The Conor Gallagher Show

Joshua Charles of Eternal Christendom joins Conor to expose the history and ideology behind Freemasonry, the Church’s warnings about secret societies, the Great Apostasy and the “mystery of iniquity,” and the growing rejection of the supernatural in Western society. They also examine the Founding Fathers, the decline of Christendom, the possibility of a Third Temple and the Antichrist, and what Catholics should make of the spiritual battle unfolding around them. This conversation will give you a sobering look at the spiritual forces behind the attacks on Holy Mother Church—and the coming trials for which all Catholics must prepare.

St. Thérèse of Lisieux is remembered as the “Little Flower,” yet beneath the flowers was a surprisingly intense spirituality of suffering, sacrifice, and radical love. Fr. Joseph Spence goes beyond the familiar image of Thérèse to uncover the profound spirituality behind her Little Way: from her confidence in God’s mercy and her willingness to suffer for love, to her battle against scrupulosity and fear, and her deep spousal relationship with Jesus Christ. This episode will show you a Thérèse whose spirituality is far more profound and intensive than you ever realized.

Is the Church quietly undermining the permanence of marriage by making annulments too easy? Conor sits down with author John Clark to examine the Church’s modern “annulment culture,” asking whether marriage is truly being treated as the sacrament it is. They discuss the rise of annulments, changes to the Church’s tribunal process, the suffering of abandoned spouses, and the historical defense of marriage from Catherine of Aragon to Humanae Vitae. Tune in for an impassioned defense of the permanence of marriage—and a challenge to the Church to recover the sacramental vision of marriage that has been lost in the modern annulment culture.
