I was born and raised in Birmingham, Alabama during a time when the Civil Rights Movement had made historical progress. But that doesnt mean

that every community was embracing Blacks. Most things were still pretty much segerated, especially in the churches. Most Christians do not realize

the the Southern Baptist Church was founded so that their Clergy could own slaves. Things were slowly changing, but they werent changing at church.

Many Catholics are upset and losing sleep over news and politics both in our Government and the Catholic Church. Many of us are

convinced that everything is corrupt and falling apart in the "Swamp" and at the Vatican, that Satan is in complete control of both!

But for many centuries, your average Catholic lived his life without Social Media & wall to wall media. All he knew was what was going on at his

closest village parish. He took care of his family, protected his village, went to Mass for the Sacraments, probably not knowing or caring about

what was going on in other lands, and had no inkling of who the Pope was, are what Bishops were fussing about in some distant country.

They just took care of what was close to them and made it just fine. Many of us tody need to develope this same toughness and mindset. Special guest this

episode is author Brian Edwards, who has been sharing a lot of insight on this topic.

I think most people think of Jeus as a sweet, tender talking, loving Savior without ever paying attention to the things he actaully said

and did that would probaby get him canceled in todays society and woke media culture.

Our guest today is a military veteren, missionary and is currently in medical school. She's had several amazing experiences in her

life that I wanted to share with you!

My scheduled guest often fail to show up for my show, usually because I had to reschedule haha! So Im try to bring Eric in as a designated

hitter, or backup quarterback when my prefered guest ghosts me. He's one of those Im trying out for Co-Host with now pay and long hours.

Seriously, what excuse do Christians have for not becoming Catholic once their objections are oversome?

There are many Christians out there that do not think that Catholics are really

saved! I used to be one! But what happens when they discover that Catholicism is the Full Expression of Christianity

and that all of their preconceived ideas are wrong?

Then they are faced with what to do with the Truth!

I got a chance to visit with Bryan, a Convert in South Carolina, that I met over on Instagram!

Just wanted to share a word with those of you that are subscribing to the Catholic4rednecks podcast!!!! In other words, this episode is not on YouTube but especially for podcast listeners!!! It’s hard to tell who all listens or subscribes here on the pod because it’s hosted by so many different platforms and there’s not really a place to leave comments and my email crashed, so who all is out here in podcast land is a mystery to me! Doing podcast is my favorite thing and I’ve neglected it until recently with plans to go full speed ahead!

One day at Mass, I started to have a few doubts about my decision to become Catholic, but God winked instantly, and the doubts vanished!

(trigger alert, the gold stamp, that same exact number, was stamped that same number from the factory on every edition of that book)

Just a few words of wisdom from a 60 year old that has worked out all of his life, with nothing to show for it except for painful injuries
