Today's Topics: 1) Gospel - John 14:27-31a - Jesus said to His disciples: "Peace I leave with you; My peace I give to you. Not as the world gives do I give it to you. Do not let your hearts be troubled or afraid. You heard Me tell you, 'I am going away and I will come back to you.' If you loved Me, you would rejoice that I am going to the Father; for the Father is greater than I. And now I have told you this before it happens, so that when it happens you may believe. I will no longer speak much with you, for the ruler of the world is coming. He has no power over Me, but the world must know that I love the Father and that I do just as the Father has commanded Me."

Today's Topics: 1) Gospel - John 14:21-26 - Jesus said to His disciples: "Whoever has My commandments and observes them is the one who loves Me.

16 May 25 – The Blessed Mother’s Role in the Economy of Salvation

Today's Topics: Gospel - John 2, 1-11 - On the third day there was a wedding in Cana in Galilee, and the mother of Jesus was there. Jesus and His disciples were also invited to the wedding. When the wine ran short, the mother of Jesus said to him, “They have no wine.” And Jesus said to her, “Woman, how does your concern affect me? My hour has not yet come.” His mother said to the servers, “Do whatever he tells you." Now there were six stone water jars there for Jewish ceremonial washings, each holding twenty to thirty gallons. Jesus told them, “Fill the jars with water.” So they filled them to the brim. Then he told them, “Draw some out now and take it to the headwaiter.” So they took it. And when the headwaiter tasted the water that had become wine, without knowing where it came from (although the servers who had drawn the water knew), the headwaiter called the bridegroom and said to him, “Everyone serves good wine first, and then when people have drunk freely, an inferior one; but you have kept the good wine until now.” Jesus did this as the beginning of his signs in Cana in Galilee and so revealed his glory, and his disciples began to believe in him. 1, 2, 3, 4) Father William Wagner, ORC, joins Terry to discuss the Wedding feast at Cana and the role of the Blessed Mother in the Economy of Salvation

14 May 25 – Pope Leo XIV’s Priorities

Today's Topics: 1) Gospel - John 15:9-17 - Jesus said to His disciples: “As the Father loves Me, so I also love you. Remain in My love. If you keep My commandments, you will remain in My love, just as I have kept My Father’s commandments and remain in His love. “I have told you this so that My joy might be in you and your joy might be complete. This is My commandment: love one another as I love you. No one has greater love than this, to lay down one’s life for one’s friends. You are My friends if you do what I command you. I no longer call you slaves, because a slave does not know what his master is doing. I have called you friends, because I have told you everything I have heard from My Father. It was not you who chose Me, but I who chose you and appointed you to go and bear fruit that will remain, so that whatever you ask the Father in My Name He may give you. This I command you:  love one another.” Bishop Sheen quote of the day 2, 3, 4) What are Pope Leo XIV’s priorities and why did he choose that name https://www.lifesitenews.com/opinion/what-are-pope-leo-xivs-priorities-and-why-did-he-choose-that-name/?utm_source=featured-news&utm_campaign=usa

Today's Topics: 1) Gospel - John 10:22-30- The feast of the Dedication was taking place in Jerusalem. It was winter.  And Jesus walked about in the temple area on the Portico of Solomon.  So the Jews gathered around Him and said to Him, “How long are You going to keep us in suspense?  If You are the Christ, tell us plainly.” Jesus answered them, “I told you and you do not believe. The works I do in My Father’s Name testify to Me. But you do not believe, because you are not among My sheep. My sheep hear My Voice; I know them, and they follow Me.  I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish.  No one can take them out of My Hand.  My Father, Who has given them to Me, is greater than all, and no one can take them out of the Father’s Hand.  The Father and I are One.” Memorial of Our Lady of Fatima Our Lady of Fatima, pray for us!

12 May 25 – What Was Pope Leo XIII’s Social Teaching?

Today's Topics: 1) Gospel - John 10:1-10 - Jesus said: “Amen, amen, I say to you, whoever does not enter a sheepfold through the gate but climbs over elsewhere is a thief and a robber. But whoever enters through the gate is the shepherd of the sheep. The gatekeeper opens it for him, and the sheep hear his voice, as the shepherd calls his own sheep by name and leads them out. When he has driven out all his own, he walks ahead of them, and the sheep follow him, because they recognize his voice. But they will not follow a stranger; they will run away from him, because they do not recognize the voice of strangers.” Although Jesus used this figure of speech, the Pharisees did not realize what He was trying to tell them. So Jesus said again, “Amen, amen, I say to you, I am the gate for the sheep. All who came before Me are thieves and robbers, but the sheep did not listen to them. I am the gate. Whoever enters through Me will be saved, and will come in and go out and find pasture. A thief comes only to steal and slaughter and destroy; I came so that they might have life and have it more abundantly.” Bishop Sheen quote of the day 2, 3) Who was Pope Leo XIII, the father of social doctrine? https://catholicreview.org/who-was-pope-leo-xiii-the-father-of-social-doctrine/ 4) What you should know about Saint Augustine and the new Augustinian Pope https://aleteia.org/2025/05/08/what-you-should-know-about-st-augustine-andthe-new-augustinian-pope

09 May 25 – Day Two of Pope Leo XIV, the First American Pope

Day Two Analysis: His First Homily & Urbi et Orbi Message The world is still reeling from the astonishing election of Cardinal Prevost as Pope Leo XIV—an American pontiff taking the name of crusading popes, crowned on the Feast of St. Michael the Archangel. Now, the first words of his papacy have been spoken. What hidden warnings, hopes, or revolutions do they contain? Join us as we dissect his balcony blessing and inaugural homily line-by-line, including: The Michaelite Prophecy: Why his emphasis on spiritual warfare and Our Lady of Pompeii signals a pontificate of divine battle—not just diplomacy. The “Leo” Legacy: How his namesakes (Leo the Great, Leo XIII) hint at coming confrontations with modernity, globalism, or even corruption in the Church. The American Question: Is his election a divine mercy or a trial for the Church? How traditionalists and reformers are already interpreting him. Silences That Speak: What he didn’t say—and why it matters more than the platitudes. Is this the pope who will restore—or the one who will divide? Bring your Rosaries and your discernment. The drama is just beginning.

08 May 25 – The American Pope: Leo XIV

History is made: For the first time, an American—Robert Francis Cardinal Prevost—ascends to the Throne of Peter, taking the name Leo XIV in a nod to the great reforming popes of the past. But as Rome erupts in cheers and whispers, how are Catholics worldwide truly reacting? From traditional Latin Mass devotees to progressive reformers, from the Vatican Curia to the pews of small-town America, this election divides, inspires, and shocks the faithful. Some see divine providence in his choice of name—invoking Leo the Great’s orthodoxy and Leo XIII’s battles against modernity. Others fear an American pope signals a Church bending to political winds. In this episode, we explore: Why "Leo XIV"? The symbolic weight of his name—and what it predicts about his papacy. The American Factor: How global Catholics view a U.S.-born pope—pride, suspicion, or something deeper? Traditionalists vs. Progressives: Will he reconcile the Church’s factions… or deepen the rift? The Prophetic Angle: Conspiracies, signs, and the whispers of St. Malachy’s "last pope" legend. Love him or question him, one thing is clear: This is a pontificate that will shake the world. Tune in for faithful debate, insider insights, and the drama only a papal election can bring.

Today's Topics: 1) Father Charles Murr joins the show from Spain Gospel - John 6:35-40 - Jesus said to the crowds, "I am the Bread of Life; whoever comes to Me will never hunger, and whoever believes in Me will never thirst. But I told you that although you have seen Me, you do not believe.

And this is the will of the One Who sent Me, that I should not lose anything of what He gave Me, but that I should raise it on the last day. For this is the will of My Father, that everyone who sees the Son and believes in Him may have eternal life, and I shall raise him on the last day."
