Why Did Jesus Die? A Short Introduction to Catholic Beliefs | Fr. Romanus Cessario, OP

The social duty of religion and the right to religious freedom are presented to us in the Catechism.

156: Should we be evangelizing the Jews? (Supersessionism) W/ Fr. William Goldin

Day 228: The Watchman's Duty (2024)

Opportunities to evangelize can be found anywhere, even on an airplane. Jeff Cavins describes a time when he took the opportunity to share Jesus with a fellow passenger on an airplane. Jeff explains that we are never “off the clock” as evangelizers and encourages everyone to be on the lookout for opportunities to share the love of Jesus with others.

Is Atheism Irrational? What Reason Can Tell Us about God's Existence | Prof. John O'Callaghan

In this episode, we continue in our Lenten series as we journey through Sister Miriam's book Restore. It's not too late to join us! <a href= "https://www.avemariapress.com/products/restore">You can find your copy today at Ave Maria Press</a>. This week we discuss the healing that comes through almsgiving. We share our own personal experiences of tithing our time, practicing obedience in our vocations, and how almsgiving is more than giving money. We pray that God would grow your capacity to see Christ in the other through the practice of almsgiving!

Marriage Spirituality Q&A

Jesus has a wounded human heart; he allowed himself to be fully wounded this way. If it had only been his hands or feet, he would've survived. How do we allow ourselves to be wounded for him? My sacrifices thus far are survivable. I could still be intact on my own. He gave us everything; we can't turn back. Evangelical chastity is the full, total gift of your heart, which is set on fire with love for God and for one another. Jesus teaches us a new way to love on the cross — one that lines up with our desires. We want to love differently, but we're tempted to settle. There's a real fear in getting our hopes up. The Father wants you to get your hopes up. Set your hopes high for intimacy — for the union and the love that is possible.

On Chastity: The Wounded Heart of Jesus (Lent Part Seven)

As we get closer to the end of the Old Testament, Fr. Mike highlights one of the lessons we&#39;ve seen time and time again—that God continues to fight for each of us, despite the brokenness and messiness of our lives. He also points out how the reading from Wisdom foreshadows the coming of Jesus. The readings are 2 Maccabees 14, Wisdom 17-18, and Proverbs 25:18-20.

Day 311: God Fights for You (2025)

We continue our examination of the different elements of the liturgy, specifically holy images in the liturgy. Fr. Mike highlights that because the Word was made visible in the flesh, Christians now can use images of Christ to pray. Liturgical art is a symbol that points to a greater reality than itself. It is meant to lift our hearts and minds to the Lord in a way that words cannot. Today’s readings are Catechism paragraphs 1159-1162.

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.

Day 158: Holy Images in the Liturgy (2024)

Homily from Pentecost Sunday. The best way to thank the Giver is to use the gift. At Pentecost, the Lord poured out His Holy Spirit upon the disciples and blessed them with His gifts. Immediately, they used those gifts. These gifts were given to be used. And so are all of the gifts God continues to give.<dl style="margin : 0; padding-top:0;"><dt style="font-weight:normal;"> Mass Readings from May 19, 2024:</dt><dt style="font-weight:normal;"> Acts 2:1-11</dt><dt style="font-weight:normal;"> Psalms 104:1, 24, 29-31, 34</dt><dt style="font-weight:normal;">1 Corinthians 12:3-7, 12-13</dt> John 20:19-23

As we begin to wrap up 1 Maccabees, Fr. Mike directs our attention to how 2 Maccabees will tell the same story in a different way. In Sirach, we are encouraged to know our own hearts, so that we can know our strengths, weaknesses, and where we might need healing. The readings are 1 Maccabees 15, Sirach 36-37, and Proverbs 23:26-28.

Together with Fr. Mike, we continue our examination of the sacrament of the Eucharist. Fr. Mike takes us back to the Book of Genesis, the sacrifices of Cain and Abel, and the Book of Exodus, the story of Moses and Pharaoh. He emphasizes that the point of freedom in life is to be led to the freedom to worship God and that it matters to God that we freely choose to attend the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass. Today’s readings are Catechism paragraphs 1356-1361.

Day 185: Thanksgiving, Memorial, Presence (2024)

In this reading, we learn that all sinners are the authors of Christ’s Passion. We do not blame the Jews for the Crucifixion of Jesus as we know that it is our own sins that caused his Passion and death. Fr. Mike tells us that the Jews are not collectively responsible for Jesus’ death, and they should not be spoken of as rejected or cursed. We’re reminded that when we choose sin and deny Christ by our deeds, we crucify him anew in our hearts. Today’s readings are Catechism paragraphs 595-598.

Transcription:
Trent:
Last night I watched the debate between Donald Trump and Kamala Harris, and as someone who&#8217;s been intimately involved in the pro-life movement for over 20 years, I was appalled by the lies and distortions that Harris and the moderators were peddling on this issue.
