  • The Catechism in a Year (with Fr. Mike Schmitz) - Day 136: Questions of Resurrection (2026)

    Together, with Fr. Mike, we unpack some of the questions surrounding the resurrection of the dead. The Catechism clarifies who, how, and when each person will rise from the dead, body and soul. We also examine how we are already somewhat in participation with Christ’s death and resurrection through our Baptism. Today’s readings are Catechism paragraphs 997-1004.

    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.

  • Catholic Answers Live - #12720 What are Near Death Experiences? NDEs, Purgatory, and Souls - Jimmy Akin

    “What are Near Death Experiences?” This question opens a discussion on near-death experiences and the nature of the soul. The conversation also addresses critiques of NDE content, the concept of purification in the afterlife as described by Father Nathan Castle, and intriguing thoughts on the relationship between soul and brain in hypothetical scenarios.

    Questions Covered:

    • 00:55 – What do you say to critics of your content on NDEs, who say that it understates the skeptical research in the academic NDE literature?
    • 18:50 – What do you think of the way purification seems to occur in Father Nathan Castle’s afterlife accounts? It would seem that rather than experiencing a “painful” and “fiery” purification as often depicted in pious stories and prayers about purgatory over the centuries, the souls essentially just learn new things and gradually correct their misunderstandings and errors, including needing to come to grips with their past sins and their effects on others. The idea that angels, saints and deceased relatives all get involved at different points along the journey of purification of souls and to help them move to a new level really appeals to me.
    • 36:17 – If two individuals had their brains swapped, would their soul remain in their original bodies? Or if it stayed, how would the mismatched soul/brain experience consciousness?
    • 46:01 – My wife is utterly convinced that all lizards including and especially the dinosaurs used to be dragons and wings were the limbs mentioned in Genesis when God punished the serpent. Note that most modern-day lizards although they do have legs still scurry around on their bellies because of their wide stance.

    • Ave Maria in the Afternoon Full Hours - May 15, 2026 - Hour 2

      Segment 1: “Why are you standing, looking up at the sky?” (2 segments)

      This Sunday we celebrate the Feast of the Ascension. Throughout the readings, we see a constant theme of the Enthronement of Christ. We unpack the readings with Rob Corzine.

      Segment 2: Exploring Mary’s Pivotal Role from Age to Age (2 segments)

      The Virgin Mary’s part in history doesn’t begin and end with her yes to God. She is at the center of history from creation to the end of time and everywhere in between. Mike Aquilina joins us to explore the many ways the mother of humanity has left her mark on the great events of time, not only as we see them in the Bible, but also in pivotal events such as Fatima, the battle of Lepanto, and the plague.
