    In this episode of WCAT Radio, Michael Brennan interviews Ben Bongers on his book True Love: 12 Christmas Stories, My True Love Gave to Me

    Let’s face it, life is messy and so are emotions. But, as Hellen Keller said, “The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched. They must be felt with the heart.” This book was written with love, for someone the author loves, and who loves him in return. The twelve stories contain every emotion that we feel daily, but we’re too afraid to let out. They are offered in the hope that readers will give themselves permission to really feel. To laugh, to hope, and yes… to cry. What better time of life than the Holidays to open that little door to our hearts that we slam shut and lock most of the time.

    In this episode of "I Thought You'd Like to Know," Spirit Radio interviews Kenneth Francis on his book Theology in Music (August 28, 2025)

    Theology in Music: How Christian Themes Permeate Classic Songs by Kenneth Francis reveals the hidden grammar in classic popular songs theologically marinated in existential narratives, featuring idolatry, sin, love, pathos and meaning. And what better religion to focus on than Christianity for such themes, from the soul-music classics of the 1960/70s, to the Top 100 Billboard hits of the same eras. Welcome to the world of classic songs permeated with Christian themes.

    Cross the Divide is helping veterans and their families navigate the challenging terrain of life, promoting healing, hope, strength and growth by application of Christ-centered, biblical truths in the venue of God’s creation.

    Cross The Divide provides transformational experiences in the venue of the outdoors such as hunting, fishing, backpacking, horse camping, and llama packing trips, as well as retreats and seminars. With the assistance of track chairs and an incredible team of guides and facilitators, we are able to accommodate physically disabled veterans on some of our hunting and fishing trips. Through the personal care and attentiveness of our team, we give veterans a place to talk about their non-physical wounds and personal challenges as well. Cross The Divide is focused on sending each veteran back to their family and their community in a healthier place while connecting them with other veterans and inviting them to a deeper relationship with God.

    Episode 7 of Synods and Synodality: George Weigel on the Concept of Synodality and its Impact on the Catholic Church (April 9, 2025)
    Apr 9 2025
    In this episode of Synods and Synodality, Robert Fastiggi and Michael Vacca interview George Weigel on the concept of synodality and its impact on the Catholic Church.

    George Weigel emphasized that synodality in Eastern Christianity involves governance by synods of bishops, unlike the current Western interpretation. He highlighted the importance of maintaining a strong doctrinal identity and moral boundaries, citing Sub-Saharan Africa and Germany as examples.

    Weigel praised John Paul II's contributions, including his personal witness, interpretation of Vatican II, and the Theology of the Body. He also discussed the need for a return to the teachings of Veritatis Splendor to address moral relativism. The conversation concluded with reflections on the future of the Church and the importance of hope.

  • New Books Network - Almost Good Catholics on Lived Experience and the Search for Truth (April 5, 2025)

    New Books Network - Almost Good Catholics on Lived Experience and the Search for Truth (April 5, 2025)
    Apr 7 2025
    “What is truth?” Pontius Pilate scoffed at Jesus (Jn 18:38), and that’s how we think about matters today in our culture—subjectively: my truth, your truth, etc. To make the argument that there is a knowable Truth (with a capital T) that is written in the world and in our bones, theologians Deborah Savage and Robert Fastiggi examine a selection of autobiographical accounts of ‘lived experience.’ They take a number of personal essays written by those who have erred from the path of Catholic social teaching and sexual morality—in the dark forest of the world, to borrow from Dante—and their subsequent disappointments and suffering. They examine these narratives through the anthropology of John Paul II and the authority of the physical and social sciences, including medical doctors. So, there is Good News for all of us: if we find ourselves lost and unhappy in our errant meanderings, the Church can bring us home. We can always choose, as God reminded Cain gently (Gen 4:7), “sin is couching at the door; its desire is for you, but you may overcome it.”
