Advertise on podcast: Porch Time with the Padres

The padres continue to celebrate their 75th episode by discussing five proofs for the existence of God.  Will they do justice to St. Thomas Aquinas, or leave him shaking his haloed head?

Time to celebrate!  This is the 75th episode of Porch Time with the Padres!  Fr. Chris and Fr. Labenz each share episodes that have left fond memories, thank the listeners, and give all the glory to God.  Then, they embark on the adventure of flushing out St. Thomas Aquinas' five proofs for God's existence.

Grace is the conversation topic on the back porch this week: what is it and why is it vitally important for us?  Perhaps Fr. Labenz falls from grace as he tries to defend "bro country."

Two listeners have sent in questions to the back porch!  This week the padres chat about how we can thank the Lord for answered prayers and how certain they are that they're saved.

In the second part of their conversation, Fr. Jarrod, Fr. Chris, and Fr. Labenz take a deep dive into how evangelization, discipleship, and stewardship fit together.  Fr. Jarrod masterfully highlights the importance of relationship, the God-given foundation for all of these.

The padres welcome Fr. Jarrod Lies, the Vicar for Evangelization, Discipleship, and Stewardship, to the back porch in this first of a two-part episode.  Fr. Jarrod shares some funny memories of working with Fr. Labenz, then recounts the experiences that led him to this important position in the great Diocese of Wichita.

This week the padres welcome a good friend and mentor to the back porch: Fr. Jerome Spexarth!  Fr. Jerome shares some of his insights on deliverance ministry.

Join Bishop Kemme and the padres for part two of a great conversation!  This week Bishop shares his vision for the next chapter in the story of the Diocese of Wichita.

Bishop Kemme is back!  He joins the padres for the first of a two-part conversation.  Could this be the Day of Reckoning for Fr. Chris?  Listen in to find out!

The Padres recap Fr. Labenz's hard work at Steubenville and then dive into their top two favorite psalms.

Fr. Jorge and Fr. Jesus are back for another round of recounting memories from the padres' trip to Mexico City!

Get ready, listeners!  Fr. Jorge Lopez and Fr. Jesus Banuelos are on the back porch this week!  Together, the four priests reminisce about their recent trip to Mexico City to see the miraculous tilma of Our Lady of Guadalupe.  It's a joy for Fr. Labenz and Fr. Chris to be joined by such good friends, los padres más padres ("the coolest priests")!

After a two-week summer break, Fr. Chris and Fr. Labenz are back!  With a nod to the upcoming Fourth of July holiday, the padres chat about the topic of freedom.  They attempt to answer an earlier question that stumped them, but do they actually come to a conclusion??

Fr. David Voss joins the padres again for another leisurely podcast on their vacation in Ogden, Kansas.  Listen in as the priests unveil the beauty of the Sacred Heart, touch on its connections to the Eucharist, and talk about what real love is.  Fr. Labenz and Fr. Chris announce they'll be taking a short break for the next week or two in order to be fully present in summer retreats and family time, but join them again soon for more Porch Time!

Fr. David Voss is back!  The padres are taking a long weekend to rest and catch up with him on the heels of his deployment in Poland.
