Have you ever prayed, hoping to hear from God—and heard nothing? Maybe you’ve thought God only speaks rarely, and only through dramatic signs. Today, we’re clearing up those misconceptions with Jonna Schuster, expert in listening prayer and author of Hearing God's Voice: A Catholic Guide to Listening Prayer.

Jonna reminds us of what Scripture says: We are His sheep, and His sheep know His voice. God wants to speak to you—daily. And learning to hear Him is essential for your joy and spiritual growth.

She’s sharing a simple, powerful playbook:

– How to recognize a potential message from God

– How to discern if it’s truly from Him

– And how to respond in a way that bears real fruit and keeps the conversation going

You might be surprised—hearing God’s voice may be more ordinary than you think.

This episode is packed with wisdom that could change your prayer life forever. I’m so honored to welcome Jonna to the show—and after you listen, let us know: What’s God been saying to you lately?

Dinosaurs, owls… and condoms? Yep, those are just a few of the topics sitting side by side on the shelves at your local library. Today I’m joined by “Kitchen Table Activist” Karen England to expose the graphic, sexually explicit content being snuck into school and public libraries—often disguised as kid-friendly cartoons.

These books aren’t approved by parents, but by unelected librarians pushing content that goes far beyond what’s appropriate for children. Watch this episode, get informed, and share it. We need parents nationwide to stand up and protect our kids’ innocence.

Fr. Robert Spitzer is back—and this time, we’re talking UFOs.

Newly declassified footage from Navy pilots shows unidentified craft that defy known physics. Could this point to intelligent alien life?

If so—do they have souls? Free will? Original sin? Would they need salvation? Baptism?

As a priest and expert in the philosophy of science, Fr. Spitzer unpacks the theological implications of extraterrestrial life—and what it would mean for our understanding of creation, redemption, and the uniqueness of humanity.

This is one conversation where faith meets the final frontier.

We’re diving into some of the week’s most disturbing headlines—assisted suicide laws, a brain-dead pregnant mother kept alive for her baby, and a tragic IVF clinic bombing. I’m joined by Dr. Aaron Kheriaty to unpack what these stories reveal about our culture’s view of suffering and the sanctity of life. Together, we challenge the rhetoric driving these narratives and explore what it means to stand for life in a world that fears suffering.

Ryan Bethea, producer, writer, and host of the hit podcast The Exorcist Files, joins me for a fascinating conversation about the supernatural—and what he’s learned after years of studying real-life exorcisms.

As a Protestant, how does he feel about keeping the relic of St. Jude’s arm in his kitchen? Is God still working miracles today, or were those only for the early Church? What does unforgiveness have to do with cases of demonic possession?

This episode will challenge you to be more open to hearing God’s voice—and to consider how spiritual warfare might be closer than we think.

Plus, Ryan shares behind-the-scenes stories from The Exorcist Files and how the series has shaken, strengthened, and stretched the faith of so many.

When Texas Attorney General declared that transgender medical interventions on minors could be child abuse, Texas Children's Hospital claimed it shut down its program. But Dr. Eithan Haim, then a surgical resident, discovered they were secretly implanting puberty blockers. He blew the whistle—and it sparked real change: Texas passed a law banning these procedures on minors. But the story didn’t end there. The Biden DOJ targeted him with lawfare, trying to punish and silence him. Facing a $2 million legal battle, Dr. Haim stood firm. He chose truth over comfort—and became a powerful example for us all.

Lee Strobel was a hard-nosed journalist and proud atheist living for pleasure—until his wife’s sudden conversion sent him on a mission to disprove Christianity once and for all. But the deeper he dug into the historical record—the eyewitnesses, the empty tomb, the early creeds—the more the evidence pointed not to myth, but to fact. In this episode, Strobel shares what shook his skepticism and how his newest book uncovers chilling accounts of angel sightings and Muslim conversions through supernatural visions—reminding us that God is constantly moving, and the unseen realm is more active than we think.

We’ll break down how the conclave works, the rich history behind it, and who the leading contenders are. What will this election mean for the Church—and the entire world? We’ll also explore the origins of papal authority and whether Catholics are bound to obey everything a pope says.

When China’s Cultural Revolution shut down all schools, Dr. Ming Wang’s dream of becoming a doctor should’ve ended. Instead, he beat impossible odds—rising from no formal education to Harvard Medical School. What happened next, sparked by a brutal act against a child, led to a medical breakthrough and a life-changing revelation. His story has inspired two films—and it’s one you’ll never forget.
