The Great Rosary Campaign is an ongoing prayer and penance campaign for the conversion and strengthening of both Catholic and non-Catholic leaders. For this week's Great Rosary Campaign, pray for the United States of America and the upcoming elections. We are in an incredibly dark and dysfunctional age. Ask Our Lady's prayers that as much good may be maintained and advanced as possible, given our state. The SUGGESTED PENANCE this week is a 24 hour water fast (adjusted for your state in life). In these dark times, we must fight evil with the most powerful weapons we have. The Rosary is foremost among them. Join the Great Rosary Campaign today at: www.GreatRosaryCampaign.com. Countless Saints and Popes have told us that the Rosary is incredibly powerful for three things in particular: Keeping the FaithMoral renovationConversions of non-CatholicsThe Great Rosary Campaign is also based on several biblical themes and principles. First, PRAY FOR OUR BRETHREN. “Pray for one another…” (Jas. 5:16). “So then, as we have opportunity, let us do good to all men, and especially to those who are of the household of faith" (Gal. 6:10). Second, PRAY FOR OUR ENEMIES. “You have heard that it was said, ‘You shall love your neighbor and hate your enemy.’ But I say to you, Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, so that you may be sons of your Father who is in heaven" (Matt. 5:43-44). Third, PRAY FOR ALL MEN, PARTICULARLY LEADERS AND THOSE IN AUTHORITY. “First of all, then, I urge that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and thanksgivings be made for all men, or kings and all who are in high positions…” (1 Tim. 2:1-2). Fourth, GOING INTO BATTLE WITH THE ARK. When the ancient Israelites came to Jericho, God didn't tell them to besiege the city. Instead, He told them to march around it with the Ark of the Covenant seven times, and on the seventh the walls would fall. We will now "march" in prayer for seven days with the New Ark of the Covenant, Our Lady, through the Rosary. We pray in hope that on the seventh day, a day especially devoted to Our Lady (Saturday), extraordinary graces of conversion will be given to those we are praying for. Fifth, EVANGELISM AND APOLOGETICS = LOVE + ARGUMENTS + PRAYER + PENANCE. Ultimately it is God who reveals Himself to a soul, and empowers them to say "yes" to Him by His grace. He chooses to use us, but He does not have to. We must remember that as we evangelize and defend the Faith, our arguments will be fruitless unless informed by love (charity), and reinforced by prayer and penance. Sixth, RETURNING GOOD FOR EVIL. “Do not return evil for evil, or reviling for reviling; but on the contrary bless, for to this you have been called, that you may obtain a blessing" (1 Pet. 3:9).

In this episode, we cover the rousing call by Pope Leo XIII to devotion to Our Lady through the Holy Rosary from the encyclical that established this month (October) as the Month of the Rosary: Supremi Apostolatus Officio: On Devotion to the Rosary (September 1, 1883).

October, the month of the Holy Rosary of the Blessed Virgin Mary, has begun. This week, we obtained an incredible sermon from a dear priest friend of ours, warning against spiritual mediocrity, the URGENT need to embrace the high calling of becoming a saint, and the necessity of praying the daily Rosary to do so. While he must remain anonymous, we received his permission to deliver his sermon in video form in order to share its message with as many souls as possible.

The Great Rosary Campaign is an ongoing prayer and penance campaign for the conversion and strengthening of both Catholic and non-Catholic leaders. For this week's Great Rosary Campaign, let us pray for all the new converts, and that many more would join their ranks, as they prepare to come into full communion with the Catholic Church this Easter! Let us pray the Rosary with particular zeal during this Month of the Rosary, remembering the great victory of Christendom against the Mohammedans hordes at the Battle of Lepanto on October 7, 1571. If the Rosary could obtain such victories for the outer man, imagine how much more for the inner man. The SUGGESTED PENANCE this week is a Holy Hour before Our Lord in the Blessed Sacrament.

In this episode, we interview Dr. David Anders, who played a profound role in Joshua Charles's conversion. After attending the famed evangelical Wheaton College, and pursuing a doctorate in order to disprove the Catholic Faith, he came out Catholic. The reason: he saw that the "Reformation" was not recovering ancient Christianity, but radically departing from it.

In this Eucharist Snapshot, we cover an ancient bishop's vision of worthy and unworthy souls receiving the Eucharist, one radiant with heavenly splendor, the other grotesque, ghastly and hellish. In short, he saw the reality of Catholic truth when it comes to how we receive the Eucharist, which is Christ's Body, Blood, Soul, and Divinity.

The Great Rosary Campaign is an ongoing prayer and penance campaign for the conversion and strengthening of both Catholic and non-Catholic leaders. For this week's Great Rosary Campaign, let us pray for the conversion of billionaire venture capitalist and entrepreneur behind Pay Pal, Palantir, etc., Peter Thiel. The SUGGESTED PENANCE this week is a Holy Hour before the Blessed Sacrament, the Body, Blood, Soul, and Divinity of Our Lord in the Holy Eucharist. In these dark times, we must fight evil with the most powerful weapons we have. The Rosary is foremost among them. Join the Great Rosary Campaign today at: www.GreatRosaryCampaign.com. Countless Saints and Popes have told us that the Rosary is incredibly powerful for three things in particular: Keeping the FaithMoral renovationConversions of non-CatholicsThe Great Rosary Campaign is also based on several biblical themes and principles. First, PRAY FOR OUR BRETHREN. “Pray for one another…” (Jas. 5:16). “So then, as we have opportunity, let us do good to all men, and especially to those who are of the household of faith" (Gal. 6:10). Second, PRAY FOR OUR ENEMIES. “You have heard that it was said, ‘You shall love your neighbor and hate your enemy.’ But I say to you, Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, so that you may be sons of your Father who is in heaven" (Matt. 5:43-44). Third, PRAY FOR ALL MEN, PARTICULARLY LEADERS AND THOSE IN AUTHORITY. “First of all, then, I urge that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and thanksgivings be made for all men, or kings and all who are in high positions…” (1 Tim. 2:1-2). Fourth, GOING INTO BATTLE WITH THE ARK. When the ancient Israelites came to Jericho, God didn't tell them to besiege the city. Instead, He told them to march around it with the Ark of the Covenant seven times, and on the seventh the walls would fall. We will now "march" in prayer for seven days with the New Ark of the Covenant, Our Lady, through the Rosary. We pray in hope that on the seventh day, a day especially devoted to Our Lady (Saturday), extraordinary graces of conversion will be given to those we are praying for. Fifth, EVANGELISM AND APOLOGETICS = LOVE + ARGUMENTS + PRAYER + PENANCE. Ultimately it is God who reveals Himself to a soul, and empowers them to say "yes" to Him by His grace. He chooses to use us, but He does not have to. We must remember that as we evangelize and defend the Faith, our arguments will be fruitless unless informed by love (charity), and reinforced by prayer and penance. Sixth, RETURNING GOOD FOR EVIL. “Do not return evil for evil, or reviling for reviling; but on the contrary bless, for to this you have been called, that you may obtain a blessing" (1 Pet. 3:9).
