From Jordan's Waters to Eternal Life: Living Christ's Command of Love The Homily weaves together the Gospel command of Christ . . . . . . to “love one another as I have loved you” with the biblical symbolism of the Jordan River, the sacrament of Baptism, the Eucharist, and the witness of St. Maximilian Kolbe. The crossing of the Jordan foreshadowed baptism, where Christ consecrated the waters to grant eternal life. Baptism is not merely symbolic but transforms us into sharers of Christ's death and resurrection, directing us toward our eternal homeland. The Eucharist deepens this call, reminding us that love means self-giving. St. Maximilian Kolbe embodies this truth, freely offering his life in place of another at Auschwitz, living out Christ's command of sacrificial love. The newly consecrated tabernacle at the shrine thus becomes a profound sign of Christ's abiding presence, love, and the command to imitate Him. Listen to this Meditation Media.

In this second episode of the Fatima Today martyrdom series, hosted by Barb Ernster with Katie Moran, we look at “red martyrdom” giving one's life for Christ. On his feast day, we share the inspiring story of St. Maximilian Kolbe: from his childhood vision of two crowns, one white for purity and one red for martyrdom — to his brave fight against evil through his love for the Blessed Mother. You'll hear about his arrest for helping refugees, his time in Auschwitz, and the moment he offered to die in another man's place. Even in the starvation bunker, his days were filled with prayer, song, and a deep peace that only God can give.   Stay tuned for the next episode — the touching story of Bl. Alexandrina da Costa, the “white martyr,” who offered her whole life to God through suffering.

In this first episode of the Fatima Today martyrdom series, hosted by Barb Ernster with Katie Moran, learn what it means to be a martyr a witness to Christ and the three kinds the Church teaches: green, white, and red.   Barb and Katie share the August 1917 story of the Fatima children, who were persecuted, jailed, and felt abandoned by their families, yet offered their suffering for sinners. Francisco encouraged them to accept this sacrifice and later felt deep joy and peace, the “martyr's grace.”   They also reflect on the third secret, when the Angel calls out “penance, penance, penance,” and the vision of martyrs' blood falling on those walking toward the cross, a path that includes each of us.   They encouraged people to turn their sufferings into sacrifice for sinners, and reminded that many are being called to be “green martyrs” by offering prayer and sacrifice for those who have no one to pray for them.   Don't miss what's next — the powerful story of St. Maximilian Kolbe, the “red martyr” who gave his life, and the moving journey of Bl.

In this Sunday Gathering sermon, Emily Perry draws inspiration from Frederick Douglass' powerful 1852 speech “What, to the Slave, is the Fourth of July?” to examine the gap between the high ideals of faith and the painful realities we see around us. Through stories of figures like Maximilian Kolbe, Martin Luther King Jr., and her own personal experiences, Emily explores how A Course in Miracles offers a new vision of faith—one that is not blind or hollow, but grounded in love, equality, and trust in each other's holiness. You'll learn: Why the Course teaches that God has perfect faith in you How we misplace our faith—and how to redirect it toward healing What it means to place faith in others and call forth their true nature How faith can become a living force for compassion, courage, and transformation If you've ever struggled with the concept of faith or wondered what it truly means on the spiritual path, this message is a call to embody the world we long to see. ___________________________ Since 1993, our purpose has been to help with both the theory and practical application of A Course in Miracles.

What happens when you pray the Divine Mercy Chaplet in St. Faustina's backyard?  This week, Father Dave shares powerful moments from his recent pilgrimage to Poland—visiting sacred sites tied to St. Maximilian Kolbe, St. Faustina, and St. John Paul II. From celebrating Mass at Kolbe's friary to walking through Auschwitz and Birkenau, it's a glimpse of God's mercy amid some of history's darkest places.  While Father Dave walked in the footsteps of saints, Deacon Bob found hopeful witness in the desert. He returns from the Life Teen Catholic Youth Ministry Convention in Arizona, where he gave a talk on “Radiant Hope” and reconnected with longtime friends in ministry. Together, the hosts reflect on the quiet, often unseen ways God raises up saints in every generation—even in the most unexpected places.  And yes, this episode still includes classic They That Hope moments: breakfast with Father Dave's brother Tom, a temporarily misplaced child on the New York subway, and a burning question: Why does the French Open have two names?    Highlighted Sections  (00:00) Breakfast with Tom, Arizona Adventures, and Youth Ministry in the Desert  Deacon Bob recounts his recent trip to Arizona for the Life Teen Catholic Youth Ministry Convention where he reconnected with ministry leaders and gave a keynote on “Radiant Hope.” He also shares a surprise breakfast meet-up with Father Dave's brother, Tom (a loyal listener), some humorous travel woes, and the joy of being surrounded by those serving the Church's youth.  (04:08) Sports Recap: NBA, NHL, Tennis, and... Golf?  From unexpected NBA playoff upsets to a grueling five-set French Open final, Father Dave and Deacon Bob weigh in on recent sports headlines. They touch on the drama of playoff hockey, marvel at JJ Spaun's 62-foot putt, and clear up (sort of) why the French Open is also called Roland-Garros.  (09:01) Audiobook Adventures  Deacon Bob announces that his book Sharing the Gospel with Our Lives is getting the audiobook treatment—and he's narrating it himself. He shares the process (including a mysterious home studio in Columbus), while Father Dave recalls the heartbreak of being cut off with just 15 minutes left in a Navy SEAL memoir due to subscription limits.  (16:29) Pilgrimage to Poland: Kolbe, Faustina & Divine Mercy in Dark Places  Father Dave reflects on the deeply moving pilgrimage he led across Poland. Highlights include Mass at St. Maximilian Kolbe's friary visiting the birthplace of St. Faustina, and praying the Divine Mercy Chaplet in St. Faustina's backyard with her niece. He shares how the lives of these saints—and the sobering visit to Auschwitz and Birkenau—revealed the light of God even in history's darkest moments.  (23:02) Saints Amidst Suffering  As conflict rages in places like Gaza and Ukraine, the hosts reflect on how God raises up saints in every era. From the Missionaries of Charity caring for the vulnerable in war zones, to everyday youth ministers and celibate religious, they honor those whose quiet, faithful witness brings hope to the world.  (28:22) Radiant Hope in Service  Expanding on his convention talk, Deacon Bob shares how true Christian hope is made visible through acts of loving service. Drawing from Scripture and the Visitation of Mary, he explains how hope, though unseen, shines clearly in those who serve joyfully and sacrificially.    Resources Mentioned  ·                     Sharing the Gospel with Our Lives: A Relational Approach to Catholic Youth Ministry by Deacon Bob Rice  ·                     LifeTeen Catholic Youth Ministry Convention  ·                     In Person with Bishop Cozzens on Faith&Reason  ·                     Hoopla streaming app  ·                     Franciscan Catechetical Institute  ·                     Divine Mercy Shrine in Kraków, Poland  ·                     Niepokalanów, St. Maximilian Kolbe's Friary  ·                     Auschwitz-Birkenau Memorial and Museum  ·                     How to Pray the Divine Mercy Chaplet

There's a new pope—and he's an Augustinian!   In this episode, Father Dave and Deacon Bob discuss the election of Pope Leo XIV, the first member of the Order of St. Augustine to lead the Catholic Church. They explore why St. Augustine's Confessions remains a spiritual masterpiece and how his vision of community, conversion, and interior prayer speaks to the Church's call for renewal today.  Naturally, they go off on many tangents, starting with a chilly trip to Cedar Point, detouring through spelling bee glory and NFL drama, and ending in Poland (via pilgrimage, not roller coaster). And yes, they say “Pope” a lot. Allegedly, it boosts downloads. (Spoiler: It works.)    Highlighted Sections  (00:00) T-Shirts, Field of Dreams, and the Pope Bump  The episode opens with an early Father's Day gift: a nostalgic T-shirt featuring Field of Dreams. This sparks a discussion about podcast stats and the surprisingly real “Pope bump,” where there seems to be an uptick in listeners anytime the pope is mentioned in the title. For science, they test it live.  (03:45) Teacups, Tournaments, and the Cold Ride of Aging  Deacon Bob recounts a brisk grandkid-filled day at Cedar Point, while Father Dave recaps the equally chilly Memorial Golf Tournament in Dublin, Ohio. Along the way, they correct a Jack Nicklaus/Jack Nicholson mix-up and debate whether roller coasters or golf better reveal our age.  (10:28) Spelling Bees, Stage Fright, and Childhood Wins  The Scripps National Spelling Bee champ nails “éclaircissement,” then collapses with joy. That memory sparks their own stories: Father Dave's catechism bee victory and Deacon Bob's state theater auditions. They reflect on the pressure of performing, the resilience it builds, and how these moments shape us.  (16:11) Pope Leo XIV, St. Augustine, and Why Confessions Still Matters  The first Augustinian pope opens the door to rich reflections on St. Augustine's enduring legacy. Father Dave and Deacon Bob spotlight Return to the Heart by Dr. Shane Owens, which unpacks the biblical themes in Confessions for today's reader. Owens also recently joined Father Dave for an episode of Franciscan University Presents to discuss how Augustine's life and writings continue to guide hearts back to Christ.  (21:05) Pentecost, Pilgrimages, and the Road Ahead  Pentecost kicks off a summer of spiritual encounters: Heather Khym leads the first Glory: A Women's Gathering, Deacon Bob heads to the LifeTeen Catholic Youth Ministry Convention, and Father Dave departs for a pilgrimage to Poland to visit sites connected to St. John Paul II, St. Faustina, and St. Maximilian Kolbe.

“I give you a new commandment: love one another.” With these simple yet profound words from this Sunday's Gospel passage, Jesus gave us the greatest commandment—a call to live lives of deep compassion, selflessness, and courage. Few have lived out this command as powerfully as St. Maximilian Kolbe, a Catholic priest whose love broke through the darkness of World War II in one of history's most terrible places. In the cruel confines of the worst Nazi concentration camp of Auschwitz, where hatred and despair seemed to rule, St. Maximilian Kolbe chose self-sacrificial Christian love. When a fellow prisoner, Franciszek Gajowniczek, was sentenced to die by starvation, Kolbe did the unthinkable. He stepped forward and offered his own life in exchange. He didn't do it for recognition or reward. He did it out of love—pure, Christ-like love for a stranger. This act was not just brave; it was holy. In that moment, Kolbe became a living reflection of Jesus, who laid down His life for us all. In a place meant to strip away human dignity, Kolbe's sacrifice declared that love still lives, even in the most hopeless of places. He showed that true love doesn't count the cost; it gives everything. As he led prayers and hymns in the starvation cell, bringing peace and light to those around him, Kolbe proved that love can triumph even in death. His final breath was not one of defeat, but of victory—the victory of love over fear, of faith over hatred. St. Maximilian Kolbe's legacy is a radiant beacon for all of us. His life challenges us to love more boldly, to give more freely, and to live not for ourselves, but for others. In a world that often values power and self-interest, Kolbe reminds us that the greatest strength is found in self-giving love. This heroic love is not rare or unreachable; it is the very heartbeat of the love Jesus Christ pours out for us each and every day. We don't need to journey to a far-off land or wait for a dramatic moment in history to experience it. This love, powerful and life-changing, is nearer than we think. It's as close as your local parish church, just a short drive away, waiting to welcome you with open arms. The Eucharist is a profound daily reminder of Jesus' self-sacrificial love. In every Mass, Christ offers Himself to us completely—His Body and Blood—just as He did on the cross. This gift is not just symbolic; it is real and personal, a continual act of love that nourishes our souls and calls us to do the same. Through the Eucharist, Jesus shows us how to live for others, to give without counting the cost, and to love with a heart that holds nothing back. It is both a gift and a challenge—to receive His love and then go out and share it with the world. --- Help Spread the Good News --- Father Brian's homilies are shared freely thanks to generous listeners like you.

In this conversation, Will Wright interviews Joshua Mazarin, author of 'Led by the Immaculata', exploring the profound themes of Marian consecration, the role of Mary in the life of the Church, and her unique relationship with the Holy Spirit. Joshua shares his inspiration for writing the book, the theological foundations of Marian devotion, and how it serves as a practical guide for living out one's faith. The discussion emphasizes the importance of entrusting oneself to Mary and understanding her as a mediator of grace, ultimately leading to a deeper relationship with Christ.St. Maximilian Kolbe is one of the most well-known and well-loved saints of all time. Many are familiar with the story of his selfless act at Auschwitz, where he sacrificed his own life to save a man who was a husband and father. But do you know about Kolbe's deep love for Mary, whom he called the Immaculata? How he surrendered everything to Our Lady to grow in holiness and align his will to the will of God? How he consecrated his life to Mary?In Led by the Immaculata, Joshua Mazrin, a Kolbe devotee and Mariology expert, will* introduce you to St. Maximilian Kolbe,* explain the meaning of consecration and the objectives of the Knights of the Immaculata,* walk you through the fourteen doable and practical steps of the consecration, and* provide a step-by-step plan for completing the consecration.Kolbe taught that by giving our lives completely to Mary, the Immaculata, she would direct our will to the will of the Holy Spirit—that is, the will of God. Kolbe wanted this message shared far and wide and so founded the Knights of the Immaculata with the goal of consecrating as many people as possible to Mary and her son.Each step of the consecration journey is explained in practical and theological terms, making it accessible to all, regardless of vocation or age. While Kolbe initially targeted men, the principles of holiness are equally relevant to women. The book concludes by empowering you—men and women alike—to be evangelists for the Immaculata and the Gospel and to be spiritual leaders in your family, workplace, and community.Led by the Immaculata invites you to embrace a deeper devotion to Mary and emulate Kolbe's path to holiness through the practical application of the fourteen steps in your daily life.Buy it today! - https://www.avemariapress.com/products/led-by-the-immaculataThanks for listening to Good Distinctions!

Friends of the Rosary, Every August, we honor the two martyrs of Auschwitz: St. Teresa Benedicta of the Cross and St. Maximilian Kolbe. We need to pray hard that we and our world don't return to the inhumanity of violence and war. The social acceptance of euthanasia and abortion puts us on the wrong track. Today, August 9, we celebrate the memorial of St. Teresa Benedicta of the Cross (1891-1942), Virgin and martyr, also known as St. Edith Stein. Born into a prominent Jewish family in Breslau (now Wroclaw, Poland), she became a brilliant philosopher, a PhD, a teacher and lecturer at major universities in Germany, and a prolific writer. Captivated by the autobiography and the writings of Teresa of Avila, she converted to Catholicism and entered the Discalced Carmelites in 1933 in Echt, Netherlands. She was arrested by the Nazis when they occupied this country, along with all Catholics of Jewish extraction. Teresa Benedicta and her sister Rosa, also a Catholic, were transported on a cattle train to the death camp of Auschwitz. She died in a gas chamber in Auschwitz on August 9, 1942.Pope John Paul II beatified her in 1987 and canonized in 1998. Ave Maria!Jesus, I Trust In You!St. Teresa Benedicta of the Cross, Pray for Us!
