Artwork for Scripture and Tradition With Fr. Mitch Pacwa

Latest Episodes

Fr. Mitch explores St. Paul's teaching in Romans on being justified by grace, examining how being made truly righteous by faith is the essential prerequisite for peace with God.

Father Mitch Pacwa continues his study on Saint Paul by exploring his outreach to the Romans and how he presented the Gospel as the power of God for salvation for all who believe.

Fr. Mitch explores St. Paul's bold assertion to the Galatians that neither outward appearances nor conformity to the law can compare to a faith that works itself out through love.

Fr. Mitch reflects on Paul's call to the Galatians to turn from the law and its outward expressions, and towards the justification that comes from the death Christ bore for us.

  • Love this program & deeply respect Fr. Mitch

    I enjoy listening to whatever program Fr. Mitch is hosting. I have learned so much under his teaching—I wish I had had the opportunity to have him as a professor in college! He would be among my all-time favorites, for sure! Highly recommend anything and everything he does. He has written several books ( I own about 10 of them thus far!). I appreciate how open and direct and transparent he is. It’s just nice to listen to Fr. Mitch—his wisdom, knowledge, humor, and obvious love for the unadultera... more

  • Far-right priest

    I have listened to Father Mitch many times and found his teachings so informative. The man knows his Bible. But I am always turned off by his far-right views which leak into his program. He really would have felt comfortable supporting fascism under Hitler during WWII. Even on his November 17th telecast he mentioned how the communism of Russia, China and North Korea caused more deaths than the present pandemic, saying it mostly only affects the elderly. He never mentioned Hitler’s murder of at l... more

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Paul on the Cross, Pt. 13
Q: Sylvia asked whether Jewish people today still offer blood on Yom Kippur and why they don't.
Fr. Pacwa explains that Jews do not offer blood sacrifices anymore because the Temple was destroyed in 70 AD and sacrifices are only valid in the Temple, which no longer stands.
Paul on the Cross, Pt. 10
Q: How could John the Baptist baptize before Christ fulfilled his saving mission?
John's baptism symbolized repentance and preparation for the coming Messiah; Christ's baptism would supersede it, bringing the fullness of baptism with the Holy Spirit and fire, signaling a new covenant.
Paul on the Cross, Pt. 10
Q: Timothy was circumcised; how does that balance with Paul's stance against circumcision for Gentile believers?
Timothy's circumcision was a social-compatibility measure to ease relations with Jewish believers and not a requirement for salvation; Paul treated Timothy as an exception to manage community tensions, not as a universal rule.
Paul on the Cross, Pt. 10
Q: According to the media, there is an uptick in religious Christianity including Catholicism; why might this be the case?
The host suggests factors like a longing for the fullness of the Gospel and caution against overly simplistic salvation formulas; Catholicism emphasizes depth, liturgy, and adherence to Jesus' teachings alongside belief and baptism.
Paul on the Cross, Pt. 11
Q: Sir, where are you from?
Des Moines, Iowa.
