Join me as I discuss two very important news items and give a commentary on them that will stretch your thinking and bring hope to a seemingly hopeless situation.

One of the most familiar passages in the gospel is Mary’s Song Of Praise to God. In this episode we will see this Magnificat come alive and learn how to truly see justice realized in our world.

What would you do in the face of extreme suffering and a seemingly insurmountable situation? Mary shows us how to stand strong in the face of oppression. In this episode we will also look at historical and recent examples of how to stand strong in the face of oppression.

Today we begin a discussion of how Our Blessed Mother is the perfect model for justice. We will be taking a look at her involvement at a wedding feast that her, Jesus and the disciples were invited to and how she stepped up and corrected a situation that would have lead to chaos. We will discover how we too can help correct the chaos we see in our own world.

Join us for our monthly perspective on the news.

In this final episode of the series Michael and guest David discuss ways you can both prevent violence and how to bring peace and unity in your neighborhood.

Michael is joined again by “David” in this continuing discussion on how people are persecuted for their faith. In this episode we go deeper into David’s story and what people face even now because of their faith.

Today, we continue a discussion of a topic we began a few weeks ago. How does the media contribute to injustice in the world and what can you do about it?

Can the language that you speak cause you to act unjustly toward others? In this unique episode we will look into the answer to this important but overlooked question.

You have heard the phrase, “the blind leading the blind”. In this episode we will look at YOU. Are you in need of healing yourself? We will look into the need for personal healing before we can heal society. We will also discover how to heal and how to maintain good internal health.

In this episode we will critique National, State and Local programs for poverty and injustice and discover why they will not and cannot work toward a positive end for those who are suffering. We will discuss alternative solutions to poverty and injustice. 

In this episode we discuss how to let go of the idea that we are the saviors to the oppressed and how to simply give them the tools to become free, then step out of the way and let them take the lead. We discuss how we can do this as an individual.

Today, we continue our discussion of equipping the oppressed to take the lead. In this episode we will discuss how to do this as a community where things can get complicated due to varying opinions and perspectives. 

Join us in this episode as we approach the subject of how to overcome racism. In this episode Michael presents fresh viewpoints that will give you a new perspective to racism. 

In today’s episode we will complete our discussion on common sense perspectives to racism.

In this episode we will build the foundation for our journey, that real justice happens at the neighborhood level. Find out why as you listen and join us in this journey of the neighborhood.

Discover in today’s episode why the neighborhood is the place to realize a just world. What do neighborhoods have that are so unique that can be used for good.
