In this talk, Dr. Lawrence Feingold will discuss how, in addition to the work of evangelization of the Spanish missionaries from the south, the North America received the Catholic faith from the north through the French missionaries in New France. Of special importance were the Jesuit missionaries, who first arrived in 1625. Their mysticism and spirituality was that of the Cross, which they were c...

In this talk, Dr. Robert Fastiggi will discuss how many people in the USA have the mistaken impression that Christianity was first brought to the American shores by the Pilgrims at Plymouth Rock in 1620. The truth, however, is that Spanish and French Catholic missionaries brought the Gospel to what is today the USA prior to the arrival of the English Protestant Christians. For more information abo...

In this talk, Dr. Lawrence Feingold will discuss the primary factor in the evangelization of Mexico was the extraordinary intervention of Mary who appeared to Juan Diego.

In this talk, Dr. Lawrence Feingold will discuss how one of the tragic stains in the history of the Church has been anti-Semitic deeds on the part of members of the Church.

In this talk, Dr. Lawrence Feingold will discuss anti-Catholicism throughout history. We know the four marks of the Church: one, holy, Catholic, and apostolic.

In this talk, Dr. Lawrence Feingold will discuss the perennial opposition between the Church and the World. The three evangelical counsels are the most perfect ways of opposing the spirit of the world (for those to whom Christ calls to this state of life).

In this talk, Dr. Lawrence Feingold will discuss the mystery that the “kingdom of God” is built on the foundation of sometimes very imperfect human beings: the Apostles and their successors.

In this talk, Dr. Lawrence Feingold will discuss the ultimate reason for the oneness of the Church, which comes from its end or purpose. God entered into human history in order to bring men into union with Him, and then into union with one another in a supernatural society which is to culminate in the heavenly communion of saints: the Church triumphant.    For more information about Miles Christi...

In this talk, Dr. Lawrence Feingold will discuss how the Church Is Universal or “Catholic." The Church must embrace all peoples and be truly catholic, from the Greek word καθολικός, which means “universal.” St. Paul speaks of the universality of the Church as a “mystery hidden for ages in God” (Eph 3:9). In Eph 3:4-6, he speaks of his “insight into the mystery of Christ, which was not made known t...
