Podcasts about Latin Mass

Our Lord Jesus Christ took on the punishments for our sins. He gave Himself over to great suffering so that we may be saved. Through the model He established, numerous saints throughout history embraced His path and became victims for the sins of mankind. These great acts of compassion, in unity with Our Lord, helps ensure our salvation.

Please help support this project: https://sspx.gifts/audiobook In Chapter 3, we follow Marcel Lefebvre as he arrives in Rome and enters the French Seminary at Santa Chiara. Here, the young seminarian is formed in the heart of the Eternal City, surrounded by the tombs of the apostles, the teaching of the popes, and the discipline of Roman doctrine. We see the deep influence of Fr. Le Floch, the spirit of St. Thomas Aquinas, and the ideal of Christ the King taking root in him. The chapter also shows trials within the seminary, the painful removal of Fr. Le Floch, and Marcel's growing firmness in truth, obedience, and priestly life. By the end, he is ordained a priest and begins to sense a call beyond France: the missions.

The devotion to the Sacred Heart of Jesus is a devotion to Our Lord's immeasurable love. Although the Sacred Heart devotion had been around since the Middle Ages, its prominence came at a crucial point in ecclesiastical history, namely during the spread of Jansenism in France during the 17th century. Contrary to the belief in God's mercy, Jansenism taught that we can never be pleasing to God. As fallen and fallible humans who are often consumed by our own desires, we find it difficult to return love to Our Lord despite His great love for us. However, His love, and the unfathomable patience that comes with that love, never abates.

At the moment of the Ascension, we Christians are called to make disciples of all nations. It is a great responsibility to call others to the feast, that is, to Our Lord's table. We must live faithfully to our calling, and doing so means bringing in others to live faithfully in the state of grace. We do this effectively by the example of our lives.

This project is an effort to shine a brighter light more widely on the life of Archbishop Marcel Lefebvre. Because his life is not only the story of one man. It is, in many ways, a window into the current crisis of the Church, the defense of the traditional Mass, and the history of the Church in the 20th century.

God loves the human race. But just as importantly, He loves all of us individually. In this beautiful feast of the Sacred Heart of Jesus, we focus on the immeasurable love of Our Lord. We pierce His heart through our sins. Yet never does God waver from His love for us. He does not withdraw from us. Our Lord continues to pour out our love so that we may never lose what He has planned for the human race, namely heaven.

Today in the final episode of The Episcopal Consecrations, we step back and look at the whole picture. Over the course of this series, we have examined the life of Archbishop Lefebvre, the crisis in the Church, the state of necessity, the nature of obedience, schism, and the role of bishops. But how do all these pieces fit together? Joined once again by Fr. Robert Brucciani, we revisit the central arguments, address the relationship between the needs of souls and the needs of the Church, and ask what the future may hold for Tradition after July 1. This episode serves as both a conclusion and a call to hope.

He was ordained a half-century ago. He remembers when reverence was expected, when the tabernacle was central, when Catholics knew what they believed and why. Then came the changes, and everything flipped.Father Richard Perricone joins John-Henry Westen to chronicle the transformation that has left the Church unrecognizable. Reverence became taboo. The sacred became optional. The priesthood became confused. And the laity, trained for generations to trust their shepherds, were suddenly told that the faith they had received could be rewritten, reimagined, or simply abandoned.Perricone does not blame Vatican II alone. He blames what came after: the systematic dismantling of Catholic identity by men who saw tradition as an obstacle and ambiguity as a virtue. The loss of the Latin Mass. The sidelining of the tabernacle. The confusion over confession. The collapse of religious orders. The silence of bishops who should have spoken.HELP SUPPORT WORK LIKE THIS: https://give.lifesitenews.com/?utm_source=SOCIAL U.S. residents!

God uses sufferings for our good. It is difficult for us to see this truth, for of course we desire no setbacks in our earthly life. We must remember, however, that the ways of God our not our ways. The ultimate end of our lives is our sanctification. The crosses we bear are integral to this sanctification. Throughout history, mankind has tried to reconcile belief in a loving God with the reality of evil. Instead of looking at this matter in a purely earthly view, we must embrace a supernatural perspective.

The greatest threat facing Christians is not war. It is not political upheaval. It is not even the collapse of Western civilization. The greatest threat, John-Henry Westen warns, is the Great Apostasy, the loss of faith spreading from within the Church herself.Drawing on the warnings of Pope St. John Paul II, Padre Pio, the seers of Fatima, and a host of saints and mystics, Westen argues that modern Catholics are living through a fulfillment of prophecy. Not the kind of prophecy that predicts earthquakes and wars—those have always been with us. The prophecy that should terrify every believer is the one that foretells shepherds becoming wolves, doctrine dissolving into ambiguity, and the faithful being told that sin is not sin and truth is not truth.Westen does not mince words: Pope Francis and Pope Leo have departed from historical Catholic teaching. The synodal path, the blessing of same-sex couples, the downgrading of abortion as a priority, the attack on the Latin Mass, all of it points to a Church that has turned against itself.HELP SUPPORT WORK LIKE THIS: https://give.lifesitenews.com/?utm_source=SOCIAL U.S. residents!

We are often fearful of the world's judgements. We desire respect and sadly fall prey to seeking it. This leads us seeking what others want for us rather than what God wants. Our desire for the respect of the world becomes a denial of Our Lord. This happens in small ways and large ways, but always to the detriment of our souls. This is why we must never be ashamed to represent that we are Catholic and in so doing, place Our Lord before the world in all things.

The work of the Incarnation, the union of human and divine, is the work par excellence of God. It is a great work of love that comes directly through the spirit of love, namely the Holy Ghost. And so it should come as no surprise that it is the Holy Ghost that continues on with the great work of Christ from the day of Pentecost to our own day. It is incumbent upon every Christian to be another Christ. And while we cannot do this by our natural powers alone, the Holy Ghost assists us in charting a way forward toward this beautiful end.

Today in The Episcopal Consecrations, we address the questions and objections that many Catholics are asking. Does the SSPX see itself as a parallel Church? Are these consecrations motivated by self-preservation or by the good of souls? Why continue dealing with Rome if there are serious disagreements? And how can Catholics reconcile obedience to the Pope with resistance to policies they believe are harmful to the Faith? Joined by Fr. Shane Pezzutti, we take a step back from the historical and canonical arguments to examine the practical concerns, misunderstandings, and difficult questions surrounding the upcoming consecrations and the Crisis in the Church today.

The sacrament of baptism is our initiation into the Catholic Church. It is not just the washing away of original sin; it is also a revelation of the mystery of the Holy Trinity. By our baptism, the life of grace is opened to us. Sadly, today there are many invalid baptisms due to a lack of proper form. It is imperative for every Catholic to know how this essential sacrament should be administered, both for their own salvation but also those who may need to receive it in a state of emergency.

Patrick answers questions ranging from the rites of the Catholic Church and differences between Eastern Catholic and Orthodox practices to the emotional tug-of-war families sense over traditional Latin Mass versus contemporary liturgies, wrestling with reverence, choir commitments, and parental concerns for their children’s formation. He shares thoughts on altar girls, highlights generational shifts in liturgical norms, and responds to listener reflections about the abolitionist movement within pro-life circles, threading through conflicting impulses of tradition and innovation while also confronting online hostility and resurfacing anti-Jewish rhetoric. These moments, layered with personal anecdotes and real-time problem-solving, propel the episode forward with frankness, vulnerability, and a call for discerning faith in a world pulsing with contradiction. Monica (email) - Could you elaborate on the Greek / Russian Orthodox. Are their priests ordained like ours? Can we attend their mass and receive the Eucharist? (00:43) Kristy (email) - Should we alternate Sundays between our local Novus Ordo parish (where our 9-year-old homeschooled son loves singing in the children’s choir twice a month) and the Traditional Latin Mass parish an hour away, or commit to one church to avoid confusing him? (06:27) Michael (email) - Should I allow my 6-year-old daughter—who already wants to be a nun—to serve at the altar in our reverent Novus Ordo parish (which has great reverence for the Eucharist), or would that risk pushing her away like my parents’ decision to forbid my sister, who later left for Protestantism? (19:51) Rich - What are your thoughts on being pro-life vs being an abortion abolitionist? (29:43) Andrew - I attended a wedding in a park and the presider said 'by the power invested in me by the universal life church, God, and her universe...' (41:24) Irene - I came across a Catholic group on X that hates Jews (48:27)

In our culture we are tempted to be infatuated with others, whether they be movie stars or athletes. Sadly, it makes us think our own lives are falling short. Yet we should recall as Catholics, we have an opportunity for a glorious and wonderful life in Christ. The world may tempt us to believe otherwise but the Faith gives us the path to what God has prepared for us.

Our Lady's participation in the act of redemption gave her a unique role in the salvation of the human race. Although there has been a recent attempt to obscure or reduce this fact, that does not take away from the longstanding understanding that she is the queen of heaven. She has been divinely appointed to disperse the graces that can lead us to eternal beatitude.

Today in The Episcopal Consecrations, we step inside the ceremony itself. What actually happens during the consecration of a bishop, and what does every gesture, prayer, and symbol mean? Fr. Ian Andrew Palko guides us through the ancient rite of episcopal consecration, from the examination and oath to the laying on of hands, anointings, vestments, and enthronement. Along the way, we explore the theology behind the episcopacy, the history of the papal mandate, and the Church's understanding of apostolic succession and jurisdiction.

Pride has plagued mankind from the advent of our creation. So often the devil invites us to seek after achievements that are an affront to Our Lord. In a time long past, our race thought they could attain to the heights of heaven by their own artifice. This sinful pride was met with the dispersion of tongues. Yet God, in His infinite mercy, bequeathed His Apostles with the known languages of man, so that those sheep once lost due their own sinfulness may find a way back to Him for everlasting life.

In this episode, we travel to Bismarck, North Dakota, where the faithful of St. Michael's are building a new Romanesque church on a hill overlooking the city. Fr. Dominic May walks us through the remarkable history of Tradition in North Dakota, from the legacy of Fr. Frederick Nelson and Powers Lake, to the first Society Masses offered in a living room, to the growth of a chapel serving faithful across the Dakotas and parts of Montana. After years of outgrowing their current church in Mandan, the parish purchased 20 acres on the edge of Bismarck and began raising a beautiful new house of God, with salvaged marble altars, restored pews, and countless hours of parishioner labor. With construction well underway, St. Michael's is preparing a new home for the Mass – and for generations of Catholic families to come.

Following Our Lord's Ascension, we celebrate the feast of Pentecost, when the third person of the Trinity, the Holy Ghost enters into the world to guide the Church and the faithful. Although the Holy Ghost did not become incarnate like God the Son, He appears throughout history in many forms. One of those forms is fire. For fire provides illumination, warms our otherwise cold hearts, and purifies us. The fire of the Holy Ghost is not provided to merely dispense pain. It is offered to consume our faults and transform us by God's immeasurable grace.

People go "parish hopping" for all kinds of reasons. Sometimes it's because of simple things like wanting more convenient mass times, or a shorter drive. Or it might be because they're looking for a community with more people in their age group, or more options for activities or outreach.  Sometimes, people leave their parish because of reasons pertaining to doctrine or liturgy. A new pastor might preach homilies that run counter to people's understanding of the faith, or initiate liturgical changes that leave them feeling spiritually desolate. For instance, following Pope Benedict XVI' 2007 motu proprio relaxing restrictions on the old Latin Mass, some parishes shifted to a more traditional liturgical form that sent some parishioners on a quest for the inclusive, Vatican II type Mass they preferred. Then in 2021, Pope Francis' instruction limiting the traditional rite sent other parishioners scrambling in other directions.  And sometimes, people leave their churches for more serious reasons relating to financial scandals, or spiritual or sexual abuse.  Does the church have an official stance on parish-hopping? If your parish is inconvenient, or you don't like the liturgies, or don't get along with your pastor, should you leave, or are there other options for dealing with issues in your parish?  On this episode of Glad You Asked, the hosts talk to Paul Jarzembowski about what a Catholic should do if they have issues with their parish or don't like their pastor. Jarzembowski is associate director for the Secretariat of Laity, Marriage, Family Life and Youth for the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops, and the United States' national coordinator for World Youth Day. He serves as an advisor to the Vatican on ministries with young people.  You can learn more about this topic in these links.

The feast of Our Lord's Ascension celebrates one of the greatest miracles in human history while also calling attention to the joy the Apostles felt when Jesus entered heaven. By entering heaven, Our Lord sets the path that we, too, must follow to be with Him for eternity. Christ is preparing a place for all of us in heaven, so long as we are willing to follow Him. Moreover, we know that after His Resurrection, Christ's body was glorified. And through this glorification, the only natural place for Him to be is not on this earth, but in heaven until his glorious Second Coming.

In this life, we keep our feet on earth, but keep our minds and hearts in heaven. By keeping our feet on earth, we mean that we must be realistic and confront the world as we find it. We must accept our reality, but we must not be overcome by it, particularly when confronted with everything from private desolations to the public crises in the Church and society writ large. However, the whole of reality is not just what we face on earth; it includes the supernatural realm and promise of heaven for those who part this life in God's good grace. We must see the trials of this life as fleeting and affix our hearts and minds ever on the promise of eternal life with Our Lord.

What is heaven? It is being with God for all eternity. And though God is everywhere, heaven is not everywhere, for we cannot see Him in this life nor detect Him with our senses. Because we cannot perceive Our Lord, we need the light of faith to know that He is there always.

Today in The Episcopal Consecrations, we turn to one of the most difficult and personal questions in the crisis: obedience. What does it really mean to obey the Church—and when can apparent disobedience be justified? Fr. Themann examines the nature of authority, the virtue of obedience, and the limits placed on every human command, even within the Church. Drawing on Scripture, theology, and practical examples, this episode explores how Catholics can navigate situations where commands seem to conflict with faith, morality, or the salvation of souls. Ultimately, we ask: how do we make these decisions with clarity, prudence, and peace of conscience?

We often pray for things and God does not answer them in the way we desire. Why is that? Prayer is not a magic formula; it is a petition to God. However, the efficacy of our prayers depends on the disposition of our souls. Prayer must be a priority in our lives rather than a mere afterthought. This is distressing, since not only our salvation, but the salvation of others depends on prayer. Everything that is important in the universe depends on prayer. With this in mind, we must reflect on the place of prayer in our lives and whether we place it before the frivolities of this world.

In this episode, we travel to Armada, Michigan, where St. Joseph's, one of the oldest and most historic SSPX communities in the United States, is preparing for a new chapter. Fr. Steven Soos and Tyler Gianattasio walk us through the remarkable history of this parish, from its beginnings with concerned Catholic families in the Detroit area, to the first Society foundations in Michigan, to the growth of a vibrant community centered on the Mass, the school, and devotion to St. Joseph. Now, after years of growth and tight limitations on its current property, the parish has purchased 22 acres of debt-free land and is planning a new campus with a larger church, a proper school, fields, parish spaces, and room for future generations. With an ambitious campaign already underway, St. Joseph's is looking to build not just for today, but for the next 50 to 100 years.

St. James informs us in his epistle that faith without works is dead. One of the many works we can perform to demonstrate our faith is to use our tongues, that is, our speech in a Christlike manner. This is immensely challenging given how easy it is to sin with the tongue and how difficult it is to repair the damage caused by that sin. If one uses their tongue to detract or deride another, how does one make those who hear such derision "un-hear" it? This and numerous other sins of the tongue are made worse in the digital age where false or hurtful statements are issued with ease, and there is often no sense how many people have heard or seen them. This is why we must be particularly vigilant in moderating our speech lest we undermine our faith.

Today in The Episcopal Consecrations, we take a striking turn in the discussion: what if the real crisis isn't just about disobedience—but about a loss of the very meaning of schism? Fr. Loop examines how modern Roman authorities treat groups that historically would have been considered outside the Church, from Orthodox to Anglicans, and what that reveals about the current understanding of unity and authority. If those who reject papal primacy are treated as already “one” with the Church, what does that imply about doctrine, jurisdiction, and the papacy itself? This episode asks a provocative question: who is truly defending the unity of the Church today?

Our Father in heaven begets the human race. While we know that God has made all things, the act of begetting is distinct. The distinction lies in the fact that when something or someone is begotten, they are of the same nature as the begetter. Humans beget other humans; seals beget other seals. And so when we hear words in Scripture about Our Lord begetting us, it means much more than Him creating us: it means that we are made children of God. Though we are not divine, through both baptism and accepting the truth of Who God Is, we are given to share in the divine nature.

We get bored with routines and discipline; we seek new experiences and relaxation from what we are called to do. Although it seems like we enjoy change, we resist it when it means abandoning our comforts. On the supernatural level, we recognize that we are born into the temporal world, but we are called to change our spiritual lives because we must commit ourselves to eternity. To reach this supernatural end, it means navigating an ever-changing world while cultivating God's grace.

Today in The Episcopal Consecrations, we confront one of the most serious objections: would consecrating bishops without papal mandate create a schism? Fr. Loop examines this claim head-on, responding to arguments from Church authorities and theologians who say such an act necessarily breaks unity with Rome. What is schism, properly understood? Does episcopal consecration itself confer jurisdiction—or can the power of orders be separated from governance? And how do we distinguish disobedience from a true rupture with the Church? This episode moves to the heart of the debate, arguing that, in a state of necessity, such consecrations need not be schismatic.

The feast of St. Joseph the Worker allows us to honor him for providing for both Our Lord Jesus and the Blessed Virgin Mary. The effort that we put into work is the result of the fall of the human race with Adam. Work, however, was no way painful nor a punishment at the advent of creation. Some live to work and others find work to be a necessary evil. As this sermon explains, the Catholic position lies in the middle.

In the modern world, individualism runs rampant. Whether such statements come from extreme rebels or philosophers, they contradict the natural order of society whereby we must carry out the orders of superiors. Obedience does not destroy freedom; it perfects it. Although we do not always choose our superiors, particularly our parents, without a commitment to obedience, human society itself unravels to the detriment of all.

The risen Christ appeared to a chosen few to reveal His resurrection. We are called to believe in this miracle and if we believe, we may see Him forever. The sight of the glorified Christ is the reward of all faithful Christians. For those He appeared to, Our Lord came as a consoler. Moreover, by tradition, Jesus appeared first to Our Lady, His Blessed Mother, because throughout His passion and suffering, she kept the Faith and offered compassion.

Today in The Episcopal Consecrations, we continue building the case for a state of necessity by examining the heart of Catholic life: the liturgy. Fr. Wiseman explores how the widespread changes to the Mass and the sacraments have affected the spiritual life of the faithful—and even the identity of the priesthood itself. What happens when the Church's worship no longer clearly expresses her doctrine? How does the way we pray shape what we believe? Drawing on the principle lex orandi, lex credendi, this episode shows how liturgical changes can create a grave and general threat to souls, and why this crisis cannot be ignored.

Our existence on earth is fleeting. By faith, we know this and believe in it. When we reflect upon eternity, our minds are not able to directly comprehend it. We measure our existence through time linearly, but eternity is the perpetual now. In the Mass, we bring together the fulness of time and the eternity of Our Lord's sacrifice in one moment, at all hours, and daily on countless altars across the world. Our minds may not be able to comprehend eternity, but through the Catholic Faith we experience it.

The cultivation of vocations cannot merely be part of a communication strategy. They must emerge from an authentic Christian culture. This is why the Society of Saint Pius X has endeavored since its founding to both promote priestly vocations and shape priests in line with Tradition. At the same time, the Society has and continues to inspire Catholic families to foster vocations. For as Our Lord instructed, "Many are called, but few are chosen." Many more are called but do not have the formation to accept.

Today in The Episcopal Consecrations, we take the next step in the argument: is there truly a crisis in the Church—and how can we know it with certainty? Fr. Sherry examines the doctrinal errors that have spread in recent decades, from modernism and religious liberty to ecumenism and the weakening of Catholic teaching on salvation. How do we judge such a situation without falling into extremes? And what level of certainty is required before action can be taken? This episode moves from principles to reality, asking a direct question: if souls are in danger, what must be done to save them?
