We've all had the experience of driving down Main Street in Anytown, USA and seeing church after church of many different types and denominations. Are they ultimately all about the same? Were they all founded or started about the same time? Are they all just different flavors of spiritual ice cream as it were? Join Deacon Jeff and Tom in the Luxurious Corner Booth as they discuss the Catholic Church's approach and reasoned response to the historic splintering of Christianity.

We all make New Year's resolutions. But, do they really change us? Usually not. We end up making some of those same resolutions year after year. So...how do we really and substantially make truly transformative changes in our lives? Join Deacon Jeff and Tom in the Luxurious Corner Booth as they discuss the power and promise - and transformation - Jesus and His Church offer us through the Sacraments.

Many in today's world tend to write off those who are in prison...especially those who are on death row...and forget about them as lost cases.

Has it been a while since your last sacramental Confession? How about 40 years? Join Deacon Jeff and Tom in the Luxurious Corner Booth as they read and discuss a listener's email to The Catholic Cafe recounting their personal journey and (a 40-year experience) back to the confessional!

Do you know where Fatima is? Do you know what happened there? If you were ever curious about Marian apparitions and their role in the Church, this is the show for you.

What are we celebrating in the season of Advent? Many people, even Catholics, tend to gloss over Advent and skip right to Christmas. But, is that right? Join Deacon Jeff and Tom as they discuss taking time during the season of Advent to anticipate the coming of the Christ...especially by contemplating the reasons for the Incarnation.

Unfortunately, there are many Catholics who have refrained from the Sacrament of Reconciliation for a long, long time. There can be many reasons - some better than others - that the People of God might consider not wanting to avail themselves of so generous a gift of grace as Confession. Join Deacon Jeff and Tom in the Luxurious Corner Booth as they ponder the oft-avoided, difficult topic of going back to the confessional after a long absence.

When we read the Bible, we realize we're reading the inspired Word of God. But, what about all the numbers we read about: One, two, three, six, seven, twelve, forty and all the others? Are they inspired? Should we read them literally? Is there some secret knowledge we can gain from understanding the numbers we find in Sacred Scripture? Join Deacon Jeff and Tom in the Luxurious Corner Booth as they pour through the use of numbers in the Bible and the proper Catholic understanding about their significance.
