  • Episode 12: Covid-19
    2025/02/03
    In today’s episode I talk briefly about the Covid-19 pandemic. The Catholic Church teaches about faith and the problem of evil, which may be one of the hardest mysteries to understand. Many fall away and loose faith due to the evils in this world.

    Also, I finish the story of the birth of our second child. New life shines hope in times of darkness!

    In todays episode I continue to tell my story about my journey after Cursillo. I talk about my love of writing and how I was inspired to continue writing my autobiography. I share more about my mental and physical health and my discovery of the negative effects of the birth control pill.

  • Episode 6: Both/And
    2024/12/06
    In today’s episode I talk about both/and reasoning. The fact that the human person is created with BOTH a body AND a soul. I also talk about how this principle can be used in a lot of areas. For example, the fact that the Bible is the creation of both God and man. Man cooperates with God’s plan for salvation by using the talents that have been given to him by the Creator Himself!

  • Episode 5: Thanksgiving
    2024/11/29
    In today’s episode I reveal the core belief of the Catholic Church. The Eucharist is the equivalent to the Protestant communion or Lord’s Supper. I attempt to explain how Christ’s real presence is in the bread and wine that is consecrated at every Catholic mass. Jesus came to offer his body as a sacrifice for the forgiveness of sins and we are to consume this sacrifice just as God’s people did in the Old Testament.

    Here are some resources for the Eucharist:
