Welcome to the final episode of 2024! As we wrap up the year, Victor and I reflect on what it means to desire change and align those desires with God’s will. In this episode, we dive deep into the importance of not just having holy desires but taking actionable steps to fulfill them.

From personal growth goals to the incredible opportunities God gave us this year through our ministry, we discuss victories, challenges, and the practical ways we can all begin 2025 with purpose and clarity.

Let’s make this new year different—not by setting fleeting resolutions, but by recognizing the desires God places in our hearts and working intentionally to live them out. Ready to go all in with us? Let’s take that first step together.

Merry Christmas! In today's episode, Bishop Barron walks us through the second chapter of Luke's Gospel, which recounts the birth of Jesus. As we see, this story is far from a safe, charming fairy tale. It tells the story of a new king, one who rivals the kingship of Caesar Augustus at every turn. A listener asks what St. John of the Cross meant by "the divine sweetness." Topics Discussed <ul> <li>0:04 - Introduction: The fires of Southern California</li> <li>2:40 - Why is "subversive" a good word for the Nativity narrative?</li> <li>4:40 - What is the importance of the census in the Christmas story?</li> <li>6:40 - Why does Luke begin the story by mentioning the great figures of the time?</li> <li>8:00 - What is the significance of the "line of David"?</li> <li>9:55 - What is the symbolic nature of there being no room at the inn, Jesus being wrapped in swaddling clothes, and Jesus being placed in a manger?</li> <li>18:08 - What's the significance of the angels and shepherds?</li> <li>25:50 - How were the Gospel writers spiritual and literary masters?</li> <li>27:35 - Listener question: How do we dialogue with someone who creates their own personal religion?</li> </ul>

The Power of Praying the Rosary Daily (w/ Fr. Gregory Pine)

Without a doubt something that all leaders have in common is that we are men and women of action.  Practically oriented, skilled in social settings, leaders tend to rise to the top because they engage their talents in their situations to make a difference.  They are men and women of action.  Does the Christian faith have room for them and do they have room in their hearts for Christianity?  What about contemplation, receptivity, submission to God?  In this second part of our series on applying the gospel we explore these actions and more.

Hey! Today I chat with Emily Sullivan about the marital debt! And no, we're not talking about money. ... Do not listen if you have kids around. Here's a little of what Aquinas had to say about the marital debt. Click the link below to get the full context: On the contrary, As the slave is in the power of his master, so is one spouse in the power of the other (1 Corinthians 7:4). But a slave is bound by an obligation of precept to pay his master the debt of his service according to Romans 13:7, "Render . . . to all men their dues, tribute to whom tribute is due," etc. Therefore husband and wife are mutually bound to the payment of the marriage debt. Further, marriage is directed to the avoiding of fornication (1 Corinthians 7:2). But this could not be the effect of marriage, if the one were not bound to pay the debt to the other when the latter is troubled with concupiscence. Therefore the payment of the debt is an obligation of precept. I answer that, Marriage was instituted especially as fulfilling an office of nature. Wherefore in its act the movement of nature must be observed according to which the nutritive power administers to the generative power that alone which is in excess of what is required for the preservation of the individual: for the natural order requires that a thing should be first perfected in itself, and that afterwards it should communicate of its perfection to others: and this is also the order of charity which perfects nature. And therefore, since the wife has power over her husband only in relation to the generative power and not in relation to things directed to the preservation of the individual, the husband is bound to pay the debt to his wife, in matters pertaining to the begetting of children, with due regard however to his own welfare.

Chastity in Today’s Culture w/ Jason Evert

Anand Bheemarasetti is a modern missionary, business entrepreneur, media specialist, and community organizer who has dedicated himself to a life of service by following the inspiration of St. Mother Theresa of Calcutta. Anand shares the incredible tale of his journey to America and the little things he had to learn that we often take for granted, starting with his fascination for water fountains at the airport. He goes on to share his struggles at his first hotel, again attempting to find drinking water. Likewise, when Anand takes Americans to India, he enjoys watching the cultural transition in reverse. He shares that smiling at a stranger is a very American thing to do, and when that happens in India, it leads to a swarm of interest from the locals.

WOF 121: The Impossibly Good News of Easter

Pints With Aquinas is fully fan funded. If you'd like to support PWA, click <a href= "https://www.patreon.com/pwa">here</a> now. Thank you for your support. Here's the text from today's meditation: That Christ should die was expedient. 1. To make our redemption complete. For, although any suffering of Christ had an infinite value, because of its union with His divinity, it was not by no matter which of His sufferings that the redemption of mankind was made complete, but only by His death. So the Holy Spirit declared speaking through the mouth of Caiaphas, It is expedient for you that one man shall die for the people (John xi. 50). Whence St. Augustine says, "Let us stand in wonder, rejoice, be glad, love, praise, and adore since it is by the death of our Redeemer, that we have been called from death to life, from exile to our own land, from mourning to joy." 2. To increase our faith, our hope and our charity. With regard to faith the Psalm says (Ps. cxl. 10), I am alone until I pass from this world, that is, to the Father. When I shall have passed to the Father, then shall I be multiplied. Unless the grain of wheat falling into the ground die itself remaineth alone (John xii. 24). As to the increase of hope St, Paul writes, He that spared not even his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how hath he not also, with him, given us all things? (Rom. viii. 32). God cannot deny us this, for to give us all things is less than to give His own Son to death for us. St. Bernard says, "Who is not carried away to hope and confidence in prayer, when he looks on the crucifix and sees how Our Lord hangs there, the head bent as though to kiss, the arms outstretched in an embrace, the hands pierced to give, the side opened to love, the feet nailed to remain with us." Come, my dove, in the clefts of the rock (Cant. ii. 14). It is in the wounds of Christ the Church builds its nest and waits, for it is in the Passion of Our Lord that she places her hope of salvation, and thereby trusts to be protected from the craft of the falcon, that is, of the devil. With regard to the increase of charity, Holy Scripture says, At noon he burneth the earth (Ecclus. xliii. 3), that is to say, in the fervour of His Passion He burns up all mankind with His love. So St. Bernard says, "The chalice thou didst drink, O good Jesus, maketh thee lovable above all things." The work of our redemption easily, brushing aside all hindrances, calls out in return the whole of our love. This it is which more gently draws out our devotion, builds it up more straightly, guards it more closely, and fires it with greater ardour.

A Good Friday meditation by Thomas Aquinas

Staying rooted in the Truth and sharing it with grace.

Truth and Grace

No Vacation From God
Father Mariusz Sztuk, another of the original members of the Riders, shares his impressions about how, when on a vacation our faith can be manifest in ways that may be outside of our normal. The riders have always been grateful to have a priest with them on their trips to be able to offer the sacraments to them. While traveling, besides their daily Mass, the men try to demonstrate their faith in public to others around them to hopefully engage with them. Father talks about how even just making the sign of the cross and praying grace at meal times in restaurants can be a witness to faith and may open doors for others who are searching.

Wisdom from the Road with Fr Mariusz

Everyone who strives to do something great will encounter difficulty.  The question is, "What will we do when we are encountered with a difficulty?"  For many, they respond by anger, an outward anger that can sometimes even be violent.  True greatness, however, is to be able to channel that anger, like St. Joseph, into effective results.

 	<li>Closely scrutinize every mental image or provocation.</li>
 	<li>Free the heart from all thoughts, keeping it profoundly silent and still in prayer.</li>
 	<li>Continually and humbly call upon the Lord Jesus Christ for help.</li>
