November 19, 2017 was declared the first ever "World Day of the Poor" by Pope Francis. Matt and Jonathan discuss seeing the poor in missions.

A seemingly narrow question cuts to the heart of our Christian faith. Matt and Jon discuss and wrestle with the International Theological Commission's 2007 document "The Hope Of Salvation For Infants Who Die Without Being Baptised."

Does the Pope care about World Mission Sunday? Of course he does.

Is gossip really a sin? If so, is it a big deal? Matt and Jonathan gossip about people who gossip, including Pope Francis.

Matt and Jonathan discuss recent trips to the jungles of Ecuador and the hotels of Orlando.

Matt and Jon attempt to answer a question from the mailbag: If God's forgiveness is conditional upon our repentance, should our forgiveness of others be conditional as well?

Matt and Jonathan discuss their recent trips to Africa (Malawi) and Central America (Costa Rica).

Matt and Jonathan discuss St. John Paul II's message from January 1, 1991 and what it can teach us about Pope Francis's Laudato Si.

What does the Catholic Church teach about man's relationship to the rest of Creation? Matt and Jonathan discuss Scripture, the Catechism, and common misunderstandings.

In 2014, FMC co-founder Frank Summers gave this keynote address at PROCLAIM, a Catholic missions conference. We live in the age of the New Evangelization. A basic element of every Catholic life must be a lively understanding of the Gospel of Jesus, and a willingness to sow the seeds of that Word everywhere on earth today. This is the time for experiencing and sharing the “joy of the Gospel.” Sharing from Pope Francis' "Evangelii Gaudium" (The Joy of the Gospel) and George Weigel's "Evangelical Catholicism," Frank Summers shares about how today is the age of evangelical Catholicism.

Join us for Part 2 of the discussion... A man on a street corner holds up a sign with Bible verses and lists of people who are going to Hell... Evangelizing or Proselytizing? What's the difference? Is that even a good example for discussing the difference? Why are we even talking about this? Matt and Jonathan discuss.
