Today in the Catholic Mass Series, we explore how the spirit of the liturgy can—and should—extend beyond the walls of the church. Fr. Burfitt joins us to discuss the essential role of para-liturgical devotions: the Rosary, the Little Office, family prayer, and spiritual reading. How can parents train children to participate at Mass? What about single Catholics seeking a deeper connection? We'll also look at the role of meditation, the dangers of emotionalism, and practical ways to “bring the Mass home.” Whether in processions, devotions, or quiet imitation of the saints, true participation continues long after the final blessing.

Applying the supernatural truths of the Catholic Faith to our everyday lives is a continual struggle. It is altogether too easy to compartmentalize our Catholicism, living as if it is only real or meaningful on Sundays during Mass or when we set aside time for prayer. Yet every day we see all around us the tragic reality of sin, which should call us to remember that what we individually and as a society need more than anything is Christ Jesus Our Lord.
Superficiality is a perennial problem that we must struggle with. Even the Apostles had to confront it. We want to have a casual life that makes no demands upon us. Yet we know we are called to something deeper, a more demanding life. We are called to live for God and above all it is our highest calling, yet we are challenged by a world that tempts us to disregard Our Lord.
Recently Catholics celebrated the feast day of the pillars of the Church, Ss. Peter and Paul. It is through the Catholic Church and the Catholic Church alone that mankind finds salvation. Through St. Peter the Church continues onward to this day under his successor who is tasked with governing her. And in unity with St. Paul, the Church fulfills the great commission to preach God across the world.
Today, we have one of the vocation stories in the Gospels. These are some of the most beautiful stories we read about in the Gospels, and we find them in all four Gospels.They all consist in three things: a meeting, an invitation, and a following.These stories are beautiful and powerful for us because they are a representation of our own life.Of course, they are particularly a representation of the life of a priest, a monk or a nun, those people who have given their lives for the service of Our Lord Jesus Christ.But they are also a representation of the lives of the Catholic faithful. All of the faithful are called by Our Lord to be holy, to follow Him, to love Him and serve Him in their lives.The vocation story in today's Gospel helps us understand what we need to do to answer the call of Our Lord. It is interesting that Our Lord was not content with preaching from the boats of these fishermen whom He was going to turn into fishers of men.He could have just stopped preaching and said, “Come, follow Me”. But, instead, He wanted to work a miracle before issuing the call. Why did He do this?Because great reverence is needed to follow the call of Our Lord. It is not enough that we see Him as a great preacher; we have to see Him as God.Our Lord works this miracle of a great catch of fish, so great that there are more fish than can be contained in one boat. Both boats were even sinking when they were filled with the fish. When St. Peter sees this, he has an immediate realization: this man is holy. I don't think St. Peter knew yet that Our Lord was God. But he knew that He was holy: only a holy man could work such a miracle.When St. Peter sees the miracle, a great reverence for Our Lord awakens in his heart. He casts himself on his knees, in an attitude of respect, submission, and petition. He realizes how sinful he is in comparison to Our Lord and tells Our Lord that he is not worthy to be in His presence.But, in fact, the truth is the contrary: the reverence of St. Peter for Our Lord is what is going to enable him to answer the call of Our Lord and fulfill his great vocation of being the first Pope.The same is true with answering the call to holiness. Our Lord calls all of us to a greater union with Him. It is reverence that will enable us to answer that call. Reverence will make us want to pray, will make us fervent in our prayer, will make us fear sin and keep a close watch over ourselves.Reverence is often what leads Catholics to traditional Catholicism. They start to realize the respect that is owed to God, that that respect is not given in the New Mass, and that the TLM treats God with the respect that He deserves.

Today we learn about the traditional hand Missal—what it is, how to use it, and why it is an essential tool for anyone attending the Latin Mass. Whether you are new to Tradition, returning to the Church, or helping your children follow along, the Missal helps you enter more deeply into the mystery of the Holy Sacrifice. We explain the difference between the Ordinary and Propers of the Mass, suggest how to place ribbons, and how to find the current liturgical day. We also walk through the structure of a Low Mass, discuss variations, and offer tips for beginners learning to pray with the Missal.

We know that St. Peter is the rock upon which Christ established His Church. He is one of the greatest saints, and we owe him our veneration. Yet we should also reflect on St. Peter's conversion, where he recognizes Our Lord along with his own sinfulness. Despite St. Peter's imperfections, Christ beckons him to follow. And so we see, throughout the Gospels, St. Peter not only following, but chasing after, Our Lord. We are called upon to do the same: recognize our sinfulness and never give up our pursuit of sanctification in Christ.
Following the series of post-Paschal feasts that are intended to be consoling, Holy Mother Church steps forth to remind us that salvation is not automatic. This warning is intended to keep us vigilant even outside of the penitential season of Lent. Moreover, the Church desires us to know that the Catholic Faith is not just about consolations and that we must not make excuses for putting off the work of our salvation when we do not receive them.
Fr. Daniel Alloy, FSSP has served as Parochial Vicar at Regina Caeli Parish in Houston, Texas since July of 2022. He was ordained in June of 2020. In Today's Show: I was wondering if members of other apostolic churches like Eastern Orthodox, Oriental Orthodox, etc. are allowed to receive Holy Communion in the Catholic Church. If so, what are the conditions that must be followed? Why do we use the term “Godfather” when there is only God the Father almighty? Do our souls have a gender? At the resurrection, since our bodies and souls will be reunified, will there be any need for us to eat? I know that things like witchcraft and sorcery or anything dealing with occult powers is dangerous and wrong, but my teenage son is fascinated by magic, meaning the kind of magic that involves the art of illusion. Is there any danger in this? How are we not cannibals if we eat the body of Our Lord? Regarding the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah, I've heard conflicting "reasons" given for that. Most say homosexuality, but I've seen people on YouTube make arguments for other causes. Which is correct? To join the FSSP these days, do you have to consciously reject the SSPX? In seminary, what's taught on the SSPX? When discerning, why choose FSSP? What happens to the laity if a church is declared schismatic? Houston heat and Tex-Mex cuisine! Is the name Yahweh specifically connected to God the Father or to all of the persons of the Trinity? Does playing board games with your family/children count as leisure and how can we talk to someone who desires too much leisure or recreation? I was at High Mass today for the Feast of the Precious Blood. Can you explain a little about the roles of deacon and subdeacon? Where is St. Joseph buried? Can you talk about what it means for women to wear veils, why the law was changed, and why you think it seems to be coming back?

Prayer is the oxygen of the soul. It is the high point of our lives. Whether vocal or silent, it is our means to connect with God. Through prayer, we ask everything we need to save our souls. Through prayer, particularly the devotion of the Holy Rosary, we are invited to draw closer to God and to reflect on the fact that we know we are in the presence of Our Lord.
Today, we celebrate the feast day of the pillars of the Catholic Church, Sts. Peter and Paul. St. Peter was chosen by Our Lord to be the first Pope. He preached the Gospel to the Jewish people and established the headquarters of the Church in Rome, where he was eventually martyred.St. Peter was buried on the Vatican Hill in Rome and a church was built on the spot. This is the same place where the Vatican Basilica is today. The bones of St. Peter are in the crypt below the Vatican and so the central church of the Catholic Church is literally built on St. Peter.St. Paul, meanwhile, spread the Gospel to the Gentiles, starting communities of Catholics all throughout the Roman Empire. He also ended his life in Rome, where he was likewise martyred.The institution for which these two saints died is the only divine institution on this earth. By this, I mean that it is the only institution specifically founded by God. When Our Lord came on this earth, He founded one institution before leaving this earth, what we call the Catholic Church. His association with this institution is so close that we speak of the Church as the Bride of Christ. God is married to the Church He founded.What this means is that Our Lord chose to make the Catholic Church the one institution on this earth that would communicate the fruits of His Redemption to mankind. Our Lord takes all of the graces that He merited on the Cross and He has them pass through the Catholic Church to souls, especially through the administration of the sacraments by the priests of the Church.It is for this reason that there is no salvation outside the Catholic Church. There is only one Savior, Jesus Christ. He has chosen to found only one divine institution on this earth, the Catholic Church, and He has only given to that Church the power to save souls, the power to communicate to men the graces that flow from the Cross for the salvation of souls.

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.

To follow Christ, St. Paul was called to imitate Our Lord in every facet of his apostolate. And while he may not have known the abundant fruits of his labor in this life, we know and revere the results of his efforts. Moreover, St. Paul reminds us that the task of winning souls for Christ is an arduous one, but also one that will be rewarded in due course through God's grace.
As Catholics, we are called to not only accept the tenets of the Catholic Faith, but to approach all facets of our lives with the mind of the Church. This is imperative when it comes to Holy Communion. As the greatest sacrament that God has offered to us, we must not presume that we are simply entitled to it nor that we can ever “earn” it. Rather, in keeping with mind of the Church, we should always appreciate that it is a great gift bestowed upon us by God out of His infinite love for us.
St. Peter had a great love for Our Lord, though we know from Scripture that he had an intemperate soul until Christ calmed it. His call for mutual charity or, to put it another way, supernatural friendship, is a reminder that we are called to look beyond our neighbors' faults to find the good in them. And at the same time, we hope they will see the same in us.
Today in the Catholic Mass Series, we explore what it means to participate in the liturgy. Does active participation mean singing aloud and following the Missal, or does it mean something deeper? Father unpacks the original meaning of the phrase, “Active Participation,” by tracing its roots to Pope St. Pius X. He also explains how participation has developed—and sometimes been misunderstood—in recent decades. From the beauty of congregational chant to the quiet devotion of the Rosary, how are the faithful meant to engage in the Church's public worship? True participation, we shall see, is interior first—expressed in reverent, unified worship.

Fr. Michael Copenhagen is a Melkite (Eastern Catholic) priest, husband, and father, at St. Nicholas the Wonderworker Melkite Catholic Church in Gates, New York. He holds a Bachelors of Sacred Theology from the Pontifical University of St. Thomas Aquinas in Rome. In Today's Show: If lifting an excommunication makes one not in schism, wouldn't that mean the Eastern Orthodox are no longer in schism? If the SSPX are not schism, does that mean the EO aren't either? If one looks at somebody of the opposite sex and notices their physical appearance or fitness in a non-lustful way, would that be considered sinful? I had a Priest tell me that I was fulfilling my Sunday obligation when I was attending the Orthodox Church for a year, but not with the SSPX. Would you say the same Father? Is it immoral to buy certain stocks in companies that may be involved in war? What happens in a Protestant Baptism? What does the term "ecumenical" mean? Is it true that in the eastern churches, Eucharistic miracles are seen as a bad thing? How do we explain to someone that Mary is sinless and was assumed into heaven with her body?

Our Lord draws closest to us, spiritually and materially, in the Eucharist. How do we respond to this great gift, particularly after receiving Holy Communion? Do we continue to remember that Our Lord is within us, even after Mass, or do we get distracted immediately by worldly concerns? While Our Lord will always desire to be close to us, we must desire to be close to Him as well; we must return His love
On Pentecost, the faithful commemorate the birthday of the Church. Yet it is also a time to reflect on the coming of the Paraclete, the Holy Ghost, and the gifts He bestows upon the faithful. What these gifts are and what they can do for us in our everyday lives is the topic of this sermon.

On the great feast of the Holy Trinity, we recall that while our limited human intellect can conclude a great deal about a single, all-good God, it can tell us nothing about the mystery of the Trinity without the light of revelation. Although the dogma of the Trinity appears, on the surface, to be simple, we must remember to approach it with caution and humility lest we slip into heresy. Even so, it is still possible to speak of the internal life of the Holy Trinity with respect to the knowledge of and love the three Persons of the Trinity have for one another.
When Our Lord was in the middle of preaching His famous Sermon on the Mount, He took some time to instruct the people on how to pray.He said to them, “When you pray, go into your room, and closing your door, pray to your Father in secret: and your Father who sees in secret will reward you. But in praying, do not multiply words, as the Gentiles do; for they think that by saying a great deal they will be heard. So do not be like them, for your Father knows what you need before you ask him. In this manner therefore shall you pray: Our Father who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name.” (Matt. 6:6-9)What is interesting about this passage is that Our Lord speaks of God as our Father four times in a short space. He is not referring to the First Person of the Trinity so much as God in Three Persons.Almighty God is our Father in Heaven. He created us. He takes care of us. He is the source of everything for us. He wants us to join Him in Heaven. He is my Father because He created me. He is our Father because He created all of us.There are so many things that follow from this fact that God is our Father. But today, I want to highlight three of them.
Today in the Catholic Mass Series, we begin a new segment: the liturgical year. The Mass is not offered in isolation—it's framed by the Church's calendar, shaped by seasons of penance, joy, and reflection. In this episode, we explore the structure of the temporal and sanctoral cycles, and how they guide our worship, prayer, and spiritual growth. From Advent to Pentecost, each season draws us deeper into the mysteries of Christ's life. Understanding this cycle is imperative to living in harmony – and obedience with the Church's rhythm, and to receiving the graces intended for each sacred moment.

When Jesus Christ established the Catholic Church, He intended it to be the sole means of receiving the grace of the sacraments and the sanctifying grace that they instill. However, as a result of our free will to choose sin over virtue, we know this grace can be lost at any given moment. Although Protestants may intend to follow Our Lord and be faithful to His precepts, by remaining outside of the Church and depriving themselves of the sacraments, they not only imperil their own souls, but deny themselves of the means of salvation that God provides.

The reality that charity covers a multitude of sins is found throughout Scripture. But in St. Peter's first epistle he brings this truth front and center. It's an expression of mercy and will always compel us to cover our neighbor's sin. And as our Lord covered our sins we are called upon to do the same for those around us.
What makes a healthy life of nature and of grace? As Catholics, we know that grace is all-important. But this grace also works and builds upon a foundation which we call nature. Our Faith teaches us how to have a healthy natural life, and this ordered life can bring us profound peace, joy, and purpose when it is infused with the supernatural life of grace.
Today in the Catholic Mass Series, we explore the different forms of the Traditional Latin Mass. What distinguishes a Low Mass from a Solemn High Mass, or a Missa Cantata from a Pontifical Mass? We unpack each form, including their structure, ministers, music, and historical development. We also look at the unique character of the Requiem Mass and the theological reasons behind its distinctive rituals. Whether public or private, sung or silent, every form of the Mass expresses the same mystery: the sacrifice of Calvary made present. Join us as we rediscover the beauty and meaning behind the immemorial Roman Rite.

When speaking of the Holy Trinity, we often overlook the Paraclete, that is, the Holy Ghost. Yet it is the Holy Ghost that guides the Church, even through tumultuous times. And though Christ has ascended into heaven, He continues to be present with us through the third person of the Trinity.
With the Latin Mass on the rise across the world, what's next? Kennedy Hall talks about the growing influence of the SSPX, which now serves nearly a million faithful but faces a serious challenge with only two active bishops. Hall explains why new consecrations are likely, and why Pope Leo XIV may want to avoid a repeat of the 1988 fallout. They also talk about the deeper roots of the Church's, focusing on how modernist thinking has shaped theology for decades, even among leaders often viewed as conservative.

Want to reach out to us? Want to leave a comment or review? Want to give us a suggestion or berate Anthony? Send us a text by clicking this link!Fresh from his trip to Greece, Anthony shares fascinating observations about Orthodox devotional practices and the stark cultural differences he experienced compared to Rome. This frames a substantive discussion about Bishop Martin's dramatic reversal on Latin Mass restrictions in Charlotte—extending permissions that were initially set to expire. The timing of this decision, coinciding with Cardinal Roche's audience with Pope Leo, suggests significant developments in Rome's approach to traditional liturgy.We dive into the curious phenomenon of liturgical refugees—Catholics seeking authentic worship in various traditions—and the sometimes contradictory criticisms they level at each other. The irony of Eastern Catholic converts criticizing SSPX attendees highlights the complex landscape Catholics navigate in search of reverent worship. This leads to an insightful analysis of Bishop Barron's interview with Tucker Carlson, examining whether intellectual approaches to faith communication can effectively spark religious revival in a secular age.At the heart of our conversation lies a critical observation about the masculine nature of traditional worship and its power to attract young men to the faith—a dynamic often missing in contemporary parish settings where feminization has become predominant. We explore how different spiritual temperaments respond to Eastern and Western approaches, while reflecting on what effective evangelization requires in our modern context.The discussion extends beyond ecclesiastical matters to examine concerning geopolitical developments, particularly Ukraine's targeting of Russia's nuclear capabilities and the implications for global stability. We conclude with reflections on advancing AI technology and its potential threats to privacy, security, and authentic human connection.Join us for this wide-ranging conversation that connects liturgical preferences to deeper questions about Catholic identity, masculine spirituality, and navigating faith in an increasingly unstable world.Sponsored by Recusant Cellars, an unapologetically Catholic and pro-life winery from Washington state.

As the crisis in the Church continues on, there are those traditional Catholics who have succumbed to the temptation of sedevacantism, that is, the belief there has been no valid pope since the death of Pius XII. Sedevcantism presents a twofold danger, both intellectual and spiritual. On the intellectual level, sedevacantism reveals itself to be an imprudent position, even in the face of grave concerns over the direction of the Church. On the spiritual level, it opens the door to despair.
Fr. Anthony Amato is the Pastor of St. Peter's Parish in Clifton Springs, New York. He was ordained as a priest in June of 2017 by Bishop Salvatore Matano of the Diocese of Rochester, New York. In Today's Show: Is the Novus Ordo Mass improper worship? I attend a NO Mass but constantly hear criticisms about it. Is this the sort of division Pope Francis was trying to avoid by restricting TLM? Is Purgatory a level of hell that is not permanent for those who go there? What is the correct rank order to fast and pray for people? Is it a sin to use phrases like "Praise God" when hearing good news? Why are there multiple variations of the mystery of faith? Can you clarify the difference between "charity" and "love" in modern Bible translations? What are Father's thoughts on the future of the SSPX under the new pope? Are annulments invalid unless approved by Rome? What is the context of Canon 915, and why do Catholics eat the body and blood of Christ? What readings are recommended for those in a state of spiritual desolation? What is the difference between rest and laziness? How responsible are we for allowing others to use the Lord's name in vain? How early is too early to leave mass?

In a certain sense, the Ascension is the greatest feast of the Church because it is the supreme glorification of Christ Jesus. This glorification is seen in Our Lord's ascension into heaven after bestowing the Great Commission on His Apostles. Moreover, in sitting at the right hand of the Father, Our Lord--God the Son--demonstrates his triumph over death while preparing a place for those who follow Him faithfully here on earth.
Today we explore the ministers of the Mass and their profound connection to Christ's priesthood. We begin in the Old Testament, with the heads of tribes and the Levites offering sacrifices to God, and see how these acts prefigure the one true priesthood of Our Lord. Then we look at Holy Orders—how it allows priests to act in persona Christi, uniting both priest and victim at the altar. Finally, we examine the structure of this sacrament, the unique dignity of bishops, priests, and deacons, and the controversial history of concelebration. Through it all, we are reminded that the Mass is a sacrifice, and the Church's ministers are essential to our Faith.
