  • Ave Maria in the Afternoon Full Hours - May 5, 2026 - Hour 2

    Segment 1: The Desecration of Marriage

    Marriage is sacred, but it is sacred for the work it does. Too many people think that they are preserving the sanctify of marriage by not doing the work that marriage asks them to do. As a result, marriage is treated as a holy relic or sacred knick-knack instead of a sacrament imbued with the power to make saints. Dr. Greg Popcak joins us.

    Segment 2: National Debt matches 100% of GDP

    Earlier this spring, the US National Debt exceeded 100% of the country’s Gross Domestic Product. James Peregoy of the Ave Maria Mutual Funds gives his analysis on this and other economic news and reflects on investing from a Catholic perspective.

    Segment 3: Pope Leo XIV and His Plan to Heal the Church (2 segments)

    When Cardinal Robert Prevost was introduced as the first American-born pope, he was virtually unknown. From his opening statement “peace be with you,” he has seemingly made it his mission to heal divisions within the Church and the world. Paul Kengor, author of a definitive new biography on the pope, joins us.

  • Catholic Answers Live - #12704 Why Do Catholics Believe in Baptism? Infant Baptism and More - Karlo Broussard

    “Why do Catholics believe in baptism?” This question opens a discussion on the significance of baptism in Catholic faith, addressing how Catholics understand being born again through this sacrament. Other topics include navigating relationships with family in the SSPX, the role of evangelism for new converts, and the interpretation of 1 Peter 3:21 regarding baptismal regeneration.

    Questions Covered:

    • 01:45 – Why do Catholics believe we are born again at baptism, and how do we answer Protestants who deny it?
    • 06:50 – I’m a convert and I have family who are SSPX and they say that its wrong for me to go to my church. How do I navigate this and why do they believe this?
    • 13:51 – What do Catholics believe about evangelism? I’m about to be confirmed and am wondering what God will expect of me.
    • 20:53 – 1 Peter 3:21 says baptism now saves you. But it seems like the later part of that verse would contradict the Catholic view of baptismal regeneration.
    • 29:25 – I’m married and considering becoming a permanent deacon. I am too young for the program now, but what can I do to form myself now before I am eligible for the program at age 35?
    • 33:47 – Why is artificial insemination a sin?
    • 41:15 – John 3:5 says nobody can enter the kingdom of heaven unless they are born of water and the spirit. How does this square with Genesis 2:4-7, which seems to describe a baptism of Adam. Adam was already in the kingdom, so why would he need baptism?
    • 46:20 – Why does the Catholic Church practice infant baptism? Shouldn’t it be later like with confirmation?
