In today’s gospel, we have the story of an appearance of Jesus to the frightened apostles in the upper room where there first reaction was that they were seeing a ghost. Jesus proved to them that he wasn’t a ghost by having them touch him and by eating a piece of fish in front of […]http://relevantradio-od.streamguys1.com/podcast/PR20210418.mp3Podcast: Play ...

Christ’s resurrection shows us our own destiny, that we were created to follow Jesus into risen life and into heaven. Many people don’t give heaven and their own resurrection much thought.  Ultimately, heaven is our home, our ultimate destination. http://relevantradio-od.streamguys1.com/podcast/PR20210417.mp3Podcast: Play in new window | DownloadSubscribe: RSShttp://relevantradio-od.streamguys1.com/podcast/PR20210417.mp3Podcast: Play ...

The Easter season is a time of great joy, but the entire life of a Christian should be one of joy, even in the midst of trial and suffering. Joy is deeper than the absence of pain and deeper than the presence of pleasure. http://relevantradio-od.streamguys1.com/podcast/PR20210415.mp3Podcast: Play in new window | DownloadSubscribe: RSShttp://relevantradio-od.streamguys1.com/podcast/PR20210415.mp3Podcast: Play ...

“For God so loved the world that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life.  For God sent the Son into the world, not to condemn the world, but that the world might be saved through him.” John 3:16-17 http://relevantradio-od.streamguys1.com/podcast/PR20210414.mp3Podcast: Play in new window | DownloadSubscribe: […]http://relevantradio-od.streamguys1.com/podcast/PR20210414.mp3Podcast: Play ...

Today,  the Church celebrates the feast of St. Martin I. He is the last pope to be martyred for the Faith and he died in the 7th century, long after the persecutions by Roman Emperors. He was arrested because he opposed a heresy of the time which the Emperor of Constantinople approved of. http://relevantradio-od.streamguys1.com/podcast/PR20210413.mp3Podcast: Play […]http://relevantradio-od.streamguys1.com/podcast/PR20210413.mp3Podcast: Play ...

Take, O Lord, and receive all my liberty, my memory, my understanding, and my entire will. Whatever I have or hold, You have given me; I restore it all to You and surrender it wholly to be governed by Your will.

In today’s gospel, we see how the authorities tell Peter and John to stop preaching. They refuse to stop because they are inspired by the Holy Spirit and know that they cannot keep the good news of Jesus Christ to themselves. http://relevantradio-od.streamguys1.com/podcast/PR20210410.mp3Podcast: Play in new window | DownloadSubscribe: RSShttp://relevantradio-od.streamguys1.com/podcast/PR20210410.mp3Podcast: Play ...

In today’s gospel, here the apostles are after the Resurrection, back fishing. Jesus suddenly appears on the shore and tells them where to cast the net. After this, they catch an abundance of fish, and John recognizes that it’s Jesus. http://relevantradio-od.streamguys1.com/podcast/PR20210409.mp3Podcast: Play in new window | DownloadSubscribe: RSShttp://relevantradio-od.streamguys1.com/podcast/PR20210409.mp3Podcast: Play ...

One of the common reactions of those who met Jesus after the Resurrection was to think that they were seeing a ghost, and not Jesus risen in the flesh. This is very understandable given how He was so brutally put to death just days earlier. http://relevantradio-od.streamguys1.com/podcast/PR20210408.mp3Podcast: Play in new window | DownloadSubscribe: RSShttp://relevantradio-od.streamguys1.com/podcast/PR20210408.mp3Podcast: Play ...

In today’s gospel, we see yet again how difficult it is to recognize our Lord after the resurrection. Today’s gospel is from Luke chapter 24. Two of Jesus’ disciples are on the road to Emmaus when Jesus suddenly appears among them, but they do not recognize him. http://relevantradio-od.streamguys1.com/podcast/PR20210407.mp3Podcast: Play in new window | DownloadSubscribe: RSShttp://relevantradio-od.streamguys1.com/podcast/PR20210407.mp3Podcast: Play ...
