The 4th Sunday of Advent. Join us for Episode 28 of How to Speak Catholic, as we prepare for Christmas, reflecting on Isaiah 7 and Matthew 1.
What's up with Ahaz?
And what did Joseph really think about Mary being pregnant with Jesus?
Remember - details matter, and it's the details that will turn your appreciation for Joseph up to an 11!
A truly Catholic medical school? Join us for Episode 27 of How To Speak Catholic, as we interview Dr. George Mychaskiw, an Eastern Rite Ukrainian Catholic, confronting the Culture of Death with the Culture of Life - from the inside!
In a world where abortion, euthanasia, in-vitro fertilization, sterilization, and contraception are touted as "freedoms," the existential truth of God's love and our human dignity are no longer being taught to physicians. Dr. Mychaskiw, a pediatric cardiac anesthesiologist, aims to change that. By raising up truly Catholic physicians, he is taking the first steps in a marathon to change the world for the better. But he needs help!
In this episode, we discuss the challenges of the Culture of Death, and how we can recapture our Catholic identity, our Human identity, by embracing truth, goodness, and beauty.

The Second Sunday in Advent. Join us for Episode 26 of "How to Speak Catholic," a reflection on the Gospel reading from Matthew 3 for the 2nd Sunday of Advent.
How does some basic understanding of a few Aramaic words impact our understanding of John the Baptist's words in this Gospel? How does Genesis 3 tie into this reading?
Let's dig into the meat of this reading and see how it helps prepare us for the next step in our spiritual journey.
First, sorry about the audio - I was trying a new setup, and apparently, I need to make some improvements.
In this episode, we touch on how the Church set up Scripture for the purposes of the Mass and how the Church has provided a means for us to get the most out of Scripture, "God's love letters to us."
Lectio Divina (Lectio, Meditatio, Oratio, and Contemplatio) are covered, as well as a brief lesson in Salvation History and typology.
Join us, you won't regret it!
