And I carried it all for you, so you could share My strength and My victory. I know, above all, your need for love, how much you are thirsting for love and tenderness. Yet, how many times have you desired to satisfy your thirst in vain, seeking that love with selfishness, trying to fill the void within you with passing pleasures, with the even greater emptiness of sin. Do you thirst for love? “Come to Me all you who thirst … ” (John 7:37).I will satisfy you and fill you. Do you thirst to be loved? I love you more than you can imagine …" - Jesus to Mother Theresa to YOU You have suffered enough.All of that Is over now.'You' are over now.The 'you' You thought you were,the life you thought You were living,the dreams you thought You had,were only coming from the one who thought they lacked.That one is no more.Now, You Have.You Are,like a phoenix rising from the ashes.This is a different state of being.A different plane.A new life.Don't be fooled.Feel.LOVE MORE.I Love you,nikLean in and listen to these words from Jesus to you, written by Mother Theresa.https://www.curlynikki.com/a-powerful-message-for-lent-2025-i-thirst-for-you.html_________________________--Blessed Rosaries are back in stock!--Wake Up to Love, and pray the Holy Rosary, pray the LOVE with us LIVE every weekday morning at 4:44 am ET

Patrick addresses a range of topics and heartfelt stories from callers around the country. The episode kicks off with Stuart from Bakersfield sharing his transformative journey from Protestantism to Catholicism, encouraged by influential Catholic literature and figures like Patrick Madrid himself.

FAN MAIL--We would love YOUR feedback--Send us a Text MessageLent is not merely about sacrificing earthly pleasures; it's an invitation to embark on a profound spiritual journey. In our latest podcast episode, we explore Dr. Scott Hahn's revelatory book, *The Fourth Cup*, which bridges the Jewish Passover with the Last Supper and unveils rich insights about Christ's ultimate sacrifice. Through this exploration, we discover how understanding the significance of the fourth cup can enhance our Lenten experience, transforming it into a season of deep reflection and growth.The discussion highlights the traditional four cups of wine consumed during the Passover, each with profound meanings tied to remembrance and liberation. Delving into these themes, we explore how Jesus refrains from drinking the fourth cup during the Last Supper, only to fulfill it on the cross, declaring “It is finished.” This comprehension not only deepens our appreciation for the Eucharist but also emphasizes the essence of sacrifice during Lent—inviting each of us to participate in Christ's love and mission.Join us as we navigate practical ways to engage more deeply with our Lenten practices! Consider picking up *The Fourth Cup*, reflecting on its themes during Mass, and participating in the Stations of the Cross.

In this episode, we begin our Lenten book study “Jesus and the Jubilee” and welcome the author, Dr. John Bergsma, to the podcast! Dr. Bergsma shares his powerful conversion story during the Great Jubilee Year in 2000 and why he felt called to write a book about this Jubilee Year of Hope. We also reflect on this Jubilee year as a time of abundant grace, why Reconciliation is the Sacrament of Jubilee, and how we can engage the virtue of hope this Lenten season. Heather's One Thing - Fathering Sons by Dominic Polito Sister Miriam's One Thing - Floriani (Chants of Deliverance CD) (Spotify) Michelle's One Thing - Jesus and the Jubilee Dr. Bergsma's One Thing - Dr. Scott Hahn's meditations on “The Seven Last Words of Christ”.

How can I approach Lent with a spirit of hope? What do I need to repent of this Lent? Discussion Questions: What is your current understanding of the Jubilee? How have you experienced interior miracles from the Lord? What stuck out to you from Dr. Bergsma's statement: “The Sacrament of Reconciliation is a perpetual Jubilee”? What is a miracle you want to pray for this Lent? Quote to Ponder: “I'm convinced in my heart that the proper response to the announcement of Jubilee 2025 should be joy, hope, and excitement. Lived well, this Jubilee Year can be a moment of miracle and grace for all of us, a kind of yearlong spiritual Christmas season in which we daily awake to open the gifts of grace that God our Father so lovingly gives us.” (Dr. John Bergsma) Scripture for Lectio: “The Spirit of the Lord God is upon me, because the Lord has anointed me to bring good tidings to the afflicted; he has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to those who are bound; to proclaim the year of the Lord's favor, and the day of vengeance of our God; to comfort all who mourn; to grant to those who mourn in Zion— to give them a garland instead of ashes, the oil of gladness instead of mourning, the mantle of praise instead of a faint spirit; that they may be called oaks of righteousness, the planting of the Lord, that he may be glorified. They shall build up the ancient ruins, they shall raise up the former devastations; they shall repair the ruined cities, the devastations of many generations.” (Isaiah 61:1-4) Sponsor - CORDA: CORDA translates the stories of the saints into scents, and handcrafts those scents into gorgeous Catholic candles.

Dr. Scott Hahn sits down with Rob Corzine to discuss keeping the Lord's Day Holy based off the text from Pope St. John Paul II's "Dies Domini" and Dr. John Bergsma's book, "Jesus and the Jubilee."
We're taking a short break this week from our series on sola Scriptura to invite you to a special event, exclusively for Protestant pastors who have become -- or are thinking seriously about becoming -- Catholics. There are certain things that only clergy converts to Catholicism can truly relate to -- such as planning your last sermon before resigning from ministry. In this episode, Ken and Kenny share how that last sermon played out for each of them, as well as who they were most afraid to tell about their decision to become Catholic, and which pastor convert was most helpful to them personally as they entered the Church. The uniqueness of this shared experience among clergy converts highlights why we are so excited to be able to partner with the St. Paul Center for a special conference designed exclusively for converts to the Catholic Faith whose background in Protestant ministry, academia, or the mission field had to be left behind when they became Catholic. The event will take place May 30-June 1 at the St. Paul Center in Steubenville, OH, near the campus of Franciscan University. We're keeping the event small so everyone can have a chance to talk to everyone else and share experiences, but many of the names of those involved are ones you already know: Dr. Scott Hahn, Dr. John Bergsma, Msgr. Jeffrey Steenson, and of course, Ken Hensley and Kenny Burchard, all of whom served as Protestant pastors of some kind before becoming Catholic. If you're a Catholic convert from a professional ministry background, we'd love to see you there! Please reach out to us if you're interested. More information: chnetwork.org/clergyconference We'll be back next week with another episode in our ongoing series on sola Scriptura!

Fr. Matthew Spencer joins Patrick to discuss the Presentation of the Lord What is the presentation? (7:58) Why is obedience so important? Mark - Obedience.

Why should we read Scripture? And how should we read the Bible? And, as the Ethiopian eunuch asked Philip in Acts 8, how can we understand unless someone guides us? A team of Biblical scholars, led by Scott Hahn and Curtis Mitch, have put together the Ignatius Study Bible – with notes, context, themes, and more – to help us understand the grand arc of salvation history as the Lord unveils it to us through Scripture. Curtis Mitch, who worked on this project for 21 years, joins Bishop Caggiano on Let Me Be Frank to talk about the Bible and seeing the metanarrative of Scripture.

Join me for an inspiring conversation with author and theologian Dr. Scott Hahn as he shares his remarkable journey from a rebellious teenager to a devoted follower of Jesus. Dr. Hahn recounts his transformative discovery of the Catholic Church through scripture and the writings of the Church Fathers—an experience that challenged his biases, strained friendships, and even tested his marriage. At the heart of this discussion is a profound exploration of the Eucharist, the central focus of the Mass, and its rich foreshadowing in biblical references to the sacrifice of the lamb.
