    14th Sunday in Ordinary Time - 06/29/2026

    This episode of Be Not Afraid on Iowa Catholic Radio brings together two major occasions: the Solemnity of Saints Peter and Paul and the 14th Sunday in Ordinary Time, airing on the eve of America's 250th Independence Day. Fr. Fabian and Fr. Bruce Riebe open with the feast of Sts. Peter and Paul — a holy day of obligation in the Byzantine Catholic Church and a solemnity in the Latin Church worldwide. They discuss Peter as the rock and vicar of Christ, his martyrdom in Rome as the foundation of the papacy, and Paul's dramatic Damascus Road conversion that made him one of the most fervent evangelists in Church history. The hosts note that in the Byzantine tradition, parishes are named Saints Peter and Paul together — honoring both pillars as inseparable. The conversation connects the feast to July 4th and America's 250th anniversary, including the USCCB's recent consecration of the United States to the Sacred Heart of Jesus at their conference in Orlando, Florida. Drawing on Pope Pius's encyclical on Sacred Heart devotion and Pope Francis's Dilexit Nos, the hosts reflect on what true independence means: not autonomy from God, but freedom from sin through Christ's death and resurrection. The Gospel of Matthew 11:25–30 anchors the final segment — Christ's invitation to the burdened and weary. Fr. Bruce reflects on the yoke as a symbol of balanced burden-bearing, offering pastoral encouragement to those carrying heavy crosses. Fr. Fabian warns against the pride that closes the heart to God's wisdom and mercy.

    13th Sunday in Ordinary Time - 06/22/2026

    With the Feast of Saint John the Baptist just days away (June 24), Fr. Fabian and Fr. Bruce Riebe unpack the profound legacy of the Forerunner — his fasting, prayer, poverty, humility, and total obedience to God's call. The hosts connect John's ascetical witness to the ongoing Peter and Paul Fast observed in the Byzantine Catholic Church, making the case that fasting is not an ancient relic but a living spiritual practice for today. The conversation turns to Saint Cyril of Alexandria (feast day June 27), whose defense of Christ's unified person at the Council of Ephesus (431 AD) made possible the honorific title Theotokos — Birthgiver of God — for the Blessed Virgin Mary. Fr. Fabian and Fr. Bruce trace how that council shaped Eastern Rite traditions, from Byzantine to Coptic to Syriac, and how those traditions came to the United States. The Sunday Gospel (Matthew 10:37–42) anchors it all: whoever does not take up his cross and follow Christ is not worthy of him. The hosts call listeners to be willing cross-bearers — inspired by John the Baptist, confirmed by the sacrifice of Christ, and sustained by the Holy Spirit.

    12th Sunday in Ordinary Time - 06/15/2026

    This Father's Day episode of Be Not Afraid on Iowa Catholic Radio opens a fascinating window into the married priesthood of the Byzantine Catholic Church. Fr. Bruce and Fr. Fabian discuss the practical realities these priests navigate — from finances and child-rearing to spiritual discipline and, in rare cases, divorce. Fr. Bruce shares his personal discernment between marriage and celibacy, offering an honest reflection on why he felt called to give himself fully to priestly life. The hosts also unpack the 12th Sunday in Ordinary Time Gospel (Matthew 10:26–33), in which Jesus urges his disciples to fear no one but God. Fr. Bruce recalls his Covid-era mantra — "faith driven, Eucharistic centered, and not fear based" — and explains how that spirit gave rise to the name Be Not Afraid. The episode closes with a meditation on St. Joseph as the perfect model for fathers, stepfathers included, and a blessing for all dads on their special day. Readings: Matthew 10:26–33 | Psalm 34 Learn more at IowaCatholicRadio.com #BeNotAfraid #IowaCatholicRadio #FathersDay #CatholicPodcast #ByzantineCatholic #MarriedPriests #SaintJoseph #OrdinaryTime #CatholicFaith #FearNotFaith #CatholicDads #HolyEucharist #GospelReflection #CatholicRadio Iowa Catholic Radio Network Shows: Be Not Afraid with Fr.
