Prepare to celebrate the feast day of Our Lady of Fatima on Saturday by listening to one our favorite episodes! Travel back in time to the year 1917...the world was at war for the first time and millions had been killed. Terror and heartbreak seized hearts across the world. Until something extraordinary happened in the most unlikely of places. In the small, humble village of Fatima, three shepherd children carried out a message from Our Lady that changed everything.

Parental Guidance Note: At minute 19:40 we delicately and quickly describe the vision of Hell the three children of Fatima witnessed. Pre-screen if necessary at your discretion. We did our best to capture the entirety of Our Lady's message while understanding many young ears will be listening.

"Why must we suffer? Because here below pure Love cannot exist without suffering. O Jesus, Jesus, I no longer feel my cross when I think of yours." 
- St. Bernadette

Come listen to the incredible conclusion of Saint Bernadette’s story! The inexplicable healing of Catherine Latapie’s hand was only the beginning of the miracles that would pour forth from Lourdes. But Bernadette would have to endure much more before the truth was accepted: threats from the chief inspector, skepticism from hundreds and the disappointment of Abbe Peyramale. Through it all, Bernadette persevered in carrying out Our Lady’s message for the town of Lourdes and the whole world.

– St. Josemaria Escriva

Happy Valentine's day! We hope you enjoy this encore presentation of St. Valentine!

"So faith, hope and love abide, these three; but the greatest of these is love." 
-1 Corinthians 13:13

Little beyond legend is known of the patron of the greatest theological virtues: love. Saint Valentine has a secular "Hallmark" holiday in his honor, but in today's inspirational episode, his life as a Roman of heroic devotion is given depth and meaning. It is no stretch to claim that family as it was ordained by God is threatened at every turn in our modern culture. Listen to hear how Saint Valentine challenged a great threat to the love and strength of the family so very long ago. This Valentine's Day, embark with us into the history of the catacombs, squirm under the accusations of an evil emperor, and witness the painful beauty of sacrificial love!
