    Leaving a Legacy of Faith: How Catholics Can Build a Lasting Spiritual Heritage

    What does it mean to leave a legacy as a Catholic? On the Sunrise Morning Show, Matt Rinkmeyer of the Catholic Community Foundation explores a Catholic “theology of legacy” and how our faith, our material gifts, and even the things we leave behind can continue to point others toward Christ. From the Church’s teaching on the body and soul to the legacy of Christian art, churches, schools, Scripture, and charitable giving, Matt explains how Catholics can intentionally leave behind something that helps build the Kingdom of God for generations to come.

    Who Is Jesus? The Question at the Heart of Christianity

    Father Jonathan Duncan of the Diocese of Charleston joins Matt Swaim to reflect on the readings for the 21st Sunday in Ordinary Time, especially Peter’s confession of Jesus as the Christ and the Son of the living God. Father Jonathan explains why the question “Who is Jesus?” must come before every other theological, moral, or apologetic question. The conversation explores Jesus’ gift of the Church, Peter’s role as the rock, the papacy, and the reality that even those entrusted with leadership can become either “solid rocks” or “stumbling stones.” Ultimately, the discussion returns to the central truth of Christianity: if Jesus is truly Lord, then everything we do matters.

    Billionaire Invests $4 Billion in Brain Injury Research: A New Hope for the Culture of Life

    Bobby Schindler of the Life & Hope Network joins Matt Swaim to discuss billionaire Bill Ackman’s decision to invest nearly $4 billion in a new institute dedicated to brain health, rehabilitation, recovery, human optimization, and longevity. Ackman’s personal experience following his daughter Lucy’s devastating brain injury inspired him to help other families facing similar circumstances. Bobby explains why this investment offers renewed hope for people with catastrophic brain injuries and could challenge the tendency to give up on patients too quickly. The conversation also explores human dignity, medical research, and the importance of putting resources toward helping people recover rather than simply accepting the limitations of today’s medicine.

    Discovering Eternal Wisdom: Why St. Louis de Montfort Leads Us to Jesus Through Mary

    Greg Willits joins the Sunrise Morning Show to explore the fourth and final means St. Louis de Montfort presents for obtaining Eternal Wisdom: receiving Jesus through His Blessed Mother, Mary. Drawing from God Doesn’t Hate Me After All: Discovering Louis de Montfort’s Love of Eternal Wisdom, Greg explains why entrusting ourselves completely to Mary is not about taking anything away from Jesus, but allowing her to lead us more perfectly to Him. He also unpacks de Montfort’s challenging language about becoming Mary’s servants and how Marian consecration can help us recognize the ways Jesus and Mary have been working in our lives all along.

    The Keys to the Kingdom: Isaiah, Peter, and the Authority of the Church

    On the Sunrise Morning Show, Annie Mitchell welcomes Father Hezekias Carnazzo of the Institute of Catholic Culture to reflect on the readings for the 21st Sunday in Ordinary Time. Father Hezekias explains the fascinating connection between Isaiah's account of Shebna and Eliakim and Jesus' words to Peter in Matthew 16: “I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven.” By understanding the ancient role of the key bearer, listeners can see more clearly why Jesus gives Peter a unique responsibility to oversee and protect His kingdom. The conversation explores Jesus as the promised King, Peter's confession of Christ, the authority entrusted to him, and Christ's promise that “the gates of hell shall not prevail” against His Church. A rich look at Scripture, the papacy, and Christ's enduring promise to His Church. Support the show: https://www.sacredheartradio.com/donate-now/ See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    Pope Leo XIV on Sacred Music: Reverence, Beauty, and the Purpose of Worship

    On the Sunrise Morning Show, Matt Swaim welcomes Andrew Pedeprin from the Spes Solii Institute to discuss Pope Leo XIV’s recent reflections on music and worship. Andrew shares his own musical journey from Methodist and evangelical worship to Anglicanism and ultimately a deeper appreciation for the Catholic tradition of sacred music. He and Matt explore the important distinction between musical taste and genuine reverence, and why the Church’s music should ultimately serve the worship of God rather than simply imitate whatever is popular in the culture. The conversation looks at Pope Leo’s appreciation for Gregorian chant and the organ, the role of emotion and cultural expression in prayer, and the importance of music that is worthy of the liturgy. Matt and Andrew also discuss why young people can actually appreciate the fact that church sounds and feels different from the world. A thoughtful conversation about sacred music, worship, reverence, culture, and why the Church shouldn't be afraid to sound like the Church.

All for Jesus, all for Mary, all to imitate thee, O patriarch St. Joseph! This shall be my motto for life and eternity. Amen. ***** Full list of guests Support the show: https://www.sacredheartradio.com/donate-now/ See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
