This book recounts the Catholic uprising in Spain against communist and socialist forces during the Spanish Civil War. It tells the true story of how priests, religious, and laypeople fought to defend their faith, often at great personal cost. Through vivid accounts of martyrdom, sacrifice, and perseverance, it highlights the heroism of those who refused to abandon Christ and His Church in the face of brutal persecution.

Appendix

In this candid and engaging memoir, a simple retreat in France becomes the setting for a profound spiritual reckoning. As the author journeys from the noise of modern life into the silence of a monastery, he confronts doubt, suffering, and the deeper questions of faith with honesty and insight. Blending thoughtful reflection with moments of humor, this narrative explores the struggle to find God amid confusion and reveals a patient and merciful Lord who meets the soul even in its darkest moments, leading it toward renewed hope and deeper trust.

4/22 - Pope St. Soter

Episode 271 - Fire, Desire, Theosis What do you really hunger and thirst for? As the friars continue through the Franciscan Lent, they dive deep into the Beatitude: "Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they will be satisfied." This conversation is about holy desire, the kind that burns, refines, and draws us closer to God Himself. They unpack what it means to let go of lesser hungers, to purify our desires, and to rediscover the fire that leads to union with God. From St. Francis' radical poverty to our own longing for holiness, the friars remind us that this journey isn't about doing more, but actually about becoming more like Him. Join us as we learn to hunger for what truly satisfies, the very life of God alive within us.

Fire, Desire, Theosis

Prayer isn’t just another good thing to do; it’s absolutely necessary if we want to know God’s will in our lives and draw closer to him. The trouble is finding the time and willpower to pray. In this episode, Fr. Mike Schmitz suggests being a bit more intentional in our prayer lives, asking these four simple questions: When should I pray, where should I pray, what should I pray, and why should I pray?<a rel="payment" href="https://ascensionpress.com/products/support-ascension">Support The Fr.

What Happened to Catholicism

In this experiential exercise, we invite parts of us to share their stories of why they hold anger toward God.  Dr. Peter offers an invitation to parts to see if we can listen to those stories in an open, nonjudgmental way, understanding that there are always reasons for anger at God, reasons that stem from misunderstanding and misinterpretations of experiences.  Parts are angry more at their images of God -- their idols -- than at who God really is. Live audience participants share their experience in debriefing and Dr. Peter also answers questions.

108 Giving up the Idols We Hate -- Experiential Exercise

In this week's episode we wanted you to hear the final talk from our Royal Women's retreat. Mary Bielski talks about our inheritance as children of God, who is the King of Kings. She passionately shares about what it means to operate in authority, how to become more aware and strengthened by the cloud of witnesses, and how to live out our calling and purpose and receive provision from God. Here is the video Mary shows during the talk: <a href= "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HEiSF8HpyDg">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HEiSF8HpyDg</a> Discussion Questions: <ol> <li>You have a royal inheritance as a child of God, the King of Kings. What does this mean to you?</li> <li>We have authority as daughters of the King. How can you begin to walk in this authority in the way you act and pray?</li> <li>The orphan spirit can keep us from experiencing the inheritance that God has for us because we aren't ready for it. In what areas does God desire you to grow in maturity so that you can receive His inheritance?</li> </ol> Journal Questions: <ol> <li>How can you pray with more authority?</li> <li>How do you need to grow in self care so that you are filled up and can offer more to those God has entrusted to you?</li> <li>Where do you need to give God your fiat?</li> </ol> Quote to Ponder: "The message of the gospel isn't about just getting into heaven, its about heaven getting into us" - Mary Bielski

&quot;It is not enough to love the young; they must know that they are loved&quot;Come listen to the second part of Saint John Bosco&apos;s story! In this episode, we will hear how his Christlike love transformed the souls he touched. John Bosco truly believed that each one of the boys he rescued was made for greatness, made for sainthood. No matter the obstacle, John Bosco never gave up when he knew he was following the will of God. And it&apos;s because of his persistence that hundreds of boys were rescued and the Salesian order was founded! Saints Alive is brought to you by the #1 Catholic Prayer App, Hallow!
