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: Stations of the Cross
Q: Carl asks, what evidence is there for Joseph of Arimathea?
Monsignor explains that Joseph of Arimathea is mentioned in biblical accounts as the owner of the tomb near Jesus and is attested historically in the Bible; he is linked to the Sanhedrin and is portrayed as a secret believer in Jesus.
The Quest: Did Jesus Judge Judas?
Q: How does Judas' remorse differ from Peter's regret, and can both be forgiven?
Both show responses to failure, but Peter's remorse leads to repentance and forgiveness, while Judas' remorse remains unresolved and his outcome is left to God; the discussion suggests that repentance is possible for Judas too, but requires turning toward Christ.
The Quest Who is the leader of your home?
Q: What does it look like to be the head and the heart of the family?
A caller question that leads to discussion about balancing authority with love, care, and service within the family, emphasizing that leadership should protect, provide for, and foster faith in the home rather than merely wield power.
The Quest: Twisted Theology
Q: Is it permissible for a woman to distribute Communion?
It is permissible for extraordinary ministers of Holy Communion to be women, but it is not desirable; the ordinary ministers are deacons and priests, and the church norms allow broader participation while maintaining order.
The Quest: Is your house divided?
Q: Is there division within your marriage and family that you're seeking guidance about today?
The hosts encourage conversation, humility, and practical steps like meeting for coffee with those involved, praying for soft hearts, and inviting the Holy Spirit to bring peace and reconciliation.
