Jesus gave us the Church and the Mother of the Church, Mary, to get us to Heaven. Let’s fill Mother's Day with thanksgiving and gratitude for our mothers, both biological and spiritual, says Fr. Chris Alar, MIC, and also give thanks for the gift of Mary, our Spiritual Mother. Then hear the story of Voyage Comics, which publishes graphic novels about saints to guide young readers in the lessons of faith.

Join Fr. Chris Alar, MIC as he discusses the Sacrament of Anointing of the Sick — Who can be anointed, when, and how often?  This teaching is part of Fr. Chris's brand-new book, Understanding the Sacraments: God's Grace Guaranteed! — a must-have guide to the spiritual treasures of the Church.

Even going back to the Old Testament, the people of God have always had priests to mediate between them and God; to offer sacrifices in expiation for the sin of the people. Did the role of the priest change in the New Testament? And if so, how? Hear Fr. Chris discuss the priesthood and interview Mark Wahlberg about his new movie, Father Stu.
