Scripture Reflection for July 10, 2025: You Were Rejected for a Reason…Just Like Joseph by Priests for Life

Friends of the Rosary,Priests, bishops, cardinals, and popes throughout the centuries are the descendants of the twelve apostles of the Lord, who Christ Jesus summoned at that time to proclaim the kingdom of heaven, as we read today in the Gospel of Matthew (Matthew 10:1-7).These first disciples and apprentices were sent on a mission with the authority to drive out demons and unclean spirits and cure every disease and illness.They were instructed to rescue "the lost sheep of the house of Israel.""The names of the Twelve Apostles are these:first, Simon called Peter, and his brother Andrew;James, the son of Zebedee, and his brother John;Philip and Bartholomew,Thomas and Matthew the tax collector;James, the son of Alphaeus, and Thaddeus;Simon the Cananean, and Judas Iscariotwho betrayed Jesus."Ave Maria!Jesus, I Trust In You!Come, Holy Spirit, come!To Jesus through Mary!Here I am, Lord; I come to do your will.Please give us the grace to respond with joy!+ Mikel Amigot w/ María Blanca | RosaryNetwork.com, New YorkEnhance your faith with the new Holy Rosary University app:Apple iOS | New!

They Dropped Everything to Follow Him…Would You? Scripture Reflection for July 9, 2025 by Priests for Life

One of the biggest crying needs of the day is a faith continuity from one generation to the next. There's nothing more important than seeing the hearts of fathers turning to the children, and the hearts of children turning to the fathers. This is prayer burden—asking for the Spirit to work through our families and churches, and to bring repentance. One way this happens is when men embrace their God-given responsibilities and callings on their lives as husbands and fathers, conscientiously and intentionally shepherding their wives and children. On this edition of the program, Kevin Swanson and Joel Beeke discuss Joel's new book, How to Lead Your Family: A Guide to Men Wanting to Be More, on practical ways men can be prophets, priests, and kings within their homes. This program includes: 1. The World View in 5 Minutes with Adam McManus (Indian legislator offers money to assassinate pastors, Texas Governor called for a Day of Prayer for flood victims, Iranian Christians losing hope about regime change) 2. Generations with Kevin Swanson

A new MP3 sermon from Generations Radio is now available on SermonAudio with the following details: Title: How to Lead Your Family - Being Prophets, Priests, and Kings in Our Homes Subtitle: Being Prophets, Priests, Kings Speaker: Kevin Swanson Broadcaster: Generations Radio Event: Radio Broadcast Date: 7/8/2025 Length: 41 min.

Scripture Reflection for July 7, 2025: “The Lord is in this place!” by Priests for Life

Join Fr Rob as he reflects on the Sunday Gospel readings and how we can apply these reflections to our lives today. 14th Sunday In Ordinary TimeGospel: Luke 10:1-9

Can someone with a water allergy be baptized? Why do priests receive both species of the Eucharist while the laity often don't? In this episode of Catholic Answers Live, we take on some of the most thought-provoking questions about Catholic doctrine and tradition. Topics include evangelizing Jewish people, the theological necessity of Marian dogmas, recognizing divine inspiration in Scripture, and reconciling the joy of heaven with the loss of loved ones. We also address questions about God's providence versus coincidence, and near-death experiences involving deceased relatives. Whether you’re exploring Catholic teachings or deepening your faith, this Q&A offers clear, faithful answers rooted in Church teaching. Ideal for those curious about baptism, Eucharistic theology, salvation, and how Catholics understand prophecy and the afterlife. Join The CA Live Club Newsletter: Click Here Invite our apologists to speak at your parish! Visit Catholicanswersspeakers.com Questions Covered: 02:10 – How would the Church baptize someone with a topical allergy to water, where contact with water causes hives but drinking it is fine? 08:15 – Did the Old Testament prophets know they were prophets? Did the New Testament writers know they were divinely inspired when writing? 18:22 – How can heaven be a place of perfect joy if a loved one, such as a child, does not attain eternal life? Wouldn't we notice their absence and grieve? 22:15 – What is the Church's current teaching on evangelizing Jewish people? Does God's promise of the land to the Jewish people still apply under the New Covenant? 29:45 – Why is the Eucharistic cup often withheld from the laity? Jesus instructed us to eat His body and drink His blood. If the host contains both, why does the priest still consume both species separately? 34:58 – Why are the dogmas of the Immaculate Conception, Bodily Assumption, and Perpetual Virginity necessary for salvation from a theological standpoint? What core gospel truths are denied if these are rejected? 43:43 – If someone nearing death sees and speaks to deceased family members, does that mean those individuals are in Heaven or could they still be in Purgatory? What if certain people don't appear—does that imply anything about their final destination? 50:01 – Is everything part of God's plan, or do coincidences exist?

(3:07) Bible Study: Ephesians 2:19-22 What is the sign of a true profit? Father explains. John 20:24-29 Jesus shows us that He is always with us in this passage. (18:32) Break 1 (21:42) Letters: What is the difference between monks and priests and their vows? How much does God want us to go to heaven? Father answers these and other questions, send him a letter at simon@relevantradio.com (36:21) Break 2 (37:39) Word of the Day Dwelling Place (39:05) Phones: Mary - Does everyone have their own Guardian angel. Greg - Monks also take a vow of stability. Geneveva - Jesus sent the demons into the pigs. Explain that reading Please Susan - My daughter is in a same sex marriage. They used IVF to have a child. I don’t recognize the baby as my grandchild. Bridget - question about the creed. When it says God will judge the living and the dead. aren't the dead already judged?

Scripture Reflection for July 3, 2025: A Divine Heart Transplant (recorded earlier) by Priests for Life

In this episode of Catholic Answers Live, we tackle a wide range of thoughtful questions from callers of various faith backgrounds. Topics include the similarities and differences between Catholicism and Latter-day Saint beliefs, a clear explanation of purgatory, and why only the priest consumes the Precious Blood during Mass. We also discuss whether purgatory is purification or punishment, the role of baptism in Christian unity, and the theological significance of the 1,000 years after Armageddon. Additional questions explore the Catholic view on salvation versus universalism, the Greek wording in Scripture regarding Jesus' “brothers,” and how to make sense of the brokenness in the world today—especially in children. Join The CA Live Club Newsletter: Click Here Invite our apologists to speak at your parish! Visit Catholicanswersspeakers.com Questions Covered: 04:47 – Are there any similarities between Latter-day Saint (LDS) and Catholic beliefs? 08:20 – What is a simple explanation of purgatory for someone unfamiliar with Catholic teaching? 16:36 – Why is it only the priest who consumes the wine during Mass? 22:20 – Is purgatory meant to be purification or punishment? 25:13 – If baptism is the great unifying sacrament among Christians, why doesn't it allow all baptized Christians to receive Communion? 31:41 – What is the meaning and significance of the 1,000 years after Armageddon, and how does it compare with the concept of purgatory? 35:29 – How does the Catholic view of salvation differ from Christian universalism? 43:37 – What does the Greek in Scripture indicate about Jesus' brothers and whether Mary was their mother? 50:43 – Why does so much brokenness exist in the world, especially as seen in children?

In this episode, catch some behind-the-scenes as I pressed record on a topic my friend was curious about! Half way through the recording I realized this content would be VERY helpful for other starting entrepreneurs... not just my friend Krista. Lee started by referencing Revelation 1:5-6, "To Him who loved us and washed us from our sins in His own blood, 6 and has made us kings and priests to His God and Father, to Him be glory and dominion forever and ever. Amen." And from there shared about Kingdom roles in business and ministry!

Exodus 19:1-8

On this episode of the SSPX Interview Series, we sit down with Fr. David Fulton, a diocesan priest of twenty-one years who has spent the last two immersed in the Society's Priests' Training Program. In this episode, Father speaks openly about the challenges he faced in a diocesan environment, particularly the limitations in liturgy, catechesis, and the transmission of the Faith to souls hungry for clarity. We hear what first prompted Father to look more deeply into the traditional liturgy, why the SSPX stood out as the right path forward, and how he navigated the difficult break with his diocese. He gives us an inside look at the Priests' Training Program, especially its intellectual formation, liturgical training, and strong community life. Finally, he offers encouragement to fellow priests who may feel the same longing for Tradition. Now preparing for his first SSPX assignment in Phoenix, Fr. Fulton joins us for Episode 11 of the SSPX Interview Series, reflecting on what he's learned, what he's gained, and the work that still lies ahead View this episode on YouTube: https://youtu.be/I9CQU0RmqTo  See all the episodes: https://sspxpodcast.com/interview We'd love your feedback on this series! podcast@sspx.org – – – – – – – The Society of Saint Pius X offers this series and all of its content free of charge.

The main goal of the Society of Saint Pius X is to preserve the Catholic Faith in its fullness and purity, to teach its truths, and to diffuse its virtues, especially through the Roman Catholic priesthood.

Friends of the Rosary,Today, on the Friday after the Second Sunday after Pentecost (Corpus Christi Sunday), is the Solemnity of the Most Sacred Heart of Jesus, signifying that Christ loves every one of us, without exception, with a human heart."The Son of God... loved me and gave himself for me" (Gal 2:20).The Catechism of the Catholic Church (478) explains, "Jesus knew and loved us each and all during his life, his agony and his Passion, and gave himself up for each one of us."The Sacred Heart of Jesus, pierced by our sins and for our salvation (Cf. Jn 19:34), reflects the infinite love of the divine Redeemer.The institution of the feast was a result of the appearances of our Lord to St. Margaret Mary Alacoque in 1675.

Scripture Reflection for June 26, 2025: God Loves Us All by Priests for Life

A new MP3 sermon from Alpha and Omega Ministries is now available on SermonAudio with the following details: Title: Priests and Confession, Real Purgatory, TR Onlyism, and More! Subtitle: The Dividing Line 2025 Speaker: Dr. James White Broadcaster: Alpha and Omega Ministries Event: Podcast Date: 6/24/2025 Length: 67 min.

There's nothing like the NBA and NHL Finals… unless you count professional pillow fighting.  In this episode, Father Dave and Deacon Bob celebrate the end of the sports season with a rundown of the Stanley Cup, the NBA Finals, and the rise of summer's strangest athletic events, including the Pillow Fighting Championship (yes, it's real).  But the heart of the episode is hope—the kind that doesn't come from scores or summer plans, but from Christ. They reflect on the Eucharist, the Sacred and Immaculate Hearts, and the graces poured out at recent conferences at Franciscan and Notre Dame. From youth ministry to marriage milestones, they explore what it means to trust God with both our spiritual and everyday needs.  Naturally, they go off on tangents, from hotel bathrobes and awkward airline announcements to anniversary shoutouts and the idea of launching a Franciscan pillow-fighting team (tentative name: the Franciscan Feathers).    Highlighted Sections  (00:00) Bathrobes, Notre Dame, and the $175 Upcharge  Deacon Bob checks in from the Morris Inn at the University of Notre Dame, complimentary robe included. He's there for Notre Dame Vision, a youth program inviting high schoolers into deeper faith. (03:30) Sports Wrap and the Rise of Pillow Fighting  From there, they pivot to sports: the Florida Panthers clinch the Stanley Cup, Oklahoma City Thunder top the Pacers in Game 7, and Canada's Stanley Cup drought continues. And just when you think sports can't get weirder—enter the Pillow Fighting Championship, now with corporate sponsorships and, apparently, rules.  (10:31) Augustine and Airport Public Shaming  Fr. Dave highlights a recent In Focus episode featuring Dr. Shane Owens, where they unpack the enduring relevance of St. Augustine's Confessions in a world increasingly shaped by AI and secular culture. The conversation quickly pivots, though, as Deacon Bob shares a less lofty moment: a painfully awkward moment from his flight to South Bend, where a bathroom break turned into a public shaming over the intercom.  (19:29) Hope as Grace: Conferences and Franciscan Honeymoon  Father Dave shares stories from the Power and Purpose Conference, themed around hope. He reflects on hope as a grace—not just good vibes or optimism—and mentions a couple who spent their 50th wedding anniversary and a couple on their honeymoon at the same event.  (23:01) Corpus Christi and the God Who Satisfies  Jesus didn't just meet spiritual needs. He fed the crowds too. Father Dave and Deacon Bob explore how our trust in God is often strong in the abstract, but wavers in daily stresses. They tie it back to Corpus Christi, Romans 5, and the gift of the Holy Spirit.  (28:34) Sacred Hearts, Summer Kickoffs, and Marriage Milestones  Deacon Bob celebrates 28 years of marriage on the same day as the Feast of the Immaculate Heart of Mary. He also gives a shoutout to the kickoff of Franciscan's high school youth conferences and the ongoing Priests, Deacons, and Seminarians Retreat.  (31:10) Praying for Peace in a Complicated World  The hosts close with a prayer for peace amid global tensions, especially in the Middle East and Ukraine. They close with a reflection on Pope Leo's Angelus invitation to prayer and remind listeners that lasting peace only comes from the Heart of Christ.    Resources & Mentions  ·                     Power and Purpose Conference – A weekend of renewal, prayer, and worship through Steubenville Conferences.   ·                     Notre Dame Vision – A summer youth program helping teens hear God's call.  ·                     Romans 15:13 and Romans 5:5 – Scriptures that anchor this episode's theme of hope  ·                     Pope Leo XIV: Son of St. Augustine– Watch the latest In Focus episode with guest Dr. Shane Owens on Faith & Reason.   ·                     Pillow Fighting Championship– Yes, it's real. Yes, it has rules. Yes, you're going to Google it.
