 This week, as we kick off Catholic Schools Week, we dip back into the archives for an interview Fr. Scott did about a year and a half ago with Kevin Weed, the Headmaster of St. Michael Academy, and Larry Rudnicki, the Executive Director of St. Michael Academy.  St. Michael Academy is a Chesterton Academy School located near Petoskey, Michigan, rooted in the Catholic classical tradition.

With the start of a new liturgical year this weekend, we embark on the Gospel of St. Matthew, which is often studied through the lens of typology. So this week we take a look back in our archives to when Fr. Scott gave a talk on this important way to understand Holy Scripture.

As we near the end of the month of November, dedicated to the prayer for the souls in Purgatory, we revisit an episode form earlier this year about Purgatory. The concept of purgatory is a mystery to some, and an obstacle for others, but what exactly is it? Fr. Scott takes time this week to explain the Scriptural basis of purgatory and what the Church has taught over the centuries about this aspect of our Faith.

This week we bring you another talk from the series celebrating 250 Years of Catholicism in the United States. Dcn. Curtis Chambers takes the stage to present on the life of Bishop Frederic Baraga and his personal connection to this future saint of northern Michigan.
