We couldn’t get him to name any names, but we did get Jimmy Akin to explain what the Bible has to say about the nature of the anti-Christ. Without doubt many will be surprised by just how little the anti-Christ is mentioned in the Bible, and that it is probably more accurate to talk about “anti-Christs.”

Modern governments sometimes demand that entire populations participate in this program or that, which, quite naturally for Christians, regularly raises the question of the Mark of the Beast. So, what is this mysterious mark? Jimmy Akin joins us to give us some insights into how we can identify it.

Taking our cue from his new book Real Religion, we asked Father Jeffery Kirby to explain a distinction he makes between the religion of self-help and the religion of the Bible.

Today is a follow-up from my last episode where I shared a perspective of the Cross.  Remember, we have a humble God. May, Christ strengthen us as we enter into the Triduum.

Do you really trust in Jesus' plan for your life? Or are you sometimes struggling with where you are and circumstances in your life?

The statistics are staggering. Sunday Mass attendance has been in decline for decades. Now projected numbers indicate that the numbers may further diminish as consequence of the long-term pandemic restrictions. Our bishops and priests can only do so much to bring the faithful back to the sacraments. Now more than ever, the Church needs heroic Catholics who will lead the way back by their faith and example. Will you be one of them?

You may have heard of RCIA, but what is it?  It stands for the Rite of Christian Initiation for Adults, and author Charles Johnston joins me today to discuss what happens in this process.  We discuss the various rites to expect and what to do, and what not to do, as a participant.  He also gives us some useful tips after the process is done to keep learning the faith.

Today we welcome Catholic children’s book author Theresa Kiser.

Theresa is the author of the upcoming Our Sunday Visitor picture book, Arthur the Clumsy Altar Server Serves His First Mass (A Book about Serving God); as well as the board book A Little Catholic's Book of Liturgical Colors, which received the Catholic Writer's Guild Seal of Approval for authentically Catholic content, and the pre-teen fantasy series, The Manakor Chronicles, which received the 2016 IPPY Award for Best Juvenile Fiction and is ripe with subtle Catholic symbolism and themes. Theresa is also a speaker, book coach, and the host of a Catholic-themed writing contest at her website, theresakiser.com.

Her quote comes from C.S. Lewis:

“Since it is so likely that children will meet cruel enemies, let them at least have heard of brave knights and heroic courage.”
