In this Easter Octave episode, Fr. Shenan Boquet joins us to unpack the profound meaning of the Divine Mercy devotion—and why it is relevant today.

Rooted in the visions of St. Faustina Kowalska and promoted globally by Pope St. John Paul II, the Divine Mercy devotions are a healing remedy in a world deeply wounded by sin, violence, and the breakdown of family life. Fr. Boquet also discusses why this devotion was temporarily banned for 19 years.

In this episode, we explore:

• The history of Divine Mercy and its origins in pre-WWII Poland
• The fascinating connection between Divine Mercy and abortion
• Why mercy and justice are NOT opposed
• How Divine Mercy offers healing after even the gravest sins
• Why this devotion is critical in today’s culture of death

Fr. Boquet explains how the message of Divine Mercy speaks directly to modern crises—abortion, family breakdown, and loss of faith—offering both truth and hope.

If you've ever wondered:

👉 Can God forgive serious sins like abortion?

👉 Why did this devotion emerge during global turmoil?

👉 How do mercy and justice work together?

This episode will give you clarity and hope.
