The Catechism makes clear to us that evangelization and the sacraments go hand in hand. An ancient saying is highlighted, linking the two: lex orandi, lex credendi—or, the law of prayer is the law of faith. Fr.

At the heart of the Liturgy of the Eucharist is the epiclesis, when the priest begs the Holy Spirit to come and transform the bread and wine into the Body and Blood, Soul and Divinity of Christ.

When we show devotion to the Blessed Virgin Mary, we fulfill her prophecy that “all generations will call me blessed.” The Catechism clearly shows us how such devotion does not compete with devotion to God, but in fact fosters adoration of God. Fr. Mike declares that the better we know Mary, the better we know Jesus, and the more we love Mary, the …

1
Day 132: Mary Mother of the Church (2024) 16:04

Earlier in the Catechism, we unpacked Mary as the Mother of Jesus. Now, we look at what it means for Mary to be the Mother of the Church. Fr.

Day 130: The Communion of Saints (2024) 16:02

16:44

The Lord calls everyone to live a life of surrender, and we have been looking at the various ways God calls people to grow in holiness.

For the Church to remain truly apostolic, she must exercise the apostolate, which is the mission “to spread the Kingdom of Christ over all the earth.” Today’s readings remind us that all members of the Church are “sent out” on a mission to proclaim the Good News. Most importantly, Fr. Mike emphasizes that charity, drawn from our unity with Christ, …

Day 117: The Church Is Catholic (2024) 22:03

1M ago22:03

22:03

We continue our examination of the four marks of the Church with today’s mark: catholic. Fr. Mike explains that “catholic” means that the Church is universal in two senses. The first is that Christ is fully present in her, and so receives the fullness of the means of salvation. Second, it goes out to all peoples; everyone belongs. Today’s readings …

Day 116: The Church Is Holy (2024) 17:35

1M ago17:35

17:35

Fr. Mike examines the next characteristic of the Church, the Church is holy, and he emphasizes two important ideas.

1
Day 115: Wounds to Unity (2024) 20:07

1M ago20:07

20:07

Together, with Fr. Mike, we examine the wounds to the unity of Christ’s one, holy, Catholic, and apostolic Church. The Catechism emphasizes that people on both sides of this division are to blame for this broken unity.

1
Day 112: The Church Is the Bride (2024) 16:13

1M ago16:13

16:13

Christ is the head of the Church. The Catechism describes Jesus’ relationship to his Church as “a personal relationship…expressed by the image of bridegroom and bride.” Fr. Mike points out how important this is by reminding us that, underneath all of the doctrine and the dogma, God is madly in love with you. If we always remember this love, everyth…

1
Day 111: The Church as the Body of Christ (2024) 17:28

1M ago17:28

17:28

“The Church is communion with Jesus.” The Catechism shows us what it means for the Church to be considered the “body of Christ”. Fr.

Day 109: Mystery of Union With God (2024) 17:09

2M ago17:09

17:09

Do we love the Church? Some of us might struggle with that idea, but Fr. Mike explains that if we are to love and live in accordance with the heart of Jesus, we must love what he loves.

Day 107: Origin of the Church (2024) 20:28

2M ago20:28

20:28
