  • This podcast will help save your marriage and your soul

    If you are broken and aching, if you are thirsty for God (and you may not even be aware of it), if your life is falling apart and need Hope, the only one God can give, this is your podcast. It will change your life, it will draw you closer to God, it will save your soul, it will save your marriage. That's what's happened in my life since I started listening to it 5 years ago. Lord, thank you for the blessing of Dan and Stephanie, help us open our hearts to Your love as they do!

  • Black and white thinking

    I think some of their positions are good but there is a lot of distortion and black and white thinking. I think that Dan may have some untreated mental health issues such as anxiety and depression. He exhibits obsessive tendencies and there is a lot of fear mongering. I prayed for them both and I hope they can rest in the peace of Christ. Who doesn’t want us looking for Satan under ever rock. AMDG

  • Truly a CATHOLIC podcast

    Dan, Stephanie (and Jordan!) have become a staple in my Catholic formation. Every word they speak is meaningful, thought provoking, and grounded in truth. They know their faith and they LIVE their faith. They don’t water it down, and for that I am grateful. Listening to this podcast is the highlight of my week. I am not only encouraged by their knowledge, stories and journey… but also their MARRIAGE. They are an incredible witness to the Sacrament of matrimony and a bright light and beacon of ho... more

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

A Thomistic Understanding of Psychology
Q: How do the steps of self-knowledge, self-acceptance, self-possession, and self-gift relate to spiritual growth?
They outline a pathway from understanding who I am in God's plan to offering myself in love, with emotional maturity anchoring the process so that self-gift is truly possible without losing oneself.
Finding Wholeness in God
Q: What is the greatest barrier to self-knowledge?
The lack of affirmation of goodness, often rooted in early parental messaging, which undermines a person's sense of being created good and loved; addressing this requires honest self-acceptance and a reframing of one's identity in God's mercy.
What is Mental Prayer, I Don't Understand It
Q: Practical question next is how to start.
Begin by recognizing you are speaking to a friend and simply opening your heart in quiet prayer; start with short, simple conversations such as inviting God to be present, acknowledging His name, and asking for His kingdom and will to take shape in your life, all within a quiet prayer space.
You Can't Make It to Heaven without This Prayer
Q: What is the core practice of mental prayer, and how is it different from other forms of prayer?
Mental prayer is a loving, interior conversation with God where the mind is filled with Him and the heart is uplifted, emphasizing intimate relationship rather than external actions.
The Holy Spirit, the Intellect, and Progress in the Interior Life
Q: What are the gifts of the Holy Spirit and how does that relate to the Divine Indwelling?
Dr. Pinto defines the gifts as wisdom, understanding, and piety, which facilitate our union with God and help us understand divine love.
