Fasting
Fasting
To exercise true freedom, you have to be able to say yes and no to both the bad and the good, not just to what is sinful. When you fast on Ash Wednesday and Good Friday, you are being obedient to the Church and share in the sacrifice of Christ. In fact, some demons can only be driven out by prayer and fasting. Father Chris Alar, MIC, explains.
Then hear the story of Greg and Julie Alexander and how, through transformation and sacrifice, they overcame their marital difficulties and embraced God's true plan for marriage.

All of us have heard the term “woke.” According to the Oxford English Dictionary, woke originally meant “well-informed” or “up to date,” but now chiefly alerts us to racial or social discrimination and injustice.

Then hear the story of Joe Kennedy, a high-school football coach who, because of wokeism, was fired for praying with his players. His case ended up going all the way to the U.S.
Many are (rightfully so) frustrated with the lack of reverence and adherence to doctrine at some Catholic Masses today. However, is SSPX (Society of St. Pius X) founded by Archbishop Lefebvre the answer? Can a Catholic validly attend one of their Masses or receive their sacraments? Are they in schism or not? Hear Fr. Chris Alar explain this as well as other Ecclesiae Dei communities such as Fraternal Society of St. Peter (FSSP) and the Institute of Christ the King Sovereign Priest (ICKSP)
