The Church and The World | Dr. Grzegorz Ignatik
In this episode, Logos discusses the nature of The Christian Church and its relationship to the world. It describes the Church’s salvific truths as well as affirms the need for the Church, if it is to fulfill Christ's command to teach the nations, to enter and recognize the world as something fundamentally good.
Is the world evil? Does the world have anything to offer The Church?
Maybe, the best way for The Church to avoid confusion, sin, and struggle is for Her to fall into Herself and build a society that only includes Her members?
Yet, Jesus Christ challenges and obliges the Church to teach all of the nations…so…

Logical Worship | The Liturgical Nature of Man
In this episode, we dive into the need for the liturgy and rituals. St. Paul talks about humanity needing to enter into "logical worship"...what is he talking about?
Wait, isn't the Catholic Church just a cult? Those vestments, those middle aged men called "priests", the kneeling and standing, the funky smelling smoke, the weird repetitive prayers all smack of a weird cult; therefore, its pointless.
But, is that so? Why do worship God in this way? Isn't the importance of the Christian life to "have a personal relationship with Jesus Christ?"
Well...let's talk about that...

Cabrini | 'The Feminist' | Movie Review
In recent times, we have experienced two major films: 1) Dune: Part Two and 2) 'Cabrini’ by Angel Studios. Timothee Chalamat, Zendaya Coleman, John Lithgow, Cristiana Dell'Anna all showed up and showed out. And, while these two films are wildly different, they were similar in that they were promoted to be revolutionary films.
Were they? Did they set a new standard for movies?
Regarding Cabrini, did it set a new standard for movies about saints? Or, was it a “flop”, a film that, as criticized, promoted feminist propaganda?
In this episode, we uncover the significance behind Cabrini - a captivating film with profound insights. To do this, we reflect on some of its quotes, characters, and artistic brilliance.
We hope that our insights, in the end, bring you to an appreciation for good cinema, St. Cabrini, and, above all, Jesus Christ. Tune in for an immersive experience that celebrates the creativity of Angel Studios and the power of a saints life.
