• Sr. Orianne: Meet One of the Readers for Hallow’s Pray40 Challenge

  We are halfway through Lent, and for many of us, that means we are midway through Hallow’s Pray40 Challenge. Today, Ben Eriksen joins Sr. Orianne Pietra René, who reads the passages for “A Song for Nagasaki” in the French version of Hallow’s Pray40 Challenge. Sr. Orianne not only gives us a behind-the-scenes look at recording for Hallow, but she also provides insights into the life of Takashi Nagai and his wife, Midori. Because Takashi’s story is told elsewhere, Sr. Orianne and Ben reflect on the impact that this story has had on their personal lives, and how Takashi is a model for Catholics struggling with the problem of evil and suffering. Both marvel at how relevant Takashi and Midori are for us today. For those who love Hallow’s Pray40 challenge or are interested in the life of Takashi and Midori, this episode is for you!   Get Your Copy of A Song for Nagasaki: https://ignatius.com/a-song-for-nagasaki-snhep/   SUBSCRIBE to our channel and never miss an episode of the Ignatius Press Podcast.

• Fr. Kapaun: American Medal of Honor Winner AND a Future Saint?!

  Pope Francis has just named Fr. Kapaun a venerable making this American hero and medal of honor winner one step closer to sainthood. Today we celebrate this great occasion by sitting down with Roy Wenzl, author of “The Miracle of Father Kapaun.” Roy has done extensive research on Father Kapaun and interviewed many of the POWs that Father served with both in the war and in the prison camp. Father’s riveting story will surely inspire you as we continue to pray that one day Father Kapaun will be recognized as a saint of the Catholic Church.      Get your copy of The Miracle of Fr.

• Dr. Peter Kreeft: What Would Socrates Say?

  Philosophy has a way of intimidating or putting off people for being too ethereal, abstract, or impractical. But today, Dr. Peter Kreeft joins Ben Eriksen to challenge these judgments by discussing his new book “What Would Socrates Say? An Introduction to Philosophy by the Socratic Method.” This work is unlike every other introduction to philosophy; it is not only written in dialogue, but also teaches the reader how to think, not what to think. In this episode, Dr. Kreeft and Ben discuss the Socratic method, the importance of searching for the truth rather than winning arguments, skepticism, artificial intelligence, and so much more. This engaging conversation demonstrates the importance of philosophy in our everyday lives.   Get your copies of “What Would Socrates Say?”: https://ignatius.com/what-would-socrates-say-wwssh/   SUBSCRIBE to our channel and never miss an episode of the Ignatius Press Podcast.

• Fr. Donald Haggerty: Are Dark Days Ahead for the Church?

  Join us as Fr. Donald Haggerty sits down with Andrew Petiprin to discuss the dark forces that seek to undermine and destroy the Church. In Fr. Haggerty’s new book, The Hour of Testing, he not only locates our era in its historical context, but he also discusses how we should spiritually live in our own time. His relevant insights and depth of thought are manifest in the concentrated reflections offered both in this book and in his podcast. In this episode, Fr. Haggerty and Andrew discuss the rise of doctrinal ambiguity, the cultural indifference to God, and the Second Coming. As we approach a new era in the Church, Fr. Haggerty’s practical reflections will help any Catholic navigate the coming years in the Church’s history.
