Watch the video to see how to crack the code: https://youtu.be/kIbatXw31pM British artist Kit Williams published Masquerade, a children's book which combined fantasy storytelling with a real-world treasure hunt. The 1979 book tells a whimsical story about the moon sending a golden hare sculpture as a gift to the sun, with a rabbit named Jack Hare acting as the messenger. However, Jack loses the gi...

I've been under the weather recently and tonight I just started felling better, so I thought I'd tell you about a listener submitted story which I haven't been able to get out of my head. It's taken from a book called "The Finest Legends of the Rhine" by Wilhelm Ruland. I don't want to spoil the tale by needless explanation so I'll just jump right in to it.

I had no idea that there were so many incredible stories and miracles attributed to this Saint. There are also many episodes that show why he is known as “The Hammer of Heretics” as we will learn in this video. St. Anthony is the patron saint of the poor, protector and finder of lost things and his intercession is also sought for a good marriage. Watch the video: https://youtu.be/fYbUNMt33OQ Check...

Watch the video: https://youtu.be/UnuxGI9lwYA  Venerable József Cardinal Mindszenty resisted communism in Hungary after World War II and was persecuted, tortured and imprisoned for his brave stand. He penned one of the most beautiful reflections on motherhood I’ve ever heard. Since it’s Mother’s Day, let me recite it for you before we get to the main story for today: how the great St. Padre Pio ap...

The year is 1467. Imagine you’re looking out at the stormy waters of the Adriatic Sea from an Italian coastal town and to your astonishment, you see two men walking on water, following an image of the Blessed Virgin Mary and her Son, Jesus. That image is now known as Our Lady of Good Counsel of Genazzano and can be seen to this day suspended in mid-air without any supports. I want to relate the hi...

See pictures of Doug Dickey by watching the video: https://youtu.be/Qia6M8uZiZA  During World War II, Venerable Fulton Sheen compiled a prayer book for soldiers titled “The Armor of God.” In it he wrote that the vocation of a soldier is next in dignity to the priesthood, not only because it commissioned him to defend justice on the field of battle and order on the field of peace, but also because...

This episode will cover St. Patrick's incredible prophecies about the Emerald Isle and the five mysterious favors that he obtained from God during his forty days of fasting in the mountains. In his time of solitude, he fought off devils seeking to tempt him in such a brilliant way that they fled in terror, which definitely reminded me of St. Michael.  Watch the video for this episode: https://yout...

I was bored of driving, so I made up this silly poem today. I'm not sure if I really like all these things... it just fit the poem. https://youtube.com/shorts/7j4JRBFFV3o  Thankful!  If it's a terrible day, remember That you should never lose your temper. If you are muddled in toils and strife, Perhaps you should think of the finer things in life.  The swish-pop of a well-earned beer. Aiming an ar...

Portuguese Count Nuno Alvares Pereira had a brilliant military career and became the Constable of Portugal. Later, out of gratitude for a miraculous victory he won over the Spaniards, Saint Nuno built the Gothic church of Our Lady of the Scapular of Mount Carmel on a hill outside of Lisbon. He gave the church to the Carmelite order, and then joined them as a simple lay brother. Saint Nuno’s combat...

An episode that is basically just an excuse to talk about this really incredible observation from the author, Jules Verne, about the Catholic work method of the medieval man. They were the original Catholic influencers and they were the most effective, because we’re still talking about their creations to this day.  Watch the video: https://youtu.be/9R32ReDFOoA Check out the YouTube channel, if you...

When a Cursed Car Killed a Devilish Movie Star.  There are some movies that seem pretty tame today, but had an electrifying demonic charge at the time of its release. I think that one of those movies was "Rebel Without a Cause" in 1955, starring James Dean. I found a book called, "Cabinet of Curiosities" by Aaron Mahnke which talks about one aspect of his cursed legacy that involves a demonic car....

“Never will anyone who says his rosary every day be led astray. This is a statement that I would gladly sign with my blood.”  — Saint Louis-Marie Grignion de Montfort (1673-1716)  This is a literature podcast channel and one of the main books after the Bible that I would recommend a Catholic to read is St. Louis de Montfort’s “True Devotion to Mary.” But you shouldn't start the book without knowin...

The Peshtigo Fire happened on October 8—the same day as the Great Chicago Fire that’s so well known in American history. Though overshadowed by the Chicago Fire, the Peshtigo blaze killed more people (around 2,500) and destroyed more property—over 1.2 million acres. Gathered in a wooden church dedicated to Our Lady of Good Help, a small group of Catholics begged God to intervene. What followed bec...

It describes how we can maintain confidence in God amidst trials and sufferings: through the darkest nights of the soul. It's a text that I found greatly consoling. So if you're going through a tough time spiritually,...
