings ripple into our own pilgrimage of faith. Born into a world of political upheaval and religious persecution, John's unwavering love for the Church and the Eucharist became a beacon, guiding the faithful through turbulent storms. He stood resilient against iconoclasts, those who sought to strip Christian worship of its sacred images and incarnational intimacy. Saint John understood that to venerate an icon is not idolatry, but an act of faith—rooted deeply in the mystery of the Incarnation, where God took on flesh and dwelt among us.As Catholic evangelizers, inheritors of a tradition rich with Eucharistic miracles and the radiant examples of the saints, we are called to the same courage and clarity. Through the lens of Saint John Damascene's life and legacy, let us journey together—One Heart, One Mind, One Spirit, With One Vision!—to rediscover the profound beauty of our faith and the essential role that holy images play in drawing us ever closer to Christ.Saint John Damascene CollectionOpen by Steve Bailey Support the showJourneys of Faith brings your Super Saints Podcasts ***Our Core Beliefs*** The Eucharist is the Source and Summit of our Faith."

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!Tired of surface-level hot takes during Advent? We press pause on the news cycle and dive into Scripture's living architecture—how David, Solomon, Isaiah, and John converge to reveal a Kingdom that isn't just future hope but present reality. We walk through the liturgical calendar's wisdom, the shock of John's “hour,” and the way Cana's stone jars unlock Exodus, Numbers, and a new creation pattern. Along the way we confront a popular error: the idea that Christ hasn't yet established His Kingdom. If the Gospel announces “the Kingdom is at hand,” then the Church is not a holding pattern—it's the King's reign made visible in Word, sacrament, and a Eucharistic temple.We explore Marian typology without sentimentality: Jeremiah's hidden ark, the overshadowing glory cloud, and why reverence for Mary clarifies, rather than distracts from, the Incarnation. We trace the branch from Jesse through Nazareth, the bread of the presence through David to the Eucharist, and Nathaniel's fig tree across the prophets. Typology isn't trivia; it's how Scripture trains our eyes to see Christ fulfilling every promise. And because grace aims at real life, we talk about family prayer, small rituals that carry children through hard years, and the demanding joy of fatherhood as priestly leadership—authority as sacrifice, not dominance.If you've felt disoriented by church conflicts or exhausted by constant outrage, Advent offers a better way: return to the story, receive the King, and let the calendar shape your days. Come hear how heaven “colonizes” earth through the Church, why obedience grows from grace, and how the Kingdom breaks into ordinary homes through beauty, memory, and the sacraments.

Today's Gospel (Matthew 8:5–11) introduces us to the humility and faith of the centurion — the same words we repeat at every Mass: “Lord, I am not worthy that you should enter under my roof…”  On this second day of Peace on Earth, Fr. Jonathan Meyer invites you to enter Advent with a Eucharistic heart. Christ came 2,000 years ago, He will come again in glory, and He comes to us every single day in the Most Blessed Sacrament.  Today's reflection asks: • How will your Advent become more Eucharistic? • Where is Christ inviting you to dwell with Him? • How can you deepen your love for Jesus truly present — Body, Blood, Soul, and Divinity?  We're reminded of the many ways we can allow the Eucharist to shape our Advent: • praying with the daily Mass readings • visiting Jesus in Eucharistic Adoration • spending time in silence • entering a small group • serving in liturgical ministries • or simply sitting in the presence of Christ in the tabernacle  “Behold, I am with you always, until the end of the age.” (Mt 28:20) He is here. He is with us. How will you let Him transform your Advent? Share this video with someone who could be encouraged today. And if you haven't signed up yet:
Step past the beige sparse walls and into a Sunday that sparks big questions about worship, history, and truth. Jeremy Jeremiah reacts to the video that walks you through an LDS sacrament meeting—from the first hymn to the closing prayer—and hold its practices up against the standards of historic Christianity. Along the way, we unpack why a service that looks like a college lecture can feel familiar, why borrowed hymns matter more than they seem, and how bread and water signal a deeper break with the ancient Eucharistic faith.We walk through a full LDS Sunday service, from hymns to sacrament, and compare it with historic Christian worship. Along the way, we challenge the classroom model of church and invite listeners to examine claims of continuity, sacrament, and truth.• tour of an LDS chapel and layout• critique of borrowed hymnody and history• sacrament of bread and water contrasted with Eucharist• talk-centered format versus sacramental worship• breakdown of Sunday school and primary programs• analysis of American church growth dynamics• invitation to explore historic Orthodox ChristianityWe take time to examine the structure: youth speakers delivering short talks, adults cycling through classes, and children moving between singing time and instruction. The building tells a story too: chapel, classrooms, nursery, and a cultural hall that doubles as a gym, all optimized for programs and teaching. That order can be comforting, but we ask whether a church centered on talks can replace a church centered on sacrament. If the early Church guarded the Eucharist as the heart of worship, what does it mean when the centerpiece is reimagined with plastic cups and water?This episode makes a strong claim: form reflects belief. The symbols you see—or don't see—the bread and wine you receive—or don't—shape what you believe about Christ, grace, and the church's purpose. We explore why Orthodox Christianity insists on continuity with the apostles, the fathers, and the councils; why creed, liturgy, and iconography are not add-ons; and why a living tradition offers more than inspiration—it offers participation in the life of God. Whether you're LDS, curious, or wrestling with where to belong, this is an invitation to test claims by worship as much as by words.If this conversation challenged you or sparked new curiosity, follow the show, share it with a friend, and leave a review with your biggest question or insight.

Advent invites a strange and holy tension: we live in the now and the not yet. There is longing and preparation, waiting and hope. This year the invitation is simple and radical — make room for the One who wants to fill every space in our hearts.Here are practical, gentle ways to create margins for prayer this season:Read the introduction of In Time, the BIS Advent Devotional. Reading the introduction before the season helps shape your attention.Invite one friend. Personal invitations change everything. Ask someone to do the devotional with you. This makes them feel seen AND it anchors your own commitment.Protect a prayer space. Carve out a chair, a corner, or a bedside table where you consistently meet God. Small rituals — a candle, an image, holy water — help your body remember what your heart already knows.Try daily Mass. Even one extra day of Eucharistic presence can re-orient your life. The Eucharist is a meal; God sets a table daily for His children. If logistics feel impossible, start small and be resolutely determined.Use worshipful music to re-center. When you struggle to begin prayer, play contemplative worship or instrumental tracks that point your attention toward God rather than yourself.Set an alarm or rearrange your schedule. Small structural choices — an alarm, waking earlier, or shifting a routine — make space for consistent union with God.Making room is often hard. Family dynamics, work, and fatigue make silence feel impossible. Yet hardness is not the same as wrong. Resistance trains and strengthens us. The spiritual life includes real discipline — but the discipline is always ordered to intimacy.“Just because it's hard doesn't mean that it's wrong.”Check out the whole episode and share how you're going to dive into this upcoming Advent Season!Get your Advent books: Women | Men | Kids

Friends of the Rosary,Today, November 27, is Thanksgiving Day in the United States. In 1621, colonists in New England gave thanks to God for his abundant mercies and blessings. This became a tradition, and in 1863, Thanksgiving Day was proclaimed a legal holiday.It's worth noting that some historians believe the first Thanksgiving in America was a Catholic Mass held 50 years before the Plymouth settlement. These pilgrims were preceded by Spanish settlers in what became Florida. And that first "Thanksgiving" was Eucharistic.Anyway, today the Catholic Church celebrates Mass, asking that each person's gratitude to God may bear fruit in loving service to neighbor.Today is also the day of Our Lady of the Miraculous Medal, recalling when the Blessed Mother appeared to St. Catherine Labouré in 1830 and revealed the images of the medal to her.Ave Maria!Come, Holy Spirit, come!To Jesus through Mary!Here I am, Lord; I come to do your will.Please give us the grace to respond with joy!+ Mikel Amigot w/ María Blanca | RosaryNetwork.com, New YorkEnhance your faith with the new Holy Rosary University app:Apple iOS | New!

Today's Readings: https://bible.usccb.org/bible/readings/112625.cfmAs we reach the final days of the liturgical year, the Church invites us to lift our eyes toward the ultimate realities: Christ's return, the purification of the world, and God's unshakeable plan for His people. Fr. Chris reminds us that the Scriptures, the Catechism, and the Church-approved Marian apparitions all speak with one voice: we are already living in the “last hour” (CCC 670), and yet God's mercy remains our refuge and our hope.From Akita to La Salette, Fatima to Quito, Heaven has warned of chastisements—but always with a mother's plea: If you pray, if you repent, if you return to God, the course of history can change. The future is not fixed. Divine Mercy is God's final outreach before His justice, as Jesus told St. Faustina: “Mankind will not have peace until it turns with trust to My mercy” (Diary, 300). These messages are not meant to terrify but to awaken, calling each of us to deeper prayer, conversion, and fidelity to the sacraments.Fr. Chris breaks open what Heaven asks of us in these times: trust in Divine Mercy; a Eucharistic life; confession; consecration to Jesus through Mary; the Rosary and Chaplet; fasting; accepting our daily crosses; and leading others to Christ through Mary's maternal guidance. These are not extraordinary tasks—they are the ordinary path to holiness, given with extraordinary urgency. The Triumph of the Immaculate Heart and the Era of Peace will come, but God invites us to participate in their arrival through our own response.Now is the time to turn back to the Lord. Now is the time to pray. Now is the time to choose trust over fear. Heaven has spoken—and its message is mercy.#marian #marians #marianfathers #marianhelpers #divinemercy #thedivinemercy #catholic #catholicism #romancatholic #romancatholicism#frchrisalar #endtimes #fatima #akita #lasaLette #divinemercyplus #catholictiktok #eucharist #rosary #chapletofdivinemercy #catechism #secondcoming ★ Support this podcast ★

"Asking for proof of a miracle is like demanding proof of the proof; miracles are the proof." Sponsor: https://catholicmatch.com/ Support the channel by visiting: https://brianholdsworth.ca/support Responding to a question by @GospelSimplicity #Miracles function as God's own verification system: events that exceed natural explanation and require no specialized knowledge to understand. #Eucharistic miracles, especially those scientifically examined and repeatedly revealing AB blood and living heart tissue, serve as external, divine endorsements of the Catholic Church's sacramental claims.

Recording on the move along the Adriatic, the guys sit down in Italy with their spiritual guide and friend Fr. Stuart Crevecour to talk about Eucharistic adoration—what it is, why it matters, and how to begin. From stories of Eucharistic miracles in Cascia and Orvieto to practical advice for dads bringing kids to the chapel, this episode explores how adoration “holds a moment of the Mass” so Christ can transform our week. Along the way: pilgrimage anecdotes, incorrupt saints, and a few dad-joke detours.Segment GuideOn the Road (and Sea): Why This Episode Is DifferentFirst-ever episode recorded in transit—pilgrimage vibes, College GameDay energy, and what a Jubilee year in Italy feels like.Eucharistic Miracles: From Casual Irreverence to Deep ConversionThe bleeding breviary in Cascia and the miracle preserved in Orvieto become cautionary tales—and catalysts—for reverence and faith.What Adoration Is (and Isn't)Fr. Stuart offers a simple frame: adoration as a moment of the Mass held in contemplation—the elevation “stretched” so we can gaze and be changed.Does It Really Do Anything? Why GoFrom “just try it” to “I can't live without my hour,” we hear how steady time before the monstrance re-centers a life and renews prayer.Awkward at First: How to Start a Holy HourBring a rosary or a good spiritual book. Expect silence to feel long. Keep going. Over time, conversation gives way to presence.Spiritual Communion: When You Can't ReceiveMaking a spiritual communion at home or in church keeps us oriented toward the tabernacle—especially helpful in seasons of waiting or constraint.Benediction: A Different Kind of BlessingWhy the blessing at the end of adoration is unique: you're being blessed by Christ himself, truly present in the Host.Family Adoration (Without the Panic)Practical ideas: parish “family holy hours,” short come-and-go windows, and training kids gently in reverence (yes, even page-turning).If Your Parish Doesn't Have AdorationHow to ask your pastor for a weekly hour or occasional exposition—and ways laity can help make it happen.From Medieval Piety to Today's RenewalHow devotion blossomed after Corpus Christi and grew again in recent decades—feeding vocations, parish life, and personal holiness.Key TakeawaysAdoration deepens Communion. It doesn't replace the Mass; it disposes us to receive the Eucharist more fruitfully.Start small, stay steady. Twenty minutes grows into an hour; over time, you won't want to miss it.Bring the kids. Create kid-friendly windows or family hours; let children encounter Jesus and learn chapel habits gradually.Spiritual communion matters. If you can't receive sacramentally, orient yourself to the tabernacle and keep showing up.Benediction blesses uniquely. The blessing is given with Christ himself, not merely by the priest.Memorable Lines“Adoration is a moment of the Mass held in contemplation.”“You can't outgive the Lord—show up and let Him do the work.”“Hang out with Jesus often; we become like the people we're with.”“Correct the [Eucharistic] abuses, but don't throw out the baby with the bathwater.”How to Begin a Holy Hour (Simple Plan)Arrive and acknowledge: a slow Sign of the Cross; “Lord, I'm here.”Read briefly (5–10 min): a Gospel passage or trusted spiritual...

Love to hear from you; “Send us a Text Message”A feast day, a friend, and a fight worth entering. We set the stage with Saint John Paul II, the Eucharist, and Our Lady of Fatima, then welcome John Preiss, a Catholic convert and director of the Fatima Family Apostolate, to share how a quiet hour before the Blessed Sacrament can upend a life, launch a mission, and heal a home. John's story moves from Lutheran roots and cassette-tape apologetics to a providential friendship with Fr. Robert J. Fox, the beloved author and youth leader who formed generations through Fatima. A double “bell” moment in adoration confirmed John's call to serve and eventually steward Fr. Fox's legacy through a museum, a family-focused apostolate, and a renewed edition of a rich book on the Eucharist.Together we trace the thread: why Jesus' words “This is my body” demand a response; how adoration calms anxiety and clarifies decisions; and why the final battle over marriage and the family calls for fathers present at home, mothers rooted in hope, and children formed by truth. If your heart feels restless, if your home feels thin, or if you're searching for clarity in a loud world, this conversation offers a simple path: sit before Jesus, ask boldly, listen deeply, and act faithfully. Find the Fatima Family Apostolate at fatimafamily.org, and get Fr. Fox's book, Eucharist, Heaven and Earth Meet via Sophia Institute Press If this moved you, subscribe, share it with a friend, and leave a review to help others find their way back to the Eucharistic heart of the Church.Here are the links to Jack's latest Substack : The Plan of Life and the Christian Vocation: To Love as God Loves and Sergeant Columban Meets Padre Pioat X https://x.com/JP2RenewalSupport the show

In this episode of The Latin Prayer Podcast, we explore the Maremagnum devotion, often confused with the unauthenticated “9 Prayers.” Instead, we focus on the authentic 7 Prayers of St. Gregory, a powerful set of meditations on the Passion of Jesus Christ. These prayers, preserved in medieval manuscripts and long recommended for Catholic devotion, each reflect on a mystery of Christ's suffering, death, resurrection, and glory. Join us in praying this traditional Catholic devotion in English, with structure and context explained. Each prayer is followed by an Our Father and a Hail Mary, guiding the faithful in deeper reflection and love for our Lord's Passion. Perfect for Holy Week, First Fridays, or any time you wish to unite with the suffering Christ through Catholic meditations, Latin prayer traditions, and Eucharistic spirituality.

How does God actually define worship in Scripture and the early Church? Modern Christianity often equates worship with sermons or emotionally moving music, but is this what Scripture and tradition teach? This catechesis digs deep into the biblical and historical roots of Christian worship. Drawing on the Old Testament sacrificial system, the words of Christ at the Last Supper, and the testimony of the early Church Fathers, we explore the true nature of worship as understood by the apostles and saints. You'll learn how worship in the Bible is always sacrificial, culminating in the Eucharist, not preaching. Discover why the Mass is not a Catholic invention but the divinely instituted fulfillment of ancient worship. This episode provides a rich theological and historical case for why true worship must be centered on the Eucharistic sacrifice, Christ's body and blood, made present at every Mass.
