  • Did Jesus always know that he was God, or did he acquire that knowledge at some point during his childhood or adolescence? Were there things that Jesus didn't know when he was on earth? Did he know what was going to happen in the future? Was Jesus ever tempted to sin, or to despair?

    In this episode, we discuss the incredible mystery of the hypostatic union: Jesus as fully God and fully human.

  • Every. Single. Mass. Is a miracle. Eucharistic miracles remind us of that fact.

    In this episode, we discuss four amazing incidents, three of which occurred in the last thirty years. In each of these miracles, a communion host transformed into human tissue: specifically, into tissue taken from a living human heart that was in agony. Each of these miraculous hosts has been rigorously scientifically tested, often by scientists who had no idea where the samples they were testing had come from. These stories remind us of the loving and true presence of Jesus Christ in the Eucharist.

  • Pope Francis has just announced that Blessed Carlo Acutis is going to be the first millenial saint. Carlo Acutis was an ordinary teenager who died suddenly at the age of 15. He was known for his love of God, and in particular for his love for Jesus Christ, truly present in the Eucharist. Carlo loved soccer, animals, nutella, gaming, and coding. His exhibition on Eucharistic miracles is still touring the world, and his website is still available today.

    In this episode, we discuss the life of Carlo Acutis, as part of our two-part series on Eucharistic miracles.

    In this episode, we discuss interior freedom.

  • St. Gianna Beretta Molla was born in 1922. As a young woman, she wanted to be a missionary but eventually saw that God was calling her to marriage and family life. She became a pediatrician, and she and her husband Pietro had three children. They lived a full and joyful life. When she was pregnant with her fourth child, she was diagnosed with a benign tumour in her uterus. After refusing any treatment that would take the life of her child, she gave birth to a healthy baby girl, before dying of complications from the birth eight days later, at the age of 39.

    St Gianna is the patron saint of mothers, doctors, and unborn children.

  • The appearance of Our Lady at Fátima in 1917 was one of the most incredible and significant events of the twentieth century. In these apparitions, Mary encouraged the world to pray the rosary, and to pray for peace, poor sinners, and the pope. She also performed one of the most mind-blowing miracles you'll ever hear about.

    In this episode, we finish our discussion of the apparitions at Fátima.

    The Fátima prayer:
    Oh my Jesus, forgive us our sins, save us from the fires of hell. Bring all souls to heaven, especially those who most need your mercy.
