Our Lady of the Rosary
Our Lady of the Rosary
On Oct. 7, the Church celebrates the Feast of Our Lady of the Rosary, a feast that reminds us of the power of prayer, especially in times of trial. In fact, it commemorates a naval battle in 1571 that many say was one of the most important in the history of the world and may have saved Western civilization. Father Donald Calloway, MIC, shares that the Rosary is a spiritual weapon and a source of hope, uniting Christians in trust and devotion to Mary, who always leads us to Her Son.
Then hear Fr. Mark Baron, MIC, in conversation with Dr. Jem Sullivan of The Catholic University of America in Washington, DC, on sacred art and how beauty itself can evangelize.

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. Father Chris Alar, MIC, explores the true meaning of “woke” and whether the Church rejects it or embraces it under the realm of Catholic social teaching. 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.
The holy penitential season of Lent is a time in which we seek to grow closer to Christ and His Passion, and we journey with Him through the Way of the Cross in order to prepare our hearts for the Resurrection on Easter Sunday. Father Daniel Klimek explains why we're called not only to give up material luxuries, but also to give up our sin so that we may die and rise along with Christ and experience an inner conversion of heart.
