Within the history of the Catholic Church, there has been really no other saint quite like St. Thomas Aquinas, whose feast day we celebrate on Jan. 28. He is called the “Angelic” Doctor of the Church due to his great intellectual capacity and angelic purity. In fact, the seminaries now are going back to the tradition of teaching Thomistic theology, based on his teaching. Father Daniel Klimek shares insight on this great saint.

In this episode, we explore Maria Gallagher's book, "Mercy’s Power: Inspiration to Serve the Gospel of Life."

In today’s homily, Fr. David reminds us that the pro-life mission begins not only with defending the unborn, but with defending the truth about the human person. As the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith taught in Donum Vitae (1987), “Human life must be absolutely respected and protected from the moment of conception.” This foundational truth reveals why the Church insists that no one may claim the right to directly destroy an innocent human being—for life begins with the creative action of God and belongs entirely to Him.
