The screen often becomes an addiction. It is not just the Church that makes this declaration, but the behavioral sciences also confirm this. Screens are an escape from reality in the same way alcohol and drugs pretend to offer. While we may want to frame it as a moral issue, this pitfall is so much more complex because it rewires your brain. And it targets everyone.
We welcome back canon lawyer Fr. Gerald Murray to examine the canonical and ecclesial dimensions of the ongoing tensions between the Society of Saint Pius X and the Vatican. How should this disagreement be understood in light of Church law and authority, and what principles are at stake in evaluating its possible resolution? Why does the recent synodal document addressing the role of women in the Church raise further theological and canonical questions regarding the nature of sacred tradition?

The miracle of the feeding of the 5,000 is recorded by all four evangelists. He did not use it as a moment of self aggrandizement, but rather to prepare the way for the greater miracle of the Holy Eucharist. Our Lord is demonstrating through this miracle that He can not only fulfill us physically by addressing our hunger, but He is the there to fulfill us spiritually through the holy sacrifice of the Mass.

For today's podcast, we proudly present again the conference the Society of Saint Pius X's Superior General, Don Davide Pagliarani, gave at the 2023 Angelus Press Conference for Catholic Tradition. In reflecting on the role Christ and the Church He founded in instructing humanity, Fr. Pagliarani turns toward one of the critical errors of our time, namely the Church abdicating its role in shaping souls. Although it is an undeniable good that the Church's doors are open to people seeking salvation through Our Lord, an authentic willingness to be Catholic can only come about through conversion—a conversion that accepts the fulness of the Faith and all its teachings on both a spiritual and moral level.

A specific type of foolish speech that deters progress in the spiritual life is complaining. The act of complaining makes it almost impossible to cooperate with God's grace, for it locks us into ourselves and away from reality. Thus, it removes us from God. Complaining is not the same as making a negative judgment, for sometimes those judgments are necessary. When bitterness and resentment enter into the frame, this is where we begin to poison our spiritual lives by shifting judgment into complaining.
Mother Miriam joins John-Henry Westen to discuss the Society of Saint Pius X's plan to consecrate new bishops in order to preserve traditional Catholic teaching and the Latin Mass. She argues the decision is not rebellion but a necessary step to ensure continuity as current SSPX bishops age and the society serves thousands of faithful worldwide. The conversation defends Archbishop Marcel Lefebvre, suggesting his warnings about doctrinal drift have been vindicated. It also contrasts scrutiny of traditional Catholics with what they see as Vatican tolerance of doctrinal compromise on issues like China relations, ecumenism, and Marian theology.HELP SUPPORT WORK LIKE THIS: https://give.lifesitenews.com/?utm_source=SOCIAL U.S. residents!

Considering the metaphor of cleaning the house, making a good confession immediately comes to mind. Confession, like cleaning, does not begin randomly; first we must assess where to begin and what efforts are required. In the context of confession, this is undertaken through a thorough examination of conscience. This preliminary step is indispensable because it reveals not only those sins we need to confess but also the sometimes radical steps we must take to keep our souls free of filth going forward.
We must always desire to become saints. At first blush, this directive may fill us with fear and discouragement. Is this not too much to ask? Are we not encouraged to focus on the little things, like being true to our respective stations in life? These little things are indeed good—so long as they arise from a supernatural motive. But without an ultimate desire for sanctity, how supernatural can our motives truly be?

When we read the epistles of St. Paul, we are mainly reading letters written by an Apostle to former pagans. These were people who had grown up in the world of the Roman Empire. It was a world of great military power and of amazing engineering feats, but also one of great decadence.These people were not just used to leading immoral lives; leading such lives was a way of life. In other words, it was considered normal behavior to be immoral. By this, I mean getting drunk, committing fornication, seeking after riches, and so on.Then, this Jewish man named Paul came into their lives, explaining to them that God Himself came down upon this earth and that He taught what we are made for, He redeemed us from our sins, and He showed us how we must live our lives in order to get to Heaven.Many of these pagans converted and, when they did, they completely changed their lives. They stopped living as pagans in the Roman Empire and started living as Catholics.At the same time, they still had to struggle greatly against their old habits, particularly the habit of impurity. It is striking that, in today's epistle and in last Sunday's epistle, the Church wants us to read St. Paul exhorting these former pagans to fight against impurity.We are Catholics living 2,000 years later, we are in the middle of the penitential season of Lent, and the Church wants us to hear these words of the Apostle Paul to help us make that same fight against sins of the flesh that the first Catholics were doing.Today, I would like us to hear some words of these two epistles about impurity, to understand what they mean, and also to understand why it is so important to fight impurity.
Today on Questions with Father, we step into a topic many Catholics hear about but rarely understand: the law of the Church. Why does the Church have laws at all? How are those laws made, interpreted, and applied—and what role do they play in the life of the faithful? Fr. Ian Andrew Palko explains the foundations of Canon Law, the difference between doctrine and discipline, and why the Church—like any visible society—must be governed by clear rules. Along the way, we'll explore key principles from St. Thomas Aquinas, the purpose of penalties and mercy, and why the ultimate goal of every law in the Church remains the same: the salvation of souls.

One of the great errors the Church has faced over the centuries is the temptation to avoid the Cross. The Church faces this same problem today. Some argue that the traditional Mass focuses too much on Christ's sacrifice on the Cross. We find this mentality expressed in the Novus Ordo Missae or New Mass. This liturgy avoids the concept of sacrifice, replacing it with the idea that the Mass is nothing more than a communal meal.

The spiritual life consists of looking only at Jesus and doing everything for Him. This is what the Church calls purity of intention. Yet rather than simply aiming to please God, we often act to please only ourselves. While it is easy to claim we do everything to please God, this sermon discusses four ways to examine if that's truly the case and encourages us to correct any false intentions.
The Church dedicates the month of March to St. Joseph. He is the patron of the Universal Church. Just as the Blessed Virgin is the mother of all Christians, St. Joseph has been entrusted with the care of all, including the Church herself. This makes sense as St. Joseph was entrusted with being the father of Our Lord Jesus Christ. Moreover, he stands as an example for all. He was a man who accepted the will of God completely, even in the face of requests he could not fathom.
#sermon #catholicThere are two times during Lent when the Church tries to give us a boost and encourage us to persevere in our Lenten practices. One time, of course, is Laetare Sunday, which occurs just after the halfway point of Lent. The other time is today, when we are a quarter of the way through Lent.The fact that the Church tries to encourage us today indicates to us that we should already be feeling a bit worn out by our Lenten resolutions. We should be needing a second wind.If we have not yet made any resolutions for Lent, we must be sure to do so today. If we are finding our resolutions easy, perhaps we should add something to them that is more difficult.For those of us who are worn out, the Church gives us encouragement in the same way that Our Lord chose to encourage the Apostles right before His crucifixion. He did it by becoming transfigured before them.The Church shows us that she really wants to reflect carefully on this episode in Our Lord's life by giving us the same Gospel two days in a row, for Ember Saturday and today. She only does this one other time, Ember Saturday in Advent and the Fourth Sunday of Advent.This transfiguration is encouraging for us because it shows the glory that will come at the end of our struggles. If we persevere in the Catholic life, if we continue carrying our Cross and being faithful, one day we will enter heavenly glory.Our garments will be as white as snow because of the radiance of our body. Our body will shine brighter than the sun.Just as when there is a contest, the contestants are shown the prize that will be awarded to the winner before they start the contest. Seeing the prize encourages those who are competing. When they are in the midst of the competition, they think about what they will earn if they win and they continue in their efforts.So, too, for us, a quarter of the way through Lent and a certain percentage of the way through our life. We might be weary of our duty of state and the daily grind. We might be weary fighting against the world, the flesh, and the devil. Then, we remind ourselves: if I persevere, I will win an eternal crown. I will be happy forever. I will receive a glorified body that will never suffer.This vision of Our Lord's glory had a huge impact on St. Peter. He mentions it as definitive proof of Our Lord's divinity in his second epistle, “We were not following fictitious tales when we made known to you the power and coming of Our Lord Jesus Christ, but we had been eyewitnesses of his grandeur. For he received from God the Father honor and glory, when from out the majestic glory a voice came down to him. And this voice we ourselves heard borne from heaven when we were with him on the holy mount” (2 Pet. 1:16-18)This vision of Our Lord's glory really happened. And it is a real proof of the glory we will have.
Cardinals Muller and Sarah demanded that the SSPX back down and replay the tired game from the 1980s.

Today on Questions with Father, we tackle a topic that may sound shocking to modern ears: the Index of Forbidden Books. Did the Catholic Church really ban books? Does the Church reject “freedom of speech”? And what does any of that mean for Catholics today living in an age of unlimited media and instant access to everything? Fr. Ian Andrew Palko walks us through the history of the Index, the natural law principles behind censorship, and why the Church once considered certain books more dangerous than many visible sins.

Temptations are always part of our lives. Everyone will be challenged by them, as Our Lord was. Then there are what we call the near occasions of sin. Some of us may believe that we can resist them despite succumbing to these vices in the past. We must be aware of our inclinations toward these sins while also adamantly avoiding those situations that would allow us to fall into them.

“What are the limits of Church authority?” This question opens a discussion on the role and boundaries of ecclesiastical power, while also addressing related topics such as the authority of the Bible versus Church tradition and the implications of using AI in homilies. Other questions touch on the origins of purgatory and the complexities of religious freedom in a diverse society. Join the Catholic Answers Live Club Newsletter Invite our apologists to speak at your parish! Visit Catholicanswersspeakers.com Questions Covered: 04:59 – What would be a good response to a Protestant asking why the Bible isn't the final authority? 12:27 – Pope Leo said priests should not use AI to prepare homilies. Would the pope have authority to limit or govern the Church's use of AI in the future? 19:17 – A Protestant might say that when the early church first started calling itself Catholic, that was really a “small c” kind of Catholic. It wasn't really the Church united under a bishop of Rome. How do we respond to that? 23:25 – Where do we get the idea of purgatory? 30:36 – I am autistic. Are we able to use AI to study the scriptures? 36:39 – Why do we believe in religious freedom? It seems like that gives other religions a kind of tactical advantage? Why not just have the government say that everyone should be Christian? 42:01 – A priest told me questioning the authority of the Church is blasphemy. Is that really true? If that's the case then how would you guys be able to have this discussion right now without blaspheming? 47:51 – Can you explain what's going on with the SSPX right now? If the pope is the authority I don't see why these bishops are disobeying him.
Lent is a great time to receive graces, but we cannot receive them in vain or let them go to waste. The story of the life of José Sánchez del Río, a fourteen year old boy who died a martyr without giving up the Catholic Faith, is a profound example of how we may receive God's grace, indeed God's strength, without relinquishing it even under the most trying circumstances.

Lent has arrived. Whatever trepidation we may have had leading into this season, the reality is the crosses we are called upon to carry are far less a burden than we hold in our imagination. Lent presents an opportunity for us, indeed a freedom, to practice the virtues we must always adhere to. And this penitential season offers us a renewed opportunity to draw closer to God.
Today on Questions with Father, we look upward—quite literally. What does the Catholic Church say about space travel? Is exploring the cosmos a noble pursuit, or does it risk becoming a modern Tower of Babel? We reflect on Pope Pius XII's encouragement of scientific exploration, the real medical and scientific benefits gained from space missions, and the moral principles that help us judge the risks involved. We also examine the modern push toward space tourism, lunar colonization, and even reshaping human identity through technology. Where does legitimate discovery end and hubris begin? This episode offers a Catholic framework for thinking about humanity's future beyond Earth.

“Can non-Catholics receive ashes?” This question opens a discussion on the significance of rituals in the Catholic faith. Other topics include the differences between Catholic Mass and Protestant services, the removal of certain feast days from the calendar, and the meaning behind the priest adding a drop of water to the wine.

In this episode, we visit St. Isidore's in Watkins, Colorado, just east of Denver where a rural plot of farmland became a beautiful Romanesque church. Fr. Paul Robinson walks us through the rich history of the priory, from its origins in a strip mall chapel to the donation of 18 acres and the building of one of the Society's most beautiful churches. Now, that same community is answering a new call: to restore the church's aging structure, to pave the lot after more than two decades of use, and to build a proper school so their children no longer have to study in the basement. With a multi-year capital campaign underway and incredible momentum already, the prospects are bright for St. Isidore's. Now, let's join Father Robinson for this episode of Sacred Restorations here on the SSPX Podcast.
