Transcribe →S2E3: The Virtue Between Tradition & Charismatic (Pt. 1) ft. Fr. Sean Grismer
Mar 501:27:01Tap to summarizeIn this episode, we sit down with Father Sean Grismer to talk about the divide between Catholics who identify as traditional and those who identify as charismatic. We unpack the common misconceptions each group often has about the other and explore how both expressions are meant to exist together within the life of the Church. Rather than being opposing spiritualities, tradition and charismatic renewal each highlight important aspects of Catholic life—reverence for the Church’s rich heritage and openness to the living movement of the Holy Spirit. Father Sean explains how when we embrace both, we begin to experience the Church more fully. Ultimately, the conversation invites us to move beyond labels and rediscover a faith that is both deeply rooted and spiritually alive. More from Fr.

Transcribe →S2E2: Cleaning the Heart — Obedience and What We Consume Matters
Feb 1901:11:33Tap to summarizeIn this episode, Sr. Gabriela reflects on Mary as the perfect example of obedience to God and purity of heart. Mary’s “yes” shows us what it means to trust God completely and allow His will to guide our lives. We also discuss how purity is about having an undivided heart, free from unhealthy attachments. Sr. Gabriela reminds us that what we watch, listen to, and consume can fill our minds and hearts with “trash,” so we must choose what is good, true, and life-giving. Ultimately, obedience and purity are not burdens — they bring order, peace, and real freedom, helping us live with God at the center.

Transcribe →Valentine’s Day: A Love That Sacrifices
Feb 1400:10:27Tap to summarizeValentine’s Day is more than chocolates, flowers, and romance—it’s about a love that gives. In this short reflection, we dive into the true meaning behind Valentine's Day, exploring the sacrificial love of St. Valentine and how he followed the ultimate example of love: Jesus' sacrifice on the cross. As Catholics, we know Valentine’s Day is so much more than what the world tells us. It’s about loving others beyond words—through actions, selflessness, and sacrifice. Let’s rediscover what this day is really about and embrace the deeper, truer love it calls us to. Happy Saint Valentine's Day! Have a question, comment, or topic you'd like us to cover?
