  • Day 250: Conversion in Society (2025)

    Day 250: Conversion in Society (2025)
    Sep 7 2025
    Before we can see outward changes for the good in society, there must be inward conversion in the hearts of its members, so says the Catechism. Fr. Mike highlights the fact that societies are made up of people with both body and soul—and the soul is often overlooked. Because we are broken, there is a “permanent need” for our conversion, and any society that fails to take this into account is doomed to do violence to human dignity. Today’s readings are Catechism paragraphs 1886-1896. This episode has been found to be in conformity with the Catechism by the Institute on the Catechism, under the Subcommittee on the Catechism, USCCB.

    Day 249: The Person in Society (2025)
    Sep 6 2025
    Man is made for communion. God created man in his triune image, making us naturally social and communal beings. We learn that various societies weave us together: the family, the state, our professions, and recreational activities, among others. Fr. Mike explains how the Church promotes the principle of subsidiarity to protect the goodness of the various levels of society as each level pursues the common good. Today’s readings are Catechism paragraphs 1877-1885. This episode has been found to be in conformity with the Catechism by the Institute on the Catechism, under the Subcommittee on the Catechism, USCCB.

  • Day 248: The Spread of Sin (2025)

    Day 248: The Spread of Sin (2025)
    Sep 5 2025
    We close the section on human dignity and goodness by learning how sin engenders vice. Our readings today discuss the proliferation of sin and how capital sins, in particular, lead to vices that can become rooted in a person or society. Fr. Mike reminds us that while sin is a personal act, it is also possible for us to cooperate in and encourage the sins of others. This can lead to the formation of “structures of sin” that lead others down the path of evil and contribute to establishing “social sins.” Today’s readings are Catechism paragraphs 1865-1876. This episode has been found to be in conformity with the Catechism by the Institute on the Catechism, under the Subcommittee on the Catechism, USCCB.

A invaluable learning opportunity to grow in faith and understanding of the Catholic Church. Including the history of the church and church tradition.

A priceless gift

I was baptized Anglican, a cross between Catholic and Protestant. I have leaned more Protestant and gather my learning from all the true trinitarian denominations. I am amazed at this Catechism and have gotten the book too. Every Christian can gain so much understanding from this podcast and the Catechism. And for all the Catholics I have run across who say they are not really being "fed" by the church... we'll dig into the Catechism as an adult and see how much you gain from it!

Every Christian needs this
