Speculation about the Antichrist abounds — but what does the Church actually teach? Drawing on Scripture, the early Fathers, and saints like Augustine and Aquinas, this timely book explains the prophecies, signs, and deceptions surrounding the Antichrist’s rise and reign. You’ll learn how to recognize his tactics, avoid spiritual seduction, and stay rooted in the truth. Discover Our Lady’s role, the danger of sacrilege and false prophets, and why staying faithful now is more vital than ever.

The Antichrist

Catholics use Scripture and Tradition because Scripture tells us to use both. St. Paul wrote to the Thessalonians:

“So then, brethren, stand firm and hold to the traditions which you were taught by us, either by word of mouth or by letter” (2 Thessalonians 2:15).

If God wanted us to use Scripture alone, wouldn’t he tell us as much in the Bible? True, St. Paul emphasizes the value of Scripture:

“All scripture is inspired by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness, that the man of God may be complete, equipped for every good work” (2 Timothy 3:16-17).

However, St. Paul is just as emphatic about the value of the Church:

“If I am delayed, you may know how one ought to behave in the household of God, which is the church of the living God, the pillar and bulwark of the truth” (1 Timothy 3:15).

Fr. Mike explains how the Catholic Church has made all of God’s gifts more accessible to humanity through the ages. Scripture, the Magisterium, and Tradition are not opposing authorities battling for power. They are three pillars that support and inform each other—making God all the more present to us.<a rel="payment" href="https://ascensionpress.com/products/support-ascension">Support The Fr.

Epilogue

A Final Thought

Barbara Heil’s journey from skepticism to the heart of the Catholic Church began with a powerful encounter with Christ’s love. Once a Protestant missionary and pastor, she was stunned to discover the beauty of Catholic teaching and the Real Presence in the Eucharist. Her story of healing, discovery, and surrender reveals how God gently leads souls home—and how obedience to His will brings true freedom and joy.

Journey into His Heart

This week we discuss the title, "Mighty God" and the way in which God shows his might by making himself small, by forgiving us, by coming to us in the Eucharist. God is great and omnipotent but he chooses to become small to us so we can respond to Him in love. He made himself fragile to give us his strength. He became vulnerable so we could finally open our hearts in love, without fear. He is with you. He is for you. And he is enough.

Episode 75 - Trust Comes From Relationship, This episode kicks off a four-part series on a new retreat based on the Litany of Trust from the Sisters of Life. You can get yourself a copy of the book at https://stpaulcenter.com/trust10/ There are some virtues we can work on and grow in—but trust isn't like that. It's not your own project. You don't work on it directly, because it's the fruit of relationship with the Lord. If you want to develop more trust, focus first on that relationship; on conversion, on healing, on experiencing his goodness alive in you. Because the more you get to know God, the more you find that he is good and worthy of your trust. When you have a chance to trust him (you know the kind of moment), hear him speak gently to you through this line from Sr Faustina: "I don't want you to give you 'yes' to a set of circumstances, but to me." The Poco a Poco podcast happens because of generous donors like you. You can give at https://spiritjuice.org/supportpoco. Thank you!
