A visit to the Los Angeles Catholic Archdiocese gives the opportunity to enter a world envisioned by the L. A. Archbishop Jose Gomez, and Pope Francis just days after his passing. And how can we describe that vision? One way is to picture the great power of a Church with a following of five million across the expanse of Parishes in Southern California, dedicating this power to making a better life for all, Catholic and non-Catholic. The vision manifests itself clearly in the subject of this episode - the Archdiocese Office of Life, Justice and Peace. Michael Donaldson, Office Director, and Jeanette Gomez Senerviatne, Director of the Whole Person, are carrying forward all that Pope Francis and Archbishop Gomez would hope for. They are addressing the most pressing issues in every community they serve, giving voice to the voiceless, collaborating with and creating partnerships to bring supportive resources to individuals and families. Listen to how their programming acts as a showcase for good emanating from a global city like Los Angeles. At this time, as the three of us sat together in conversation, grateful for Pope Francis, we are dedicating the episode to him, and remembering the way he brought us to focus on the suffering while celebrating the joy of life. The Office of Life, Justice and Peace will continue developing projects and activities in that spirit. “Hope never disappoints”, is what he said in his last Easter message to the world.

Fr. Ben had extra cherries in his kitchen, so we whipped several batches of clafoutis. Don't know what that is? Watch and you'll find out! What makes some parishes thrive and others remain stale? Fr. Ben researches this question online by seeing what people post and what surveys say. He reveals his findings and discusses them with Khira and Silvia. Thank you for listening. We'd love to hear from you! You can email us at soulfoodpriestmemphis@gmail.com or at Soul Food Priest Facebook page to submit questions or follow us on YouTube!

In this episode, I sit down with Melissa Wilkinson, powerhouse Catholic speaker and founder of Anchored With a Purpose, who also works with Rebuilt Parish to help revitalize Catholic communities.Melissa shares her passion for helping women live out their God-given identity, how she equips parishes to better serve their people, and why she believes the Church needs bold, faithful leadership now more than ever. We also dive into her personal story of discovering her voice, battling doubt, and stepping into her calling with confidence and clarity.Whether you're a woman looking for purpose, someone working in ministry, or just feeling stuck in your faith—this conversation will inspire you to rise up, root yourself in Christ, and use your gifts for the Kingdom.

Why is it so hard to get more volunteers? The same 10% of parishioners seem do 90% of the work. The key to changing this isn't just recruiting more volunteers—it's making disciples. People step up when they feel seen, invited, and part of something meaningful. That starts with personal relationships. Instead of generic announcements, we need to reach out individually, explain the impact of their involvement, and walk with them on their faith journey. When people feel valued and supported, they naturally want to serve. In today's episode, I talk with John Poitevent, founder of Great Catholic Parishes, about how personal invitations and a culture of belonging transform parish engagement. We discuss the power of clear roles, training, and encouragement—because when people know they matter, they show up. Listen in and let's build a parish where everyone has a role to play.

In this episode of the Say Yes to Holiness podcast, Christina Semmens sits down with Edmund Mitchell, Founder of Zealous Parish Ministries and have a conversation about Edmund's journey from being a cradle Catholic to becoming a passionate parish minister. They discuss the importance of evangelization within the parish, the mission of the parish to save souls, and the transition from maintenance to mission-oriented churches. This conversation was especially near and dear to my heart due to my work at The Catholic Leadership Puzzle, so was excited to give Edmund a chance to introduce his new initiative, Zealous Parish Ministers, aimed at supporting parish ministers in their roles. Edmund also emphasized the need for continuous formation and skill development in ministry. The conversation highlights the significance of vision casting and various roles a parish minister must embody to effectively lead their community. TakeawaysEdmund's journey reflects a deep love for Jesus and evangelization.Parishes are crucial for local evangelization efforts.The mission of the parish is to invite all souls into God's family.Transitioning from maintenance to mission is essential for parish vitality.Zealous Parish Ministers aims to support parish staff in their roles.Continuous formation is vital for parish ministers' effectiveness.Understanding the three roles of a parish minister enhances ministry impact.Vision casting is a key discipline for effective leadership.The parish boundary includes all souls, not just registered members.Resources like 'The Advantage' can help parish ministers develop essential skills.Sound Bites"Parishes can't be just maintenance.""We need to help parish ministers thrive.""Zeal for my house will consume me."Chapters00:00 Introduction to Evangelization and Parish Ministry 03:01 Edmund's Journey: From Cradle Catholic to Parish Minister 06:00 The Role of the Parish in Evangelization 09:02 Defining the Mission of the Parish 11:57 Transitioning from Maintenance to Mission 15:00 Launching Zealous Parish Ministers 17:56 The Importance of Continuous Formation 20:48 Skills for Effective Parish Ministry 24:11 The Three Roles of a Parish Minister 26:52 Vision Casting and Its Importance 30:02 Conclusion and Resources for Parish MinistersFor more information about Edmund and Zealous Parish Ministers, go to: https://edmundmitchell.com/ and https://www.zealousparishministers.co/

In this episode, we continue our Lenten book study and focus on chapters 3 & 4. We discuss the Ten Commandments, how they teach us to say yes to true freedom, and why our voluntary yes helps us live in deeper communion with God and those around us. We also reflect on finding Eden in our Churches or homes, discovering our golden calves, and the significance of doing our daily duty well.   Heather's One Thing - Abundance of Grace Prints Sister Miriam's One Thing - Vickie, Chris, and Fr. Patrick at Holy Trinity and St. Michael's Parishes in Kewaskum, WI (See the picture on our website here)  Michelle's One Thing - The Richest Leprechaun in Ireland by Elise Daniel   Announcement: It's not too late to order your copy of “Jesus and the Jubilee” at the St. Paul Center with promo code “ABIDE15” for 15% off. There are also bulk discounts available.    Journal Questions: How is my experience of the Church being broken open and expanded throughout this study? Where have I been filling myself with things other than the Lord? Where have I been the unfaithful bride to the Lord? How do I rationalize your idols and areas of bondage in daily life? Do I allow myself to rest well and rest deeply?   Discussion Questions: How can we create a space in our home for people to rest? How have you experienced authentic freedom and sanctity in the “no's” of Christianity and the Commandments? What external and internal structures in different areas of your life help to sustain your freedom? How are you tempted to replace the honest work of doing your daily duty well with other good things?   Quote to Ponder: “But they lacked the garden-sanctuary of Eden. The Israelites were going to need a place where God could walk and talk with his children. Also, they had a long journey ahead through the desert to the Promised Land, a land flowing with milk and honey (an image of Eden), so their meeting-place with God had to be portable. Therefore, Moses went back up the mountain to get instructions for the tabernacle. The tabernacle would be a portable Eden, a place of communion and rest.” (Jesus and the Jubilee, John Bergsma, Page 38)   Scripture for Lectio: “Every fifty years, the Day of Atonement also marked the beginning of the jubilee year. God commanded Moses on the day of atonement you shall send abroad the trumpet throughout all your land. And you shall hallow the fiftieth year, and proclaim liberty throughout the land to all its inhabitants; it shall be a jubilee for you, when each of you shall return to his property and each of you shall return to his family.” (Leviticus 25: 9–10)   Sponsor - Camp Wojtyla: Are you looking for a transformative experience for your middle school or high school student?

“Take the next step, whatever that might be.” Fr. Mario Amore joins Men of the Hearts hosts Fr. Craig Giera and Fr. Drew Mabee to talk about his journey to the priesthood. His path was full of twists and turns, with stops in altar service and music ministry. After applying to Sacred Heart Major Seminary and subsequently delaying enrollment for two years, Fr. Mario finally took “the next step” to answer God's call. (0:26) Hosts Fr. Craig Giera and Fr. Drew Mabee introduce their guest this month, Father Mario Amore, Director of Evangelization and Missionary Discipleship for the Archdiocese of Detroit who also serves as a priest in solidum for the Resurget Cineribus Family of Parishes, which includes St. Aloysius, Old St. Mary's, and the Cathedral of the Most Blessed Sacrament. Fr. Amore reflects on his last few months, including Christmas and the annual SEEK conference. (6:55) Fr. Mario is no stranger to podcasts, having previously hosted the Archdiocese of Detroit's I AM HERE podcast in support of the National Eucharistic Revival. Our hosts join Fr. Mario in a discussion about some of the beautiful stories shared through that effort. Fr. Mario also shares his experience hosting the Certifiably Catholic podcast alongside Mary Wilkerson and Mike Chamberland, current hosts of Archbishop Vigneron's Eyes on Jesus podcast.(12:25) Fr. Drew and Fr. Craig reflect on their last few months. Fr. Drew has been “learning the lay of the land” at his assignment in Novi and recently had dinner with his brother and a longtime friend. Meanwhile, Fr. Craig has been encouraged by increasing attendance at Sacred Heart Major Seminary's recent Discernment Weekends. The group also talks about the significance of altar serving to encourage vocations to the priesthood.(20:12) Fr. Mario shares his vocation story. He attended Catholic school as a child and attended Mass every Saturday evening with his family, “doing whatever I had to do to embarrass [my parents].” Still, he remembers his maternal grandfather predicting that he would become a priest one day. He started serving the parish as an altar server before taking a detour into music ministry as a teenager. Ultimately, his interest in theology led him to explore taking classes at Sacred Heart Major Seminary, which he calls his “first foot in the door” of discerning the priesthood. (33:11) Fr. Mario recalls attending a discernment weekend at Sacred Heart. He was already familiar with the academic experience of the seminary, having taken classes since high school, but his discernment weekend affirmed for him that he could find joy in the brotherhood and community of Sacred Heart. After working in a parish for two more years, Fr. Mario finally decided to apply to become a seminarian—but waited and discerned another two years before officially entering the seminary.(44:53) Fr. Mario talks about his time as a seminarian at Sacred Heart, his ordination in 2015, and celebrating his first Mass at St. Pius X in Southgate on the anniversary of his baptism at the same church. He also touches on what it's like to serve both as a parish priest and Detroit as Director of Evangelization and Missionary Discipleship for the Archdiocese of Detroit. He then offers his advice to men considering the priesthood: “Take the next step, whatever that might be.” The episode concludes with a prayer and blessing.

Fr. Harry and Fr. Anthony respond to a listener's question about His Beatitude Archbishop Anastasios of Tirana, Durrës and All Albania of blessed memory - may his memory be eternal! This led to a discussion about autocephaly, patriarchates, metropolitanates, eparchies, and parishes. Lord willing, future episodes will explore these and other ecclesial issues using Fr. Harry's book; "Christ's Amazing Church: A Journey in Orthodox Ecclesiology" as its guide. Enjoy the show!

Most parishes want to evangelize. Few know how to actually do it effectively.In this episode, Matt sits down with Jim Jansen, longtime missionary, ministry leader, and author of A Clear Path. Jim has spent over 25 years in full-time ministry, from being one of the first-ever Focus missionaries to leading parish renewal efforts in the Archdiocese of Omaha. His experience has given him a front-row seat to what actually works—and what doesn't—when it comes to making disciples.We dive into the real obstacles that keep parishes stuck in maintenance mode and unpack the simple, structured path that leads people from casual faith to fully living on mission. We also talk about the power of temperaments, how to actually build effective ministry teams, and why most people don't evangelize (hint: it's not because they don't know enough).If you've ever wondered why your parish isn't growing, why small groups feel stagnant, or why people aren't stepping into leadership, this conversation will challenge and equip you.Want to build a thriving parish? ► Start here with Jim's Book, A Clear Path: How to Make Missionary Disciples in Your Parish.► Discover your temperament here.► Get your Temperaments and Ministry Guide here.Send us a textSupport the show____________________ ► Make sure to SUBSCRIBE to the Metanoia Catholic YouTube Channel!► Find out your temperament: Take the Free Quiz► Take the Quiz: WHAT TYPE OF COACH ARE YOU?► GET THE DAILY SEVEN JOURNAL!This interactive journal will help you transform your life from the inside out by teaching you how to grow in gratitude, set healthy goals, and gain mastery over your thoughts.► JOIN THE ACADEMY!Your online resource of classes, tools, and community to ramp up your growth and really change your life.

One of the reasons that I've decided to prolong our study by reading this letter of St. John Climacus is that it speaks to our hearts about not only our interior life, the struggle with the passions and the growth of the virtues, but it also exhorts us - warning us that the care of others in love, our concern for their spiritual well-being trumps all things. In other words, our spiritual life cannot lead us to become self focused. Rather, it is meant to create hearts that are selfless and attentive to others and their needs.  What St John says about the care of souls and the responsibilities of spiritual elders he says to all of us. The consolation that we have received from Christ and the wisdom that he has bestowed upon us in our spiritual life and through experience is not our own possession. We seek to console as we have been consoled. We seek to protect as we have been protected by the grace of God and the guidance that we have received at the hands of others. The Church is not a business nor is it to function like one. We come to Church and receive the Sacrament not to “take something” for ourselves. We are drawn into the very life of the Holy Trinity and our “Amen” when receiving this gift means that we are saying “so be it” - let this be the reality in my life!  Like the good Shepherd, I will lay down my life for the good of others. We can never set aside our identity to fit in with society, any more than a spiritual elder can set aside his responsibility and his role of guiding and forming others. Therefore, this letter we are reading is not simply a pious exhortation but rather a call to revolution; that is, a call to radical repentance. We must turn to God in every way in order that by His grace we might love others as He has loved us. --- Text of chat during the group: 00:04:54 susan: asking prayers for my son peter and 16 week pregnant wife in la brea la below fires. 00:11:19 Rebecca Thérèse: Reacted to "asking prayers for m..." with

This Orthodox Moment: Timely Trend or Fleeting Fad? • Parishes around the United States are seeing an unprecedented number of inquirers and converts. The secular press is noting the movement and the online apologists of various religions are fighting back. What's really going on here and where is all this headed?

Have you ever wondered how to bring the Lord into your work, expanding your prayer life beyond personal devotion? In this episode, we explore missional prayer—prayer that aligns our hearts with the Holy Spirit, focusing on the transformation of our parishes and neighborhoods. It's about moving beyond inward devotion to intentional, outward-facing prayer for mission and evangelization. Discover how coming together as a community to seek God's guidance and power can bring about renewal and fruitfulness in our mission. Learn to pray with a purpose, trusting that God wants to work through us to reach those who don't yet know Him.
