Trinity Sunday
Life is a pilgrimage that starts with the Trinity and ends with the Trinity. We'll consider the exitus-reditus of St. Thomas Aquinas in Tolkien's Lord of the Rings. Nota Bene: Although removed in the 1971 Liturgy of the Hours, the Athansian Creed was in every Roman Breviary for hundreds of years. Here is a good English translation of that supreme confession of the faith in the Trinity: Whosoever will be saved, before all things it is necessary that he hold the Catholic Faith. Which Faith except everyone do keep whole and undefiled, without doubt he shall perish everlastingly. And the Catholic Faith is this, that we worship one God in Trinity and Trinity [...]

Mary’s Role in Pentecost
Covered in this podcast is a wide range of Catholic issues, from the first Pentecost to the charismatic movement today, to St. Maximilian Kolbe. We’ll especially consider Mary’s role against demons and the syllabus of errors in modern times. Special thanks again to the Benedictine Nuns of Mary Queen of Apostles for allowing me to use their music as the bumpers to my iTunes sermons and podcasts.

Sermon on Islam
What do Muslims really believe? Although we hear alarming facts in this sermon, I draw from the Qur'an, world history and secular sources like Atlantic Magazine and Washington Post. Towards the end, I quote Catholic sources like this African bishop as well as TFP’s Rosary campaign to defeat ISIS.

Third Sunday After Easter: The Indwelling
Why did Jesus *not* go to other nations after His Resurrection? The answer has to do with how Christians are called to live the three stages of the interior life: The purgative way, the illuminitive way and the unitive way. It also has a lot do with God's initiative in Ascension and Pentecost and then our response that leads to interior divinization and exterior evangelization. The launching point for this sermon is actually a comparison of the above teachings in Catholicism pace Mormonism.

Second Sunday After Easter
aka Good Shepherd Sunday This sermon recognizes the wolves that have caused the current crisis in the Catholic Church. In this sermon, I also describe the shepherds that God may be currently raising in order to shepherd the Church, as Christ and the early Apostles led and guarded the Church. This Sunday is appropriately called “Good Shepherd Sunday,” due to the Gospel from St. John chapter 10. Today is the eclipsed feast day of St. Catherine of Siena in the old calendar. In line with today's sermon, it is worth noting the seven things that God the Father told St. Catherine of Siena would restore the Catholic Church in times of [...]
