    What Happens After You Die? Shocking Near-Death Stories and the Evidence That Can’t Be Ignored!

    In this eye-opening video, I sit down with John Burke, a researcher who has interviewed over 1,500 people who have had near-death experiences (NDEs). John’s extensive research reveals compelling evidence that the soul exists and that there is life after death. These NDE stories aren’t just hallucinations—they offer real, verifiable details about what happens when we die. John shares what initially sparked his interest in NDEs and how these experiences defy common skeptics' explanations. He also tells extraordinary stories, such as a blind person’s first experience of sight in heaven and a woman’s journey to heaven during brain surgery. One of the most striking discoveries is that people from all over the world, regardless of culture or background, describe encountering the same God, experiencing unconditional love, and reviewing their lives. Additionally, John reveals how people who have had NDEs experience time in heaven as multidimensional, challenging our understanding of time on Earth. This conversation is a powerful affirmation that we all have a soul and that death is not the end. It offers profound insights into what awaits us on the other side and how our lives are eternally connected to God. If you've ever wondered about the reality of the afterlife or the existence of the soul, this video is for you.

    The Battle You’re Losing Against Yourself (And 5 Tips on How to Win)

    Ever feel like you’ve tried to make a change but somehow always end up back where you started? It's frustrating, and it’s easy to think that the chance to change has passed. But I’ve got news for you: it’s not too late. Change doesn’t need to wait for the new year or the "perfect moment." You can start today. In this episode, I’m sharing 5 straightforward tips to help you make real, lasting change in your life. The truth is, transformation happens when you stop waiting and take action, no matter how small the step. We all face the challenge of becoming the person God has called us to be. And let’s face it—temptations are real. Ever notice how Doritos are impossible to stop eating? They’re engineered to be that way, right? But facing your weaknesses head-on isn’t always the solution. Sometimes, it’s about avoiding situations that trigger them in the first place. The bottom line is this: Your mistakes don’t define you. Real change comes when you understand that God’s grace is enough. Trust in His plan, take that first step forward, and let Him guide you through the process.

    From a Manger to Mayhem: a world record in promiscuity; a murder; & how Christmas solves everything.

    In this episode we dive deep into the reality that our society is drifting away from the bedrock of Judeo-Christian values. We're seeing a disturbing celebration of violence, like the shocking murder of a CEO, and a moral unravelings, as seen in a woman's OnlyFans boast about sleeping with 100 men in a single day. These unsettling trends are the fruit of a godless worldview that strips away the inherent dignity of every person. I discuss that it's time to reclaim the rich legacy of Christianity, which has historically uplifted humanity, and return to these core beliefs to restore our moral compass and affirm the true worth of every human life. ........

    Advent Isn’t Over! Spiritual Tips to Finish Strong!

    Advent isn’t over yet, guys! While in the secular world, it seems like Christmas is already here, Catholics have a very different perspective. In the weeks leading up to Christmas, we not only prepare our homes for Jesus’ birth, but we prepare our hearts and minds and spiritual lives, too! Today on the Chris Stefanick Show, I’m talking to my dear friend, Fr. Michael O’Loughlin. He is the pastor of the Proto-Cathedral of St. Mary in Los Angeles and co-host of the What God Is Not Podcast. And yes, he is also famous for going to bars and coffee shops in LA dressed in his priest clerics and evangelizing to the patrons there! We talk about how to close our Advent strong (or how to get back on track if you feel like your Advent has been lacking) and how to finish with the best Christmas ever. We chat about how hardcore Byzantine Advent is (they fast from meat, dairy, wine AND oil!), why engaging with God through our senses is important and needed, how to prepare your heart for Jesus’ birth, and so much more. Plus, Fr. Michael shares all about Byzantine iconography and goes through several beautiful icons that capture the beauty of this season. I can’t wait to dive in! Show links: Fr. Michael’s podcast: https://whatgodisnot.com/ My sister’s AMAZING art and iconography: https://elizabethzelasko.com/ ........ LIFE: The Journey of Real Life Catholics is HERE!

    Why did Aztecs Stop Human Sacrifice & Secrets from Our Lady of Guadalupe

    December 12 is the feast of Our Lady of Guadalupe, marking 493 years since our Blessed Mother appeared to St. Juan Diego and initiated the largest mass conversion to Christianity EVER. If you don’t know how AMAZING the story of the apparitions of Mary, the miracle of Juan Diego’s tilma, and how God intervened in a contentious relationship between Aztecs and Spanish colonists, your mind will be BLOWN. You guys, I am so excited to share this episode with you, that I filmed at the Shrine of Our Lady of Guadalupe! I touch on the complex issue of colonialism (it’s not as black and white as you’d think), the story of a lowly farmer who was visited by the Mother of God, and truly AWESOME facts discovered about the tilma over the centuries. Plus, I share some lessons from Our Lady of Guadalupe that are just as relevant today. Let’s dive right in!

    Reaching the “Nones”: Fr. Mike Schmitz on Faith, Doubt, and Campus Ministry

    You know him, you love him! I am so happy to bring back my good friend Fr. Mike Schmitz. Did you know that, in addition to his podcasts and YouTube videos, Fr. Mike is a spiritual father to hundreds of students? It’s true! He has been the campus minister at the University of Minnesota Duluth Newman Center for 20 years! We talk about how campus ministry has changed, how to get through to the “nones” (those who identify with no religious affiliation), and we offer some hope and advice for parents who want to ensure that their college-aged and young adult children stay close to the Lord. Plus, I am so excited to share Fr. Mike’s newest adventure! The Newman Center at UMD has outgrown its very small space (the chapel can fit only 60 people!) and Fr. Mike is on a mission so that no soul at UMD has to be turned away for lack of space. UMD Newman is fundraising to build a new, amazing, HUGE facility that is a beacon of Catholicism on campus! My conversation with Fr. Mike is so blessed, as always! If you’re struggling with motivation and hope, no matter your state in life, please know that there is hope and consolation and immense JOY in our God. Support Fr. Mike’s mission today: https://bulldogcatholic.org/seeds-of-...

    The Christian Roots of Thanksgiving & The Power of Gratitude

    Happy Thanksgiving, guys! Before we dive into turkey, football, and pumpkin pie, let’s take a second to remember what we’re even celebrating in the first place—gratitude for all of the AMAZING gifts God has given to us. Even if you have had a very tough year, there are still fantastic blessings that the Lord has placed in your life. You may not realize this, but we actually OWE gratitude to God and the people around us, and that is a fantastic thing! In this one-on-one episode, I talk about the Christian roots of Thanksgiving, my recent AWESOME visit to Colby, Kansas, why practicing gratitude really RESHAPES our lives, and why just “being a good person” without God doesn’t cut it. Plus, we dive into a spicy Q & A session where I respond to some of your comments and questions on my recent videos. Don’t miss this uplifting and inspiring episode to get your mind and heart right before going into the holiday weekend. Happy Thanksgiving, and may your heart be filled with gratitude and JOY!

    How Sacred Art Is Fighting Evil: The Miraculous Work of Damien Walker

    Damien Walker is saving the world through beauty. In the aftermath of the catastrophic earthquake in his hometown of Christchurch, New Zealand in 2011, Damien began restoring the sacred statues in his local church. What started as a hobby became a “field hospital for sacred art,” and now Damien had the largest statuary in the Southern Hemisphere! We talk about how he uses beautiful sacred heart to bring souls to Christ, why beauty will save the world (and why the Devil despises it), how to combat the distractions of modern life with the timeless beauty of the Church, and most notably, Damien’s commission from the bishops of New Zealand to create the AMAZING image of Our Lady of New Zealand. And as always, don’t forget to like, share, and subscribe to our YouTube channel so you never miss an episode of the Chris Stefanick Show!
