While these two worlds may seem worlds apart—one rooted in centuries-old religious tradition, the other often viewed through the lens of mystery and fringe science—they actually share more in common than most people think. From exorcisms and demonic possession to miracles, apparitions, and the acknowledgment of spiritual realms, the Catholic Church has long engaged with phenomena that many would classify as paranormal. In fact, the Church was one of the first institutions to develop a formal framework for investigating unexplained phenomena—long before the term "paranormal investigator" even existed. We explore how Catholic doctrine addresses spiritual warfare, the afterlife, and the existence of angels and demons. We also look at the Church's process for validating supernatural claims, such as Marian apparitions or incorruptible saints, and how these processes parallel modern paranormal investigation methods. Could ancient rites and rituals be early forms of spiritual protection? Is the concept of purgatory similar to reports of earthbound spirits or ghosts? And why do many paranormal investigators still turn to prayers, holy water, and religious symbols during intense investigations? We'll also examine how Catholic mystics and saints—such as Padre Pio, St. Teresa of Ávila, and St. John of the Cross—reported visions, levitations, bilocations, and other experiences that today might be categorized as supernatural or paranormal events. Whether you're a skeptic, believer, or somewhere in between, this episode invites you to reconsider the spiritual underpinnings of paranormal phenomena and how centuries of religious belief intersect with modern supernatural encounters.

Send us a text by clicking this link!Passion Sunday marks an essential turning point in our Lenten journey as we enter Passiontide, the final and most solemn two-week period before Easter. Today, we explored the profound reality of Christ's sacrifice and what it means for our spiritual lives during these sacred days.At the heart of our meditation lies a stunning theological truth from St. John Vianney: "Our Lord suffered more than was necessary to redeem us, but what would have satisfied the justice of His Father would not have satisfied His love." The blood shed at Christ's circumcision alone would have been sufficient for mankind's redemption—each drop of divine blood carrying infinite redemptive power. Yet Christ chose the full suffering of the Cross not from necessity but from superabundant love. This revelation transforms how we understand the Passion and our own participation in it through Lenten practices.Drawing from Scripture, particularly Hebrews 9:12, we see how Christ fulfilled and transcended the Old Testament sacrifices. The high priest's annual blood offering foreshadowed Jesus becoming both priest and victim, offering His own blood for our salvation. Padre Pio's words further illuminate our path: "Let us climb generously the slopes of Calvary for love of Him, who was immolated for love of us." With these insights, I offered four practical resolutions to deepen your Passion Tide experience: dedicate time to meditate on God's sacrificial love, unite your daily struggles with Christ's sufferings, honor Crucifixes you encounter, and gaze lovingly at the Crucifix in your home or office. As we approach Holy Week, these practices help us "double down" on our Lenten commitments and finish our spiritual journey with renewed focus and devotion.Have you placed crucifixes throughout your home and workplace as visible reminders of Christ's sacrifice? Consider how these sacred images might transform your final days of Lenten preparation and draw you deeper into the mystery of God's boundless love.Support the showSponsored by Recusant Cellars, an unapologetically Catholic and pro-life winery from Washington state.

Love to hear from you; “Send us a Text Message”What happens when a skeptical World War II sergeant decides to "blow a priest out of the confessional" by confessing his extensive list of sins? The result is utterly unexpected and life-changing.Through the compelling true story of Sergeant Columban's encounter with Padre Pio, we witness how a moment of defiance transformed into a profound spiritual awakening. When this stigmatic friar revealed the sergeant's long-forgotten childhood dream of becoming a priest—something he had never shared with anyone—the hardened soldier found himself weeping outside the confessional, his life forever altered.Padre Pio was no ordinary priest. Bearing the wounds of Christ that bled for 50 years, possessing gifts of healing, bilocation, and the ability to read hearts, his extraordinary encounters with American GIs during World War II became legendary. For Sergeant Columban, serving as Padre Pio's altar boy in the weeks that followed his confession allowed him to witness firsthand the priest's suffering during Mass—the bleeding wounds, painful walking, and sweet perfume that sometimes emanated from his stigmata.This story arrives at the perfect moment for those navigating today's increasingly toxic culture, where doubt can easily take root. Are transformative spiritual encounters still possible? Can our hearts truly be changed? Just as Sergeant Columban's forgotten dream became reality after his divine encounter, perhaps your own spiritual journey holds similar potential for awakening and transformation.Download our Claymore battle plan today and discover how to walk this path with others who share your search for authentic faith and purpose.

Want to reach out to us? Want to leave a comment or review? Want to give us a suggestion or berate Anthony? Send us a text by clicking this link!Have you ever witnessed someone's profound spiritual awakening after years away from faith? Today we explore the miraculous spiritual resurrection that occurs when a soul returns to God through the sacrament of penance.Drawing from the Gospel of St. Luke, we contemplate Jesus raising the widow's son at Naim – a powerful metaphor for the Church weeping over souls lost to sin. St. Ambrose beautifully interprets this passage, showing how the grieving mother represents the Church herself, who never stops praying for those walking toward spiritual death. When Jesus commands "arise," we witness more than a physical resurrection; we see the pattern for spiritual revival that continues today.The testimony shared about a mother returning to confession after possibly 40 years demonstrates how our persistent prayers truly work. St. Padre Pio reassures us that "God is so good that not only does he never reject souls that convert, but he himself goes out in quest of the obstinate." This Lenten season, consider directing your sacrifices toward someone specific in your life who needs spiritual resurrection. The small annoyances we face daily, when offered up without complaint, become powerful prayers for conversion.I find particular inspiration in the connection between St. Ambrose and Augustine mentioned in today's reflection. Augustine's own journey from notorious sinner to saint, fueled by his mother Monica's relentless prayers, reminds us that no one is beyond the reach of God's mercy. Heaven truly rejoices when even one sinner returns. Whose spiritual resurrection will your prayers and sacrifices help bring about this Lent?Support the showSponsored by Recusant Cellars, an unapologetically Catholic and pro-life winery from Washington state.

Send us a text by clicking this link!Spiritual combat isn't primarily waged on dramatic battlefields but in the everyday moments of family life. This reflection for Day 27 of Lent examines how the home serves as our essential training ground for virtue.Drawing from St. John's Gospel account of Christ speaking about the temple of His body, we explore the parallel between Christ's suffering and resurrection and our own spiritual journey. The reading reminds us that just as Good Friday leads to Easter Sunday, our daily crosses lead to spiritual transformation when embraced properly.St. Padre Pio's wisdom resonates powerfully: "It is in the family home that we best learn to practice self-denial." Yet modern lifestyles have significantly diminished our time at home. Where generations before naturally developed patience and forbearance through constant proximity, today's families scatter to schools, workplaces, and activities. When frustrations arise, technology offers immediate escape rather than challenging us to work through relational difficulties.This Lenten reflection challenges us to reconsider our approach to family life. Are we seeing the irritations and challenges as burdens to avoid or opportunities for growth? Bishop Chevro counsels us to "stifle right away the movement of impatience that is pushing you to say something regrettable." These small, moment-by-moment choices form the real battleground of spiritual combat.As you journey through Lent, consider how your family interactions might be your most significant opportunity for spiritual growth. Practice accepting contradictions with faith, enduring others' faults with patience, and persevering in spiritual commitments despite challenges. In doing so, you'll discover that the cross leads not just to suffering, but ultimately to resurrection.Support the showSponsored by Recusant Cellars, an unapologetically Catholic and pro-life winery from Washington state.

Want to reach out to us? Want to leave a comment or review? Want to give us a suggestion or berate Anthony? Send us a text by clicking this link!What happens when pride confronts the simplicity of God's healing? The ancient story of Naaman washing in the Jordan River provides a powerful metaphor for our Lenten journey and approach to confession.We're approaching the halfway mark of Lent, and today's reflection invites us into a deeper understanding of the Sacrament of Penance through the lens of Naaman's healing. This Syrian general, accustomed to honor and recognition, initially rejected the prophet's simple instruction to wash in the Jordan seven times. His indignation mirrors our own resistance to spiritual practices that seem too humble to bring transformation. Yet when he finally submitted, complete healing followed.This narrative brilliantly illuminates how we should approach confession – not with reluctance or skepticism, but with the faith St. John Vianney describes as recognizing "God present in the priest," the hope that believes in God's pardoning grace, and the charity that places in our hearts regret for having offended divine love. The daily examination of conscience becomes our practical tool for preparation, helping us identify patterns that reveal the shape of our soul and highlighting areas needing correction.As St. Padre Pio reminds us, the Lord awaits us with "infinite tenderness" in the Sacrament of Penance. If your Lenten practices have faltered, now is the perfect moment to renew your commitment. Incorporate a nightly examination into your routine, work against your predominant fault, and approach confession with humility. The healing waters of God's mercy are waiting – will you step in?Support the showSponsored by Recusant Cellars, an unapologetically Catholic and pro-life winery from Washington state.

I asked St. Thérèse to send me red roses if she approved of my boyfriend becoming my fiancé. At the grocery store, right next to the pop I was about to buy, was a dozen red roses that someone had obviously dumped. ---------- Hi! Trapper Jack here. We have some very cool stories of saintly intercession! This episode emphasizes that the Saints are not objects of worship, but heavenly friends who pray for us. Elizabeth and I are still scratching our heads on how a particular ring found its way back into our kitchen and was discovered in a most impossible place. Leslie, a non-Catholic, decided to throw a prayer toward St. Anthony, in hopes of getting her dog back. She also let St. Anthony know that it was her first time, and that Trapper Jack said it was a good idea. Meanwhile, Sarah was looking to St. Thérèse of Lisieux for her usual sign of roses, if the saint was on board with Sarah's choice for a husband. A dozen red roses were soon found in the grocery store where red roses should never be found. Finally, Steve recounts his personal encounter with the future St. Padre Pio, who suddenly stopped after mass to give a special blessing to the young boy.

Allow it." - @Godlywaiting"There is a mother who is embroidering. Her son, sitting on a low stool, sees her work, but upside down. He sees the knots of the embroidery, the tangled threads and says, 'Mother, what are you doing? Your work is not at all clear.' The mother lowers the embroidery frame and shows the good part of her work, each color in its place and the variety of threads forming a harmonious design. We are seeing the reverse side of the embroidery; we are sitting on the low stool." -St. Padre Pio
3-8-25: Letter from St. Padre Pio by
Ang modern world ay puno ng pagdududa at pagwawalang-bahala sa pananampalataya, ngunit may mga bagay na hindi kayang ipaliwanag ng agham. Isa na rito ay ang katawan ng ilang mga santo na nanatiling buo at hindi nabubulok sa kabila ng paglipas ng ilang mga siglo—isang hindi maipaliwanag na hiwaga ng Simbahang Katoliko.

A totally normal guy, until ... he received the wounds of Christ in the stigmata.Unlike other stigmatists, Irving was called to a healing ministry, which may have cemented his future canonization.Please consider supporting my podcast through joining myPatreon here.

P. Juan Carlos (Ecuador)La oración une al alma con Dios. Aunque nuestra alma sea siempre semejante a Dios por su naturaleza, restaurada por la gracia, de hecho a menudo se distancia de su semejanza a consecuencia del pecado. La oración nos muestra que el alma debe querer lo que Dios quiere; reconforta la conciencia.[Ver Meditación Escrita] https://www.hablarconjesus.com/meditacion_escrita/instrumentos/
Dustin (email) – I’m in RCIA (now called OCIA) and will be a Catholic this Easter. Can I go to confession yet? (00:38) Jillian - I am praying for my in-law’s conversion.

How do we approach in our own lives the interior struggle for purity of heart, chastity? The battle, as we see in the writings of the fathers can be incredibly fierce. Part of this intense struggle is that that it is the human condition: sexuality and sensuality are part of what it is to be a human being. Furthermore, as we are in a constant state of receptivity through our senses, there are so many things that can stimulate the desires associated with this appetite. We also know that we can be lazy about understanding this reality of human life and equally lazy in the spiritual life in seeking the grace and wisdom of God to order our desires towards that which is holy. Furthermore, our struggle is also with principalities and powers. The fathers teach us that the demons are provoked by envy when they see an individual growing in holiness. Therefore, they will terrorize an individual by placing images and fantasies before them. On an emotional and spiritual level, this often gives rise to a terrible sense of shame, casting the soul into despondency and despair. As a person struggles with this passion, the sense of vulnerability is great precisely because it is such a deep part of who we are as human beings. The demons use that sense of shame to their advantage. The mere presence of thoughts tied to this passion frustrate the soul and fragment the mind. The demons will also use the shame to manipulate the way that we respond to the struggle; they will seek to make us a demonize human desire and sexuality in order that we might repress it in such a way that it distorts our perception of reality. They do so to keep our focus off of God and his grace. If they can keep us in despair and make us believe that God is disappointed with us, then they have won the battle. If we ignore them and turn the mind and the heart to God in prayer and rest in his grace then we are not only freed of their temptations, but experience the peace of the kingdom. In an uncanny way, the fathers saw and understood all of this through experience; many after 40 years of struggling came to experience freedom only through their abandonment to God and his mercy. It is then, when humbled in mind and body, that they were consoled. Having received such a gift, it then became their responsibility to console others in this delicate yet fierce struggle. --- Text of chat during the group: 00:15:28 Rachel: Hi 00:15:42 Bob Cihak, AZ: P. 188, Mid-page "From the Same Author" 00:18:05 Bob Cihak, AZ: Thanks. "Fornication" = lust as well as physical actions or interactions. if I understand correctly? 00:41:34 Forrest Cavalier: The first two accounts in this hypothesis are warning to even those who do not struggle with the intensity of this kind of temptation. Those who are unmolested are not safe by their own efforts only. God's grace is at work. 00:41:54 Rachel: I find it interesting that we can be more comfortable with admitting anger, envy, ambition and other forms of pride into the heart yet are filled with shame for temptations against purity. Do you think that other sins such as anger cease with the grace of purity of heart? 00:56:18 Rachel: Thank you. You touched upon how we see each other thank you 00:58:01 Una: I did an article years ago for the National Catholic Register about the dismal record of marriages breaking apart when the couple had been living together. Stats were very bad. 01:00:42 Vanessa: Exactly why I homeschool:) 01:03:35 MOME hermits: You are so right on with all of that Fr. David. We love your balance in it all. 01:03:58 Vanessa: Reacted to "You are so right on ..." with ❤️ 01:05:31 MOME hermits: Yes, to help facilitate the person going where they need to, to hear from God within. 01:14:10 Phil: Father, could you kindly attempt to reconcile the type of vexation that a saint like Padre Pio experienced, with the quote form Jesus in the gospels, where he says, "...my yolk is easy, my burdern is light." Thank you! 01:15:12 Rachel: Not just making a fool out of ourselves by defending our own honor but losing our very Life, christ Himself 01:23:07 Rachel: Thank you 01:23:08 Rebecca Thérèse: Thank you
