Tue, 14 Jan 2020 - 22min - 85 - Ep. 56: 20- Cabernet + Myrrh + Baptism- 20
Epiphany is more than just the the three kings visiting the child Jesus. It also celebrates the baptism of Jesus in the Jordan River and Jesus’ first miracle at the wedding at Cana.

Mon, 06 Jan 2020 - 23min - 84 - Ep. 55: And After 8 Days. . .
For centuries, Catholics celebrated the Circumcision of the Lord on January 1. That practice ended in 1960. But, what was the significance of Jesus' circumcision, and of circumcision in general? We talk to priests, theologians and an art historian to find these answers. Then, we talk with a journalist who went on a years-long quest to find what some believe to be the Church's most unusual relic: the foreskin of Jesus.

Mon, 30 Dec 2019 - 23min - 83 - Ep. 54: The Unlikeliest of Friendships
This week on the podcast: two unlikely friendships…and one friendship so unlikely, it probably wasn’t a friendship at all. We bring you the stories of two college professors with very different viewpoints— Robert George and Cornel West— who became best friends; two heroes of the American political left and right, Supreme Court Justices Antonin Scalia and Ruth Bader Ginsburg, who were friends for 30 years; and the somewhat odd correspondence between Blessed Pius IX and Jefferson Davis, president of the Confederacy.

Mon, 04 Nov 2019 - 20min - 76 - Ep. 47: Burning Love
Catholic teaching on the “cleansing fire” of purgatory is perhaps one of the Church’s spookier beliefs. This week, we visit the world-famous “Purgatory Museum” in Rome and talk to theologians and experts about what the Church teaches about purgatory and how it applies to our lives. Shownotes: https://www.catholicnewsagency.com/resources/apologetics/purgatory/purgatory-the-purifying-fire https://www.catholicnewsagency.com/news/have-souls-in-purgatory-visited-people-on-earth-67916 St. Gertrude Prayer for Souls in Purgatory: “Eternal Father, I offer Thee the Most Precious Blood of Thy Divine Son, Jesus, in union with the Masses said throughout the world today, for all the holy souls in purgatory, for sinners everywhere, for sinners in the universal church, those in my own home and within my family. Amen.”
Mon, 28 Oct 2019 - 24min - 75 - Ep. 46: Borderlands
The number of Central American and Mexican migrants crossing the southern border into the United States has slowed to a trickle, but in terms of helping families in need, Catholic groups at the border know there is still much to be done. This week on CNA Newsroom, we visit the US-Mexico border in El Paso and talk to bishops, priests, laypeople, non-Catholics and everyone in between about what the need is and what people of faith are doing to help. And stick around, because we also cover a side of the immigration debate not often acknowledged: what happens when undocumented immigrants feel a call to the priesthood?
