On episode #178, I spoke with Fr. Ken Geraci about the need for Divine Mercy. Here are some key questions and topics from our discussion:

  • Why Fr. Ken believes Jesus appeared to St. Faustina when He did
  • The need for Divine Mercy today
  • Divine Mercy Sunday. What is that? 
  • I should be praying the chaplet of divine mercy every single day. Why?

And much more...

Tune in for an insightful conversation!

Biography:

Fr. Ken Geraci, CPM, lived the life of the prodigal son for most of his young adult life. Raised in a nominally Catholic family, who only lived the externals of the faith, Fr. Ken left the Catholic Church for many years. During that time he earned a business degree and worked as a business profession in Advanced R&D and software testing; a few years into his career he joined a few of his co-workers in establishing a $4.5 million Internet software company. Focused on money, fitness, and success, he made little room for God; but God did not give up on him. During this journey, God presented him with challenges that forced him to question his personal beliefs and the question “What is Truth?” Through a series of conversions, years of struggle, study and questioning, Fr. Ken found his way from agnosticism, to non-denominational Christianity, and ultimately back to the Catholic Church.

Fr. Ken joined the Fathers of Mercy in 2006 and was ordained in 2012. For two years, he served as an associate pastor of a medium sized parish and currently serves as a Missionary, webmaster and vocation director for the Fathers of Mercy. Fr. Ken has a great understanding of the personal and societal pressures that individuals face and knows what it is like to “hate coming to church.” His mission talks are for people of all levels of faith; from those who are madly in love with Jesus to those who struggle with church and religion.

Fr. Geraci is the author of two books, “Why Be Catholic” published 2021 by TAN Books and “Spiritual Warfare & Divine Mercy” publishing in late 2023.
