The Simple Truth

The Simple Truth

The Station of The Cross

The Simple Truth, hosted by Jim Havens, airs each weekday from 4-5PM(EST) on The Station of the Cross Media Network. The focus of the show is authentically receiving, living, and transmitting the simple Truth of Jesus and His Catholic Church. We’re in challenging times, but we are made to rise up and meet the challenges before us with Christ. We’ll be proclaiming all that is good, true, and beautiful, applying it to real life, and we won’t shy away from the difficult topics, especially lifting up the truth in those areas where it is most unpopular, and therefore most needed. As the Catechism of the Catholic Church states: “The disciple of Christ consents to ‘live in the truth,’ that is, in the simplicity of a life in conformity with the Lord's example, abiding in his truth. "If we say we have fellowship with him while we walk in darkness, we lie and do not live according to the truth." Join us live on the radio, on YouTube, Facebook, or listen to the podcast!

1/6/25 - As baptized Christians, we are called to spread the Good News of Jesus Christ. But that has become increasingly difficult in today's post-Christian culture, which has largely rejected God and Christian beliefs. This is the primary field where most of us are called to sow and harvest for the kingdom, and a culture antithetical to Christianity requires a different approach. Philosophy provides some common ground with the modern world as well as tools to think rationally about who we are and what we were made for.

Thinking Clearly is your introduction to philosophy in the Catholic tradition and a guide to having difficult conversations about faith, morality, the human person, and more, using natural human insights.

12/13/24 - What does it mean to call ourselves "conservative," and how has the definition evolved over time? The protection of human dignity has remained a core principle of American conservatism from the days of our founding fathers; the belief that all men are created in the image and likeness of God. Can a value such as this continue to stand the test of time, even as so many outside forces continue to pressure conservatives to soften their stance on abortion, contraception, and other similar issues? How can Catholics and Christians help to restore conservative values that have come to feel like nothing more than a thing of the past?

12/6/24 - As a Catholic, is there any room for compromise when it comes to abortion? We're taught from the beginning that murder is inherently evil, yet so many so-called Catholics and Christians miss the mark in this area. What does it mean to be an abolitionist? Why has it become a "hot take" to believe in the total outlawing of abortion in modern society?
