"I suddenly knew that I had invited something bad into my home. It knocked and I would splash holy water at it. It would move and knock again. I said, I am a child of God, and you have got to go! " --------- In this episode of Touched by Heaven, I talk with Ashley, who grew up Catholic but found it all a bit… boring. In her search for something deeper, she stumbled into the New Age. Ashley bought and read all that she could about—crystals, tarot, mediums. What followed was a spiritual darkness—things moving and knocking in the night, a daughter tormented by unseen forces, and chaos in her home. Everyone said she just needed a good cleansing… but something told her otherwise. It was time to go back. With a rosary in hand, a little help finding a miraculous medal from St. Anthony, and one powerful confession, everything changed. But how? Let Ashley tell you. ---------- Bishop Robert Barron - These Items Attrack Demons in Your Home: https://youtu.be/RKRsxAF3b7U?si=CH14lFZomo8gkZQv ---------- Share Your Story If you have a Touched by Heaven moment that you would like to share with Trapper, please leave us a note at https://touchedbyheaven.net/contact Our listeners look forward to hearing about life-changing encounters and miraculous stories every week.

"God put on my heart to go for a walk every day for 100 days. And, to journal what happened along the way. I had no idea what it would lead to!" ---------- Hi, Trapper Jack here. Ever get that weird nudge from God that makes zero sense? Like, “Hey, go do this totally random thing”—with no instructions, no context, and definitely no heavenly user manual? Yeah, Cindy got one of those. God told her to walk. Every day. For 100 days. Talk to strangers. Be encouraging. Journal about it. That's it. Write. Rinse. Repeat. Then came the next divine plot twist—write for 15 minutes a day. Cindy was to look at her journal and add that which the Holy Spirit delivered. She was faithful and disciplined. And suddenly, it became a book called, “GUT, God Uttering Truths.” Turns out, those so-called random sidewalk chats. Not so random. God had a plan. Obedience is more important than understanding. This episode is your reminder that obedience often makes more sense looking back than it does in the moment. God says, “Trust Me,” and Cindy did. One step at a time. ---------- GUT, God Uttering Truths: https://www.amazon.com/Uttering-Truths-Cynthia-Farmwald-Helfrich-ebook/dp/B087ZR33WQ/ref=sr_1_1?crid=20ZZCUHNIJS47&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.1ny_9J831wIIg-DPDoLb7g._jKasa43VmdohJ7vV1qNVMNEegvk0U_nxMwRS0X8VWA&dib_tag=se&keywords=Gut%3A+God%27s+Uttering+of+Truths&qid=1747938602&sprefix=gut+god%27s+uttering+of+truths%2Caps%2C108&sr=8-1 ---------- Share Your Story If you have a Touched by Heaven moment that you would like to share with Trapper, please leave us a note at https://touchedbyheaven.net/contact Our listeners look forward to hearing about life-changing encounters and miraculous stories every week.

Send us a textIn this creative, mission-intent conversation with writer/director Marco Bazzi and writer/producer/actor Mark Vidano, crafters of the independent, film festival-bound TOUCHED the movie, THE SOULFAM PODCAST shifts the conversation on autism, neurodivergence, relationships and family transformations. Sharing the journey of the creation and production of TOUCHED, Marco and Mark share with Diana their intent to tell a story of a rigid, estranged grandfather who suddenly becomes the sole guardian of his teenage granddaughter Angel with special needs. In their writing, development and shooting of TOUCHED, Mark and Marco approach neurodiversity and its acceptance by never overtly sharing Angel's diagnosis. Instead, the story is weaved with vulnerability, shock, tragedy, secrets, transformation and redemption. In TOUCHED, following a tragic accident which leaves Angel parentless, Martin (played by Mark Vidano) becomes the sole guardian. Angel sees the world in a way Martin can't understand. Martin's isolated existence suddenly comes unraveled. But the legal system threatens to separate Martin and his newly reconnected relationship with Angel. He must then confront his past or risk losing the only family he has left. Filmed without studio affiliation nor celebrity backers, TOUCHED is currently hosting an Indiegogo fund - https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/to... -- for contributions. Poised to hit the film festival circuit, Mark and Marco shared the divinely guided production journey in which both above the line and below the line creatives and crew were met with near disaster on multiple ocassions. Yet, production miraculously continued despite fires, a runaway gear truck and unexpected red tape along the way. In this interview, including the TOUCHED trailer, Mark and Marco discuss how the script went from a lovely "Hallmark" tale to en emotionally-evocative, change-of-perspective message that combines fresh talent and solid writing with ingenious camera work to reflect Angel's world and the world she sees. Dynamically produced and eloquently told by Marco and Mark, the elder Martin's and Angel's relationship is intended to allow audiences to feel and become a part of the transformational journey. As Mark shares, the film was inspired by his own childhood in which a young boy dubbed "retarded" became his close friend. Mark shares his vulnerability about self-soothing as a child himself in a world where neurodiversity was not a consideration. The film as Mark and Marco share, holds a mirror to the people who need to see what they don't understand. We celebrate Neurodiversity in all its forms at THE SOULFAM PODCAST. Neurodiversity has become an essential aspect of the podcast's platform an inclusive aspect in a podcast which remains focused on spirituality, consciousness, tarot, intuition, science, entertainment, starseeds and more from from galaxies far beyond. Based on human experience and an intuitive hunch on the connection between elevated frequencies, spirituality, consciousness and neurodiversity, THE SOULFAM PODCAST hopes to continue to expand its understanding and sharing of how brains energies and connections interact for all kinds of minds.

The soundtrack that plays in Trapper's head has been uncomfortable. God seems to be revealing His opinion on a topic Trapper would rather not discuss. ---------- Hi! Trapper Jack here. I've heard a bazillion opinions out there on the papacy of Pope Francis, and what is about to come with Pope Leo. In this episode, we might have the opinion of the only One that matters. It's time to finally crawl out of the belly of the whale—seaweed hairdo and all. Like Jonah, I tried to outrun a message God wanted delivered. I figured if I stayed vague enough, maybe no one would throw me overboard. Spoiler: they did. From lightning strikes and Pachamama to a certain musical that wouldn't leave my head, is it possible that God wants to give you His thoughts on what has ended, and what has begun? The signs are everywhere. Sometimes, the prophet needs a push… or a whale. ---------- Join us on our pilgrimage to Medjugorje. It's nearly sold out so don't delay.

Ever wonder why some Christians burn bright and others barely flicker? It comes down to the fire of the Holy Spirit. Without it, churches grow cold, Christians get stuck, and pastors just go through the motions. This sermon is a wake-up call to stop making excuses and start desperately seeking the Spirit of God, who sets everything ablaze.
Andrew, an atheist, cried out to God, "Help me if you are real. If you are really there, please show me." God answered. ---------- Hi! Trapper Jack here. What if the voice that led you to God… wasn't even sure God existed? Today's guest, Andrew, thought he was an atheist — just like his dad. Then one day, while listening to a Joe Rogan episode, he hears Canadian psychologist, Jordan Peterson. A man not preaching. Not quoting Scripture. Just speaking the truth. A truth so raw, so honest, and so needed — about suffering, about Christ, about living as if God is real — that something inside Andrew cracks open. Peterson isn't a pastor. He doesn't claim to be a believer. But he points to Christ as the highest ideal. He says He's the one to model your life after. And that kind of message — coming from someone outside the Church — somehow hit Andrew right in the soul. Because for the first time, he didn't feel preached at… he felt invited. So, there's Andrew, driving down the road, praying. Not because he believes in God… but because he wants to. “God, if You're real — show me.” That moment became the turning point of his life. This episode is about the unexpected bridges God uses. And sometimes, He builds them with voices that don't even know they're echoing heaven. ---------- Medjugorje trip link: https://www.ctscentral.net/travel-tours/60th-anniversary-pilgrimage-to-medugorje ---------- Share Your Story If you have a Touched by Heaven moment that you would like to share with Trapper, please leave us a note at https://touchedbyheaven.net/contact Our listeners look forward to hearing about life-changing encounters and miraculous stories every week.

Have you ever walked away from the Eucharist—or known someone who has? In today's Rise Up reflection, Fr. Jonathan Meyer dives into a haunting moment in Scripture: John 6:66—a verse where many of Jesus' disciples turn away, unable to accept His teaching on the Real Presence in the Eucharist. The symbolism of 666 is hard to ignore, especially when it reflects the spiritual battle so many face. Fr. Meyer invites us to reflect, repent, and pray for those who have stepped away from the Mass or the belief in the Eucharist. Whether it's you, your children, your friends, or someone you love—this is a call to return to Jesus and His saving gift in the Blessed Sacrament.
Wherever We Sing, He ListensMr T M Krishnadas Eradi from Calicut, Kerala, is one of the legendary members of the Prasanthi Bhajan Group who has had the opportunity to sing for Bhagawan in Prasanthi Nilayam right from the sixties. His sonorous voice reverberates in the Sai Kulwant Hall off and on, even now bringing back the nostalgic flavour of the bhajans of the earlier era. Indeed, he was personally groomed and guided by Bhagawan in all aspects of bhajan singing. In this episode of OMS he recalls one telling episode through which Bhagawan taught all of us how He listens to every bhajan, no matter who sings it or where it is sung.
These first 4 verses are a jumbled mess. It's really one run-on sentence with a bunch of dependent clauses at the beginning and doesn't get to the main subject and verb until what we have as verse three. In other words, John is really excited to write about what he's writing about. So instead of going verse by verse, we'll talk about the main things he's trying to convey. 1) This Jesus thing really happened. They saw it. Heard it. Touched it. It really happened. John is writing in the late first century to 2nd and 3rd generation Jesus people. By the time they learn about Jesus, it's been 50 years since Jesus physically walked on the planet. You can imagine them having questions - did this really happen? Was Jesus real? Are these stories real? John is giving them reassurance as someone who was with Jesus. He understands it's hard to believe - so he's saying, trust me. I was there. Doubt is there - for all of us. Especially 50 generations or so later, if I have my math correct. Lean into doubt, but don't go alone. Lean into questions, but do it in community. 2) We experienced him. I'll do some 'spaining about the grammar here. He's using the perfect tense - that is, talking about something in the past that still continues to have an impact in the present. 3) John wants them to experience, too. John's experience of the joy that Jesus brings is incomplete unless he shares it with community. It's one of the reasons we gather week after week. It's a shared experience of the divine that continues to transform us in the present. Speaker: Aaron Vis Scripture: 1 John 1:1-4 http://bible.com/events/49430871

"From my passenger seat, I literally grab the steering wheel from my husband. I yanked the steering wheel to the right, taking the exit. He yelled, ‘Are you nuts?' I thought I was nuts. But the Voice said, ‘Exit at the McDonald's.' I wasn't hungry, I didn't have to go to the bathroom. But the Holy Spirit wanted me there for a reason I did not yet know." ---------- You are about to meet Claire, who suddenly felt an overwhelming urge to force her husband off the highway toward a McDonald's. No hunger. No bathroom emergency. Just this inner voice that wouldn't let her pass that exit. She didn't even understand it herself. It seemed irrational — even unsafe. But what happened next proved that this was no coincidence. This was the wind of the Holy Spirit in motion. Remember what Jesus told Nicodemus? “The wind blows where it will… you hear its sound, but you do not know where it comes from or where it is going. So it is with everyone born of the Spirit.” That's what we're talking about. The kind of faith that doesn't wait for a five-point plan. The kind of faith that just moves when the Spirit says go. Sometimes, following God looks completely ridiculous from the outside. But from Heaven's perspective, it's right on course. So, buckle up. We're letting the wind drive. ---------- Medjugorje trip link: https://www.ctscentral.net/travel-tours/60th-anniversary-pilgrimage-to-medugorje ---------- Share Your Story If you have a Touched by Heaven moment that you would like to share with Trapper, please leave us a note at https://touchedbyheaven.net/contact Our listeners look forward to hearing about life-changing encounters and miraculous stories every week.

Pentecost Sunday commemorates the day the Holy Spirit descended upon the early church, fulfilling the promises of Jesus and John the Baptist. After Jesus' resurrection and ascension, the disciples gathered in Jerusalem as instructed. On Pentecost, the Holy Spirit filled them with power, symbolized by tongues of fire, enabling them to boldly spread the gospel—marking the birth of the Christian church. This day reminds believers that the same Spirit lives within them, uniting all in Christ, empowering them for service, and continuing God's promise to all who are called.
"I wasn't even sure I believed in God. But when I saw the miracle of the sun with golden raindrops falling from it, and my friend Bill saw the exact same thing. I started to cry; I knew that God really did exist. And, that He loves me." ---------- Hi! Trapper Jack here. I get to put on the referee uniform again this week. These vertical stripes are so slimming! We have puzzle pieces to look at regarding the upcoming conclave in Rome to choose a new pope. Songs have been bubbling up in my head seemingly out of nowhere, but we know where that nowhere is. We have a very important player in the game who appears to be missing. And then there are those mysterious 46 stars and 46 popes from episode 346 involving the Our Lady of Guadalupe image. Plus, throw in Jesus Christ superstar and we have quite an episode here. Because there's even more… In this week's episode, I also talked with Michael, who once walked away from his faith. What brought him back? A lavender Virgin Mary. A vision within the sun. A long-buried sin. It started with a spinning sun. Colors cascading. Golden raindrops dripping from the sky. On top of Apparition Hill in Medjugorje, Michael Campanelli and his friend Bill were witnessing something extraordinary. But that was only the beginning. What Michael saw just days later would break his heart open—and bring him to his knees. What followed was a miraculous journey of grace, healing, and a life transformed. Today, Michael leads pilgrims through Padre Pio Pilgrimages guiding others to the holy places where heaven touches earth—just like it did for him. ---------- Come with us. There's gold in these hills.

"It was Jesus. I was on my knees in front of Jesus. He looked at me with such love, love that I have never ever seen in this world." ---------- Happy Easter! Let's go back many years to a very special Easter weekend. It was episode 104. Melody was about to meet Jesus, a man she had no belief in. For decades, she had worshiped the Earth, in a pagan belief known as Wicca. Melody believed there was no God, no heaven or hell. Then, came her dream. In the dream, she saw a man with long hair, being led by a jeering crowd. She didn't know who he was, but something about his eyes—so full of love and understanding—pulled her in. When he looked at her, it felt like he saw everything… and still loved her. He spoke to her of his concern for her soul. That dream led her to a church on Easter Sunday, that she'd never visited before, and to a divine appointment she could never have planned, another unmistakable Touched by Heaven moment.

Joined by Lime Light Vibes performer and artist Bajsh, the two talk fake-deep artistry, easing people into faith, SoundCloud gems, and why open mics shouldn't be karaoke nights. They get into Kendrick vs. Drake, Kanye's genius, and why AI might kill the soul of music. Bajsh opens up about growing through trauma, learning to love himself, and why “Come Get Me” almost didn't drop.In the Patreon, they talk exes, villain arcs, spiritual baggage, and the vision behind Brave Angel. Real convo, real bars, and way too many mac and cheese metaphors.
Are you overwhelmed by your child's clinginess, emotional meltdowns, tantrums, or constant need for attention?Do you want to be a calm, connected parent—but feel touched out, maxed out, and unsure how to respond without creating 'bad habits' in your children?In this episode, we respond to a heartfelt question from a listener who asked: “How do I support my children when they're being emotionally needy—but I'm running on empty myself? My husband says I'm forming bad habits in my kids and wearing myself out.”She's a devoted mom trying to show up with love—but when her child is falling apart, crying, throwing tantrums, or needing constant reassurance, she feels like she's emotionally drowning. Her natural response is to set more boundaries for her children to protect herself from burnout -- but is the best approach when YOU are the person who's the adult?If you've ever felt stuck between your own limits and your child's emotional needs, this conversation is for you.We explore how attachment parenting principles can help you stay emotionally grounded while building secure bonds—especially during challenging moments and phases. You'll learn how your child's clingy or intense behavior is actually a normal response to unmet emotional needs, and how to use those moments to deepen trust and connection instead of breaking your parent/child bond.We share practical ways to support your child's emotional growth without sacrificing your own well-being. From real-life parenting tools to nervous system regulation strategies, this episode will help you build a peaceful, connected home—even when parenting feels messy.Whether you're raising toddlers, preschoolers, or school-aged kids, these attachment parenting insights will empower you to create a strong foundation of safety, love, better behavior, and mental and emotional health now and into adulthood.✅ Your child's desire for closeness is a sign of healthy attachment—not weakness or 'bad habits'.✅ Emotional meltdowns and tantrums are signs of unmet attachment needs, not power struggles.✅ When you regulate yourself, you help your child develop emotionally through co-regulation. Children can't self-regulate.✅ Attachment parenting leads to long-term confidence, independence, and resilience.✅ You can meet your child's needs and protect your peace.Chapters00:00 The Key to Great Parenting10:02 The Importance of Truth in Parenting10:25 Navigating Parenting Challenges18:08 Understanding Attachment and Its Impact24:17 Building Strong Attachments for Better Outcomes31:20 Increasing Capacity as Parents36:45 The Complexity of Parenting39:31 Understanding Children's Emotional Needs42:48 The Importance of Self-Care for Parents45:39 Nutrition's Role in Parenting Effectiveness49:48 Prioritizing Childhood Development54:35 The Balance of Family Commitments59:15 Building Lasting Relationships with Children01:02:07 Strategies for Rebuilding Attachment01:06:48 Managing Parental Stress and Emotions
n the kingdom of Wallachia (in modern-day Romania) the Goths undertook a brutal persecution of Christians. A Gothic prince came to the village of Buzau and asked the villagers if any Christians lived there. They swore to him that there were none. At this, Sabbas came before the Prince and said 'Let no one swear an oath on my behalf. I am a Christian.' Touched by his courage, the prince let Sabbas go, saying 'This one can do neither harm nor good.' The following year a priest named Sansal came to the village and celebrated Pascha with Sabbas (who was truly the only Christian there). When the pagans heard of this, they attacked Sabbas' house and seized both men. They dragged Sabbas naked through thorns, then tied both him and Sansal to trees and tried to make them eat meat offered to idols. Neither man would touch the sacrifices. The prince then sentenced Sabbas to death and gave him over to the soldiers. Sabbas walked to the place of execution joyfully, singing and praising God. Seeing his goodness, the soldiers tried to free him on the way, but Sabbas refused, telling them that it was their duty to carry out the prince's command. The soldiers took him to a river, tied a rock to his neck and cast him into the waters, where he gave back his soul to God. Some Christians later recovered his body and gave it honorable burial. The saint was 31 years old at the time of his martyrdom. In the reign of the Emperor Valens, the Greek commander Ionnios Soranos found the Saint's body during a war against the Goths, and took it to Cappadocia.
In today's episode, I dive into the rich tapestry of Aaron Johnson's life journey from the "sexy town" of Phelan, California to his transformative work addressing touch deprivation among Black men. Aaron's storytelling is magnetic as he recounts discovering the sacredness of his desert homeland through acapella singing with his siblings, navigating dyslexia and special education, and finding his way to CalArts despite the odds. What strikes me most is Aaron's profound concept of "magic" – that ineffable quality statistics can't measure but that fuels human potential beyond paper predictions. His candid revelation about the creation of his Chronically Under-Touched Project hits like lightning; when he asked a young Black mentee "When was the last time you received three minutes of thoughtful platonic touch?" and discovered it had been fifteen years, Aaron unearthed an urgent and overlooked epidemic. His work now challenges the violent touch narratives dominating Black male experience while offering healing alternatives, reminding us that sometimes transformative work begins with the simplest question nobody thought to ask.Bio: Aaron Johnson is a public speaker, facilitator, and touch activist, fostering environments where Black-bodied individuals can express their full selves. As a founder of Holistic Resistance, Grief to Action and The Chronically UnderTouched Project, Aaron takes the time to hold the stories of Black people around homophobia, transphobia, and internalized racism. Aaron's journey began, as it does for many Black men, with lack of loving and platonic touch. Now, Aaron assists other Black men in developing holistic touch practices to move from a Chronically UnderTouched state into touch balance. Aaron aims to create spaces for Black people and People of the Global Majority (PGM/BIPOC) to connect with each other and the earth. He and his team are establishing retreats and workshops on Black-owned land in the Mojave Desert and beyond to promote emotional and physical tenderness, platonic connection, and singing, which enhances the healing process for those overlooked by mainstream society.

In Touched (S7 E20 of Buffy the Vampire Slayer), Faith takes over as the leader, Spike reaches out to Buffy, and disaster looms. Along with the recap of Touched, this podcast episode focuses on: (1) the mayor and Giles as foils for one another; (2) the way The First evolves as a season antagonist; (3) Faith's emotions, doubts, and growth shown through action and dialogue; (4) recurring episode themes; and (5) why some unanswered questions drive a story and others distract from it.

Pastor Anthony King sits down with Dr. Ed Welch to talk about the healing touch of Jesus and how it speaks to our deepest shame. Together, they explore how Christ meets us in our unworthiness—not with rejection, but with compassion and cleansing. If you've ever felt too broken to be loved, this conversation will remind you that Jesus touches what others avoid.
I just kept praying, ' God, let my husband come home. Let my husband come home.' I have heard God's voice three times. This would be the first. ---------- Katrina—yes, spelled like the hurricane, and she'll tell you the personality matches—is a fiery force of faith navigating through one of life's messiest middle chapters. Unlike the usual Touched by Heaven story arc, this one doesn't wrap up with a pretty bow. At least, not yet. Katrina has heard ‘The Voice'—a man's voice, unmistakably divine—more than once in her life. And what He said once came true. But now? That same Voice is saying, “Trust me,” as her whirlwind marriage collapses in mere weeks. Is she a fool for trusting Him? Or is she ahead of the rest of us—because even without the arrival of the hoped for happy ending, she's found something deeper: daily conversations with God, trust in His Providence, and a peace that passes understanding. ---------- Come with us to Medjugorje: https://www.ctscentral.net/travel-tours/60th-anniversary-pilgrimage-to-medugorje ---------- Share Your Story If you have a Touched by Heaven moment that you would like to share with Trapper, please leave us a note at https://touchedbyheaven.net/contact Our listeners look forward to hearing about life-changing encounters and miraculous stories every week.

In today's episode we are talking about the act and art of touch. Touch is one of our primary attachment needs and we need it from cradle to grave. Touch is often a hot button issue between couples. Distance and disconnection in the relationship can create anxiety and pressure around touch. What stops touch from happening between you and your partner? Ask yourself is there a cycle that comes alive when one of us is seeking touch and what can we learn from it? Laurie and George share more about how vulnerable it can be to receive touch and that a key to safety in this area is non-sexual touch. Increasing affection that isn't centered around sex but strengthening the attachment need in the relationship. It's important to reduce the pressure here, work on relational safety and get curious with each other. You'll take away ideas on how to promote non-sexual touch, exercises that stimulate pleasure and little ways to enjoy more touch together. Special announcement for all couples therapists who want more EFT and Sex training. Join George on April 16th for his masterclass through Nicabm. Don't worry if you can't make it live.

"My whole body is shaking. I'm full-blown sobbing. I run out of the church, leaving my mom, son, and girlfriend flipping out because they know that I just saw something in church." ---------- Hi! Trapper Jack here. While recording episode 357, I had no idea how deeply it would affect listeners. One of them, my friend, Doug George, had to stop listening—it hit too close to home. Like Tom, Doug saw his deceased father… in church, bathed in light. In that moment, he felt it all—closure, forgiveness, love. Doug shares his journey of growing up with a unpredictable dad, caring for him during his final months with dementia, and finally experiencing healing in that holy encounter. Both Doug and Tom found peace in church—a reminder that healing flows from the heart of the Church, and through Jesus, we come to know not only our Heavenly Father… but our earthly ones too. ---------- Come with us to Medjugorje: https://www.ctscentral.net/travel-tours/60th-anniversary-pilgrimage-to-medugorje ---------- Share Your Story If you have a Touched by Heaven moment that you would like to share with Trapper, please leave us a note at https://touchedbyheaven.net/contact Our listeners look forward to hearing about life-changing encounters and miraculous stories every week.

"Medjugorje, to me, is the holiest place on earth. I've been to Lourdes, which was beautiful, but I cannot wait to go back with you, Trapper and Elizabeth, to Medjugorje." ---------- If you're searching for a place to begin again in your spiritual life—a place of renewal, restoration, and undeniable fruit—look to Medjugorje. Elizabeth and I will be leading a pilgrimage to Medjugorje, October 6th through the 13th. Here is a link to get the details: https://www.cognitoforms.com/CorporateTravelService2/CorporateTravel60thAnniversaryPilgrimageToMedjugorje The Church has acknowledged the profound impact of this place: families reconciled, countless conversions through confession, miraculous healings, and hundreds, if not thousands, of men answering the call to the priesthood. Millions of pilgrims have left transformed, drawn closer to Christ through Eucharistic adoration. At a time when Christianity is shrinking, especially among the young who leave faith behind for nothing, Medjugorje stands as a model for the Church. It is a reminder of what works, what revives faith, and what calls hearts back to God. Our Lady, the Queen of Peace, has given us five stones: daily Scripture reading, praying the Rosary, monthly confession, fasting, and receiving the Eucharist at Mass. These are the weapons against the enemy, the tools for our renewal. If only we had a role model in the world to follow—and yet, here it is. Do we see it? Do we embrace it? Begin again. Medjugorje is the place to begin again.

“My vision isn't all that great anymore, but I got in the pool, went underwater, and I could hear the voice saying, ‘go a little left, go forward, a little more left,' I reached out and found it in six seconds. Even I couldn't believe it.” ---------- Hi! Trapper Jack here. A local priest sometimes likes to comically reflect on how we seem to invite people to a lackluster God. ‘Come to church. It's good for you, you know, like broccoli.' The Touched by Heaven podcast reminds us that we have nothing short of a dazzling and loving God who continually makes himself known in our lives. Lisa and Larry, originally heard in episode 43, remind us that God is still sending us his angels. Sometimes, we can even hear them! We also hear prophetic words and see God's deep love for His children. From miraculous guidance to the beauty of a child's innocent faith, these stories remind us that heaven is constantly colliding with earth. Our God is not distant—He is present, speaking, and revealing His power in ways we cannot ignore.
