In this New Year's Eve special of Breaking History, Matt Ehret flies solo to close out 2025 with an extended, classroom-style presentation focused on what he describes as the intellectual, moral, and psychological traps shaping the road ahead. Matt frames the episode around themes of classical tragedy, mob psychology, and the loss of sovereignty, arguing that societies are repeatedly steered into fear-based thinking that leads people to participate in their own destruction. He examines the construction of modern enemy narratives, particularly surrounding China, Russia, and global war rhetoric, drawing on statements from figures such as George Soros, Steve Bannon, and U.S. national security officials. The episode then moves into a deep historical exploration of transhumanism, eugenics, and ideological convergence between technocratic elites and religious eschatology, tracing figures like Julian Huxley, Pierre Teilhard de Chardin, Bertrand Russell, and the Jesuit tradition. Matt concludes by urging viewers to raise their standards of thinking, reject simplistic narratives, and actively engage their reason and moral judgment as 2026 approaches.

Each of us is presented with the same vocation as Mary. God says to you and to me, "Make my Son present in the world. Forgive sins. Bring healing. Live with faith that my love is stronger than your death. By word and deed, assure the world of my love."About the Speaker: Father William J Grimm is a Maryknoll Missioner of 40 year's experience in Asia-mostly Japan, Hong Kong and Cambodia.For news in and about the Church in Asia, visit www.ucanews.com  For news in and about the Church in Asia, visit www.ucanews.comTo contribute please visit www.ucanews.com/donateOn Twitter Follow Or Connect through DM at : twitter.com/ucanewsTo view Video features please visit https://www.youtube.com/@ucanews

In Don't Forget We're Here Forever (Bloomsbury) Lamorna Ash, author of the coming-of-age memoir cum anthropological study of the Cornish fishing industry Dark, Salt, Clear, visits Evangelical youth festivals, Quaker meetings, a silent Jesuit retreat along the Welsh coastline and a monastic community in the Inner Hebrides to investigate, through interviews and personal reflections, what drives young people in the twenty-first century to embrace Christianity. Poet Seán Hewitt writes ‘Humane, curious and unexpectedly moving, Lamorna Ash's book is as much an account of the human condition as it is an investigation of faith. Quietly radical in its empathy, this is a book I have waited years and years to read, without even knowing it.' Lamorna Ash was in conversation with James Butler, contributing editor at the London Review of Books.

Most of us flip to January 1 without a second thought, but that date only works because Pope Gregory XIII fixed a 1,600-year drift in the old Roman calendar. The problem wasn't just inconvenience—it threw Easter off by ten days, threatening the Church's ability to celebrate Christ's resurrection on the right Sunday. Gregory convened Jesuit astronomers, skipped ten days in 1582, and gave the world a calendar accurate to within a day every 3,300 years. Far from opposing science, the Church led it, proving faith and reason walk the same calendar page. A perfect New Year reminder that Catholicism still orders the time we live in.

How did the Catholic Church respond when Luther's hammer struck the church door? In this Christmas Day finale, Dr. Alan Strange and Jared Luttjeboer explore the other side of the Reformation story: Rome's counter-offensive. From the rise of the Jesuits as the Pope's "shock troops" to the monumental Council of Trent that would define Catholic theology for years to come, you'll learn how the Catholic Church navigated one of its greatest crises. Was it genuine reform or strategic resistance? The answer might surprise you. This episode also traces the surprising connections between 16th-century debates and the Catholic Church of today, and reveals why these centuries-old decisions continue to have relevance in modern Christianity.

Every year we take out the nativity. We arrange it carefully. Mary. Joseph. A baby in a manger. It feels sacred—one of the last spaces in our world left untouched. But contemporary retellings challenge that calm. This year in Dedham, the Holy Family was removed and kept in the sanctuary for protection from ICE. In Evanston, the baby Jesus wrapped in emergency thermal blankets, his hands bound with zip ties. A few years ago in Bethlehem, a Lutheran pastor placed the Christ child on bomb rubble. We demand these displays be removed. But what if the real danger isn't the frame we construct—traditional crib or contemporary protest? What if it's that we're so busy fixing on one perfect pageant or one protest image that we miss the actual context of Jesus' birth? We assume Mary and Joseph were turned away. Luke doesn't say that. The Holy Family is welcomed into a warm home, pressed shoulder to shoulder with people doing all they can to make space. The house owner says: this is all we have. And it's accepted. God is born there. Ricardo tells us in this surprise Christmas Eve homily: God does not wait for us to clear space. He enters even when lives are full, when schedules are packed. Still, room is found. That's the nativity we are living and called to live. This is Ricardo's final episode before moving to Rome in January to join the Jesuits' international communications team. He'll continue hosting Preach from there. We're taking a brief break and will return just before Ash Wednesday with a new Lenten series.

Gospel Reflection by Father Bill GrimmToday we remember and celebrate the fact that we can know God's glory and power not as some sort of information, but as a person. So, on Christmas Day we move from the story to the program, from what happened long ago to our vocation today.About the Speaker: Father William J Grimm is a Maryknoll Missioner of 40 year's experience in Asia-mostly Japan, Hong Kong and Cambodia.For news in and about the Church in Asia, visit www.ucanews.com  For news in and about the Church in Asia, visit www.ucanews.comTo contribute please visit www.ucanews.com/donateOn Twitter Follow Or Connect through DM at : twitter.com/ucanewsTo view Video features please visit https://www.youtube.com/@ucanews

For you eleventh-hour Christmas shoppers out there, have I got a treat for you. There's a new book out from Loyola Press, the second volume in an increasingly essential collection of Ignatian spirituality readers. This one is, aptly named, “An Ignatian Spirituality Reader: Contemporary Writings on St. Ignatius of Loyola, the Spiritual Exercises, Discernment and More—Volume II.” The first of these volumes was crucial for my own formation in the Ignatian tradition, covering key topics like the life of St. Ignatius, tools for discernment and ways to pray in the Ignatian tradition. I quote this book all the time. That's why I was so excited to get my hands on this new volume. Some of those classic topics are there—discernment, Ignatius' life, and more—but we get chapters on racial justice, caring for the environment and the role of the imagination in the Exercises. We hear, too, from a wide ranging array of voices and experiences, adding to the richness of this edition. (I even have a chapter in there on the Two Standards and social media.) And so, today we're going to hear about this book from two of the editors who worked on it. But more importantly, we're going to hear why Ignatian spirituality continues to matter in our world—and what it has to offer this moment. Fr. Mark Mossa is a professor of religious studies at Loyola University of New Orleans and a Jesuit priest. He serves as program director of the Canizaro Center for Catholic Studies and is the author of “Already There: Letting God Find You” and “Saint Ignatius of Loyola The Spiritual Writings.” Lori Stanley is the executive director of the Loyola Institute for Spirituality in Orange, CA. She is the first layperson to hold the role. In 2020 she was appointed to the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops anti-racism taskforce for the state of California, and is a collaborator with the Jesuit Antiracism Sodality and the Jesuit West Collaborative for Racial Equity. Both Lori and Fr. Mark are real founts of Ignatian wisdom—and I know you'll enjoy our conversation.

Hunter Biden is an American attorney, businessman, and author and the son of President Joe Biden. Born in Delaware and shaped by profound personal tragedies and a diverse career in finance, policy, and international ventures. His mother and sister passed away in a car accident when he was young, and his brother, who survived the accident, later passed at age 46 from brain cancer. Married to Melissa Cohen, with whom he has one child. He graduated with a Bachelor of Arts degree in history from Georgetown University and earned a Juris Doctor degree from Yale Law School, before working briefly as a Jesuit volunteer in Portland, Oregon, and transitioning into banking and politics. Biden built his early career at MBNA America, then served at the United States Department of Commerce, focusing on e-commerce policy during the Clinton administration. In 2001, he co-founded the lobbying firm Oldaker, Biden & Belair, which worked on issues including online gambling. He served as a board member of Amtrak and is a founding partner of Rosemont Seneca Partners, an investment and advisory firm. He previously was on the board of BHR Partners, a China-based private equity firm, and from 2014 to 2019, he served on the board of Burisma Holdings, a Ukrainian energy company owned by Mykola Zlochevsky, amid political investigations. In 2013, Biden joined the U.S. Navy Reserve as an ensign, but was discharged in 2014. Biden has publicly admitted to struggles with addiction, detailed in his 2021 memoir Beautiful Things, and has been sober since 2019. He faced public controversies, including the 2018 laptop scandal, and was under federal criminal investigation for tax matters and firearm possession. In 2024, he pleaded guilty to failing to pay $1.4 million in taxes from 2016 to 2019 on foreign income, which he spent on drugs and luxuries. In April 2025, President Joe Biden issued a pardon clearing Hunter of his federal gun and tax convictions. Biden continues to advocate for awareness of addiction through his personal story of recovery and resilience.

By now most everyone has heard the term “NWO” or “New World Order” — but few actually understand the true puppetmasters behind the scenes. The bible tells us clearly where Satan gave the continuation of his earthly throne, and students of history know that all roads, ultimately, read to Rome. Today I sit down with veteran and author Darryl Eberhart to discuss secret societies and their subversive movements. This is a public episode.

In 1 John 5verses1-5 we are told the source of overcoming the world - by the faith of the son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me. And by that faith I live. An early Christadelphian writer, John Thomas said, that this was by a faith, which works by love and purifiers the soul (life). John Thomas was alluding to the early verses of Galatians 5. The Apostle John tells us that such a belief is evidence of our divine begetting. And, for us, it is the assurance ("by this we know") that God is with us. We can be more than conquerors through Him who loves us (Romans 8). The work, spoken of in chapter 2, is not about our love, but we do love the Father with all of our heart. And this love of the Father which impels us was the motive force of the life of the Son of God. Read Romans 8verses31-39 slowly and pause and ponder. Verses 6-12 provide testimony concerning the Son of God. Our Lord Jesus who came by water and blood - the water in which he was immersed at his baptism and the water of the Word of God with which his mind was saturated; and the blood of his sacrificial offering of himself. This offering was sanctified by the Word of God and prayer and pleased his Father. John is alluding to his witnessing of the crucifixion (John 19verses34-37). Verse 7 from the ESV reads, and I quote in full, "For there are three that testifyverses". Most of the better translations recognise the insertion into the text of additional words which aren't found in most of the older manuscripts. The additional words used in the KJV (and some other versions are admitted by most modern translations to be spurious and added by a Jesuit monk, Immanuel Tapsensis). Verse 8 identifies the three witnesses to our Lord's divine Sonship as - the Spirit, the water and the blood. Under the law at least two corroborating witnesses were needed to determine truth. John affirms total agreement among these witnesses. Additionally, God bore testimony, Matthew 3verses15-17, to His Son. And only in His Son, and through His Son's work, we have life. From verses 13-21 the beloved disciple John has written these things for our assurance ("that we may know"). We have known and believed upon the name above every name (Philippians 2verses9-11), and the only name in which there is salvation (Acts 4verses12). And through continuance in this Name salvation is assured. John repeats that the Father's ear is ever open to His children's pleas. Verses 16-17 reiterates that when we love the brethren we will help them (as they will likewise help us) when we stumble (Galatians 6verses1-5). Such advice and correction will prevent rejection at the coming judgment of our Lord Jesus Christ. But, for the habitual and lawless sinner, who has abandoned any attempt to continue walking in the light there remains "no offering for sin" (Hebrews 10verses26-39). Being begotten by God, through His Word (1 Peter 1verses22-25), we overcome in faith and walk in the way of His commandments. The world and its ways allure, but cannot conquer us. Finally, says John, "Keep yourself from idols" - a specific allusion to the Ten Commandments (especially numbers 1 and 10 which bookend all the others). Keeping ourselves from idols is about the tendency within our human nature to always look after ourselves before applying ourselves to living according to the ways of our Almighty Father.Thanks for joining us - we pray you found these comments helpful in your appreciation of God's words, join again tomorrow

Patrick brings listeners straight into Catholic conversations, responding to Carol’s heartfelt question about balancing the story of Santa with faith, and sharing why passing along festive traditions won’t drive children away from the Church. Stories of Blessed Miguel Pro’s boldness electrify the hour, while Patrick fields real-time questions about burial customs, Jesuit history, and modern Church practices. Every moment brims with honesty, wit, and a dash of mariachi music, as Patrick examines everyday faith from unique angles. Carol (email) - I want to celebrate Advent and Christmas with the right orientation toward Christ's birth, but I am beginning to think that leading my children to believe in some aspects of Christmas traditions, especially for what young people believe, might in the future lead them away from Christ. (00:48) Ron - Why isn't anything mentioned about Blessed Miguel Pro? (11:08) Joe - Is it true that Pope Leo made a prayer room for the Muslims at the Vatican? (20:13) Joshua - What is the difference between being embalmed and not being embalmed? How does the Church view this? (30:03) George - Embalming practices: I remember reading that we should be faced more gruesomely with the reality of our death and not to gloss over it. (38:28) James - Who are the Jesuits and how could I find out more about them? (41:41) Maria Theresa - Do we have to fast on Ember Days if we are having a Christmas gathering? (43:54) Elizabeth - You were opposed to embryo adoption, yet the Church hasn't ruled this out. (46:53)

Send us a textA million stories rest under the trees of Père Lachaise, and some of them still move. We sit down with curator and author-photographer Benoît Galliot to walk the avenues of Paris's most visited cemetery and discover why it feels so alive. From neo-gothic chapels and art nouveau tombs to foxes raising kits among ivy, this tour blends cultural history with urban ecology in a way that surprises and soothes.Benoît opens the gate on a distinctly French approach to burial: time-bound concessions that allow families to share space across generations and, when abandoned, make room for new remembrance. He explains how careful reclamation keeps the cemetery from becoming a frozen museum and why that policy matters in a dense city. Along the way, we talk about the book that sparked this conversation—full of tender photos of foxes, birds, and statuary—and the unexpected comfort wildlife brings to grieving families.We also meet the man behind the name: Père La Chaise, a Jesuit confessor to Louis XIV, whose association with the land shaped its identity long before 1804. Benoît shares his own path from a family of stonemasons to law to public service, eventually becoming curator and living on site with his children. No ghosts here—just quiet nights, the rustle of wings, and a renewed sense that memory can coexist with growth. Come for the legends of Chopin, Oscar Wilde, and Jim Morrison; stay for the everyday life that makes this place breathe.If this journey moved you, follow and review the show, share it with a friend planning a trip to Paris, and subscribe so you never miss our next conversation.   Follow Me at https://www.bookclues.comYou can find Benoit Gallot and the picture of Pere laChaise cemetary at Instagram @la_vie_au_cimitiere

SECOND HOUR 10-1015 The National Security Strategy and the First Island Chain: Colleague Steve Yates analyzes the National Security Strategy's focus on the "first island chain" and deterrence against China's bullying of Japan and the Philippines, noting the CCP's obsession with WWII-era Japan for propaganda fails to resonate regionally as neighbors face modern Chinese aggression and grey zone tactics. 1015-1030 Nvidia Chip Sales to China Raise National Security Concerns: Colleague Brandon Weichert reports on the Trump administration approving Nvidia H200 chip sales to China while taking a 25% cut, warning this transactional approach compromises national security by aiding China's military AI, signaling a shift from hawkish policies to favoring business interests like soybeans. 1030-1045 SpaceX Dominance and the Golden Dome Defense Project: Colleague Bob Zimmerman highlights SpaceX's dominance with record-breaking booster reuse and launch frequency compared to rivals, discussing the secretive "Golden Dome" defense project, defects on the Orion capsule's hatch threatening the Artemis mission, and Airbus surprisingly choosing a Chinese satellite constellation for in-flight internet. 1045-1100 Cosmological Crises and Mars Rover Progress: Colleague Bob Zimmerman details cosmological crises including the "Hubble tension" where expansion rates conflict and a baffling 7-hour gamma-ray burst, reporting on Comet Tsuchinshan-ATLAS images confirming it is a comet rather than a spacecraft, and the Perseverance rover moving toward promising mining terrain on Mars.           THIRD HOUR 1100-1115 The 1605 Gunpowder Plot and Catholic Desperation: Colleague Claire Jackson explains the 1605 Gunpowder Plot as a desperate attempt by Catholics, frustrated by James I's retention of penal laws and peace with Spain, to destroy the Protestant establishment, with the plotters aiming to kill the king and install a puppet Catholic monarch amidst the ensuing chaos. 1115-1130 The Mirror of Great Britain and James I's Violent Childhood: Colleague Claire Jackson explains the "Mirror of Great Britain" jewel symbolizing James I's union plans, though it was destroyed during the Civil Wars, detailing his violent childhood in Scotland, his father Darnley's murder, and his separation from his mother Mary Queen of Scots, which shaped his intellectual upbringing. 1130-1145 The Hampton Court Conference and the King James Bible: Colleague Claire Jackson describes how James I convened the Hampton Court Conference to resolve religious differences, resulting in the King James Bible, highlighting his unique role as an author of works like Basilikon Doron, using print to converse with subjects and establish the divine right of kings. 1145-1200 James I as Ecumenicist Amid Confessional Complexity: Colleague Claire Jackson portrays James I as an ecumenicist seeking accommodation, provided Catholics recognized his temporal authority via an Oath of Allegiance, noting he faced a "confessional complexity" ruling Protestant Scotland and England alongside Catholic Ireland, aiming to isolate radical Jesuits from the loyal majority.

James I as Ecumenicist Amid Confessional Complexity: Colleague Claire Jackson portrays James I as an ecumenicist seeking accommodation, provided Catholics recognized his temporal authority via an Oath of Allegiance, noting he faced a "confessional complexity" ruling Protestant Scotland and England alongside Catholic Ireland, aiming to isolate radical Jesuits from the loyal majority. 1897

Welcome, my devilish fiends! In 1730, the trial of Catherine Cadiere exploded into one of the most notorious scandals of 18th-century France. What began as a confession between a young woman and her Jesuit director spiraled into accusations of seduction, manipulation, and demonic influence. Courts, clergy, and entire communities were suddenly forced to choose sides as the case blurred the line between spiritual guidance and exploitation. In this episode, we trace how a private relationship became a public fury. ****************Sources & Further Reading:The Case of Mrs. Mary Catharine Cadière, Against Father John-Baptist Girard.

Set in present-day, a disgraced former Secret Service office and a Jesuit professor join forces to delve into the mysteries surrounding the events of November 22, 1963. Fixated on deciphering the conspiracies behind the history-changing assassination, they are oblivious to the fact that the cabal is still active—and may face an end as bloody as the carnage in Dealey Plaza. Will they be able to uncover the truth in time? Or will they become two more footnotes in history? Chris Hauty was born in 1956 in San Antonio, Texas, and raised in Delaware, a geographic and cultural relocation made more tolerable by virtue of his relative youth and an obsession with Greek mythology. He graduated from Reed College, in Portland, Oregon, then moved to New York, where he supported his playwriting habit as a bike messenger and graphic artist. His plays produced Off-Off-Broadway included South of American Business and Shut Eye, Big Mouth. The sale of his first screenplay, Don Coyote, to 20th Century Fox prompted a move to Los Angeles. Employed for the last thirty years as a screenwriter, he has worked for every major movie studio, in nearly all genres, and in collaboration with Hollywood professionals ranging from Mel Gibson to Jessica Alba. #chrishauty #authorpodcast #speakingofwriterspodcast #podcast

Friends of the Rosary,Today, December 3, the Church celebrates the feast of St. Francis Xavier (1506-1552), one of the Church's most illustrious missionaries.Born in the castle of Xavier in Navarre, Spain, in 1525, he was from a noble Basque family. In 1534, he went to Paris, where he taught philosophy after obtaining his master's degree, met St. Ignatius of Loyola, and was enrolled as one of the first seven Jesuits.With Ignatius, he received Holy Orders in Venice in 1537. In 1540, he was sent to evangelize India.

The saints reveal the fulfillment of Christ's promises. As I promised a couple episodes back, we want to treat you to a series of reflections on the particular witness of particular saints through a series of episodes on our podcast. These episodes follow from the wildly popular “Saturdays with the Saints” lecture series we host each year on Notre Dame's campus. For one hour on the morning of Notre Dame home football games, a scholar typically from Notre Dame delivers a public lecture on a saint. We've been hosting this series for 15 years now, and this year we focused on “Saints of the Sacred Heart.”I myself delivered the first lecture this year on St. Margaret Mary and the rebirth of the devotion to the Sacred Heart. The lecture that followed was delivered by friend and colleague, Tim O'Malley. His lecture was on St. Claude de Colombiere, which is especially fitting because St. Claude is the one who made St. Margaret Mary's visions of the Sacred Heart known to the world. But as Tim taught in his lecture, it matters very much that St. Claude was himself a Jesuit, as was our late Pope Francis who dedicated his last encyclical to the Sacred Heart. And so our conversation about this saint is also about the Spiritual Exercises, daily obedience to God's will, and the shock of Christ's personal and particular love for each of us.Follow-up Resources:“Providence and Obedience: Colombière, the Jesuits, and the Sacred Heart,” by Tim O'Malley via Church Life Journal“St. Margaret Mary Alacoque and the Devotion to the Sacred Heart,” podcast episode via Church Life TodayLearn more about the “Saturdays with the Saints” series: https://mcgrath.nd.edu/events/saturdays-with-the-saints/“Dilexit Nos – Part 1, a conversation with Joshua McManaway and Melissa Moschella” (about Pope Francis's encyclical on the Sacred Heart of Jesus), podcast episode via Church Life Today“Dilexit Nos – Part 2, a conversation with Brett Robinson and Abigail Favale” (about Pope Francis's encyclical on the Sacred Heart of Jesus), podcast episode via Church Life TodayChurch Life Today is a partnership between the McGrath Institute for Church Life at the University of Notre Dame and OSV Podcasts from Our Sunday Visitor.

This Sunday we join Kevin in his sermon "'It's Complicated." And That's Beautiful. That's Grace." Taking our cue from a few poems by the Jesuit priest Gerard Manley Hopkins (1844—89) which echo wisdom found in the Psalms, we'll consider what it means to have a sacramental world view—to find visible reminders of God's invisible grace everywhere around us. Even in the mixed-up, messed-up, impure things, what Hopkins called “pied things.” Even in the messiness of our everyday lives. Kevin Dettmar is a professor of English at Pomona College, where he teaches courses in British and Irish literature and contemporary popular music. He and his wife Robyn have been members of CUCC since 2022.

Other protagonists of this 4-part documentary on Christ the King that premiered November 18 in the Vatican's filmoteca or film library include Fr. Mark Lewis, SJ, Rector of the Jesuit-run Pontifical Gregorian University in Rome and Fr. Dominic Holtz, OP, Vice Dean of the Faculty of Philosophy at the Angelicum, the Dominican university in Rome.

Enjoy this episode? Please share it with at least ONE friend who you think needs to hear it!Sabbatean-Frankist historian Leo Zagami joins Faust Checho to expose the Frankist elite, Zionism's hidden history, and the Jeffrey Epstein network in episode 227 of Far Out with Faust.Leo Zagami is a historian of Sabbatean and Frankist movements whose research traces how 17th-century messianic sects evolved into influential esoteric and political networks. His work uncovers how the teachings of Sabbatai Zevi, the Dönmeh, Jacob Frank, and Lurianic Kabbalah shaped European aristocracies, early Zionist strategy, and the covert alliances behind modern geopolitical power. Through decades of archival work, Leo has become a leading voice documenting how these ideological currents survive inside elite structures today.In this conversation, Faust and Leo unravel the hidden lineage behind Epstein's rise — from the Mega Group and Les Wexner to the intelligence relationships that shielded his operation for decades. They break down how Sabbatean and Frankist ideology diverged from Judaism, how these sects embedded themselves in Ottoman and European politics, and how their influence resurfaced in early Zionist negotiations and 20th-century geopolitical maneuvering. Leo explains the Haavara transfer agreement, the role of the Asiatic Brethren, the philosophical roots found in the Zohar and Lurianic Kabbalah, and how these threads connect to today's push toward technocracy and consolidated global power.In this episode:

Whenever a man joins the Society of Jesus, his family and friends have to process that big life change and figure out how it's going to affect their relationship with the new Jesuit. In that way, Kristin Gilger is not unlike the thousands of mothers who have watched their sons join the order. Her son Patrick – who everyone else calls Paddy – joined the Jesuits in 2002. But one big way Kristin is different from other moms of Jesuits is that she has just published a book about her experience. It's called “My Son, the Priest: A Mother's Crisis of Faith,” and it has all the makings of an instant spiritual classic. Kristin Gilger is a longtime journalist and journalism professor, and she brought her reporting chops to a topic much closer to home than her usual subjects. Kristin is not afraid to ask big, tough questions, she's not afraid to be vulnerable, she's not afraid to share about her struggles with the Catholic Church and her son's vocation. “My Son, the Priest” is honest, human, deeply researched and often hilarious. Kristin and Fr. Paddy recently joined host Mike Jordan Laskey to record a podcast, and we found that mother and son had so much to say and so much fun talking to each other that we could take Mike right out of the episode. So you'll be hearing just from Kristin and Fr. Paddy here, a glimpse into the Gilger family and their story. It feels just perfect to be sharing this episode with you during Thanksgiving week, when families around the country gather with love, joy, and maybe just a bit of tension or stress. “My Son, the Priest: A Mother's Crisis of Faith”: https://www.monkfishpublishing.com/product/my-son-the-priest/ Kristin Gilger: https://search.asu.edu/profile/494566 Fr.

Baddesley Clinton looks calm today, but the families who lived there left behind a long trail of drama. This episode follows the Clintons, the fiery Bromes, and the Catholic Ferrers through murder, duels, hidden priest holes, and the Jesuit network that operated out of the house during Elizabeth I's reign. It's a full narrative journey through 500 years of secrets inside one Warwickshire manor. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Rob Lorenz was a National Park Ranger who spent time working at places Arches National Park in Utah and Carlsbad Caverns in New Mexico. One of his favorite things to do was to give tours and ranger talks to groups, explaining the extraordinary places of natural beauty in ways that were accessible to people of all ages and backgrounds. During a post in Washington, DC, where he worked near the National Mall at places like the Lincoln and Jefferson Memorials, he started feeling like God might be calling him to something else. Long story short, Rob joined the USA East Coast province of the Jesuits in 2019. Today, he's in the stage of formation called regency, which is typically two or three years of active ministry that falls in between periods of philosophy and theology study. Rob is spending his regency as the outreach coordinator for the Vatican Observatory. Founded in 1891 by Pope Leo XIII, the Vatican Observatory is led by Jesuit astronomers who are doing high-level scientific research in Castel Gandolfo, Italy, and Tucson, Arizona. Rob's job is to speak with groups about the wonders of the cosmos and the work the observatory – a job not too dissimilar from what he was doing as a National Park Ranger. He stopped by our Washington, DC, studio recently for a conversation with host Mike Jordan Laskey.

We start with a young, athletic Henry VIII whose dynastic panic collided with fragile Tudor legitimacy and recent civil war. From Wolsey's velvet control to Cromwell's hard-edged dissolution of the monasteries, the story isn't a popular uprising against Rome—it's a top-down refit of a living church under the pressure of succession, money, and law.Zooming out, Europe hums with end-times energy: printing stokes polemics, the sack of Rome shatters illusions, and theological debates double as statecraft. We revisit Mary I without the propaganda haze—her measured governance, her duty to crush rebellion, and the way her reign got rewritten by enemies. Then Elizabeth I tightens the bolts: supremacy oaths, recusancy fines, and an intelligence apparatus that turns conscience into evidence. The result is a church that keeps the silhouette of altars while changing the crown above them.Underground Catholicism adapts with nerve and nuance. Jesuit missions like Edmund Campion's draw hard lines, house chapels encode the Mass into Byrd's music, and priest holes become the country's hidden cathedrals. We unpack the Gunpowder Plot as either interception or invention and track how it cements “Catholic equals treason” in the English mind. From Laudian “beauty of holiness” to the civil war backlash, from Jacobite hopes to the Quebec Act and Wellington's push for emancipation, we follow the long arc that shaped modern Britain—and its American echo in how nations sacralize power.

On a freezing February morning in 1855, the terrified residents of Devon, England discovered miles of cloven hoof prints burned into fresh snow—tracks that climbed over rooftops, passed through locked gates, squeezed through four-inch pipes, and seemed to deliberately stop at people's front doors.IN THIS EPISODE: One morning in 1855, citizens of the English town of Devon were surprised to find strange footprints about town in the snow – not just on the street and sidewalks – but on their doorways, and on the house roofs, haystacks, walking up walls, and through pipes. The tracks covered over 100 miles and there was no explanation of how the prints were made – but many had a theory about who made the prints. They say it was the Devil. (The Devil Came To Devon) *** Picture this, you are called to the scene of a murder. The victim's shotgun was found in his room. It had been used some time recently, and there was an empty cartridge on the floor. There was, however, no blood or any other obvious signs of violence in the house. And something else odd, a pot in the kitchen was discovered to contain large amounts of strychnine. It sounds like one of those murder-mystery party games you solve with friends, but this is from a true murder mystery in Australia that still fascinates those who study the case. (The Wonnangatta Murders) *** What do a Jesuit missionary and a former slave have in common? The answer is… Bigfoot. (The Missionary, The Slave, and Bigfoot) *** The FBI described Israel Keyes as one of the most meticulous and vile serial killers in American history – so much so, he even had the FBI scratching their heads.

Two forces working together for the common goals of the elites... Zionists and Jesuits. Their goal is the same: snuff out the name and love a Jesus to bring about a one world religion rooted in Saturn worship. It is a process of bringing both ends to the middle in master level deception and manipulation that plays on emotions, creates false idols and breaks peoples will to resist. Our hope is in Jesus... not by name but in walking and living his WAY.  #BardsFM #TheGreatDeception #TheWayOfChrist Bards Nation Health Store: www.bardsnationhealth.com BardsFM CAP, Celebrating 50 Million Downloads: https://ambitiousfaith.net Morning Intro Music Provided by Brian Kahanek: www.briankahanek.com MYPillow promo code: BARDS Go to https://www.mypillow.com/bards and use the promo code BARDS or...
