Lent is all about purification that our love for the Lord might deepened and animated by the Holy Spirit. Christianity should be a life changing encounter with Jesus which results in an adventure and not just behavior modification. The talk portion of this vodcast was originally aired on the Catholic Television Network of Detroit. It was truly a joy giving this talk in the TV studio. The entire interview can be viewed here: http://youtu.be/jOMRKdJrs-0 I ask you to share this vodcast with a loved...

Before the beginning of time, God had the Church in mind as the means through which He would reconcile humanity back to Himself. The Church is the seed of the Kingdom on earth. Jesus gave His Church four marks or signs that we might be able to discover her in the twenty first century. The four marks are One, Holy, Catholic, and Apostolic. These marks are presented in rapid fire succession (13min including intro and song). Hold on to your seat-belts as we journey through the process of identifyin...

One of the most misunderstood teachings of the Church is about the Pope. About eight years ago, I can remember working as an accountant in my cubicle and being challenged by a co-worker. Ave Maria Radio was on and some speaker mentioned the "Holy Father." My co-worker paused her work to comment on how she did not appreciate some man being called "Holy Father" when there is only one Holy Father, God the Father. I proceeded to try to explain to her the significance of the Pope and his title of "Ho...

Does the Church really teach that there is no salvation outside of her? In a world relativism, this supposed teaching definitely goes against the grain. What does the Church really teach on this topic? Where do we go to find out what the Church teaches on salvation? Please watch and find answers!

My testimony is not a credit to me but praise of the work of God in me.

May the souls of all the faithful departed rest in peace, especially Dr. Monica Mouton Sanders.

The seed of the Kingdom of God on earth is the Church. The Church is not just another social club! Jesus' presence in the world today is manifested through His body, the Church. Mother Church has two natures in correspondence to Christ who also has two natures. Let us explore the mystical Body of Christ and leave behind the world of opinion.

Jesus intends for us to have a spiritual mother! Will you be like the apostle John? Will you take Mary into your home (heart)? Mary was the first to say yes to the Incarnation. Her receptivity is the perfect model for what it means to be church. Her soul magnifies the Lord leads us to her Son. Please listen with an open heart and leave a positive comment.

God is with us! The world has been forever changed with the coming of the long awaited Messiah. As Steve Ray says, Jesus' coming was so prominent it struck time, dividing it into B.C. and A.D.! Where are we going and why are we here? These are the questions that have baffled everyone throughout human history. The Father sends the Son in order to answer those questions and more importantly to give abundant life.

At Christmas time as a theology instructor, I always get the question about the dating of Jesus' birth. This vodcast will deal with the year of Jesus' birth. Christ's identity will also be explored given that the dogma of the Incarnation is central to Christmas. Who Jesus is and what He is has been revealed in the deposit of faith, and as Christians we should be able to clearly understand and articulate it. At times unknowingly, Christians find themselves professing various heresies around the i...

The Solemnity of the Immaculate Conception is a truth revealed by God and defined by His Mystical Body, the Church. Often times, the Virginal Conception of Jesus gets labeled as the Immaculate Conception. The Immaculate Conception refers to Mary being conceived without any stain from Original Sin. Mary also remained sinless for the rest of her life! This teaching is often contested by non-Catholic Christians. Can this teaching be rooted in the Sacred Scripture? Do Catholics overstep their bounds...

Have you ever been asked the question, “Are you born again?” Being born again is essential to being a Christian, but the phrase must be properly understood. Many Christians label being “born again” as an adult experience where a personal decision has been made for Christ. That personal decision is a must in any Christian’s life, but unfortunately that decision alone gets labeled “being born again.” “Being born again” or “from above” is scriptural language, yet many people are surprised at what t...

Jesus Christ is the most influential and dominant person in world history. People often forget that Jesus was also a very controversial figure. The controversy came from a true understanding of his claims. Jesus claimed to be God! Today in the 21st century, Jesus is presented as a person that everyone loves even if they do not believe He is God. Somehow, people have to get back in touch with who Jesus claimed to be. When this claim is honestly dealt with, Jesus simply cannot be a nice person tha...

As Christians, we sometimes focus all of our attention on the New Testament given that Christ is explicitly revealed there. This one-sided approach to the Sacred Scripture does us a great disservice. St. Augustine, a north African Church Father, informs us that the New Testament is hidden in the Old and the Old Testament is revealed in the New. All of the written word of God testifies to the Word of God, Christ Jesus. This vodcast will cover typology which is an excellent way of keeping the Old ...

If God is all good and all-powerful, why is there still evil and suffering in the world? This question has stirred the minds of all human beings. This vodcast takes a look at this perennial question. During our exploration, we will grow in our understanding of Original Sin and authentic freedom. Hopefully, we will come realize that the answer to why there is evil and suffering is not something that can be grasped by human beings alone. Let’s dive into this hot topic! Remember, a positive review ...

One of the greatest and most unique elements of the deposit of faith is Sacred Scripture. It is the voice of God through human words. Sacred Scripture is the soul of theology, and to ignore it is to ignore Christ: "Ignorance of Scripture is ignorance of Christ" -St. Jerome. This vodcast takes the time to lay down some foundational principles that should always be kept in mind when reading the Bible. Sacred Scripture is nothing less than God's love letter written to us and it would be a tragedy t...

Can you hear the voice of The Lord? This is the voice of goodness, truth, and beauty. This is the voice of eternal life, the only satisfying reality. To hear that voice is to experience the answer to every real question. Jesus is still alive and has left a way to hear from Him in the 21st century. Listen to the 4th episode of Truth Still Matters to find out! Please leave a positive review to encourage others to watch!

Pope Emeritus Benedict XVI spoke of this current Western culture as "dictatorship of relativism". When everything is reduced to an opinion or preference, our diginity as human beings is effectively lowered. As humans, we crave the truth and nothing else will satisfy. Every human person is made in the image of God destined to receive the Truth. We do not create the truth through our belief. Our belief receives that which already true or false. The whole “I’m okay you’re okay” culture has eroded t...
