The Anti-Mary is a Spirit Not a Person with Carrie Gress - Ep065
October 17, 2019 22:12 - 1 hour - 57.1 MBThis is not your typical interview with Carrie Gress about her book The Anti-Mary Exposed.

We reveal the issue and offer the answer, the Blessed Virgin Mother. Also, we are reaching out our hands and hearts to offer healing and encouragement for th...

In this episode, I am NOT preaching school choice -- that choice is a specific privilege for each family. Rather, I do share that what God has shown me, how he has consoled me, and the ways he has h...

April 30, 2018 01:45 - 37 minutes - 52.4 MBYoga, Enneagram, New Age, Mindfulness. Every time these topics came up as one to address, it always came with a huge hesitation.

Episode 37: Christopher West – Part 2
February 19, 2018 01:34 - 41 minutes - 57.9 MBThis sin of objectification is truly hurting us all, men and women alike. Women have been taught they can use their body to manipulate others and men have been sold the lie that they are just naturally lustful and are hopeless to change.

Indeed, the others were that also which Peter was; but a primacy is given to Peter, whereby it is made clear that there is b...
Episode 26: The Church – Deacon Harold Burke-Sivers
October 30, 2017 01:00 - 55 minutes - 77.4 MBWhy is the Catholic Church who She says She is? When Paul wrote to Timothy in Chapter 3 of 1 Timothy, why did he tell him that “the church” was the pillar and foundation of truth and it would tell how one ought to behave in the household of God?

October 23, 2017 02:04 - 52 minutes - 73.2 MBThis is our final episode of peeling back the onion of the father wound.
