  • Summary

  • You want to learn about the Catholic Faith, and want to be sure it's accurate. You have questions that haven't been answered, or you've always wanted to ask a priest something, but it slips your mind, or it seems obvious or inappropriate. You're willing to learn, but you might need to do it on your own time. This podcast aims to teach about the Catholic Faith, from Sacred Scripture, Church Teaching, Tradition, history, saints, and honest reasoning. Fr. Jack is a Roman Catholic priest who will sit down to answer questions, share some perspective, and explain particular points of the Faith. He's a New York native, who tries to go long enough to cover what matters, be interesting enough to teach something, and quick enough to get out before you get too bored. Episodes uploaded in bunches, based on your questions, your reminders, Father's timing, and his (limited) self-discipline. Email questions, thoughts or requested topics to acatholicpriesttalks@yahoo.com.

  • The Rosary

    The Rosary
    Oct 3 2020
    We go over what the Rosary is, where did it come from, and where it got it's name. Then we answer why it seems so repetitive, how to pray it, and what are some things to think about while we are praying. We finish with where to look for more information on the Rosary, with the Secret of the Rosary, by Saint Louis de Montfort.

  • The Communion of Saints

    The Communion of Saints
    Sep 26 2020
    We look at the phrase 'the Communion of Saints' as it appears in the Nicene Creed. We examine how Saint Paul refers to all believers as saints, and how that phrase still refers to the community of all believers. We also see how our actions and personal choices matter to others, and how to change the world, to stop systems of injustice or sin, we need to start by changing ourselves. We finish with a look at the Church Militant, Church Suffering and Church Triumphant, and how we can relate to saints.

  • The Inner Ring

    The Inner Ring
    Sep 19 2020
    We examine C.S. Lewis’ essay, “The Inner Ring.” We then develop some of the themes of wanting to fit in. We see how some groups are worth belonging to, and some are not. We see how those Inner Rings are unavoidable, and can even be good. Other times, whether in families, friends, education or employment, being ‘in the know’ is a dangerous thing, and doesn’t help us, or others. It can be about excluding others, and then we can never be happy, since there is always another level. It can also tempt us, because of Pride, to lose our souls. When we join an Inner Ring out of genuine love of the people, or because we like the task at hand, we find peace, and it helps us grow in God’s grace.
