"I suddenly knew that I had invited something bad into my home. It knocked and I would splash holy water at it. It would move and knock again. I said, I am a child of God, and you have got to go! "

---------

In this episode of Touched by Heaven, I talk with Ashley, who grew up Catholic but found it all a bit… boring.

In her search for something deeper, she stumbled into the New Age. Ashley bought and read all that she could about—crystals, tarot, mediums. What followed was a spiritual darkness—things moving and knocking in the night, a daughter tormented by unseen forces, and chaos in her home.

Everyone said she just needed a good cleansing… but something told her otherwise. It was time to go back. With a rosary in hand, a little help finding a miraculous medal from St. Anthony, and one powerful confession, everything changed. But how? Let Ashley tell you.

"God put on my heart to go for a walk every day for 100 days. And, to journal what happened along the way. I had no idea what it would lead to!"

----------

Hi, Trapper Jack here. Ever get that weird nudge from God that makes zero sense? Like, "Hey, go do this totally random thing"—with no instructions, no context, and definitely no heavenly user manual? Yeah, Cindy got one of those.

God told her to walk. Every day. For 100 days. Talk to strangers. Be encouraging. Journal about it. That's it. Write. Rinse. Repeat.

Then came the next divine plot twist—write for 15 minutes a day. Cindy was to look at her journal and add that which the Holy Spirit delivered. She was faithful and disciplined. And suddenly, it became a book called, "GUT, God Uttering Truths."

Turns out, those so-called random sidewalk chats. Not so random. God had a plan.

Obedience is more important than understanding. This episode is your reminder that obedience often makes more sense looking back than it does in the moment. God says, "Trust Me," and Cindy did. One step at a time.

The soundtrack that plays in Trapper's head has been uncomfortable. God seems to be revealing His opinion on a topic Trapper would rather not discuss.

----------

Hi! Trapper Jack here. I've heard a bazillion opinions out there on the papacy of Pope Francis, and what is about to come with Pope Leo. In this episode, we might have the opinion of the only One that matters.

It's time to finally crawl out of the belly of the whale—seaweed hairdo and all. Like Jonah, I tried to outrun a message God wanted delivered. I figured if I stayed vague enough, maybe no one would throw me overboard. Spoiler: they did. From lightning strikes and Pachamama to a certain musical that wouldn't leave my head, is it possible that God wants to give you His thoughts on what has ended, and what has begun? The signs are everywhere. Sometimes, the prophet needs a push… or a whale.

Andrew, an atheist, cried out to God, "Help me if you are real. If you are really there, please show me." God answered.

----------

Hi! Trapper Jack here. What if the voice that led you to God… wasn't even sure God existed?

Today's guest, Andrew, thought he was an atheist — just like his dad. Then one day, while listening to a Joe Rogan episode, he hears Canadian psychologist, Jordan Peterson. A man not preaching. Not quoting Scripture. Just speaking the truth. A truth so raw, so honest, and so needed — about suffering, about Christ, about living as if God is real — that something inside Andrew cracks open.

Peterson isn't a pastor. He doesn't claim to be a believer. But he points to Christ as the highest ideal. He says He's the one to model your life after. And that kind of message — coming from someone outside the Church — somehow hit Andrew right in the soul. Because for the first time, he didn't feel preached at… he felt invited.

So, there's Andrew, driving down the road, praying. Not because he believes in God… but because he wants to. "God, if You're real — show me." That moment became the turning point of his life.

This episode is about the unexpected bridges God uses. And sometimes, He builds them with voices that don't even know they're echoing heaven.

"From my passenger seat, I literally grab the steering wheel from my husband. I yanked the steering wheel to the right, taking the exit. He yelled, 'Are you nuts?' I thought I was nuts. But the Voice said, 'Exit at the McDonald's.' I wasn't hungry, I didn't have to go to the bathroom. But the Holy Spirit wanted me there for a reason I did not yet know."

----------

You are about to meet Claire, who suddenly felt an overwhelming urge to force her husband off the highway toward a McDonald's. No hunger. No bathroom emergency. Just this inner voice that wouldn't let her pass that exit. She didn't even understand it herself. It seemed irrational — even unsafe. But what happened next proved that this was no coincidence. This was the wind of the Holy Spirit in motion.

Remember what Jesus told Nicodemus? "The wind blows where it will… you hear its sound, but you do not know where it comes from or where it is going. So it is with everyone born of the Spirit." That's what we're talking about. The kind of faith that doesn't wait for a five-point plan. The kind of faith that just moves when the Spirit says go.

Sometimes, following God looks completely ridiculous from the outside. But from Heaven's perspective, it's right on course.

So, buckle up. We're letting the wind drive.

"I wasn't even sure I believed in God. But when I saw the miracle of the sun with golden raindrops falling from it, and my friend Bill saw the exact same thing. I started to cry; I knew that God really did exist. And, that He loves me."

----------

Hi! Trapper Jack here. I get to put on the referee uniform again this week. These vertical stripes are so slimming! We have puzzle pieces to look at regarding the upcoming conclave in Rome to choose a new pope. Songs have been bubbling up in my head seemingly out of nowhere, but we know where that nowhere is. We have a very important player in the game who appears to be missing. And then there are those mysterious 46 stars and 46 popes from episode 346 involving the Our Lady of Guadalupe image. Plus, throw in Jesus Christ superstar and we have quite an episode here. Because there's even more…

In this week's episode, I also talked with Michael, who once walked away from his faith. What brought him back? A lavender Virgin Mary. A vision within the sun. A long-buried sin.

It started with a spinning sun. Colors cascading. Golden raindrops dripping from the sky. On top of Apparition Hill in Medjugorje, Michael Campanelli and his friend Bill were witnessing something extraordinary. But that was only the beginning. What Michael saw just days later would break his heart open—and bring him to his knees.

What followed was a miraculous journey of grace, healing, and a life transformed. Today, Michael leads pilgrims through Padre Pio Pilgrimages guiding others to the holy places where heaven touches earth—just like it did for him.

----------

Come with us. There's gold in these hills.

"It was Jesus. I was on my knees in front of Jesus. He looked at me with such love, love that I have never ever seen in this world."

----------

Happy Easter! Let's go back many years to a very special Easter weekend. It was episode 104. Melody was about to meet Jesus, a man she had no belief in. For decades, she had worshiped the Earth, in a pagan belief known as Wicca. Melody believed there was no God, no heaven or hell. Then, came her dream. In the dream, she saw a man with long hair, being led by a jeering crowd. She didn't know who he was, but something about his eyes—so full of love and understanding—pulled her in. When he looked at her, it felt like he saw everything… and still loved her. He spoke to her of his concern for her soul. That dream led her to a church on Easter Sunday, that she'd never visited before, and to a divine appointment she could never have planned, another unmistakable Touched by Heaven moment.

I just kept praying, ' God, let my husband come home. Let my husband come home.' I have heard God's voice three times. This would be the first.

----------

Katrina—yes, spelled like the hurricane, and she'll tell you the personality matches—is a fiery force of faith navigating through one of life's messiest middle chapters. Unlike the usual Touched by Heaven story arc, this one doesn't wrap up with a pretty bow. At least, not yet.

Katrina has heard 'The Voice'—a man's voice, unmistakably divine—more than once in her life. And what He said once came true. But now? That same Voice is saying, "Trust me," as her whirlwind marriage collapses in mere weeks.

Is she a fool for trusting Him? Or is she ahead of the rest of us—because even without the arrival of the hoped for happy ending, she's found something deeper: daily conversations with God, trust in His Providence, and a peace that passes understanding.

"My whole body is shaking. I'm full-blown sobbing. I run out of the church, leaving my mom, son, and girlfriend flipping out because they know that I just saw something in church."

----------

Hi! Trapper Jack here. While recording episode 357, I had no idea how deeply it would affect listeners. One of them, my friend, Doug George, had to stop listening—it hit too close to home. Like Tom, Doug saw his deceased father… in church, bathed in light. In that moment, he felt it all—closure, forgiveness, love. Doug shares his journey of growing up with a unpredictable dad, caring for him during his final months with dementia, and finally experiencing healing in that holy encounter. Both Doug and Tom found peace in church—a reminder that healing flows from the heart of the Church, and through Jesus, we come to know not only our Heavenly Father… but our earthly ones too.

"Medjugorje, to me, is the holiest place on earth. I've been to Lourdes, which was beautiful, but I cannot wait to go back with you, Trapper and Elizabeth, to Medjugorje."

----------

If you're searching for a place to begin again in your spiritual life—a place of renewal, restoration, and undeniable fruit—look to Medjugorje. Elizabeth and I will be leading a pilgrimage to Medjugorje, October 6th through the 13th. Here is a link to get the details: https://www.cognitoforms.com/CorporateTravelService2/CorporateTravel60thAnniversaryPilgrimageToMedjugorje The Church has acknowledged the profound impact of this place: families reconciled, countless conversions through confession, miraculous healings, and hundreds, if not thousands, of men answering the call to the priesthood. Millions of pilgrims have left transformed, drawn closer to Christ through Eucharistic adoration. At a time when Christianity is shrinking, especially among the young who leave faith behind for nothing, Medjugorje stands as a model for the Church. It is a reminder of what works, what revives faith, and what calls hearts back to God. Our Lady, the Queen of Peace, has given us five stones: daily Scripture reading, praying the Rosary, monthly confession, fasting, and receiving the Eucharist at Mass. These are the weapons against the enemy, the tools for our renewal. If only we had a role model in the world to follow—and yet, here it is. Do we see it? Do we embrace it? Begin again. Medjugorje is the place to begin again.
