The Cordial Catholic - 009: How the Saints Can Help Us Be Holy (w/ JonMarc Grodi)
play

05/29/19 • 65 min

In this episode of The Cordial Catholic Podcast, I speak talk to JonMarc Grodi from the Coming Home Network International about the role that saints can play in the life of a Christian.
JonMarc unpacks the role of saints as examples of God's grace and holiness, how we can have real relationships with saints, and gives an incredible analogy of what worship is not. We tackle some common Protestant objections to saints to help explain the importance of their role in the Catholic faith. You don't want to skip this episode – it's fantastic!

In this episode of The Cordial Catholic, I'm joined by speaker, author, and accomplished Catholic Answers apologist Karlo Broussard to talk about anticipating and responding to Protestant objections to Catholic ideas. It's all about knowing the Catholic faith and how to respond under pressure – and it's a great conversation.
Karlo is a great guy and a perfect fit for the goal of this show which is to cordially explain the Catholic faith. Karlo has made a career out of building up the best arguments against the Catholic faith and, in charity, showing why they're completely wrong!
For more from Karlo check out Catholic Answers and his website. His book, Meeting the Protestant Response is available everywhere.

In this episode of The Cordial Catholic, I'm joined by Shannon Wimp Schmidt, Parish Vitality Coordinator for the Archdiocese of Chicago, to talk about the Catholic parish. What exactly should we expect from a Catholic parish? How does it compare to an Evangelical church? How can we get more involved? What if nothing is happening in our parish – is it OK to go somewhere else?
These questions, and many more, are answered this week as Shannon joins me for an honest, sometimes spicy, chat about what's going on at the grassroots level in the Catholic Church.
You don't want to miss this!

In this episode of The Cordial Catholic Podcast, I'm joined by former Episcopal priest Andrew Petiprin to discuss his journey into full communion with the Catholic Church.
We discuss issues of Anglo-Catholicism, authority, biblical interpretation, the value that non-Catholic Christians bring into the Catholic Church, and how the Catechism of the Catholic Church can be a powerful tool in helping non-Catholics understand the Church and its teachings.
Andrew is gracious, clear, and thoughtful as he articulates what drew him, and his family, into the Catholic faith.
For more from Andrew visit his website and check him out at the Word on Fire Institute where he is a Fellow of Pop Culture.

In this episode of The Cordial Catholic Podcast, I'm joined by Dr. Holly Ordway to talk about imagination, evangelization, and her journey into the Catholic Church as an atheist academic.
It's a fantastic interview which touches on her conversion story, the use of imagination in apologetics, important points to consider while speaking about Christianity, and the why Dr. Ordway wasn't satisfied by becoming an Protestant Christian and found herself, to her surprise, going all the way to Rome.
For more from Dr. Holly Ordway visit her website and be sure to check out her books which are favourites of mine, Not God's Type: An Atheist Academic Lays Down Her Arms and Apologetics and the Christian Imagination.

In this episode of The Cordial Catholic, I'm joined by author, and professor of Catholic history, and popular guest on this program Steve Weidenkopf. We talk about Steve's latest book Light from Darkness and discuss times when the Catholic Church was in complete turmoil, morally bankrupt, failing, and near collapse – and how each and every time it came back from the brink, stronger than before!
We talk about this and what lessons we, Catholics living today, can take from the pages of history to carry out reform, renewal, and spur a move towards holiness in our own lives and communities.
It's a great discussion; Steve is a wonderful storyteller!
For more from Steve visit his website, and check out the Catholic Answers shop.
