America’s 250th & What Chesterton Saw in America w/ Susan Hanssen | Ep. 197

Did you know that G.K. Chesterton visited America 100 years ago and wrote about his observations and encountered in the book What I Saw in America? In honor of the 250th Anniversary of the United States of America, Dr. Dauphinais sits down with Dr. Susan Hanssen, associate professor of history at the University of Dallas, to discuss the history of the country through G.K. Chesterton’s eyes. Together they unpack what Chesterton meant when he said America was “the only nation in the world that is founded upon a creed" of equality, freedom, and governance as well as his prescient and prophetic cautions about the progressivism of the post-WWI era and its creeping totalitarianism and servitude. Finally, they consider how Chesterton distinguished between what he called America's "shadows" and the great "light of America" that he thought the rest of the world needed to see.

The Summa for Beginners: Aquinas and Cooperation with Evil w/ Fr. Ryan Connors | Ep. 195

What is expected of Catholics when every company, institution and system seems morally compromised? Can Catholics buy coffee from companies with immoral policies? Can Catholics pay taxes to governments that fund evil? How are Catholics supposed to live in the world but not be of the world?In this episode of The Catholic Theology Show, host Michael Dauphinais is joined by Fr. Ryan Connors to explore one of the most difficult questions in Catholic moral theology through the wisdom of Thomas Aquinas. Drawing from his book ‘Rethinking Cooperation with Evil: A Virtue-Based Approach,’ Fr. Connors explains why Aquinas approaches morality not as a system of rules but a path towards freedom, virtue and happiness that ultimately leads to Eternal life. If you struggle with moral anxiety and seek clarity on Catholic ethics or want to better understand virtue and freedom, this episode is for you.Resources:Rethinking Cooperation with Evil: A Virtue-Based Approach by Fr.

What Moses Teaches Us about Jesus w/Steve Ray | Ep. 194

What does Moses have to do with Jesus—and why does it matter for Catholics today? In this episode of The Catholic Theology Show, host Michael Dauphinais welcomes back author, filmmaker, and Catholic convert Steve Ray for a sweeping exploration of the life of Saint Moses and his enduring significance for understanding Christ, the Church, and the Sacraments. Drawing from Scripture, Church tradition, and decades of leading pilgrimages through the Holy Land, Steve unpacks how the story of Moses serves as the foundation for understanding Jesus as the New Moses and the Christian life as a New Exodus. Together, Michael and Steve explore the burning bush, the divine name “I AM,” the Passover, the crossing of the Red Sea, the manna in the wilderness, the Tabernacle, and the Promised Land—revealing how each points forward to Christ and finds its fulfillment in the New Covenant. The conversation also highlights how the early Church interpreted the Exodus as the pattern for Christian initiation, illuminating the biblical roots of Baptism, the Eucharist, Confession, and Holy Orders. Along the way, Steve explains why the Old Testament is essential for understanding the New Testament, why Moses should be honored as a saint, and how the entire biblical story comes alive when viewed through the lens of typology. Whether you're new to Scripture or have studied the Bible for years, this episode offers a rich and accessible look at how God’s plan of salvation unfolds from Moses to Christ—and why the Exodus remains the defining story of every Christian journey from slavery to freedom, from death to life, and from earth to the Promised Land of heaven.

Benedict XVI and the Liturgy w/ Fr. Joseph Fessio, SJ | Ep. 193

The sacred liturgy is not a matter of personal preference or style it is the living heart of the Church’s worship and the clearest expression of her faith in Christ. In this episode of The Catholic Theology Show, Ave Maria University welcomes Jesuit priest, publisher, and theologian Fr. Joseph Fessio, founder of Ignatius Press and founding provost of Ave Maria University. Drawing on decades of theological reflection and his collaboration with Joseph Ratzinger (later Pope Benedict XVI), Fr. Fessio reflects on Sacrosanctum Concilium and the meaning of actuosa participatio. He argues that true participation in the Mass is primarily interior—an attentive, living union with Christ in His sacrifice—and explores the continuity of the Church’s liturgical tradition, from Latin and Gregorian chant to the Roman Canon and the orientation of prayer. The conversation also engages Benedict XVI’s vision of the “reform of the reform” and the call to recover reverence, silence, and sacred order in the Eucharist.

How to Stop Gossiping and Begin Praising God w/Fr. Gregory Pine, O.P. | Ep. 192

Speech is made for communion—it’s meant to bind people together in truth and charity—but in a fallen world it so often does the opposite, slipping into distortion, division, and harm. In this episode of The Catholic Theology Show, Dr. Michael Dauphinais sits down with Dominican theologian Fr. Gregory Pine to discuss his book Training the Tongue: Growing Beyond the Sins of Speech. Drawing on the Epistle of James and the moral psychology of St. Thomas Aquinas, Fr. Pine reframes the task at hand: the goal isn’t merely to “tame” the tongue as if it were a wild animal, but to train it—forming it through virtue so that truthful, charitable speech becomes second nature, and patterns like lying, gossip, and complaint gradually lose their grip.

Finding God in Nature and in the Church w/Fr. John Nepil | Ep. 191

Why do the most beautiful places on earth sometimes fill us with deep awe and wonder and yet other times leave us feeling empty? In this episode, Dr. Michael Dauphinais speaks with Fr. John Nepil about his book To Heights and Unto Depths, exploring how the beauty of nature can either deepen faith or become a substitute for it. Drawing from a 486-mile trek on the Colorado Trail, Fr. Nepil reflects on suffering, community, and the search for meaning, while addressing modern philosophies that promote self-creation over communion with God. The conversation also touches on hell, conversion, and how practices like prayer and the sacraments help us rediscover a life rooted in Christ.

Why Didn't C. S. Lewis Become Catholic? w/ Joseph Pearce | Ep. 190

Why did a writer who defended so many deeply Catholic ideas stop just short of becoming Catholic—and what can that tell us about faith, history, and influence? In this episode of the Catholic Theology Show, Dr. Michael Dauphinais and ⁠Joseph Pearce⁠ ⁠ explore the fascinating tension at the heart of C.S. Lewis’ life and thought. Mr. Pearce is a Visiting Professor Literature at Ave Maria University and author of C. S. Lewis and the Catholic Church, published by ⁠Ignatius Press⁠. They highlight why Lewis remains essential reading for Catholics, pointing to his strong affirmation of doctrines like purgatory, sacramental life, and the inseparable unity of faith and reason. Pearce and Dauphinais reflect on the paradox that Lewis’ distance from Catholicism may have expanded his reach, making him a trusted voice for non-Catholics while quietly leading many readers toward the Church. While also highlighting Pearce's books: C.S Lewis and the Catholic Church⁠ Relevant Episodes: Why Catholics Should read the Classics w/Joseph Pearce | Ep. 184 Defending the Faith Today with C.S Lewis' Mere Christianity w/Dr. Andrew Swafford | Ep. 169 The Four Loves of C.S Lewis w/David Bates | Ep. 109

The Lost Virtue of Manliness w/Fr.James Mason | Ep. 186

What does it really mean to be a man in a culture that often confuses strength with dominance and softness with compassion? In this episode of The Catholic Theology Show, Michael Dauphinais welcomes Fr. James Mason for a focused discussion on a largely overlooked challenge in priestly formation: the vice of effeminacy. Drawing on his article, “The Forgotten Vice in Seminary Formation,” Fr. Mason explains effeminacy in the Thomistic sense as a lack of fortitude—an undue softness that hinders authentic masculine virtue. He situates this vice within a broader crisis of masculinity, outlining a continuum between healthy masculinity—marked by sacrificial love, perseverance, and responsibility—and its distortions: effeminacy on one side and machismo on the other. The conversation also highlights the complementary vocations of men and women, emphasizing masculine self-sacrifice modeled in Christ. Grounded in Scripture, tradition, and recent Church history, Fr. Mason offers practical ways to cultivate fortitude, including discipline, self-denial, meaningful work, and faithful commitment to one’s duties. Ultimately, the episode presents true manhood not as toughness, but as sacrificial love in service of the Church and the common good.
