We’re happy to welcome back Fr. Dominique Bourmaud, the Pastor of St. Vincent’s in Kansas City, and the author of One Hundred Years of Modernism, to discuss the New Theology that gripped the Church in the mid-1900’s. We’ll look at this theology’s champion, Henri De Lubac, and the outsized influence he played in moving the hierarchy to accept radical new teachings on the even of the Second Vatican...

Today we’re speaking with Fr. Dominique Bourmaud, the Pastor of St. Vincent's in Kansas City, and the author of "One Hundred Years of Modernism," on the topic of Existentialism. Father will explore how this philosophy came about as a result of Modernism, and then directly influenced the Neo-Modernists in the twentieth century who would be the ringleaders of the New Theology of the Catholic Church....

Today, we will look at Modernism through the lens of the recent encyclical by Pope Francis, Fratelli Tutti, and how this encyclical promotes the French revolutionary ideas of liberty, equality, and fraternity. We’ll see how these three ideas, though they sound very nice, are not based in Catholic doctrine, and in fact, were condemned by Pope St. Pius X just over 100 years ago, when French Catholic...

Today, we’ll compare side by side the viewpoints of the modern popes, and examine them in the light of Pope St. Pius X’s encyclical, Pascendi. Within the span of thirty minutes, we’ll see how the modern Church has perfectly followed the modernist playbook that Pope St. Pius X predicted just a hundred years before. Nearly every modern pronouncement from the Vatican has been perfectly predictable….

Last episode, Father gave us insight into modernist philosophies by looking at the encyclical Pascendi. Today, we’ll look at today’s Catholicism, which is completely immersed in Modernism. We’ll start by asking if modernist Catholics can even be considered Catholics. Then we’ll look at each of the major parts of our faith through the lens of Modernism, then through the lens of tradition and see ho...

This week on the Crisis in the Church series, we’re taking a break from our normal interviews for Christmas, but we wanted to do an episode recapping what we’ve talked about over the last three months. That way if you’ve missed an episode - or a few - you can get up to speed as we continue with our series next week. We’ve condensed the past 9 hours of episodes into about an hour, highlighting a fe...

On December 10, Fr. Trevor Burfitt, represented by Christopher Ferrara of the St. Thomas More Society, won a preliminary injunction prohibiting California Governor Newsom and others named in Father Trevor Burfitt's lawsuit from enforcing COVID-19 related restrictions against his chapels in Kern, San Bernardino, San Diego and Los Angeles counties.

Today we’re joined by Fr. Paul Robinson, the Prior of Saint Isidore’s in Denver, Colorado. Last episode, we learned from Fr. Franks about the background of Modernism, and today, in our explanation of modernist thought, we’ll see how this modernist ideology twists the very nature of religion. We’ll take a look back at more recent history, and see how the Pachamama and Assisi scandals have their roo...

First, we’ll see how it sprang up in Protestant theology, then, how Modernism tried to give an entirely new interpretation of scripture and the Divinity of Our Lord, and finally, how these errors spread into the minds of some Catholic theologians in the late nineteenth century.

We've finished our study of Liberalism - Before we start covering Modernism in detail, we wanted to take an episode to answer a listener's question about the Crisis in the Church: "What's wrong with the world? Is there a connection between the chaos in the post-Conciliar Church and the chaos that we are seeing in secular society?" We reached out to Fr. David Sherry, who is the District Superior of...

This week, we’ll discuss the rapid growth of Catholic schools, parishes, hospitals, and orphanages, and what that had to do with American Exceptionalism. We’ll also see how Pope Leo XIII both was in awe of the American Catholic Church, and gave some grave warnings.

We’re speaking with Fr. Jonathan Loop about Americanism, which is closely tied to our last set of episodes on Liberalism. We’ll start by looking at the history and challenges that faced the Catholic Church in the early years of our country. Also, we’ll ask why Americanism is actually an error, and whether or not an American can be both a patriot and a good Catholic.

Today we’re speaking with Mr. Mike Banschbach, who runs a prison ministry out of Midland, Texas. Mike’s work, and the efforts of Fr. Katzaroff, as well as the faithful at St. Michael the Archangel chapel have provided some really awe-inspiring stories, as you’ll hear in the next thirty minutes or so. And far from being forgotten, these inmates are receiving the Faith and the Sacraments, not to men...

We're speaking with Fr. Steven Reuter for the culmination on our study of Liberalism, by seeing how it's completely impossible for a Catholic to be a Liberal, and a Liberal to be a Catholic. Yes, there are "Liberal Catholics" but can they truly say they are Catholics, in the full sense of the word?

This week, we'll learn more about liberalism, through the eyes of one of the great pontiffs of the last two centuries, Pope Leo XIII, and his condemnation of Liberalism in his encyclical "Libertas".

For this bonus episode, we’re speaking with Mr. John Steele, who is the Program Director of KSMK-LP, 98.3 FM in Saint Marys, Kansas. Located on the St. Mary’s Academy campus, and registered to them, it broadcasts traditional Catholic programming 24/7, every day of the year.

This week, we’re welcoming Fr. Steven Reuter, who is the Prior of St. Dennis in Calgary. He’ll be our guide for the next few episodes as we dive into the errors of Liberalism, which is something that has infected everyone living today, and even those living in the early twentieth century, including Archbishop Lefebvre.

This week, we’ll continue with Father Alexander Wiseman, looking at the remote background of the Crisis in more detail, exploring the philosophies of Immanuel Kant, and René Descartes, as well as their errors. Father will discuss how these ideas from some centuries ago have not only influenced the church, but have laid the groundwork for nearly all of our thinking today.

We'll start in the 1300's with Nominalism, and then move on to the errors of Martin Luther, how those two topics are connected, and what the response of the Church was at that time.

In Episode 1, we'll look at specific ways, and distinct symptoms of this crisis that is the greatest challenge the Catholic Church has ever faced.

In this podcast episode, Fr. Patrick Rutledge, Prior of Assumption in St. Marys, Kansas addresses questions submitted by supporters of the Immaculata Church Project.

The SSPX Podcast is starting a new multi-part series on the Crisis in the Church, with 6 of our priests as guests.

In this episode, Father tackles several related questions regarding the recent events surrounding Covid-19.

In this interview, we speak with Fr. John McFarland, who is the Vocations Director for the US District of the Society of Saint Pius X. He discusses the types of vocations, who should think about entering the seminary, what kind of person it takes and much more! For more information, visit https://sspx.org or the Seminary...

In this episode, Father discusses the special duties and responsibilities of the SSPX Brothers. Next, he'll discuss the cautious nature the Catholic Church has towards the practice of Yoga, and why "just doing the exercises" doesn't really count. Finally, a questioner asked whether it's ok for a child to be baptized who is born to divorced & remarried parents - it's not the child's fault, is it?
