  • Episode 20: The Heart of Worship is Sacrifice
    2025/06/06
    In today’s episode I revisit the topic of the Eucharist. Members of my own family have shown a disinterest in going to mass at times, saying they feel God’s presence more when hunting or fishing or when they attend other churches worship services.

    I want to explain how worship is not based on feelings, it’s based on relations. How is God calling us to worship and what does that look like from a biblical and Catholic viewpoint?

  • Episode 18: The Pope
    2025/05/01
    In today’s episode I talk about the role of the pope as head of the Catholic Church. We remember Pope Francis, who passed away this Easter.

    Eternal rest grant unto Pope Francis, O Lord,
    and let perpetual light shine upon him.

    through the mercy of God, rest in peace.
