Reviews

4.6 out of 5 stars from 10 ratings
  • Love hearing from Monsignor Pope

    This show is great especially when they cover headlines with Monsignor’s New Round Up.

    I also like when they preview the weekend’s scripture readings Five Stars all day.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

The Quest: Catholic Socialist Teaching?
Q: What is the balance between generosity and obligation to the poor, and how should Catholics discern the right level of involvement?
Fr. Sam references cheerful giving guided by 2 Corinthians 9:7, urging people to give within their means with joy, while balancing immediate aid with long-term empowerment as part of social teaching.
The Quest: Catholic Socialist Teaching?
Q: How can families discern issues without rejecting the person holding a differing view, especially when political positions seem to contradict Catholic teaching?
The discussion emphasizes accompanying people with truth and love, avoiding labeling, and recognizing that charity guides how we navigate disagreements, with a focus on the Gospel and not just political labels.
The Quest: Catholic Socialist Teaching?
Q: Is it possible to receive communion from a minister who supports abortion, and how should a Catholic respond to that situation?
Fr. Sam explains that while one may feel moral disgust, receiving the Eucharist is about Christ who remains present regardless of the minister's personal views; the act should be a humble submission to Jesus, and praying for the minister's conversion while staying charitable in one's approach.
The Quest: The Value of Sports in Our Faith Lives
Q: How has sports impacted your life and faith in practical terms?
Listeners describe strengthened marriages, meaningful friendships, and a sense of belonging through athletic participation, showing how movement and competition can align with spiritual growth.
The Quest: "Rejoice Always"... but even in times of suffering?
Q: Are we as Christians really called to rejoice always?
Yes, not by denying pain or pretending to feel happy, but by cultivating faith, hope, and a rootedness in Christ that allows joy to coexist with suffering.
