Guard What Was Given: Protecting the Eucharist The Eucharist is not merely a ritual. It is the Body, Blood, Soul, and Divinity of Jesus Christ — the source and summit of the Christian life. And yet, in an age of widespread indifference, sacrilege, and a shocking loss of belief in the Real Presence, the question must be asked: Who is standing guard? In this episode, we go deep into what it truly means to protect the Eucharist — not just as a devotional act, but as a spiritual battle. From the words of Jesus Himself in John 6 — "my flesh is true food, and my blood is true drink" — to the stark warning of St. Paul that receiving unworthily means being "guilty of the body and blood of the Lord" (1 Cor 11:27), Scripture does not treat the Eucharist casually. Neither should we.

Protecting the Eucharist

Today, I'm chatting with my wonderful hubby about marriage as we celebrate 20 years of marriage this month! Praise the Lord! 🙌❤️ We've shared so many beautiful moments and walked through some really difficult ones—through sickness and health, joy and sorrow, good times and bad. Through it all, we've learned to cling to the Cross and rely on sacramental grace. Join us for an honest and heartfelt conversation about the joys, challenges, lessons, and grace that have carried us through two decades of marriage. Here's to 20 years—and to the Lord who has been faithful through it all!
