  • The Catechism in a Year (with Fr. Mike Schmitz) - Day 151: The Seven Sacraments (2026)

    The Catechism introduces the seven sacraments that Christ offers the Church: Baptism, Confirmation, Eucharist, Reconciliation, Anointing of the Sick, Holy Orders, and Matrimony. The Catechism highlights the fact that the sacraments are “by the Church” because the Church is “Christ’s action at work”, and they are “for the Church” because they “manifest and communicate to men…the mystery of communion with the God who is love.” Fr. Mike focuses on the fact that while ministerial priests administer many of the sacraments, their priesthood is at the service of the baptismal priesthood, into which all of the baptized are ordained. Today’s readings are from Catechism paragraphs 1113-1121.

    This episode has been found to be in conformity with the Catechism by the Institute on the Catechism, under the Subcommittee on the Catechism, USCCB.

  • The Catholic Cafe - The Ordinary Feasts
    As we leave the very busy and spiritually powerful Easter Season and enter into Ordinary Time, it is vital that we remember that the Easter Mysteries are supposed to empower us for the days ahead, not tired us and convince us we need a rest. We must avoid the temptation to hibernate in our faith and wait until the next big season of the Church.

  • Vatican Insider - Vatican Insider 053026 Frank and Mary Frost Teilhard de Chardin pt 1
    It was a very big and important week here, especially with the presentation on Monday May 25 of Pope Leo’s first encyclical Magnifica humanitas. I’ll look at that, of course, but now just a line about my special guests in the interview segment – Frank and Mary Frost, film producers whom I met not long ago in Rome at the screening of one of their premier documentaries “Teilhard, Visionary Scientist.” That’s French Jesuit scientist, paleontologist and scholar, Pierre Teilhard de Chardin. A truly amazing story!
    We met again at Georgetown University when I was in Washington, D.C. earlier this month, and spoke about their work and this documentary in particular as both Frank and Mary feel it is time to introduce Teilhard de Chardin to a new generation.Founded in 1985 by Frank and Mary Frost, Frank Frost Productions is, as their site says, an award-winning film and television production company dedicated to producing entertaining and informational programming and independent documentaries. More than 100 million viewers have watched over 30 high-caliber FFP documentaries focusing on historical, biographical, cultural, and religious subjects in pursuit of human understanding across cultures, nationalities, and religions.
    What is the Teilhard project and film about?
    In their words: “A captivating human story (Indiana Jones meets Galileo) about scientific adventure (discovery of Peking Man), religious repression, and a love story, with a seemingly tragic end.”

  • Honest To God - Mary's Garden: A Sacred Place to Bloom - Would Mary Wear a Bikini?
    Join us this week on “Honest to God” as we continue our Mary’s Garden: A Sacred Place to Bloom series with a conversation about modesty, dignity, and what it means to reflect authentic femininity in today’s culture. Using the thought-provoking question, “Would Mary Wear a Bikini?” as a starting point, we explore how Catholic women are called not simply to follow trends, but to live with intentionality, self-respect, and a heart rooted in Christ. This episode invites us to move beyond shame or judgment and instead rediscover modesty as something beautiful, freeing, and deeply connected to our identity as daughters of God.

  • The Catechism in a Year (with Fr. Mike Schmitz) - Day 150: The Epiclesis (2026)

    At the heart of the Liturgy of the Eucharist is the epiclesis, when the priest begs the Holy Spirit to come and transform the bread and wine into the Body and Blood, Soul and Divinity of Christ. The Catechism explains this mysterious reality, and Fr. Mike reiterates that the Mass is not a repetition of Christ’s once-and-for-all sacrifice, but a re-presentation and celebration of his eternal sacrifice on the Cross. Today’s readings are Catechism paragraphs 1104-1112.

    This episode has been found to be in conformity with the Catechism by the Institute on the Catechism, under the Subcommittee on the Catechism, USCCB.
