This weekend is the Feast of the Baptism of the Lord! We already know everything about Baptism, right? Maybe not! Fr. Tony Klein is with us to explore the first sacrament and entrance into the family of God. What does Baptism do? Why was Jesus baptized if he is God? Get answers to those questions and more!

Do teachers really have an impact on their students? Yes! Kari Hettinger, a teacher from St. Mary School in Dell Rapids, shares who influenced her to become a Catholic school teacher and how her faith informs her work. Join us to hear her story!

You’ve heard Bishop DeGrood talk about missionary discipleship and that everyone can (and should) be doing it. Then you remember that it’s scary and you don’t know how! Maybe Fr. Michael Kapperman can help! He joins us to offer an easy way ANYONE can evangelize: near peer discipleship. What? Trust us, this is like a little brother looking up to his big brother and wanting to be “just like him.” Join us to learn this discipleship method and hear how it’s working in our diocese.

It’s almost Christmas, and our gift to you is a chat with Bishop DeGrood! He joins us to tell us about his travels, the beauty and spiritual depth he is seeing in our Confirmation candidates, and how to be joyful this Christmas. Grab your coffee or tea and hang out with us for a little while!

What happens when our Blessed Mother steps into the dreams of someone who hates the Catholic Church? Conversion! Blake DeVries tells the story of his conversion from very anti-Catholic to on fire for the faith. This young man’s story continues to inspire other young men and women in our diocese to consider the Catholic faith. Beware: Blake’s love of Christ is contagious!

It’s the most wonderful time of the year: Christmas at the Cathedral time! Mark Conzemius and soloist Carlos Santiago join us for a sneak peak at this year’s concert. During our conversation, we get an unexpected and most beautiful story from Carlos about his dad and his singing career. This is the perfect way to begin the Advent season!
