Discerning Spirits

One of the most important parts of growth in the spiritual life is to be able to discern God's will and, likewise, discern what is not of God. Father Thaddaeus Lancton, MIC, explains the discernment of spirits using the time-tested technique of Ignatian Spirituality. Then meet Fr. Richard Shuaibu who shares his courageous story of discerning God's will when making a life-changing decision.

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 ET, with an encore presentation on Mondays at 9:00 am ET. 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!

Our non-Catholic brethren often claim that our Catholic faith is not based on the Bible, and is even contrary to it. Not true, as Fr. Chris Alar, MIC, explains, sharing how the Catholic Church used her authority from Jesus Himself to put together the Bible as we know it today.
Jesus said, “In my Father’s house there are many rooms” (Jn 14:2). Did you know there are different levels of Heaven and hell, and not everyone will experience the afterlife in the same way? We will each be filled to perfection, though not all to the same capacity. Father Chris Alar, MIC, explains. Then meet William Heyer, a gifted architect who dedicates his craft to building and refurbishing Catholic churches that inspire worship and reflect the glory of God.
When we think of the Saints, we often picture their heroic deeds or miraculous lives or miracles performed, but what truly made them holy were the virtues they practiced every single day. Father Donald Calloway, MIC, explores this fact more deeply in his new children’s book for Marian Press, Virtues of the Saints: Fifteen Heavenly Habits for Children, co-authored with Patrick O’Hearn.
