In this episode of The Cordial Catholic, I'm joined by author, speaker, and Catholic convert Shemaiah Gonzalez to share the remarkable story of her journey into the Catholic Church. From the profound beginnings of her life, through some wild ups and downs and everything in between, Shemaiah's story is a fantastic tale of following Jesus where he leads – through heartbreak and joy – with utter abandonment. And, when Shemaiah begins to grow close to a long-time friend of hers and realizes that he's Catholic, her story takes a thrilling turn! Shemaiah is a fantastic storyteller and I hope you enjoy her story! For more from Shemaiah visit her website or follow her on X.Her book, Undaunted Joy: The Revolutionary Act of Cultivating Joy is available everywhere books are found.Send your feedback to cordialcatholic@gmail.com.

In this episode of The Cordial Catholic, I'm joined after a four year long hiatus, by the one and only Father Gregory Pine, OP to talk about the Eucharist. We dig deeply on the sacrificial nature of the Mass, the Catholic understanding of the Eucharist, and how, truly, an understanding of the 2,000-year old tradition of Christ's Real Presence in the Eucharist, available at every Catholic Church in the world, is an absolute game changer. Plus, we talk about Eucharistic adoration, how the "altar call" in Charismatic Christianity finds its fulfilment in a real altar, and we learn that Father Gregory is a "medium-sized" hugger. Good to know. For more from Father Gregory you can check out his book Your Eucharistic Identity: A Sacramental Guide to the Fulness of Life from Ignatius Press.Send your feedback to cordialcatholic@gmail.com.

In this episode of The Cordial Catholic, I'm joined by Father Sammie Maletta, author and long-time pastor of St. John the Evangelist Parish in St. John, Indiana to talk about making Catholics into intentional disciples of Christ. With decades of experience in pastoral ministry, Fr. Maletta brings a wealth of experience and knowledge on why some parishes and parishioners are filled with the Spirit while others are asleep at the wheel, what it takes to move a casual Catholic into discipleship, and what makes Catholicism so appealing to potential converts and non-Catholic Christians. We dig in deeply into the world is discipleship through a Catholic lens with an eye to our non-Catholic brothers and sisters who are wondering, as many do: Can Catholics really be disciples of Christ?!For more from Fr.

In this episode of The Cordial Catholic, I'm joined by my friend Dr. Andrew Swafford to talk about C.S. Lewis' masterpiece The Great Divorce and how this Protestant book creates so many questions and so many conversions to Catholicism with its incredible picture of purgatory.We talk about the Catholic understanding of purgatory, participation with Christ, suffering, and how C.S. Lewis presents a vision of the afterlife that simply doesn't line up with Protestant theology – and leaves many Protestants asking questions that just can't be answered outside of the ancient faith traditions like Catholicism. For more from Dr. Swafford check out his book Next Stop: The Afterlife or his other fine books on C.S.

In this episode of The Cordial Catholic, I'm joined by author Traci Rhoades to talk about her remarkable faith journey into the Catholic Church. Traci is a brilliant and insightful writer who I first met as someone exploring the different roots of Christian traditions. When I heard that Traci had, in fact, become Catholic I knew I needed to have her on the show! Traci's story is a fantastic one – and she's a great storyteller. From trying to incorporate the ancient elements of Christianity into her non-denominational church to realizing, ultimately, that those elements can only be rightly found in the most ancient churches, it's a wonderful story of following Christ to the absolute ends of where he leads, and a lovely tale of family and faith, too. For more from Traci visit her website.Send your feedback to cordialcatholic@gmail.com.Sign up for our newsletter for my reflections on episodes, behind-the-scenes content, and exclusive contests.To watch this and other episodes please visit (and subscribe to!) our YouTube channel.Please consider financially supporting this show!For more information visit the Patreon page.  All patrons receive access to exclusive content and if you can give $5/mo or more you'll also be entered into monthly draws for fantastic books hand-picked by me.If you'd like to give a one-time donation to The Cordial Catholic, you can visit the PayPal page.Thank you to those already supporting the show!Theme Music: "Splendor (Intro)" by Former Ruins.

In this episode of The Cordial Catholic, I'm joined by Catholic evangelist, missionary, and Bible teacher Meg Hunter-Kilmer to talk about two of the most widely spread misconceptions about Catholics: that Catholics don't read their Bibles and that Catholics don't have a personal relationship with Jesus. We dig into the places where Catholics hear Scripture, why the Catholic-Protestant misunderstanding about Scripture exists and what it means, and how to empower Catholics to read more Scripture. Plus, we dig into that ways that Catholics know Jesus intimately including confession, the Eucharist, and through the Mass.Meg is an absolute fireball and she brings it this week on the show!For more from Meg check out her website and her books, especially her new Bible study, Who is Jesus? from Ave Maria Press.Send your feedback to cordialcatholic@gmail.com.Sign up for our newsletter for my reflections on episodes, behind-the-scenes content, and exclusive contests.To watch this and other episodes please visit (and subscribe to!) our YouTube channel.Please consider financially supporting this show!For more information visit the Patreon page.  All patrons receive access to exclusive content and if you can give $5/mo or more you'll also be entered into monthly draws for fantastic books hand-picked by me.If you'd like to give a one-time donation to The Cordial Catholic, you can visit the PayPal page.Thank you to those already supporting the show!Theme Music: "Splendor (Intro)" by Former Ruins.

How much should a mechanic tell a client during an annual? Mike, Paul, and Colleen handle this question and more. Email podcasts@aopa.org for a chance to get on the show. Join the world's largest aviation community at aopa.org/join Full notes below: Justin flies a Twin Bonanza and cylinder 5 on his left engine takes as much as a minute to fire up and start running. It comes online fastest if he goes very lean quickly after starting. He's pulled the valve cover and springs off, and it's not a sticky valve, and he's reamed the valve guides. Mike wonders if it could be a primer problem. Justin disconnected the primer line, ran the boost pump, and checked for leakage and couldn't find any. Paul suggests taking the line off, capping off the injector, and then trying it.  Jorg is trying to make sense of his data. He has a K35 in Austria and he has GAMI injectors and an engine monitor on his IO-470. He has a low CHT on the number 6 cylinder, and it's the first one to go on the lean side, and it shuts down first if they go very lean. An induction leak test seemed fine, and his GAMI spread is less than a gallon an hour. The valve was also lapped. Mike said a low probability culprit could be if the bleed air holes in the injector nozzle were plugged, since they don't seem to have an impact at wide open throttle, but would at a reduced throttle.  Mark saw a Youtube video and is now wondering if there's danger lurking in the alternator. The video mentioned how an alternator elastomer coupler failure could lead to a catastrophic engine failure. Paul said the installation is critical because of some critical components. Mike thinks the video relies on old information. He said Continental used to employ a spring, which would come apart and throw large chunks of metal into the engine. The coupler is meant in part to protect the engine if the alternator seized, but sometimes the coupler would fail and cause its own failure. The newer versions have an elastic or rubber piece instead of a steel spring, which shouldn't cause an engine failure.  Chaz is an A&P/IA and he wants the team to weigh in on the debate as to whether the inspector should give pilots a full list of squawks or only the airworthiness issues. He personally thinks he should give the whole list so the owner knows where he stands. The hosts agree that the full list is preferable. The mechanic is giving a full slate of options, and not a required list. Airworthiness items can be listed separately or be flagged. 

In this episode of The Cordial Catholic, I'm joined by Paul McCusker, the Peabody Award-winning creator of Adventures in Odyssey and the Focus on the Family Radio Theatre to discuss his incredible conversion to Catholicism. McCusker's worked defined generations of Evangelical Christians and as someone steeped in the Protestant, sometimes anti-Catholic world, we find out, in this episode, what made him consider Catholicism: what drew him in, what drew him deeper, and the questions and realizations that eventually led him to join the Catholic Church. Paul's story is amazing. And, as you might expect, he's a fantastic storyteller.For more from Paul visit his website.

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

In this episode of The Cordial Catholic, I'm joined by two of the best experts on the Canon of the Bible, my friends Matthew Mark McWhorter and Gary Michuta. Together, we'll dig into exactly why Protestant Bibles are smaller than Catholic Bibles – what happened to the missing books and the unfounded theories that led to them being removed. We look at modern evidence which proves that the Catholic canon of Scripture was what Jesus and the apostles were reading, that it contains more intact and reliable versions of Scripture, and that Jerome's famous thesis – which led Martin Luther to REMOVE books from the Bible – is historically false, and has been proven so!

In this episode of Taking the Temperature of HVACR, host Jamie Kitchen joins Jorg and John to discuss how supermarkets can reclaim “waste heat” from their refrigeration systems to tackle humidity issues (foggy glass doors, dripping condensate, slippery floors) while improving comfort and efficiency. They explain how compressor heat can be reused for reheat during dehumidification, domestic hot water, and even full space heating—sometimes eliminating the need for gas boilers—then share a real-world example of a European supermarket that heats itself year-round and can export surplus heat to a district heating network.

In this episode of The Cordial Catholic, I'm joined by one of the most dynamic Catholic theologians alive today and Jewish convert to Catholicism Dr. Lawrence Feingold. Dr. Feingold joins us to answer the question, "What are Protestants missing by missing out on the Eucharist?" and his answer is nothing short of astounding. Using the Old and New Testaments, church history, the Early Church Fathers, and the Jewish context of Jesus's ministry to unpack and help us to understand exactly what kind of Church Christ established, why the Mass is true worship, and what's going on with the Eucharist – including the Real Presence, John 6 unlocked, and more. It's a fantastic conversation.For more from Dr. Feingold check out his book The Eucharist: Mystery of Presence, Sacrifice and Communion.Visit St. Paul Center's Emmaus Academy where you can see Dr. Feingold's newest course (amongst others) on the Eucharist.You can find more of his work including hours and hours of lectures at the Association of Hebrew Catholics.Send your feedback to cordialcatholic@gmail.com.

In this episode of The Cordial Catholic, I'm joined by David L. Gray to talk about the Mass, the Liturgy, from his perspective as a Catholic convert – and how we can explain it to other converts, draw them in, and demonstrate the incredible truth and beauty of how and why Catholics worship through the Mass.This is a great conversation! With David as our guide, we dig deeply into what's happening in the liturgy of the Mass, the liturgies that are present in all non-Catholic Christian settings, how to evangelize through the Mass, and the incredible experience of Christ we receive each and every time we worship at Mass.To read or see more from David visit Saint Dominic's Media.Be sure to check out his wonderful new book The Liturgical Sense of the Readings At Mass (Year A) and, for listeners to our show, use the code CORDIALCATHOLIC to get 20% off the price!Send your feedback to cordialcatholic@gmail.com.

This week on the show I'm joined by my friend Nate Cline to talk about his amazing journey from Evangelical Christianity into the Catholic Church. Nate's story is one of a passionate Evangelical Christian, honestly and wholeheartedly seeking after Christ through a variety of churches, church plants, church splits, and serious soul searching to find Christ, ultimately, in the last place he ever thought he could: the Catholic Church. After all, the Catholic converts we know, Nate points out, became that way only after passionately and in full abandonment, seeking out Christ and where He could be found.For more from Nate please subscribe to his YouTube channel:https://www.youtube.com/@thenateclineshowSend your feedback to cordialcatholic@gmail.com.

In this episode of The Cordial Catholic, I'm joined by my friend and Early Church scholar Dr. Thomas Scheck to talk about his latest work, a translation of St. John Fisher's refutation of Martin Luther. The importance of this discussion can't be understated as we unpack one of those Catholic writers, theologians, and bishops who wrote against Martin Luther, and the Reformers, at the very time of the Reformation. Counter to what so many of us thought as Protestants, the Catholic response to Reformation era ideas was immediately, intense, and thorough. Our discussion this week digs into that response and how figures like Fisher called Luther to task – on some of his misquotations and misuses, too! – at the very inception of the Reformation.For more from Dr. Scheck check out his author page on Amazon.Send your feedback to cordialcatholic@gmail.com.

In this episode of The Cordial Catholic, I'm joined by Bible scholar Dr. Stephen Boyce to tell the story of his conversion from Baptist to Anglican and, ultimately, into the Catholic Church. Stephen's story begins in independent Baptist churches, up through his PhD in a Baptist seminary, and through teaching and pastoring, researching the Early Church, and ultimately coming to the conclusion that his own denomination didn't look like Early Christianity. Driven by these realizations, Dr. Boyce, his wife, and kids became Anglican and, eventually, driven by the Real Presence in the Eucharist, Catholic.Dr. Boyce is someone that I've personally followed for some years. I love patristics and have appreciated his work and I couldn't be more excited to sit down with him and listen to his conversion story this week. I hope you enjoy! For more from Dr. Boyce check out his FACTS podcast on YouTube and Spotify.Send your feedback to cordialcatholic@gmail.com.

In this episode of The Cordial Catholic, I'm joined by Claire Noel, a convert to Catholicism, with an absolutely compelling story to tell. While almost impossible to summarize Claire's story is one that needs to be heard to be appreciated. From Christianity to a major deconstruction and years in the New Age movement. Claire's story is punctuated by twist after turn including encounters with dark forces as her and her husband tried to make their way out of the New Age movement. And, ultimately, discovering that the Calvinist, Reformed faith they had rediscovered wasn't the same faith held by the apostles and the Early Church – and discovering a much more ancient, apostolic tradition in Catholicism. This conversion journey is absolutely packed with everything from encountering the rich, deep holistic teaching of the Catholic Church's Theology of the Body to observations and realizations about Christian unity and denominations, to encounters with the unmistakable, miraculous intervention of God. You won't want to miss this conversation – especially because it almost didn't happen!To find a follow Claire please visit her Instagram page.Send your feedback to cordialcatholic@gmail.com.

In this episode of The Cordial Catholic, I'm joined by my new friend Deacon Patrick Lappert, MD a double-board certified Naval surgeon with what must be one of the wildest Catholic conversion stories you'll ever here. Seriously, buckle up for this one. Deacon Patrick's story is one of God relentlessly pursuing someone in love. Raised Jewish, Deacon Patrick spent most of his life as an atheist and through a series of increasingly unmistakable, unavoidable miracles, began to look into Christianity and the Catholic faith. The parallels Deacon Patrick saw between his Jewish upbringing and Catholicism – the connections – as well as the incredible miracles God was doing in his life, led Deacon Patrick to the unmistakable conclusion that God wanted him to become Catholic.The rest is history. But, wow, what a story!For more from Deacon Patrick check out his work through Courage International.Send your feedback to cordialcatholic@gmail.com.

In this episode of The Cordial Catholic, I'm joined by Father Tony Stephens, a Rector of Our Lady of Champion Shrine, the site of the first and only approved Marian apparition in the United States, to talk about Mary's miraculous appearances, the miracles associated with her intercession, and how to charitably help our Protestant brothers and sisters understand the role of our Blessed Mother. With Father Tony's expert guidance and cordial approach, we walk through not only Mary's appearance at Champion but Our Lady of Guadelupe, Lourdes, Fatima, and some of the other important appearances of Mary in order to explain and understand exactly what her role may be today, and historically, in salvation history. It's a great conversation.For more from Father Tony check out the National Shrine of Our Lady of Champion website.Send your feedback to cordialcatholic@gmail.com.

In this episode of The Cordial Catholic, I'm joined by Aaron Gunsaulus, the anti-Catholic, Calvinist pastor who became Catholic – although with 17 of his friends from the church he pastored! This is an amazing story. Aaron is a good friend of another good friend of the show, former Protestant Pastor Keith Nester, and the way their stories are connected is incredible. Aaron tells that story and explains how being "fair" to the Catholic Church began to soften his outlook and, ultimately, lead to not only his conversion but the conversion of his wife, one of their children (another is in RCIA), and 17 of their friends from their former church. It's an outrageous story!To follow Aaron check out his Substack and follow him on X.Send your feedback to cordialcatholic@gmail.com.

n this episode of The Cordial Catholic, I'm joined by Matthew Mark McWhorter, a high-powered, high-profile corporate lawyer who turned his skills in the courtroom towards the Bible and Christianity. After a life-changing experience made him consider Christianity, McWhorter set out to research the evidence for belief in Jesus. He encountered the Bible and quickly realized that not all Christians believed in the same canon of Scripture – so which one is right. In this episode, we dive deeply into this exact topic and unpack why McWhorter thinks that a Protestant reliance on the *wrong* books of the Bible actually undermines their complete case for Christianity – and why Protestants should seriously rethink their "smaller" Bibles.For more from Matthew McWhorter including his wonderful book Canon Crossfire please visit his website.Send your feedback to cordialcatholic@gmail.com.

In this episode of The Cordial Catholic, I'm joined by one of the all-time great Early Church historians, Dr. James Papandrea to talk about what the Early Church really looked like. We tackle subjects like baptism, the Eucharist, the sources of authority, and the structure of the Church – from the beginning and through to today – and tackle the question of, if our current Evangelical churches don't look like the Early Church did then when, and why, did that change? It's all tough questions this week for a fantastic Church historian who is cordial, compassionate, and doesn't pull any punches.

Near-Death experiences, demon-possessed cars, miraculous lottery wins, and miracles that seem absolutely unbelievable – this week on the show I'm by Dr. John Sottosanti, an atheist surgeon, to tell his outrageous conversion to Catholicism and a deeper faith in Christ. Raised nominally Catholic, John drifted away from the faith an into a successful dental practice but was hounded – haunted, even – by the Catholicism of his childhood. Confronted, again and again, by the most incredible miracles this is the story of the "Hound of Heaven," and His pursuit of even the one lost sheep – until he came back into the fold. This is such an amazing story. John is an incredible storyteller!For more from John visit his website. Send your feedback to cordialcatholic@gmail.com.

In this episode of The Cordial Catholic, I'm joined by the elder statesman of American Catholicism the one and only George Weigel. Author of countless award-winning books, a regular columnist and commentator, and an all-around completely reasonable and decent Catholic guy, George joins us the week with a kind of State of the Union, a medical exam, if you will, of the Catholic Church with an eye to helping those new to the faith and those looking at Catholicism from the outside understand what's happening in the Church today. We tackle ideas of the nature of the Church and disagreements in Catholicism, the outlook for the American Church with an American Pope at the helm, the idea of evangelization and what's missing from Catholic discipleship, and, in general, what new Catholics can expect when they convert – and they are converting in droves these days!George is a bit of a sage when it comes to understanding the Church and even though he calls me "Kevin" throughout he has a lot of good points to make and this ended up being an absolutely wonderful conversation.For more from George check out his website.Send your feedback to cordialcatholic@gmail.com.

In this episode of The Cordial Catholic, I'm joined by Barbara Heil a former Charismatic, Evangelical Ministry, Missionary, and Evangelist who heard the call of God – encountered Christ in a profound way – and became Catholic! This is an incredible story, buckle up!Barbara spent 30 years in what she called cutting-edge Evangelical ministry, always seeking to live on the margins of where God was calling her, her husband, and their thriving ministry, until she began to encounter Christ in the most unexpected places: through Catholic priest, the Mass, and in Catholic encounters!Barbara's story is one of those incredible journeys of someone who is seriously "sold out" for the Lord, encountering him in the least likely of places: the Catholic Church. For more from Barbara check out From His Heart Ministries and her book Journey Into His Heart: How the Holy Spirit Led Me Into the Catholic Church.

In this episode of The Cordial Catholic, I'm joined by my friend Dr. Michael Barber, Professor of Sacred Scripture and Theology at the Augustine Institute, to unpack the Sacrament of the Anointing of the Sick from the Old Testament, the New Testament, and throughout Church History. This week is an awesome Bible study with a lens towards how we can understand this important sacrament – and all the sacraments – with an eye towards evangelization. How do we share the deep biblical and historical roots of the Sacrament of the Sick? What's is the point and purpose of this anointing? And why is this important, biblical practice, also deeply and uniquely Catholic? For more from Dr. Barber check out his website.

In this episode of The Cordial Catholic, I'm joined by my friend Adom Postma and his brother Jason, a former Anglican priest, to talk about the incredible conversion – a journey made by three brothers into Catholicism. Raised in the Reformed tradition, these brothers loved their faith deeply and regularly spared with one another, as iron sharpens iron, on all kinds of topics in Evangelical Christianity. But when one brother began to look into the Early Church Fathers in order to win a debate with a Jehovah's Witness, things begin to take an interesting turn. Listen and learn how slowly their conversation turned towards Catholicism. How Jason, a devout Anglican priest with a church and a ministry and a family to take care of, wrestled with the same questions he watched his brothers wrestle with – and come to startlingly similar conclusions. And how, ultimately, the only thing that made sense to do for all of the brothers was to become Catholic!This is a fantastic story that you won't want to miss. For more from Jason check out his Substack.Send your feedback to cordialcatholic@gmail.com.

In this episode of The Cordial Catholic, I'm joined by the one and only Steve Kerekes to talk about the Brown Scapular. Steve, who's literally dedicated his life to the promotion of this Catholic devotion, joins us to unpack the origins of the scapular, dispel some of the common misunderstandings, and to share why he thinks that the Brown Scapular is the perfect companion to the rosary – the sword and the shield of our Catholic faith! Steve is such a dynamic guy and you're going to absolutely love the passion and enthusiasm he brings to this "crazy uncle" Catholic topic. For more from Steve visit his website.Send your feedback to cordialcatholic@gmail.com.

In this episode of The Cordial Catholic, I'm joined by the Dr. Shane Owens from the Franciscan University of Steubenville to talk about St. Augustine. Often claimed by non-Catholic Christians to support a low view of the papacy, the symbolic nature of Communion, and the doctrine of Sola Scriptura I ask Dr. Owens exactly what *did* St. Augustine believe about these ideas and how we can successfully win debates and discussions when a Protestant tries to claim that Augustine supports these views.With clarity and charity Dr. Owens demonstrates why arguments by popular Protestant scholars like Dr. James White and Dr. Gavin Ortlund – that Augustine supports popular Protestant doctrines – are completely wrong. For more from Dr. Owens please check out his book Return to the Heart: The Biblical Spirituality of St. Augustine's Confessions:https://stpaulcenter.com/store/return-to-the-heart-the-biblical-spirituality-of-st-augustines-confessionsAnd follow the St. Paul Center at:https://stpaulcenter.comSend your feedback to cordialcatholic@gmail.com.

THE SWIMMER (1968) We dive deep in to The Swimmer and discuss and analyze, maybe just a little bit the glorious film directed by Frank Perry, based on a screenplay by Eleanor Perry, from the 12 page short story by John Cheever. "Well-off ad man Ned Merrill (Burt Lancaster) is visiting a friend when he notices the abundance of backyard pools that populate their upscale suburb. Ned suddenly decides that he'd like to travel the eight miles back to his own home by simply swimming across every pool in town."If you're reading this I would like to thank you from the bottom of my heart for your support.

We talk about one of the most difficult things to do as a Catholic convert: convert without destroying your marriage.

In this episode of The Cordial Catholic, I'm joined by Taylor from GemmaintheRough (on Instagram and TikTok) to talk about her journey as a charismatic, non-denominational Christian leading worship at her church to a full-blown conversion to Catholicism. Taylor's story is amazing as she asks incredible questions about how and why her non-denominational church worshipped the way they did – and how the Early Church worshipped differently!How could they have weekly "altar calls" without an altar? How could they claim to "worship" God without offering any kind of sacrifice in the biblical pattern? This and so much more makes up Taylor's awesome conversion story. She is cordial, enthusiastic, and so articulate. You don't want to miss this episode.For more from Taylor find her on Instagram and TikTok.Send your feedback to cordialcatholic@gmail.com.

In this episode of The Cordial Catholic, I'm joined by my friend Carla Lynch to unpack her outrageous journey from Charismatic, Evangelical Christianity into full communion with the Catholic Church. Carla's journey is one of a kind, beginning when her Evangelical Youth Group visited a well-known Catholic Church – the beauty, the stillness, and the devout worship of the Catholics she saw there coming up-ended her understanding of Catholicism and planted a seed that would slowly germinate and grow until she couldn't avoid it's presence any longer. From there, her story only gets even more wild. Carla's journey is amazing and I truly hope you enjoy it.Send your feedback to cordialcatholic@gmail.com.
