On Monday, January 8, 2024, we celebrate an incredibly important feast, the Baptism of Jesus, as described in the Gospels of Matthew, Mark, and Luke. Along with the Crucifixion, the Baptism is the event most accepted by scholars as indisputable historical fact. Father Chris Alar, MIC, explains what this means for us today. Then hear the story of Fr. Dustin Feddon of Joseph House, who works with prisoners when they're released to get a new start in society.
Watch Fr. Chris Alar, MIC, and the Marian Fathers and Brothers from the National Shrine of The Divine Mercy on our weekly show, "Living Divine Mercy," airing on EWTN every Wednesday at 6:30 pm EST, with an encore presentation on Mondays at 9:00 am EST. Through teaching segments, Bible and St. Faustina Diary excerpts, as well as real-life examples of people who are living Divine Mercy in their lives, you will learn why Jesus said Divine Mercy is mankind's last hope of salvation!

What does the Catholic Church teach about the End Times? Are we in them now? Specifically, the 3 days of darkness prophecies are referenced more than once in Scripture (in both the Old and New Testaments) and are also brought up in the Diary of Saint Maria Faustina Kowalska and the writings of other saints. Listen as Fr. Chris Alar, MIC “sheds light” on this topic in the second of three episodes on the End Times. Special guest Daniel O’Connor.
We don't hear much about the four last things: Death, Judgment, Heaven and Hell. Join Fr. Chris Alar, MIC, in this first of a four-part series as he helps us to understand how to prepare for these things. This episode is about death. Are you afraid of dying? Venerable Fulton Sheen said we’re afraid of dying because we haven’t practiced for it. We also share the incredible story of a woman who experienced the violent death of her young husband and honored him by seeking and living out the message of Divine Mercy and forgiving his killer. Truly an amazing story.
