Homily from the The Epiphany of the Lord Indifference can turn into hostility. Christ has come close. And yet, we all still have a choice: will we remain indifferent to His presence or will we seek Him out? If we choose indifference, we will not remain indifferent. When it comes to God, we either give Him our hearts or we remove Him from our lives. Mass Readings from January 4, 2026:Isaiah 60:1-6Psalm 72:1-2, 7-8, 10-11, 12-13Ephesians 3:2-3a, 5-6 Matthew 2:1-12

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!A neighborhood teen walks into a midnight Latin Mass and steps straight into a world of chant, candlelight, and awe. That single moment sets the tone for a wide-ranging conversation about faith that's lived, not branded—how ordinary Catholic family life can quietly evangelize a restless culture craving stability, fatherhood, and hope.We trade UK and US vantage points and compare media narratives with street-level reality. Are things truly burning, or are we binging on spectacle? We tackle the perennial “war on Christmas,” the corporate habit of sanitizing holy days, and the rise of a substitute liturgical calendar that tries to replace the Incarnation with new rituals and new saints. The throughline is clear: without a supernatural core, culture-building becomes cosplay. Tradition isn't window dressing; it's the scaffolding that carries meaning from one generation to the next.We don't stop at headlines. Mark shares the searing loss of his daughter, the decade of ache that followed, and the surprising graces that kept him moving—community, providence, and a daughter named Mary who arrived like a gift from heaven. Katherine speaks with candor about costly choices, how personal relief often shifts pain onto children, and why love sometimes means carrying the cross instead of outsourcing it. Along the way, we reflect on fatherhood statistics, Protestant critiques of Christmas, and the difference between wielding Christianity as a tool and receiving it as life.If you've ever wondered whether small fidelities matter—family meals, icons on the wall, prayer before bed, Sunday Mass—this conversation says yes. Light still enters the darkness. Grace still heals what pride breaks.

The great filmmaker Guillermo Del Toro has a new adaptation of Frankenstein. He saw the 1931 film when he was 7. “I realized I understood my faith better through Frankenstein than through Sunday Mass,” he tells Terry Gross. “And I decided at age seven that the creature of Frankenstein was gonna be my personal avatar and my personal messiah.” His other films include Pan's Labyrinth and The Shape of Water. Also, we hear from Cameron Crowe, who wrote and directed Jerry Maguire, Say Anything and the semi-autobiographical film Almost Famous, about writing for Rolling Stone starting at age 15. His new memoir is about being a naive teen, exposed to the excesses of rock musicians.Learn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy
