    Indefinite Podcast Pause

    This indefinite podcast pause comes with sadness and great joy. For ten years the Catholic Link podcast has engaged Catholics with faith filled content and enabled them to grow deeper in their faith. It is sad to see the podcast end, but we must not be too sorrowful knowing what good the Lord has done with the podcast. We thank all the listeners, the guests, and donors who made the podcast what it is. God bless you! Previous Episode Listen to the previous episode to learn how to Be a great husband because your wife needs you. A man often lists his priorities as: God, family, then work. How much time do they dedicate to each of those items? So often work and sleep get the most time and our families, and in particular our wives, get the time that’s left. Devin Schadt, of Fathers of St. Joseph, joins the podcast to provide practical tips for fostering the primordial relationship of a man’s marriage: the relationship with his wife. Our wives desire four things: security, strength, closeness, and spiritual leadership. The husbands of the family provide those needs and the love shared between a man and wife passes down to the children and the world at large.

    The World’s Most Famous Exorcist: Fr. Gabriele Amorth w/ Michael Lichens

    The world's most famous exorcist: Fr. Gabriele Amorth by popular consensus, recounts God's victory over Satan with his book God Most Powerful. Michael Lichens joins the podcast today with Fr. George Elliott to discuss the remarkable life of Fr. Gabriele Amorth. Exorcist in the Diocese of Rome. Fr. Amorth lived from 1925-2016 and received the Sacrament of Holy Orders in 1954 after service in World War II and a journalism career. Michael Lichens reminds us that we are called to enjoy the victory God has over evil, rather than giving evil and the Devil undue regard and notoriety. We keep evil at bay by performing works of charity and resisting, in particular, our temptations.

Previous Episode Listen to the previous episode to learn about Transhumanism is the belief that humans are in control of their own progress and evolution as a species. It advocates for the augmentation of the human body and bodily functions with technology. This line of thought can lead to a disincarnating of the human soul from the body with sci-fi like technology. Today, a lot of the proposed technologies are not feesible. However, the underlying philosophy that informs the desire to pursuit these technologies questions what it means to be free, what it means to have a body, and what it means to be human. Grayson Quay, author of The Transhumanist Temptation How Technology and Ideology Are Reshaping Humanity—And How to Resist, joins Fr. George to discuss some of these philosophies. And how we are to think rightly and what the Church has to say about such technologies. You can follow Grayson Quay on X @hemingquay. Links Order your copy of Why Christians Can Wear Pants here. Fr.

Previous Episode Listen to the previous episode to learn about how IVF violates the dignity and the rights of a child to be conceived within the loving context of the marital embrace and commodifies a child, bought and sold. To artificially conceive a child in a laboratory introduces disunity of the marital act from the procreative act as well as introduces many ethical paradoxes. Stacy Trasancos, author of IVF is Not the Way: The False Promises of Artificial Procreation, joins the podcast with Fr. George to discuss the ethical problems of IVF. She highlights that children are a gift, not objects to pick and choose how and when we want them. Her own Aunt and Uncle experienced infertility and chose to adopt and foster many children over the course of their marriage. They provided a loving home for these children to know that they are loved and valued. In that way, the Aunt and Uncle’s infertility became a gift that gave life to those children.

Listen to the previous episode to learn about Non-exclusive dating is the first stage each Catholic should start relationships in. This stage does not suggest having multiple committed romantic relationships at the same time. Rather, non-exclusive dating is simply getting to know others. And discerning if that person would make a good boyfriend or girlfriend. This period should last no more than three months, should involve little to no physical embraces, and must be communicated to the other people involved. Rachel Canto of Pretty Good Catholic suggests to be open with other people that you aren’t ready to commit to being in an exclusive relationship yet, but after a period of time would be open to entering one with the other person. To learn more about this concept, purchase the book Pretty Good Catholic: How to Find, Date, and Marry Someone Who Shares Your Faith.

    Our Lady of Mount Carmel and the Brown Scapular: A Throwback

    Our Lady of Mount Carmel is celebrated on July 16th. In this episode of the Catholic Link podcast. Fr. Rob discusses the devotion of the Brown Scapular. Our Lady appeared to St. Simon Stock and gave him the brown scapular. She promised that no one who wore it would suffer eternal fire. Fr. Rob discusses how one can live a life similar to a Carmelite and wear the brown scapular. As a child, Fr. Rob didn't understand the devotion to the Carmelites. Carmelites practice fasts and penances. The History of the Scapular Further Information Fr. Rob encourages the laity who wear the brown scapular to adapt some of the Carmelite devotions to their lives. One could read scripture and meditate, fast from quality of food or technology time. With these practice and wearing the brown scapular, one unites their work and prayer with the sanctifying graces God offers. Carmelites engage in grueling fasts. But lay people have different circumstances that make such fasts difficult. Use discernment and prudence to create devotional practices.
