Salt and Light - Episode 13: Kids in Church- Cry rooms, children’s church, and the “nones”

Are you annoyed by kids in church? Are you the parent of those children in church and feel the glares of those who your kids are annoying? When we come together to worship in Church, we are surrounded by dozens of people who are different than we- in age, gender, race, financial status, etc., and yet we are all facing the same altar and worshipping the same God. 52% of Catholics leave the Catholic Church, and only 11% return according to a Pew Research study. There are many more statistics confirming this conclusion and many more which illuminate additional alarming statistics regarding the rising number of people who classify themselves as "no religious affiliation" aka the "nones". There are waves of evangelism efforts to help the "nones" return to the love of God, which is essential of course, but in this podcast, Chuck and Annie will argue that not losing people in the first place is the key. How do we do that? We listen to Jesus' words in the Gospels when we discusses children. Tune in to this podcast to find out where the problem lies and what you can do as a parent, grandparent, and/ or member of a religious community or parish.

Salt and Light - Episode 56: I Love you, but I don’t like you

Do you have someone in your life with whom you don’t get along? Are there people who you feel like you just “click” and others you simply don’t? Are there people you’d rather hang out with and people you just don’t? In this episode, Chuck and Annie explore what it means to Love as “God is Love” and what it means to “like” someone and why we don’t “like” everyone. We are most certainly called to Love one another (to will the good of another as other), but are we expected to also “like” everyone, too? Join us!

Salt and Light - Episode 54: Circumcision, Candlemas, et al

With an all-too ironic opening to the show, Chuck and Annie give you some updates on our friend "Bob" being persecuted for his Catholic faith in his country, Chuck's on-the-mend black eye delt by an accidental 4-year old knee to the face, and then dive DEEP into this week's topic! After the holiday hangover and into the doldrums of winter, it's all too easy to forget that there is much more to celebrate and "ponder in our hearts." This past Saturday (40 days after Christmas) the Church celebrated Candlemas, during which we recall the Presentation of Jesus in the temple and Blessed Mother Mary's purification. In our modern age, this story can seem in many ways unrelatable, and after spouting off the "who, what, where, and when," we simply move on. However, this story is rich in meaning. Join us for this exegesis! Want to WATCH this episode with bonus content before and after the episode PLUS get free gifts, exclusive content, and more?! Vi...
