Why has addiction become so prevalent in our world? What, if anything, can we do to overcome it? What can we do to maintain hope? Join Fr. Chris Alar, MIC, for a frank discussion and learn some answers to these questions. This episode also features an interview with Jim Wahlberg (brother of Mark Wahlberg) in which he shares some of his family’s experience with addiction and how they have worked to overcome it.

In a continuation from last week, the remaining seven secrets with Vinny Flynn are discussed and testimony is given by Fr. Chris and others as to the power of the Real Presence of Christ in the Blessed Sacrament.

Many believe that all good people will go to Heaven when they die, saying, “I'm fine. I never killed anybody.” Well, Jesus' words in the Bible and the Diary of St. Faustina say something a bit different. Father Chris Alar, MIC, explains that Heaven is not a prize for those who are just good, but for those who are active disciples of Christ. Then hear the story of Hearts for Music, an inspiring group that brings children and adults with profound disabilities together through the universal language of music and compassion.
