Today Deacon Peter Bergkamp joins us to talk about his brother Brian, who 10 years ago was a seminarian nearing ordination when he died while saving another's life in a tragic accident on the Arkansas River. We share what we remember of him, the days surrounding his passing, and the impact his example of life and death continues to have on us today.

Enjoy the rest of Fr. Raymund's vocation story, including about how it all (possibly) started at West Acres bowling alley.

Today we welcome in Fr. Raymund Snyder, O.P. to hear about his experience studying and now teaching in Rome and game days as a member of the Notre Dame marching band. Finally, he gives big time Dominican energy as he specifies and explains the beginnings of his vocation story as he grew up in Wichita. Tune in next week to hear the rest.

Today we welcome in Fr. Miles Swigart for a wild ride of a conversation, which includes how he chose seminary over a promising dance career and the tale of how Nickelback quite possibly saved his faith and vocation.

We are happy to be joined by Fr. Lawrence Carney to hear about his unique mission seeking out lost souls as he walks the streets of Wichita and traveling the world to preach about the Holy Face of Jesus. Finally, he shares his vocation story.

Today we welcome in Fr. Jason Borkenhagen to share about his priestly life and his experience of studying in Rome and writing his doctoral thesis on St. Thomas Aquinas and the priesthood. Then, he recounts his vocation story and how a fwe simple invitations led him from wanting a family with 20 kids to the ordained priesthood.

Fr. Ken Schuckman joins the studio to talk about what retirement is like as a priest and a recent pilgrimage to Medjugorje. Then he recounts the story of the Lord leading him in and out of high school seminary, through a broken engagement and ultimately to a mature and authentic call to priestly life.

We start off by throwing around ideas for the one question we'd ask Pope Leo if given the chance. Then we dive into a conversation on conversation: why small talk is important, methods for maintaining and directing conversation and, finally, our hot takes on cussing.

We are delighted to have two Marian Sisters join us to talk about their recent experience with the Feast for Fiat as well as sharing memories from different milestone moments in their religious life, including chopping off their hair and performing plays written about sisters in honor of their first vows. Then Sr. Abigail Marie shares her vocation story.

Today we sit down to talk with Fr. David Marstall about his (in)famous dog Osa, mountain climbing, priestly transitions, and how his call to the priesthood began with a deal made with God to get into the middle school band.
