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.

We step into the world of premium winegrowing with two of Sonoma County's most respected vineyard leaders.First, we hear from Jake Terrell, Director of Vineyards at St. Francis Winery, who shares how his viticulture background and years managing vineyards like Monte Rosso have shaped his approach to sustainable farming. Jake outlines how timing, precision, and green practices drive quality grape production. He also discusses his role in revising the Code of Sustainable Winegrowing Practices, showcasing his leadership in building a more environmentally conscious wine industry.Then, we're joined by Glenn Proctor of Puccioni Ranch & Vineyards, whose winemaking heritage dates back to 1904. Glenn gives us a rare look at the art of letting the vineyard speak for itself, drawing on a century of family knowledge and old-vine farming. We also explore his broader experience in the wine industry — from leadership roles at Beaulieu Vineyard (BV) and Sterling, to becoming a partner at The Ciatti Company, the world's largest grape and bulk wine brokerage.Together, Jake and Glenn reflect on the evolution of the wine business, how sustainability and tradition are converging, and what the future holds for vineyard operations amid changing climate, consumer demand, and labor dynamics.Listeners will walk away with an appreciation for what it means to farm for flavor, legacy, and longevity — and how lessons from the vineyard apply to agriculture across the board.

Tradition to Truth: One Man's Search for Honest Answers by Jerry Mitchell Amazon.com Givegod90.com Is there a secret code in the Bible? Do you want the key to that code? Tradition to Truth is a journey through time and tradition. It will teach you how to find the answers many people have about the Bible. This is a story of how one man asked for answers and discovered those answers were not what he expected. If you are willing to challenge your traditions and strengthen your faith, this is for you.About the author Growing up on a farm and working with large animals for most of my life gave me a great deal of insight into the blueprint our Creator used to design our world and mankind. When I began asking questions that no pastor or Rabbi could answer without twisting the Bible out of context I began to read everything I could about where some of these traditions first originated. I soon discovered the answers are already in the Bible if we are willing to put our traditions and man made doctrines aside and actually read what is written. The result is in the books, what has taken years of research and forensic analysis of the Bible may answer some of your questions and raise even more.

To follow Christ, St. Paul was called to imitate Our Lord in every facet of his apostolate.

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.

Every year around Cade's birthday, we make it a tradition to sit down and record a podcast together. This year, Cade is turning 12, and I can't believe how much he's grown. Not just physically (hello, football tackles and jiu-jitsu moves), but emotionally and mentally too.   In this episode, we talk about his life right now—what he's into, what he's learning, how sports are shaping his identity, and what it's like growing up in a high-energy, high-intention family. We cover everything from sibling dynamics and friendship to confidence, character, and, yes, middle school nerves.   This is a reflection of what it means to 'practice brave' in parenting, in sport, and in everyday life. It's personal, it's honest, and it's a reminder of why I started this entire business in the first place: Cade.   Learn more about the Practice Brave Fitness Program: https://briannabattles.com/practicebrave   Need workouts for your pregnancy or postpartum?

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.

We begin our examination of the sacrament of Confirmation. Fr. Mike emphasizes that the reception of Confirmation is necessary for the completion and strengthening of baptismal grace. He also highlights the vital importance of the reception of Confirmation because it gives us the power to be a witness to God's grace on earth, just as the Apostles received that same power at Pentecost. Today's readings are Catechism paragraphs 1285-1289.

In this summary of the Church's teachings on Baptism, the Catechism relays the heart of the sacrament. If you needed to quickly explain Baptism to someone on the street—Fr. Mike says—this would be your guide. Fr. Mike hones in on the fact that Baptism is “a grace and a gift of God that does not presuppose any human merit.” Today's readings are paragraphs 1275-1284.

For hundreds of years, the Spanish banned the Incan Festival of the Sun—the Andean New Year. But since the middle of the 20th century, Inti Raymi has been back. Today, communities, cities, towns and even universities hold Inti Raymi celebrations. They make offerings, light fires and incense. They say prayers to Pachamama and Inti, the sun. They sing and dance. And it's not just a celebration. It is an act of resistance.This is episode 50 of Stories of Resistance—a podcast co-produced by The Real News and Global Exchange.

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.

The Catechism shows us how Baptism unites the Church as a “People of God of the New Covenant” and goes so far as to say that “Baptism constitutes the foundation of communion among all Christians.” We all belong to Jesus, together. Fr. Mike highlights the fact that with the gift of unity in Baptism comes real responsibility. Today's readings are Catechism paragraphs 1267-1274. This episode has been found to be in conformity with the Catechism by the Institute on the Catechism, under the Subcommittee on the Catechism, USCCB.

Baptism has profound effects upon the baptized: “purification from sins and new birth in the Holy Spirit.” The Catechism shows us that the graces of Baptism are so deep that—for the newly baptized—“nothing remains that would impede their entry into the Kingdom of God.” Fr. Mike relates to us the hard teaching that we are born mere beloved creatures of God—but through Baptism, we become adopted sons and daughters of God. Today's readings are paragraphs 1262-1266.

“Baptism is the sacrament of faith.” The Catechism explains to us who can baptize as well as why we need Baptism for eternal life. It also explains to us what happens when people die without the opportunity for Baptism. Fr. Mike addresses our “what about” questions concerning Baptism. Most especially, Fr. Mike addresses the destination of those who will never have the opportunity to hear the Gospel or be baptized. Today's readings are Catechism paragraphs 1253-1261.

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.

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

In this episode of YouTube Catechesis, we tackle a bold question: Why did the Protestant Reformers remove seven books from the Bible? We trace the history of these Deuterocanonical books, their use by Jesus and the apostles, and how they were affirmed by the early Church through apostolic tradition. We also examine the real reason they were removed: because their content challenged Reformation theology. Join us as we unpack how the Bible came to be, why Scripture and Tradition go hand in hand, and what's truly at stake when we sever ourselves from the Church that preserved it. And if you want to go even deeper, I've prepared a PODD (Patreon-Only Deep Dive)** where I break this topic wide open. You'll get an exclusive extended audio episode, plus a one-page summary you can use to defend the faith in real conversations. I've also completely overhauled the Patreon tiers, no more basic shout-outs.
