The Quest Atlanta Catholic Radio

The Our Father is a powerful weapon against the principalities and powers of this present darkness.

Segment 1: St. Peter’s Chair and the Church’s Enduring AuthorityYesterday was the Feast of the Chair of St Peter. Since the Reformation, we have seen what happens when a church “unhooks” itself from the authority of the Church and tries to go on its own. We discuss the feast and the Church’s enduring authority with Doug Keck.

Segment 2: The Marxist Weaponization of Matthew 25 Today’s Gospel foretells the division of the Sheep and the Goats. Jesus praises those who have fed the hungry, doctored the sick, and housed the homeless while condemning those who have not. Some progressives use this passage as a “moral trump card” to argue that doctrine and dogma do not matter, for in the end all that matters is our humanitarian gestures. Marcus breaks it down.

Segment 3: From Dust to Glory: Humanity’s Origin, Fall, & Redemption in Christ (2 segments)

The Lenten season parallels all of human history. Man began as dust in the Garden, and we begin our Lenten journey with Jesus in the dust of the desert. We discuss this journey from dust to glory with Matt Ramage.

“How can we cooperate with the grace of Lent to work on healing our relationships?” This question opens a discussion on the importance of reconciliation during this sacred season. Additional topics include navigating family dynamics with a 22-year-old son who struggles with respect and addressing the challenges of processing grief amid loss.

A Surrender Prayer from St. John Henry Newman

I sacrifice to Thee this cherished wish, this lust, this weakness, this scheme, this opinion: make me what Thou wouldest have me; I bargain for nothing; I make no terms; I seek for no previous information whither Thou art taking me; I will be what Thou wilt make me, and all that Thou wilt make me. Amen
