Catholic Stuff
Interesting and diverse topics well thought out, but presented in an upbeat contemporary manner. Well worth anyone's time. Take a few in and then decide. Thanks to the hosts !!!
Focus on the Topic
Not sure what the message is. Been looking for a Catholic program that is focused on helping me understand and appreciate more my Catholic faith, and grow mature in faith. The first 5 mins of the podcast is way off the main topic. Can it be more direct and focused? You don’t need one hour podcast to evangelize in a more impactful manner. Please delete this review soon you read this. Thank you.
