This episode of The Latin Prayer Podcast explores Visita, quaesumus, Domine, a traditional night prayer from the Church’s Compline, rich in monastic and scriptural heritage. With deep roots in the Benedictine tradition, this prayer asks God to visit our home, cast out the snares of the enemy, and send His holy angels to guard us through the night.

We unpack each Latin line with clarity and reverence, helping you understand both the vocabulary and the spiritual meaning behind every phrase. Learn how this ancient prayer became a beloved part of Catholic family life, and why it remains a powerful act of trust in God's protection before sleep.

In this episode of The Latin Prayer Podcast, we explore the Maremagnum devotion, often confused with the unauthenticated “9 Prayers.” Instead, we focus on the authentic 7 Prayers of St. Gregory, a powerful set of meditations on the Passion of Jesus Christ. These prayers, preserved in medieval manuscripts and long recommended for Catholic devotion, each reflect on a mystery of Christ’s suffering, death, resurrection, and glory.

Join us in praying this traditional Catholic devotion in English, with structure and context explained. Each prayer is followed by an Our Father and a Hail Mary, guiding the faithful in deeper reflection and love for our Lord’s Passion.

Perfect for Holy Week, First Fridays, or any time you wish to unite with the suffering Christ through Catholic meditations, Latin prayer traditions, and Eucharistic spirituality.

How does God actually define worship in Scripture and the early Church?

Modern Christianity often equates worship with sermons or emotionally moving music, but is this what Scripture and tradition teach?

This catechesis digs deep into the biblical and historical roots of Christian worship. Drawing on the Old Testament sacrificial system, the words of Christ at the Last Supper, and the testimony of the early Church Fathers, we explore the true nature of worship as understood by the apostles and saints.

You’ll learn how worship in the Bible is always sacrificial, culminating in the Eucharist, not preaching. Discover why the Mass is not a Catholic invention but the divinely instituted fulfillment of ancient worship.

This episode provides a rich theological and historical case for why true worship must be centered on the Eucharistic sacrifice, Christ’s body and blood, made present at every Mass.

The Benedictus, or Canticle of Zechariah, is a prophetic hymn from Luke’s Gospel, chanted daily at Lauds.

In this deep dive, we unpack the Benedictus line by line, one of the longest and most theologically rich Latin Learning Guides we've produced. This canticle, spoken by Zechariah after regaining his voice, reveals a sweeping vision of salvation history: from Abraham’s covenant to the coming Messiah.

The Benedictus is not only a lyrical masterpiece but also a catechetical summary of God's mercy, covenant fidelity, and the dawning of redemption. Each Latin phrase is paired with memory hooks and etymological cues to help you or your children learn and reflect deeply.

We’ll explore the symbolic power of terms like "cornu salutis" (horn of salvation), "oriens ex alto" (the dawn from on high), and how Latin reveals the heart of Catholic theology. Whether you're praying the Divine Office or deepening your scriptural devotion, this episode offers clarity and context.

This YouTube Catechesis (YTC) tackles a foundational question in Marian theology: If all have sinned, how can Mary be sinless? Beginning with Romans 3:23 and Luke 1:28, we dive into the original Greek of kecharitōmenē, a unique and singular title that reveals her identity as one who has been fully and permanently graced.

We walk through scriptural passages often misunderstood, including Gabriel's greeting, Elizabeth’s Spirit-filled proclamation, and Christ’s own words in Luke 11:27. We explore Old Testament typology (Mary as the New Ark of the Covenant) and the imagery of Revelation 12 to affirm Mary’s singular vocation in salvation history.

This episode also addresses objections, clarifies common misreadings, and concludes with the patristic witness to Mary as the New Eve, emphasizing that to lose sight of her is to miss the radical truth of the Incarnation itself.

In this Latin Learning episode, we explore The Apostles' Creed line-by-line, decoding each Latin phrase with its theological depth and historical context. Known as the Old Roman Symbol, the Creed emerged amidst early Church heresies and solidified by the 4th century. Though not penned directly by the apostles, it embodies their proclamation, serving as a baptismal confession across centuries.

From “Credo in Deum” to “Vitam Aeternam,” we examine each phrase’s etymology and show how it was designed to protect orthodoxy and instruct converts. This guide helps listeners, families, and catechists grasp not only vocabulary but why every word was deliberately chosen to affirm truth and refute error.
