Salt & Light Catholic Radio Podcasts

     "Catholic Counseling" is a weekly segment of Morning Light, where we've assembled a panel of experts to help Catholics maintain good mental health.  Today, from Alliance Family Services in Twin Falls, we welcome the ultimate morning person - Pete Espil!

     Morning Light presents Day 20 of our on-air Consecration to St. Joseph, following the book by Fr. Donald Calloway.  Today, “Joseph Most Obedient, Pray for Us.”  St. Joseph is a model of obedience.  Obedience requires trust.  Lack of trust on the part of our first parents, Adam & Eve, is what caused mankind to fall into sin.  Our new parents, Mary & Joseph, trusted God and were willing to suffer for their obedience to God.  They were certain that God had their best interests in mind.  Everyone needs to be obedient to both natural and divine law and of course everyone should also trust and obey God.

     Morning Light welcomes back John Keenan & Pamila Jaszkowiak from the Idaho Lay Dominicans to continue the study on the Book of Romans...picking up with Chapter 7.

     Morning Light presents "Cooking With Scripture" - a weekly segment hosted by Chef Lou Aaron, owner of the Westside Drive-in and a Deacon at Our Lady of the Rosary parish in Boise.  Today, we indulge on a delicious Monte Cristo sandwich while learning the story of how Jesus drove the money-changers out of the Temple.

     Morning Light welcomes back Susie Johnston, Director of Nazareth Retreat Center, with an update of events this month, and the Lenten menu for Chef Bill's Grab & Go Meals.

      Morning Light presents Day 19 of our on-air Consecration to St. Joseph, following the book by Fr. Donald Calloway.  Today, “Joseph Most Courageous, Pray for Us.”  St. Joseph lived entirely for love of Jesus Christ and, after Mary, is Jesus’ most faithful disciple.  It takes courage to be a faithful disciple of Jesus.  Many are willing to follow when it’s pleasant but not when things become difficult or filled with sorrow.  Joseph was always faithful, always courageous.  He feared nothing other than offending God and exercised tremendous fortitude in his protection of Jesus and Mary.

     March 7th marks the halfway point of 40 Days for Life. Prayer, fasting, peaceful vigil, and community outreach are all aspects of this peaceful prayer-centered approach to ending abortion.

     Morning Light presents Day 18 of our on-air Consecration to St. Joseph, following the book by Fr. Donald Calloway.  Today, “Saint Joseph Most Prudent.”  What is prudence (besides a song by the Beatles)?  In modern times, many people consider it to be a vice or a flaw.  In moral matters, they are quite often called a prude.  However, prudence is a virtue - the Catechism defines it as the virtue that disposes practical reason to discern our true good in every circumstance and to choose the right means of achieving it.  Without prudence, a person will be either too lenient or too harsh.
