How Can Angels Help Us Get to Heaven if Jesus Paid the Debt of Our Sin? (Father Simon Says)
Tuesday, July 8, 2025 • Duration 03:53
Okay, so here's the question Claudine asked Fr. Simon: 👉 If Jesus paid the debt of our sin on the Cross and said, “It is finished,” then what exactly are angels doing to help us get to heaven?
Fr. Simon points out that angels are all over the Bible, from the Old Testament to Revelation. They’re active messengers, helpers, protectors. 📖 Remember St. Peter getting busted out of prison by an angel? Even Jesus interacted with angels. So, if He worked with them, why wouldn’t we?
Yes, Jesus’ sacrifice on the Cross redeemed us entirely. But… 👉 God loves to share His work with His creatures.
That means:
-Angels help proclaim and protect the Gospel.
-Saints intercede and continue their important mission from Heaven.
-We become His missionaries on Earth.
Fr. Simon reminds us that Jesus doesn’t work alone. He’s chosen to work through us... and through angels and saints.
"It is Finished"... Wait, What Exactly Was Finished?
Fr. Simon explains how Jesus’ death and the Last Supper are one single sacrifice, not two separate events.
Here’s the timeline:
-The Last Supper was Thursday night.
-But in Jewish time, Friday starts at sundown.
-So, the Supper and the Cross happened on the same day.
-Jesus drank three cups of wine at the Last Supper, then paused.
-On the Cross, He takes the fourth cup (the sour wine).“It is finished.”
-That “finished” isn’t just “I’m done.” It means the sacrifice is fulfilled.
And that one sacrifice is what we participate in at every single Mass. Father reassures you that it's not a new sacrifice or a do-over. It's the same sacrifice extended through time and space.
Angels in the Economy of Salvation
Fr. Simon wraps it up like this:
✅ Yes, Jesus paid it all.
✅ But the work of applying that salvation to each heart is an ongoing mission.
✅ And angels play a key part.
We’re all caught up in God’s mysterious, beautiful, crazy-generous plan.
God’s not a solo act. He wants a heavenly team to carry out His love.
And that includes... you.

Why Would God Allow the Texas Flooding to Happen? 💔 (The Patrick Madrid Show)
Tuesday, July 8, 2025 • Duration 13:20
Patrick Madrid opens up after the heart-shattering Texas floods that took the lives of many: including two young Catholic girls found holding their Rosaries. This isn’t a tidy theology talk; it’s a gut-wrenching, faith-clinging, grief-soaked conversation about why God allows suffering, and how we hold on when life falls apart.
🗣️ The Caller: Cecile from Bryan, Texas
Cecile calls in, her heart cracked wide open. Her nephew just lost his best friend, his wife, and their two children. His question is one we all ask eventually: “How could God let this happen?”
Patrick doesn’t pretend to have the magic answer. In fact, his first move is humility:
“There is no answer that will make this okay. Not now.”
But what he does offer is one of the most compassionate and theological walk-throughs of the “Problem of Evil” you’ll ever hear in Catholic media.
Key Takeaways:
God Is Not the Author of Evil
Evil, whether moral (caused by free will choices) or natural (like floods, cancer, etc.), was never part of God’s original design.
These came a ripple effect from the sin of Adam and Eve that .
A Shepherd’s Words After the Texas Tragedy (Morning Air)
Tuesday, July 8, 2025 • Duration 16:05
This Morning Air episode is heavy, but it’s one we need to hear. John Morales sits down with Archbishop Gustavo García-Siller after the devastating flash floods that ripped through Kerrville, TX over the 4th of July weekend. The floodwaters claimed the lives of over 100 people, including campers and counselors from Camp Mystic. 💔
Here’s what stands out from the conversation:
“Presence is the First Response”
Archbishop Gustavo says he visited families, survivors, and even presided over a Mass. Sometimes, he explains, just being there in silence was the most powerful thing he could offer.
He reminds us that God’s mercy is not abstract; it’s real, it’s human, and it shows up in hugs, tears, and shared silence.
At Sunday Mass in Kerrville, he watched grief and praise collide. Five babies were baptized that day, a stunning sign of life and hope, even while surrounded by death.
That paradox: baptismal water vs. floodwater, shaped his homily. It was a holy moment, but it was a raw one. The Body of Christ has been bruised but is still breathing.
“Where is God?”
John Morales asks: Why would a good God allow this?
"My Husband Is Giving Me the Cold Shoulder; What Do I Do?" (Marriage Unhindered)
Monday, July 7, 2025 • Duration 06:21
If you've ever sent a text, meant it to be NBD, and suddenly found yourself in a heated battle, you are so not alone. 😅 On this episode of Marriage Unhindered, therapist dream team Doug and his daughter Monica Hinderer take a call from Mary, a wife of 33 years, who's just trying to go camping... without emotional landmines. 🚐
The Conflict: Trailer Trouble & Radio Silence
Mary shared a pic of their busted trailer floor in the family group chat. Her husband totally lost it. 🙈 He shut down, started name-calling, and hasn’t spoken to her in five hours.
Why the meltdown?
Doug and Monica help Mary (and us!) break it down:
💢 His likely triggers:
-Disrespect (He felt like she should’ve checked with him first.)
-Failure (That photo made him feel like a bad handyman in front of the whole family.)
Doug explains that men can be super sensitive about these two things, and this little moment was a perfect storm. ⛈️
Monica’s Advice: Don’t Chase, Don’t Explode
Monica gives calm, Christ-centered advice for conflict repair:
The Microplastic Invasion of the Human Body (The Drew Mariani Show)
Monday, July 7, 2025 • Duration 12:39
🧴 Plastic, Plastic Everywhere... 😱
So, Drew kicks things off with the unfortunate news: we are literally full of plastic. Not like, “I eat too many Cheetos” full; we’re talking microplastics in our brain, lungs, heart, even the placenta. 💔
It’s not just about turtles and oceans anymore. 🐢🌊
We’re eating, breathing, and absorbing plastic through food wrappers, shampoo, detergents, even that “eco-friendly” coffee cup you thought was safe. ☕😬
Some of these chemicals, like phthalates, are hormone disruptors and immune wreckers. 🤒
🛡️ Enter: Your Gut. The Unsung Superhero. 🦸♂️
Dr. O’Mara says: don’t freak out. The battlefield is your gut microbiome, aka your inner bulletproof vest 🦠
“Your microbiome is like your sump pump,” Dr. O'Mara says, “and mine failed last week; it was $40,000 in water damage. Don’t let that be your body.” 💧
🔥 What helps your gut armor up?
Fermented foods! 🥬🥕🧀 Think: sauerkraut, kimchi, kefir, blue cheese, kombucha.
Clean up your diet: Ditch the donuts, muffins, processed junk.
How Do We Know We Believe in the Right God? (The Patrick Madrid Show)
Sunday, July 6, 2025 • Duration 07:13
Lucia, a young listener, called in to The Patrick Madrid Show with the kind of question that stops you in your tracks: “How do we know we believe in the right God?” 💥 Big question for a little voice, right?
Jesus: The Proof
First off, Patrick answers by going straight to the source: Jesus. We know we’re believing in the right God because Jesus Christ: the second person of the Holy Trinity, proved it over and over again with some pretty jaw-dropping miracles. Think about it:
-Healing people left and right
-Casting out demons
-Raising people from the dead: even when they were dead-dead, like four-days-old Lazarus
Let’s not forget the time he fed 5,000+ people with just a few loaves and fish! 🥖🐟
Patrick explains that Jesus didn’t just perform these miracles to be a crowd-pleaser. No, He was revealing Himself as God in the flesh, saying: "I am the Son of God. I am revealing God to you!"
His Death and Resurrection
If you’re still wondering, "Okay, but how do I know for sure?", here’s what you need to remember: Jesus predicted His own death and resurrection. He actually did it; he told His apostles, "Hey, they’re going to arrest and kill me, but I’ll be back in three days." He pulled it off... saw Him after He rose from the dead.
Why You Don’t Need to Be the Pope to Lead (Trending with Timmerie)
Saturday, July 5, 2025 • Duration 12:06
Image via Marco Iacobucci Epp / Shutterstock.
If you missed this episode of Trending with Timmere, you’re in for a treat, because Timmerie sits down with Catholic speaker and leadership expert Fr. Nathan Cromly. They share truth about what real leadership looks like. 🔥
🚨 The Big Idea: Leadership = Influence, Not Just Position
Fr. Nathan wants you to know this foundational truth: "Leadership is about influence, not position." In a world that’s either running from leadership or complaining about how it’s failing, Fr. Nathan and Timmerie unpack how authentic Christian leadership turns the whole thing upside down... just like Jesus always does.
✝️ What Does Jesus Have to Do with It? Everything.
Jesus didn’t hand out business cards or take a corner office.
He sent out 12 apostles with basically nothing but faith, courage, and sandals. And you know what? That was enough to build the Catholic Church across the globe. 🌍
"If we’re not making a change, we’re not living out our Christian life."
Christian leadership is about intentional impact. Whether you’re a mom, a CEO, or a barista... your mission is to bring Jesus where He isn’t.
The Gift of America (Morning Air)
Friday, July 4, 2025 • Duration 09:42
Hear a heartfelt, hopeful conversation about faith, freedom, and good ol’ fashioned patriotism with Catholic journalist Erika Ahern. She asked people what it is that makes them love America.
Patriotism with Purpose
🗽The testimonies gathered by Erika about why people love America weren’t about flag-waving for its own sake.
They were about the freedom to pursue the good... to live virtuously, follow God's call, and raise families in peace. That’s the kind of freedom that fosters holiness.
America: A Place Where the Imago Dei Can Flourish
Erika draws a powerful connection between American ideals and Catholic teaching.
She reminds us that the image of God in every person (Imago Dei) shines brighter when we have the freedom to seek truth, speak it, and worship God... all core American freedoms.
America = Gift + Responsibility
Many of the testimonies saw America as a gift... not just a country, but a calling.
Eriks says that kind of gratitude fuels a desire to protect and pass on this gift to the next generation.
Let’s Talk Gratitude
In a culture that loves to gripe 😒, Erika says Catholics should be the loudest voices of especially on holidays like the 4th.
What Does the Church Say About Patriotism? (Morning Air)
Thursday, July 3, 2025 • Duration 12:10
Happy 4th of July! As you get ready to grill out and enjoy fireworks, John Morales on Morning Air is serving up a super timely conversation with Catholic writer/speaker Laura DeMaria. 🔥
Wait… Is Patriotism Catholic? 🗽
Yes! Laura notes that the Catechism says loving and serving your country is part of the virtue of charity... aka LOVE. ❤️
📖 "The love and service of one's country follow from the duty of gratitude and belong to the order of charity." -CCC 2239
That means loving your country is legitimate when it's in the right order:
👉 God first, then family, then country... not the other way around. It's not making a golden calf out of the Constitution. 🐄📜
🧭 Real Patriotism ≠ Idol Worship
Laura says there's always a temptation to go overboard with nationalism, but the Church gives us balance. 🙏 Loving your country doesn't have to mean ignoring its flaws or pretending it's perfect; it means recognizing God gave you this place as a gift. Your love should come from gratitude, not blind pride.
Think of it like this: loving America should be filial, like the love you have for your parents. It's rooted in relationship and responsibility.
God Has Given You His Heart (Father Simon Says)
Thursday, July 3, 2025 • Duration 15:33
Image via Renata Sedmakova / Shutterstock.
Okay, so Fr. Simon may joke that he’s recycling his old sermons, but these are gold 💯. This reflection is personal, beautiful, and gets you right in the heart. 😭❤️🔥
Fr. Simon reflects on Romans 5:5, where it says: “While we were still helpless, Christ died for the ungodly.” Now, when we hear “ungodly,” we think, “Yikes, messy people.” But Fr. Simon points out it actually means “impious”: those who don’t worship. And then he hits us with this hilarious but touching story about a young girl handing a firecracker to a college guy she had a crush on, like it was a rose of devotion 🌹... and boom 💥!
That, he says, is worship: not servile fear or groveling, but falling in love. God doesn’t need our worship like an insecure celebrity needing applause. He wants us to love Him because He already loves us.
❤️🔥 God Sent His Heart... Literally
Fr. Simon asks a great question: “Why did the Father send the Son? Was He busy that day?”
No. The Father sent His Heart. What are our children if not our heart outside our body? So, when God gave us Jesus, He gave us His most precious treasure. The Sacred Heart of Jesus is the heart of the Father. 💗
Let that sink in: God gave us His actual heart.
through the Fall:
distorted creation itself
Natural Disasters Are Part of a Broken World
Nature itself is “off” because of sin.
But this isn’t a cosmic punishment; it's a sign that we’re living in a world still groaning for redemption (Romans 8:22).
God Doesn’t Just “Allow” Suffering... He Entered Into It
The ultimate answer to suffering isn’t a what, it’s a who: Jesus on the Cross.
God didn’t stay distant. He became a man and suffered with us, for us.
A Father’s Heart
Patrick shares a personal story about his toddler son, Tim, who was bleeding from a head wound. At the ER, his son cried out:
“Daddy, help me!”
Patrick could’ve stopped it... but didn’t, because letting the doctor stitch the wound was what would ultimately heal him.
The parallel: God the Father sees us screaming in pain... and He still lets it happen; it's not because He’s indifferent, but it's because He knows the healing that’s coming later.
💬 Cecile’s Beautiful Insight:
She echoes it all with such tender faith:
“God is there. Just like you were with your son, Patrick. God is there, with us in it... holding us.”
Yes. Amen. 🙏
📖 The Final Word:
Maybe, just maybe... we’ll be like little Tim someday, looking back and finally understanding.
Until then, we weep, we pray, and we cling to this promise:
“Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted.” -Matthew 5:4
Take time today to pray for those affected in Texas. And if you’re struggling with your own grief, go ahead and be honest with God. Cry out. Ask why. He can take it, and He is with you. 💔✝️
🙏 Jesus, man of sorrows, be near to those who mourn. Hold them. Heal them. And help us all to trust You, even in the dark.

Archbishop says that in times like this, people don’t need theology lectures. They need someone to hear their cry, just like God hears ours.
He reminds us that faith is not about having airtight answers; it’s about being there in the storm. And sometimes... even when we don’t see the sun, we trust it’s still shining behind the clouds. ☀️
So many have stepped up; over 850 water rescues, including one man who saved at least 160 people solo. His eminence wants us to see that God’s providence is working through ordinary people, just showing up.
✝️ How Can We Help?
Archbishop Gustavo says that Catholic Charities San Antonio is leading the relief effort. At this stage, monetary donations are most helpful, since physical donations have already been generously provided. Recovery will be long, so sustained support matters. 🙏
Let’s keep Kerrville and all those affected in prayer.
Let’s remember that God is with us.
And if you can, please consider how you can support.
We're the Body of Christ; right now, the Body is aching. Let’s be His healing hands.
✅ Let him cool off. (Stonewalling means he is trying to self-soothe, even if it’s immature.)
✅ When things calm down, say something like:
“I’m sorry for upsetting you. That wasn’t my intention. I’d like to talk when you're ready.”
✅ When he’s open, gently ask:
“Help me understand what triggered you, because I didn’t see it the same way.”
But also: Don’t ignore his bad behavior.
“Swearing and name-calling aren’t okay. That hurt me.”
It’s about growing together. 🙌
💡 Doug’s Take: Conflict = Opportunity
Doug shares this gem 💎:
“Conflicts are great chances to learn how to love your spouse better... and for them to learn to love you better.”
Let’s be honest: every married couple has their weird, recurring conflict patterns (read: landmines you keep stepping on 🙃). The trick is learning from them... not just surviving them.
The final advice:
➡️ Start with humility.
➡️ Be curious, not accusatory.
➡️ Keep boundaries around disrespect.
💕 Your Takeaway:
If your spouse overreacts... don’t retaliate. Slow down. Breathe. Ask questions. Apologize if needed, but don’t excuse sin or verbal abuse.
Marriage = sanctifying chaos with sacraments. 😂💒

✅ Yes to wood & bamboo cutting boards! They’re safer than plastic ones that shed micro-junk onto your veggies.
🚫 Be wary of paper coffee cups; they’re lined with plastic and heat pulls that gunk straight into your drink.
💡 Dr. O’Mara's pro tip: Carry your own ceramic coffee mug.
👶 “What About the Pool?! And Shampoo?!” 🏊♀️
Yep, even kiddie pools and shampoo bottles can release nasty VOCs (volatile organic compounds) into the air. 😬
So again, it’s not about panic; it’s about limiting exposure:
🧼 Switch to natural personal care products.
🍽️ Go for glass, ceramic, and stainless steel in the kitchen.
💧 Refill a good water bottle.
🙏 So What Do We Do?
This is a call to stewardship. 💚🌍
We’re temples of the Holy Spirit, remember? (1 Cor. 6:19 👈) So taking care of our bodies means:
-Eating more like our great-grandparents did.
-Being mindful of what we use, touch, and breathe.
-Keeping our "sump pump" (gut) healthy.

hundreds of people
The apostles themselves saw Him, ate meals with Him, and they even touched Him to make sure they weren’t just seeing things. People died for this belief. These eyewitnesses of the risen Jesus didn’t recant their faith, even under torture or execution. They knew it was true.
We Have the Receipts: Bible and Tradition
The Bible is filled with Jesus’ teachings and the testimonies of those who witnessed His miracles. Patrick also reminds Lucia that Catholic tradition (what we call Apostolic Tradition) is just as important. Passed down from the apostles themselves, this tradition helps us make sense of the Bible and deepens our understanding of God’s truth.
Faith in the One True God
In a nutshell, we know we believe in the right God because:
-Jesus revealed Him through miracles and teachings
-Jesus died for us and rose again, proving He’s God
-The martyrs were so convinced by what they saw, they died for it 💀✝️
-The Bible and Apostolic Tradition back it all up
Patrick wraps it up saying that, if you trust in Jesus and His teachings: especially in the context of the Catholic Church, you can be 100% sure that you believe in the right God.
Lucia: Totally satisfied. 🙌
If you’re asking the same question? Well, we hope this gives you that same sense of peace and certainty. Believe in Jesus. Trust the Church.

Pope Leo XIV: Holiness on a Mission
They also chat about the new Pope Leo XIV and his very first homilies, where he laid it all out: holiness is the mission... and he’s not doing it solo.
He’s not saying, “watch me,” he’s saying, “come with me.”
Fr. Nathan points out that the Pope has a powerful position, sure. But true leadership isn’t just about having power. It’s about having authority, and that comes from living in truth, radiating Christ, and living with integrity.
Power vs. Authority (This One’s Huge)
Here’s the important point:
-Power is given externally: titles, money, status, the mic.
-Authority flows from within: your holiness, your truth, your virtue.
"Authority comes from proximity to Christ." 🙏
If we get both? 🚀 Watch out, world. But even if you only have interior authority, you can still lead massively; just ask any of the saints.
🚫 “But I’m Not the Boss…” = Excuse City
Timmerie brings up a real-talk struggle... especially among men who say, “I’m not the decision-maker, so I can’t lead.”
Fr. Nathan’s response: 😂 Basically: “Get out of bed anyway.”
He says that’s not just wrong... it’s lazy. Because leadership doesn’t require a title. It requires truth and action. Even support roles, those unsung heroes, are vital forms of leadership.
“Behind every great decision-maker is someone who coached, encouraged, and listened.”
No influence? No way. If you’re living in truth, you are bending the world around you.
🙌 Final Point: Leadership Starts with the Heart
Jesus doesn’t say, “Get famous and then get holy.” He flips the script:
“Give me your heart, and I’ll give you a platform.”
That’s the pattern of every saint. No money, no title, no army... just faith, hope, and love, and you have a God who multiplies what we offer. 💛💙❤️
📌 Takeaways for the Catholic Go-Getter:
💡 Leadership is not reserved for CEOs and bishops.
✝️ You’re called to lead right where you are.
🕊️ Interior holiness = real authority.
🙋♂️ Stop waiting for a title. Lead anyway.
So go out there and start influencing your world, one holy decision at a time. You've already got what it takes when you have the Lord with you. 😉

thanksgiving,
Read the Declaration of Independence with your kids. Pray a Rosary for America. Talk about the blessings we didn’t earn but were given. That's great advice from Erika!
Catholic Patriotism is rooted in:
📖 Natural law
🕊️ Religious freedom
⚖️ God-given dignity
🤍 Gratitude
🌱 Hope for the future
Erika believes we Catholics were made for this moment... to remind our nation of its soul, its founding on transcendent truths, and its potential for holiness.
This 250th birthday season (leading up to 2026 🎉), Catholics are called not just to wave the flag, but to lift up the nation in prayer, teach our kids the truth, and reclaim the noble vision of America that puts God first.
Because when God is first... everything else falls into place.

🙏 Want to Be a Patriot? Start with Prayer.
Seriously. Laura explains that prayer is the most basic and powerful act of patriotism. It’s not just lighting sparklers and belting Lee Greenwood (though you can totally still do that). 🎆🎤
Pray for:
-Our country,
-Our leaders (yes, even the ones you disagree with)
-Our laws and culture
-Our divisions and healing
Even St. Paul backed this up: 📜 “I urge… prayers be made for all men, for kings and all who are in high positions…” -1 Timothy 2:1-2
That's Holy Spirit-approved life guidance. ✝️🔥
Freedom = Truth. Truth = Jesus.
Laura also hits on a big one: the Catholic view of freedom. It’s not “do whatever I want.”
Real freedom is rooted in truth, and truth has a name: Jesus. 🙌
Without Him, “freedom” becomes chaos.
➡️ Identity confusion
➡️ Subjective morality
➡️ And a whole lot of unhappy people trying to “live their truth” without THE Truth
So… How Should a Catholic Celebrate the 4th?
Glad you asked. Laura keeps it simple and holy:
-Start with a family prayer: Thank God for the blessings and responsibilities of living in this country.
-Celebrate with joy and reverence
-Let your fireworks be matched with faith
Oh, and John Adams (yes, that founding father) said Independence Day should be marked by “solemn acts of devotion to Almighty God.”
Translation: pray before you have a party. God > grill. 🔥🌭🙏
✅ Patriotism is Catholic, but it's a virtue when rightly ordered
✅ God comes first... country flows from gratitude to Him
✅ Pray for your country.
✅ True freedom = living in God’s truth, not personal opinion
✅ Celebrate the 4th with both joy and humility

Eucharistic Miracles
He then shares this story about the Eucharistic miracle of Buenos Aires (Pope Francis was actually involved before he became Pope). Long story short:
-A host was found discarded in the back of a church.
-It was placed in water to dissolve respectfully.
-Instead of dissolving, it turned into bloody tissue.
-Tests confirmed it was heart tissue from someone who suffered deeply… and was still alive when the sample was taken. 💔
Every tested Eucharistic miracle so far: It's always heart tissue. ❤️🔥
You Receive God's Heart at Mass
Fr. Simon explains that when you receive the Eucharist, you're not just receiving “a piece of Jesus” in some vague spiritual way. You're literally receiving:
The Sacred Heart of Jesus.
The Heart of God.
Into your life.
That’s real presence, real love, real responsibility.
You are being asked to care for Christ like Mary and Joseph did, to carry Him inside you into the world.
😢 So Many Don’t Know
He ends with sorrow for those who don’t know what they’re missing. We’ve been given the Sacred Heart... in the Eucharist at every Mass.
-God doesn’t want your worship for His ego; He’s already madly in love with you.
-Jesus is the Heart of the Father.
-In every Eucharist, God places His actual Sacred Heart into your hands.
-You are a living tabernacle; carry Christ like Mary did.
🙏❤️🔥 Jesus, meek and humble of heart, make our hearts like unto Thine.
