It is an immemorial custom to make resolutions at the start of a new year. Yet, rarely are these resolutions kept. Far too often we make broad resolutions that are impossible to keep. The better course is to particularize our resolutions, focusing on specific faults, and hoping, by the grace of God, we can overcome them.

Patrick spotlights issues from US-Israel relations, beginning with vintage Nixon audio, to the anguish of Nigerian Christians and the struggle for truth amid religious confusion. Listeners bring honest questions about doctrine, personal pain, and family battles; Patrick responds with stories, book suggestions, candid advice, and moments both sharp and compassionate. Surprises, raw emotion, and faith collide as Patrick talks history, prayer, and everyday dilemmas.

Material riches are not the key to happiness. This is a lesson repeated through both Scripture and popular culture, yet most struggle to accept it. Our Lord came to us in poverty. Although our respective stations in life may call upon us to have material resources, we must not abandon the call to have poverty of spirit, that is, detachment from material goods.

The mystery of Christmas reveals the great goodness of God. To appreciate this gift, we must reflect on our own rebelliousness, stubbornness, and pride. This is why it was necessary for Our Lord to go to the extraordinary length to provide the unfathomable gift of His Incarnation for the sole purpose of saving us. God chose not to break us down through His strength, but rather lowered Himself to become one of us to lead humanity from darkness to light.

Let us rejoice in the birth of Our Lord. Let us rejoice in this incredible miracle that has freed us from the bondage of sin. He has arrived to overcome the curse of sin. He stands victorious over satan out of His great love for us, His creation. He stands triumphant, renouncing the deeds of the flesh, ushering us into God's kingdom by His miraculous Incarnation.

Holy Mother Church gives us an entire season to prepare for the reception of Our Lord Jesus Christ in the Eucharist. It is easy for us to reproach ourselves that we did not spend this season preparing ourselves adequately for such a wonderful gift. However, when we look to the Blessed Virgin, we are given an exquisite model of the proper disposition we ought to take. She demonstrates the humility, openness, and abandonment to Divine Providence that we are all called to accept.

Mother Miriam Live - December 22nd, 2025 Mother reads a story titled "Waiting for the Christ Child," by Michael Matt. Mother responds to emails and YouTube comments on the topics of spending too much time on secular Christmas traditions, gender dysphoria, the SSPX, and more.

The love we feel for one another as demonstrated in the love of Hilaire Belloc for his wife is minute compared for the love Our Lord Jesus Christ has for us. Our Lord came across time, willing to submit Himself as a child, in order to save us. There is no greater love.

#catholic #sspx #adventThere are two comings of Our Lord Jesus Christ, the first at Christmas and the second at the Last Judgment.St. Paul speaks of the Last Judgment today when he says: “pass no judgment before the time, until the Lord comes, Who will both bring to light the things hidden in darkness and make manifest the counsels of hearts.”We know this is one of the characteristics of the Last Judgment: everything will be revealed.But this is also one of the characteristics of the First Coming of Our Lord: His first coming brought to light many things that were hidden before.Recall what the old man Simeon said in prophecy to Our Lady, in the very same chapter as today's Gospel, when He says that Our Lord will be a light of revelation to the Gentiles.The first chapter of St. John's Gospel, which we read at the end of every Mass, also speaks of Our Lord as the light in His first coming, saying that He is “the true light, which enlighteneth every man that cometh into this world”.And in this time of Advent, the Church quotes for us this prophetical passage from Isaias: “The people that sat in darkness, hath seen great light: and to them that sat in the region of the shadow of death, light is sprung up” (Is. 9:2). St. Matthew tells us that this prophecy was fulfilled by the preaching of Our Lord.The light that Our Lord brought to the world with His first Coming is very great:He showed us clearly what our purpose is, what we are made for.He taught us the moral law in a much clearer way than the Old Testament did. Recall the Sermon on the Mount, which shines a new light on the Ten Commandments. By doing this, He gave us a much clearer idea of what is good and what is evil, what is sinful and what is not.Our Lord showed us clearly the meaning of suffering and how the Cross is a valuable part of our life, if we bear it with humility and resignation.Our Lord showed us clearly the way that we must live our lives, if we are to fulfill our God-given purpose.Our Lord gave us the fullness of revelation, all of the supernatural truths that we need to know in order to unite ourselves with God.St. John says of Our Lord that “His life was the light of men”. His life and His teaching changed the course of the world simply because Our Lord brought a light into this world that it had never seen before and which can never be exceeded.But, as you know, the reaction to this light was very different on the part of those who received it in Our Lord's lifetime.When you are in a dark room for some time and then you go outside, the light is too bright for your eyes. There are three things that you can do:Go back inside and return to the darkness.Close your eyes to the light and try to walk in a state of blindness.Allow your eyes to hurt for a little while until they are able to adjust to the brightness.These represent the three types of reactions to Our Lord's light both in His time and ours.

Today, the second part of the interview that we did back in late 2019 with Fr. Patrick Summers, the District Superior of Asia. This is a continuation of the interview we re-released last week, so if you haven't heard that yet, just go back one episode in your podcast player or here on YouTube – but today, we'll continue our discussion by diving a bit more into the SSPX apostolate in Japan. But first, last week we talked a lot about challenges. So to kick off this part of the interview, I wanted to ask about some of the good things – the beautiful parts of working in Asia, the edifying things that give Fr. Summers a great joy.

Even from prison, St. Paul insists on throwing off anxiety and remaining in the peace of Jesus Christ. This should provide us with an opportunity to reflect on what in life denies us peace. Surely, sin is the great disrupter of peace and sin is the direct result of the disorders present in our lives. Anxiety, too, robs us of peace. To overcome this anxiety, we must both look at all things with the eyes of faith and mortify our thoughts.

The blindness of the Pharisee's as to the identity of the true Messiah was not limited to the time of His baptism, but lasted throughout the life of Our Lord Jesus Christ. Indeed, it has continued through the life of the Church. Just like the people who lived in Christ's lifetime, people down through the ages up until today fail to recognize Our Lord in their midst. Rather than submit themselves to God, they cling to their conception of who the Messiah should be and thereby reject the only true one.

#catholic #sspx #sermonDoctors tell us that if we want our bodies to be healthy, we must exercise our bodies regularly. If our bodies are always at a state of rest, not moving, not straining, they will deteriorate over time.It is interesting to note that many exercises consist of pushing back against gravity. We have this force of gravity that is always being exercised upon us, which pulls us down. We find that, if we sometimes work against that force of gravity, if we strain our bodies against it, it is helpful for our bodies, rather than just letting gravity always pull us down.We can think about the exercises of pull ups, push ups, sit ups, and so on. There is a kettlebell exercise where you simply hold a weight above your head and walk with it.God has made our body in such a way that it needs periodic movement and strain in order for them to be in good health.Today, I want to speak to you about a spiritual exercise that is like the anti-gravity bodily exercises. It consists in pushing back against the weight of our fallen human nature that is always weighing down upon us.Our fallen nature works on our souls like the force of gravity works on our bodies. It is always pulling us down to earthly things. We can think of our souls as naturally being stooped over and always tending to look at ourselves, to want creature comforts, to be consumed with the things of this world.If we made a log of what we are always thinking about for one day, we might be surprised. We might find a lot of vanity, selfishness, and pride in our thoughts.Just as if we leave our bodies alone and do nothing with them, they fall apart, so too with our souls. If we let them live this way all the time, we will lose them. Our souls will be always consumed with the things of this earth and will end up falling into hell rather than rising up to Heaven.At the beginning of this season of Advent, we heard these words of Our Lord: “when these things begin to come to pass, look up, and lift up your heads, because your redemption is at hand.”We have to be continually be lifting our souls up to heavenly things. This is the spiritual exercise I would like to talk about. It consists in lifting our souls up to God throughout the day.Sometimes, you will hear this referred to as the “practice of the presence of God”. In other places, you will hear it referred to as the practice of recollection.

Patrick sparks a lively conversation, switching from bagpipes overcoming a call to prayer to the shock of Rob Reiner’s tragic death and reflections on cultural legacy. Listener questions on baptism’s connection to circumcision and biblical translation history stir rapid back-and-forth, while urgent talk on fertility, terrorism, and faith fills the hour. Humor and honesty cut through every topic, unexpected and bold.

(10:28) Steve – Is it true that the Church's translation of the Bible had errors in it for 1900 years? (21:48) Bob - I want to say that I have worked with Muslims before. They said that they will overpopulate us. (28:03) Lou - About the SSPV breaking off from SSPX. They are not sedevacantists? They have a hands-off approach. I am part of SSPV. (31:13) Tom (email) – Thank you very much for speaking pure truth on this issue which is so ignored and excused (34:12) Casey - Should we dismiss everything in the Gnostic Gospels? (43:46)

It is common for us to treat venial sin as not serious. Yet every sin imperils our salvation. When we choose sinful acts, we abandon our end. This is why we must be vigilant to be careful in every act we do. There are no "small" sins if we are serious about our salvation. Sadly, there is a temptation to overlook these sins as irrelevant without remembering that every transgression offends Our Lord.

Today, a re-release of an interview we did back in late 2019 with Fr. Patrick Summers, the District Superior of Asia.  We discussed the apostolate in Asia and the work the Society is doing to bring not just Tradition, but Catholicism as a whole, as well as food, medicine, education, and some of the most basic human necessities to more remote areas.  You'll hear how the District of Asia is not only vast, but filled with challenges that most of us in the Americas or Europe wouldn't begin to comprehend.

The Church's doctrine of the Immaculate Conception of our Lady is a pinnacle of the liturgical year. By God's grace she was preserved from the stain of original sin. Her preservation from original sin is a sign of how God set her apart from all of humanity. She had a singular role in salvation history that was foreordained by God to be the vessel that housed Our Savior, Jesus Christ.

We know of the fall of man and the downfall of the human race. When we reflect on evolution, we might think that we begin at a low level and then developed into better people. But we did not. The tragedy of humanity is our God given capacity to achieve goodness, but without Christ there is no way to achieve it.

#catholic #sspx #ourladyThe Immaculate Conception of Our Lady was a unique privilege given to her alone by God. Of all of the people born into this world after the sin of Adam and Eve, only one was prevented from contracting Original Sin by the intervention of God.This is implied by Pope Pius IX when he defined the dogma in 1854: “We declare, pronounce, and define that the doctrine which holds that the most Blessed Virgin Mary, in the first instance of her conception, by a singular grace and privilege granted by Almighty God, in view of the merits of Jesus Christ, the Savior of the human race, was preserved free from all stain of original sin, is a doctrine revealed by God” (Ineffabilis Deus)At the beginning of the same document, the Pope says, “Above all creatures did God so love her that truly in her was the Father well pleased with singular delight. Therefore, far above all the angels and all the saints so wondrously did God endow her with the abundance of all heavenly gifts poured from the treasury of his divinity”.Our Lady saw fit to make it clear that the Immaculate Conception is her unique privilege in an extraordinary way just four years later, in her apparitions to St. Bernadette in 1858.St. Bernadette was given the mission by the parish priest to ask the lady who was appearing to her to say what her name was. It was uncertain that Our Lady was appearing.The Lady asked St. Bernadette to come for fifteen days in a row. St. Bernadette kept asking her name but the Lady never gave it, and the fifteen days ended on March 3.But St. Bernadette would sometimes get a strong urge to go to the grotto and this urge came to her on March 25. When Our Lady appeared to her, Bernadette was still quite focused on her mission. She asked the lady three times if she would not mind saying who she was and what was her name. Each time, the lady just smiled. She asked a fourth time and finally the lady became serious, lifted her eyes to heaven, and said those incredible words, “Lourdes: I AM the Immaculate Conception.”Bernadette was a simple girl who could not read and hardly knew her catechism, even though she was fourteen years old. She had no idea whatsoever what was meant by “Immaculate Conception”. Plus, her memory was bad so she just kept repeating the phrase to herself so she could faithfully tell it to the priest.If Our Lady chose to speak of herself in such an extraordinary way, it was to communicate to us an important fact about her immaculate conception: God gave the privilege only to her.

Our Lady's sanctity is highlighted in the feast of the Immaculate Conception. This feast underlines the fact that Our Lady is full of grace. In our own lives, we are given a choice whether to live by nature alone or to be open to God's grace. To accomplish this, we should strive to prepare ourselves for every sacred act we wish to perform or that God will ask of us based on our station in life. We must be ready for it if we wish to receive our Lord's grace.

Today on Questions with Father, we explore one of the most delicate and often misunderstood topics in Catholic theology: the necessity of Baptism and the mystery of Limbo. Fr. Ian Andrew Palko joins us to explain what the Church teaches about the fate of unbaptized infants, the difference between Baptism of desire and sacramental Baptism, and when Baptism must be administered conditionally. What happens to miscarried or stillborn children? Can we hope for their salvation? And what limits does the Church set on that hope? This episode offers clarity, charity, and a deeper appreciation for God's mercy and the urgency of Baptism.

At the end of time, Our Lord will come as a just judge, dispensing publicly and privately the punishment or rewards to each as is due. How we respond to this Second Coming of Christ is reflected in how we respond now to his first coming in the Incarnation. It is at this time that we are called to submit to Our Lord Jesus Christ. For if we do not submit to him now, during this season of Advent, surely we will not submit when He comes again in glory.

We must orient ourselves properly at the opening of Advent. It is a time of preparation for the coming of Christ in our souls and so we must take special care of our spiritual lives. The spiritual life does not happen by accident. This is why we must recall that this period preparation is needful for it disposes us toward the special graces He offers us.

Vigilance, that is, being mindful always of Our Lord can give us a certain special blessings and happiness. When the end times come, it will be too late to become mindful and virtuous. This is why St. Paul is adamant that we must turn our minds to the Lord immediately, never missing an opportunity to grow nearer to Him.

#advent #catholic #sspxAdvent is a holy season of waiting. We learn how to wait for God.Waiting well is an important spiritual skill, because God often moves slowly. When we look at the history of the world and of the human race, we see that God is never in a hurry.God is outside of time. All of time is like a single moment for Him. He sees all of human history from the highest perspective.When we interact with God, we have to be willing for Him to act slowly. We have to be willing to wait. “Show, O Lord, thy ways to me. Teach me thy paths”, we say in today's Introit. His ways are slow.Abraham: God first appears to him when he is 75 years old, and promises that he will make a great nation of him. But his wife is not able to have any children. After 25 years, God appears to Abraham, when he is 100 years old, and promises that he will have a child by Sara, who is 90 years old. She has Isaac and the whole race of the Chosen People comes from him.Moses: the Israelites are being oppressed by the Pharaoh. He is telling the midwives to put their male children to death. Moses is saved from the water and raised by Pharaoh's daughter in the Egyptian court. When he is 40 years old, he flees to the desert. Only after 40 years more does God appear to Moses and ask him to go back to Egypt to deliver the Israelite people. They had been in slavery for 80 years at that point.Coming of Our Lord: God waits a number of centuries after Adam. When Our Lord comes onto this earth, He is not rushed. Rather, He spends 30 years living a hidden and unknown life. Only then does He come out into the public.Bottom line: God often waits a long time before acting. (same will be true of end of world!)We find this characteristic of our God difficult because we are naturally impatient as human beings. We are willful and we want control. We want things to happen when we want them to happen. We find it humbling to be forced to wait.

On the last Sunday before Advent, Holy Mother Church asks us to reflect on the last things. It is a moment when we are compelled to reflect on Christ not coming only as the redeemer or mediator, but as the Last Judge. Focusing upon this reality is not done out of morbidity or negativity, but rather to remember always that we must account to our Creator how we have lived.

The final judgment of our souls, which is referred to as the General Judgment, is one we do not always place before our minds. Yet it is crucial for us to prepare for it. Confession is indispensable, and for many of us a General Confession that is mindfully given, examining the course of our lives, is of the upmost importance. Once we make it, once we have found the strength, to be truly open about our sins, it is incumbent that we persevere in the grace of God.

#endtimes #catholic #ourladyToday is the last Sunday of the liturgical year and it represents the end of time. That is why the Church gives us a Gospel passage of Our Lord speaking about the Last Judgment.Whenever Our Lord speaks of the Last Judgment, He wants to give us certain means by which we may identify it, while at the same time He does not want to tell us when it will happen. Rather, He wants us to always watch and be ready for His coming.Today, I would like to speak about some other general information about the Last Judgment and the End Times. We do not have this information from the Gospels but from a saint.This information comes from St. Louis de Montfort and it concerns the role of Our Lady in the End Times.We have to understand St. Louis' perspective on the Providence of God. It is that God the Trinity desired to make use of Our Lady in every aspect of the work of the Redemption and salvation of mankind.This was a free choice on the part of God because of the fact that He is almighty and does not need anyone. It is not that He needs to make use of Our Lady; it is that He wills to do so out of His goodness.Think of a situation in the home where the father is fixing a door. He is the most capable member of the family to do it and he does not need anyone's help. But he chooses to ask his daughter to help him, for her sake. He wants to spend time with her, he wants her to learn, and he wants her to be a part of the upkeep of the house.Something similar goes on with our salvation. It's like the door into Heaven was broken and could not be used any more. The heavenly Father is going to fix it. He does not need anyone to help Him to do so. But He chooses to ask one of the members of the human race, the ones who broke the door, to help Him in fixing the door.He asks Our Lady for her help and she consents. By her consent, one of the members of the human race that is being redeemed and saved participates in the work to save us.We all know what this meant for Our Lady during her lifetime. She consented to become the Mother of Our Lord. She took care of Him during His hidden life. She requested Him to perform His first miracle. She accompanied Him during His public life and was with Him at the foot of the Cross.During the first centuries of the Church, Marian devotion was present but was not very strong. As the centuries go by, Our Lady becomes more and more known. She becomes more honored. Catholics understand better the role that God gave her. They start to make more use of devotions to her, like the Office of Our Lady and the Rosary that she revealed to St. Dominic.Our Lady herself begins to reveal herself more through apparitions: her apparitions to St. Dominic, St. Simon Stock, the founders of the Servite Order—all these in the Middle Ages.Then, the more modern apparitions to St. Bernadette in Lourdes, to St. Catherine Laboure in Paris, and to the three children of Fatima.St. Louis de Montfort notices these two things and he applies them to the end times: a) God wants to make use of Our Lady in the whole of the work of our Redemption and salvation; b) God wants Our Lady to become more and more known over time.From the realization of this plan of divine Providence, he draws a conclusion: “It was through Mary that the salvation of the world was begun, and it is through Mary that it must be consummated… In the second coming of Jesus Christ, Mary has to be made known and revealed by the Holy Ghost in order that, through her, Jesus Christ may be known, loved and served… God wishes to reveal and make known Mary, the masterpiece of His hands, in these latter times” (True Devotion, par. 49-50).

In February 1917, Our Lady asked three children in Fatima to make reparation to her Immaculate Heart. Of those sins she requested reparation for was in response to those who fostered in the hearts of children indifference or contempt for our Blessed Mother. Distressingly, in our own time, we witness the Church fostering that very indifference, indeed blasphemy, toward Our Lady out of a distorted belief in "clarifying" the proper titles we should ascribe to her. That is why it is imperative that we daily renew our devotion to the Blessed Virgin, seeking always on behalf of ourselves and the entire Church forgiveness for this great offense.

Today in the final installment of The Catholic Mass Series, the U.S. District Superior for the Society of Saint Pius X, Fr. John Fullerton, joins the Director of Communications, James Vogel, to reflect on the importance of the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass and its central place in the life of both the SSPX and the Catholic Church as a whole. They discuss the interrelationship between The Catholic Mass Series and the prior series on the Crisis in the Church, including how the traditional Mass is integral to overcoming the crisis. Father also speaks to some of the practical challenges in making the traditional Mass available to all who seek it while offering advice to those who may be new to the ancient form of the Roman Rite.

November 21st, 2025 - We welcome back Dr. Anthony Stine with interesting news out of the Carolinas. Then we're joined again by Robert Nugent to discuss Ireland's new Cathedral and Mater Populi Fidelis. TheStationOfTheCross.com/ACT  

When Our Lord performs a miracle, it is not by accident. It is intentional. This is particularly seen in the resurrections Christ performs. He is ridiculed because those present believe there is no hope, no chance for Him to accomplish the miracle that has been asked of Him. Yet we see that the faith of those depending on Him is met with Our Lord's benevolence. All that God asks is for us to let Him into our homes, into our lives, and He will be there.

Among the hardest questions of the Faith, is why our Lord has not prevented evil, including death? Yet by Lazarus's death and resurrection, God manifests His glory. He demonstrates His power, as master of life and death.

Fr. James O'Reilly and Isa Tristin of the Thomistic Artists Guild⁩ join to discuss the importance of the fine arts, and how Catholics can save what has been our treasure for centuries.Thank you to our Patrons / Channel Members:Kate ElminiEldridge YorkshireCarol JBrenda AllorAllan SmithKathryn BurksEmilio PereaJanet WeipertFollow us @gladtradpodcast Video Episodes on Youtube

In the contemporary world, there are many misunderstandings concerning purgatory. Indeed, there are many who no longer believe in it, holding instead that almost all who die go directly to heaven save a few terrible people. However, the reality of purgatory can be found in the Old Testament and has been reaffirmed by the Catholic Church repeatedly. What is purgatory? How are we to understand it? And most importantly, what can we do for the souls who dwell there?

On July 13, 1917, Our Lady appeared for the second time to the three children of Fatima. She promised to work a miracle on October 13, so that everyone would believe. Then, she asked the children to sacrifice themselves for sinners and to pray the following prayer when doing so: “O Jesus, it is for love of you, for the conversion of sinners, and in reparation for the sins committed against the Immaculate Heart of Mary.”These three young children were already familiar with the conception of praying and making sacrifices in order to make up for sin.God had sent an angel to them the year before, to prepare them for the apparitions of Our Lady. This guardian angel of Portugal taught the children about their mission: it was for them to do prayer and penance for the conversion of sinners and in reparation for sin, to stop sin from being committed in the future and to repair for sin already committed in the past.Later, Our Lady came to ask for the practice of the five first Saturdays devotion. This is a devotion of reparation for the offenses committed against Our Lady's Immaculate Heart. There are five first Saturdays because there are five types of blasphemies that are committed against Our Lady.The fourth type is the “blasphemies of those who seek openly to foster in the hearts of children indifference or contempt for this Immaculate Mother.”These facts about the message of Fatima show us that Heaven takes very seriously the offenses committed against the Immaculate Heart of Mary. Our Lady would not come down on earth, speak to the three children, and work incredible miracles for no reason.Another thing that we learn is that the work of reparation is very important. Every sin is a crime against God, an injustice. Every sin deserves a punishment to make up for the injustice.There are many sins being committed around the world all the time. God looks for souls who are willing to pay for the sins of mankind. Our Lord and Our Lady, of course, paid a great price for the sins of the world, enough to wipe them all away.However, God did not want to leave us with nothing to do in the supernatural order. Rather, God asks that we unite with the work of Our Lord and Our Lady to do something to pay for sin ourselves. He asks for the work of “reparation”, making up for sin by prayer and sacrifice.This is what the Sacred Heart asked of St. Margaret Mary and us. This is what the Immaculate Heart asked of the three children of Fatima and us.Doing this work is part of living a Catholic life.The most important sins for us to make reparation for are sins of blasphemy. St. Thomas says that blasphemy is “the disparagement of some surpassing goodness, especially that of God”.What Fr. Pagliarani and Fr. Fullerton are asking us to do is to make reparation for a sort of blasphemy against the Mother of God in the form of the document Mater Populi Fidelis of the Dicastery of the Doctrine of the Faith.This document disparages a surpassing goodness, namely, the roles of Our Lady as Co-Redemptrix and Mediatrix of All Graces.

Today on Questions with Father, we take a closer look at the Vatican's recent document Mater Populi Fidelis, which discourages the use of the Marian titles “Co-Redemptrix” and “Mediatrix of All Graces.” Fr. Paul Robinson and Fr. Ian Andrew Palko join a roundtable discussion to explain what these titles mean, why they matter, and why the Church has long honored Our Lady in this way. Are these just outdated expressions—or is something deeper at stake? We'll explore the theology behind Marian mediation, the history of these devotions, and why the faithful are right to be concerned—and even outraged—by this document.

Indulgences are understood poorly today, and many anti-Catholic polemicists falsely hold them up as licenses to sin the future or that absolution is contingent on paying the right amount of money. However, an indulgence is not the forgiveness of sin; it is rather the expiation of temporal punishment due to sin. The Church's teaching on indulgences is entirely Biblical. Yet it was Martin Luther in the 16th century who, after years of upholding the Catholic position, opted to take his his own private spiritual struggles and elevate them to the level of new doctrines that ultimately rejected indulgences and indeed the teaching that any work can assist in our salvation.
