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.

On this week's episode of the Pennsylvania Woodsman, Mitch is joined by Clint Stout, a lifelong Pennsylvania hunter who grew up immersed in the tradition of bear camp. Clint shares a deep well of experience—from understanding food cycles like chestnut oak, grapes, and hickories, to interpreting how bears shift patterns with weather, pressure, and seasonal changes.

Their conversation dives into terrain reading, the randomness of bear movement, and the surprising intelligence of mature boars that seem to melt into the landscape.The episode also turns toward the culture of Pennsylvania bear hunting—its camaraderie, its generational stories, and how modern hunting dynamics have shifted the feel of camp. Clint and Mitch reflect on how pressures such as expanded seasons, societal pace, and changing traditions have altered the rhythm of bear camp, and why preserving that atmosphere matters. Whether you're a lifelong bear hunter or someone curious about what makes this season so special, this episode captures the rugged spirit, challenges, and heartfelt heritage of Pennsylvania's bear woods.

Christmas is full of lights, lists, and traditions — buthow do we keep our children focused on the real meaning of the season? Today, I'm joined by Pastor Grant Castleberry who serves as pastor at The King's Chapel in Raleigh, NC. He  and his wife GraceAnna are authors, creators, and parents of five — whose mission is to help families reclaim the heart of Christmas. Together they've created a powerful new resource designed to anchor the season in the story of Jesus.In this episode, we talk about how to guide our childrentoward a Christ-centered understanding of Christmas — not just through words, but through intentional family traditions. From daily Scripture rhythms tosimple practices that point little hearts to the manger, we explore practical ways parents can make Jesus the focus of December. The Castleberrys share how their own family traditions were reshaped by their desire to keep Christ at the center — and how every family, regardless of where they're starting, can do the same.We also dive into their new project, “Manger inDanger,” a creative and meaningful alternative to Elf on the Shelf. Packed with Scripture-based devotionals and rooted in the true Christmas story, it offers families a month-long adventure that brings children back to the wonder of Jesus' birth — not the distractions that often crowd Him out.Please Support this Podcast:https://mypillow.com  Promo Code: ROSEhttps://patriotmobile.com/partners/rosewww.americansforprosperity.orghttps://wordmarketingservices.com/Rose's Ministry: www.sheiscalledbyhim.com

What does it mean to live out the truth? This theme carries over as we continue our evaluation of the eighth commandment. We learn the Catechism's teachings on ways we violate truth, degrees of gravity based on circumstances, and the duty of reparation. Fr.

We are what we continually do. This week, Dr. Michael Brown and Teresa Brown look toward the holidays by reflecting on traditions of the past and present.

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?

If you've ever wondered why people are flocking back to tradition — incense, Latin, pilgrimage, ritual, reverence — you're gonna want to hear what a former Hollywood actor discovered across Spain that most Catholics have never seen.What happens when a Hollywood actor spends years chasing truth… and finds it in the last place he expected?In this week's episode of The Catholic Couple Podcast, Bobby sits down with Austin Peck — former soap-opera star turned Catholic storyteller — for a raw, fascinating, and deeply human conversation about his journey from Hollywood sets to the heart of the Church.After a powerful conversion, Austin dove into Scripture, wrestled with Christian identity, and walked a long road through evangelicalism. But the deeper he searched, the more he was drawn toward something ancient, rooted, and shockingly alive: Catholic Tradition.Now, Austin is helping the world rediscover it.He joins us to talk about his newest project with Mass of the Ages: the all-new series Discover Tradition, where he serves as host and co-producer. In Episode 1, Austin travels across Spain during Holy Week, uncovering the breathtaking rituals, devotions, and cultural expressions that point to the depth and beauty of the Catholic faith.

It's been a year of engagements and tying the knot for some of the biggest pop stars in the world, like Charli XCX, Lana Del Ray, Dua Lipa and Taylor Swift. And despite it being one of the oldest and most traditional ways to commit to a partner - research shows young people are more keen on getting wed than the generation before us. We hear how you feel about marriage, and whether it's something you still wanna do.

We begin our dive into the eighth commandment: “You shall not bear false witness.” The Catechism defines truth, identifies the importance of truth, and reflects on martyrdom. Fr. Mike unpacks all of this information and reminds us that our duty as Christians is to live in the truth and bear witness to the truth in what we say and how we act.

Rabbi Jonathan Sacks believed that, out of the science of positive psychology, and in conversation with cognitive behavioral therapy, a new Musar movement could be established. In this episode of the Tradition Podcast, Tamra Wright and Mordechai Schiffman begin to unpack what this might mean in light of their co-authored essay “Radical Resilience: Hope, Agency and Community,” from TRADITION's recent special issue on the intellectual legacy of Rabbi Jonathan Sacks. They are joined for the conversation by that volume's co-editor, Samuel Lebens. Together, our three guests explore the relationship between hope, agency, and community; they consider whether Rabbi Sacks was unduly harsh on optimists; and discuss why he placed more faith upon philosophically inspired psychology than upon the main contemporary schools of academic philosophy. What does it mean for Torah to be in conversation with a science like psychology? What does it mean for students of a rabbi to turn their critical gaze towards their late teacher, who now becomes an object of their ongoing research? Watch a video recording of this conversation.

Rabbi Dr. Mordechai Schiffman is an assistant professor at Yeshiva University's Azrieli Graduate School and the associate rabbi at Kingsway Jewish Center. Dr. Tamra Wright is a Senior Research Fellow at the London School of Jewish Studies. Rabbi Dr. Samuel Lebens is an associate professor of philosophy at the University of Haifa. The post Radical Resilience: Hope, Agency and Community first appeared on Tradition Online.

We have reached the In Brief section, or nugget day, on the seventh commandment. Father Mike reiterates that the right to private property comes from our dignity as humans, and the Church has a duty to weigh in on economic or social matters where that dignity is threatened. He challenges us to ask ourselves, do we see Jesus in “the distressing disguise of the poor” and just walk by him, or do we respond to him? Today's readings are Catechism paragraphs 2450-2463.

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.

The SSPX Podcast is produced by Angelus Press, which has as its mission the fortification of traditional Catholics so that they can defend the Faith, and reaching out to those who have not yet found Tradition.  – – – – – – What is the SSPX? The main goal of the Society of Saint Pius X is to preserve the Catholic Faith in its fullness and purity, to teach its truths, and to diffuse its virtues, especially through the Roman Catholic priesthood. Authentic spiritual life, the sacraments, and the traditional liturgy are its primary means of bringing this life of grace to souls. Although the traditional Latin Mass is the most visible and public expression of the work of the Society, we are committed to defending Catholic Tradition in its entirety: all of Catholic doctrine and morals as the Church has always defended them. What people need is the Catholic Faith, without compromise, with all the truth and beauty which accompanies it. https://sspx.org

Nur rund 1.800 Menschen leben hier ganzjährig – umgeben von Wind, Wellen und weiter Landschaft.Das Leben auf Læsø folgt einem eigenen Rhythmus. Auch wenn im Winter Stürme über die Insel ziehen und die Fähre manchmal pausiert, schätzen viele Einwohnerinnen und Einwohner gerade diese Ruhe und Abgeschiedenheit.

This week, Jake and Bob explore how inner healing is rooted within the tradition of the Catholic Church. Drawing from the Catechism, they discuss the three expressions of prayer—vocal, meditative, and contemplative—and how each form is incorporated within the inner healing process. Far from being a psychological exercise, inner healing comes from a deeply relational encounter with Jesus and restores the whole person so we might live in deeper communion with Him.   Key Points: Inner healing prayer is deeply rooted in the Church's tradition The Catechism identifies three key expressions of prayer: vocal, meditation, and contemplative. These are all at the heart of the inner healing process Healing comes from an encounter with Jesus and is not a result of a mere completion of steps  When we pray, we need to engage our hearts instead of simply repeating words God is always present when we pray, even when we cannot hear His voice Inner healing often requires us to patiently cooperate with God's timing. He knows more about the mysteries and vulnerabilities of our hearts than we do   Catechism Paragraphs Mentioned in the Episode: Vocal Prayer: CCC 2700 Meditation: CCC 2705 - 2706, 2708,  Contemplative Prayer: CCC 2709 - 2710, 2716    Connect with Restore the Glory:  Instagram: @restoretheglorypodcast  Twitter: @RestoreGloryPod Facebook: Restore the Glory Podcast   Never miss out on an episode by hitting the subscribe button right now!

What does it mean to have respect for the goods of others? Fr.
