Apr 2023 Suffering: What Every Catholic Should Know

Suffering: What Every Catholic Should Know

This is the April CD of the Month. The mp3 is available now, and the CD will be available on May 1, 2023.
Suffering is a mystery: an unavoidable reality of human life on earth, which disorients us and tests our souls. It leads us to ask questions about God and his goodness. Though we seek pain relief and comfort, suffering cannot be solved by human effort. Instead, Jesus invites us, "If anyone would come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross daily and follow me" (Luke 9:23). As we accept his call to self-denial, suffering can become redemptive, conforming us to Christ in his salvific suffering. This talk will explain Catholic teaching on the redemptive value of suffering and show how it can go from feeling useless to transforming us to be like God.

Hope After Suicide

Death by suicide is sadly at pandemic proportions, killing more people every year than war and homicide combined.

Chris Alar, MIC shares in this insightful talk (based upon his book, After Suicide, given an imprimatur), while suicide remains grave and tragic, we must never despair of God's mercy, and we must know that our prayers can powerfully help those who have taken their own lives, and those who have been left behind.

Feb 2020 How to Love Yourself

How to Love Yourself

The words that we speak to ourselves shape our self-perception; how we see ourselves, and how we act. Despite being told perhaps more than any other generation to love and believe in themselves, this generation struggles more than any other with anxiety, self-loathing, and low self-esteem. In this talk, speaker and author Chris Stefanick tackles the lies which hold us captive to these struggles, and boldly shares the Good News of Jesus Christ—that Love Himself has come to redeem us, and destined us for eternal glory.

Jan 2020 The Spirituality of Marriage

The Spirituality of Marriage

Throughout the Church's history there has been crisis and confusion over Church teaching. Today, there is crisis and confusion surrounding the Sacrament of Marriage. As Augustine Institute President and Professor Dr. Tim Gray explains, this crisis presents an immense opportunity, as it encourages us to explore and discover the depth of this mystery, described by Pope Benedict XVI as "a Gospel in itself". When lived faithfully and well, marriage serves as a bold witness to the love and saving power of God.

Why Almsgiving?

Pope John Paul II's papacy is marked by the ways he engaged with and was loved by the youth. Scores of young people were drawn to him from around the world by a magnetism that continues even today, in his sainthood. In his letter to the youth of the world, John Paul offers young people his encouragement to respond to Jesus' call to follow Him during this unique and critically important time of life. To them he writes: “In you there is hope, for you belong to the future, just as the future belongs to you.”

 

“As a young adult, it is beautiful to hear St. John Paul II's thoughts and words to young people in this same stage of life. His wisdom and inspiration to the youth continue in this letter, and in his intercession.”

A Catholic Millennial's Guide to Adulting

The Millennial Generation has grown to adulthood. Having experienced many of the conveniences and pitfalls of new technologies, social media, student loan debt, and adult life, millennials have also developed a genuine desire to do something great with their lives, but often don't know how to get there. As fellow millennial Paul J.

The Virtue of Masculinity

Masculinity. In recent years, the use of this word has become controversial, and discussion about it unwelcome or silenced. Is all masculinity “toxic”? Dr. Tim Gray strongly asserts that while fallen masculinity does exist, authentic, God-given masculinity is a great virtue that is desperately needed in our world. Drawing on personal and cultural examples, Tim challenges men to face their fears about failing or "striking out," and encourages them to become the men they desire to be—loyal, dependable, and beloved friends, spouses, and fathers—in the image of Jesus Christ, the Perfect Man.

Suffering & The Love of God

Why would an all-powerful, all-loving God allow suffering and evil in the world? As Fr. Robert Spitzer, S.J., Ph.D. explains, unsatisfying answers to this important question are the #1 reason for atheism today. But by answering this question with logic and love (as well as with scientific, peer-reviewed evidence for the existence of life after death), we can not only answer this question truthfully and satisfactorily, but also teach our fellow Christians how to suffer well, in preparation for the limitless love of God that awaits us in eternity.

Letter to the Elderly

Narrated by Christopher O. Blum

In 1978, Pope John Paul II became one of the youngest popes ever elected. At the time of his death in 2005, he was also one of the longest serving popes, having lived into his early 80s. From his own experience of growing old, and only five and a half years before his death, John Paul wrote and shared this moving letter, addressed “To my elderly brothers and sisters.” His letter shares and cherishes the experiences, beauty, agony, and dignity of growing old and drawing closer to God. “The years pass quickly,” he writes, “and the gift of life, for all the effort and pain it involves, is too beautiful and precious for us to ever grow tired of it.”

From White Supremacist to Catholic Writer

Joseph Pearce, an accomplished writer best known for his literary biographies, tells of his own conversion from disillusioned, hate-filled young man to committed follower of Christ. Here he presents his early life, which included a stint in a skinhead band, white supremacist activity, violent demonstrations, and time spent in prison, and how he eventually embraced God’s grace and mercy. Joseph is one of the most prolific Catholic authors of our time and now serves as senior editor for the Augustine Institute.

 

I grew up with a brother and friends who listened to the punk band that Joseph Pearce sang in. I witnessed and was also pulled in by dark forces in my adolescence as a result of family and cultural dysfunction. As a young adult I danced back and forth with the Catholic faith of my childhood until my own life traumas and hurts finally brought me to my knees, and ultimately back to the pew. Joseph's CD shows us not only the power of our faith (and our faith COMMUNITY - our Catholic FAMILY) but allows us to understand how the forces of darkness work on the most vulnerable and how God's grace works to save us, sometimes through miraculous signs. I am buying this cd for some of the young men in my life/family who are desperately seeking intiation and a sense of belonging, and finding only shallow or unhealthy responses to this quest via the culture. The spiritual quest is the ultimate! And our Catholic faith is the richest tradtion to support our journey. Thank you Joseph Pearce for sharing your story! Alison - Bend, OR

May 2013 Walk the Walk: Following Christ as His Disciple

Walk the Walk: Following Christ as His Disciple

Being a disciple of Jesus has always been synonymous with being a Christian. From the Scriptures and from his own experience, biblical scholar Dr. Timothy Gray explains how Christian discipleship calls us to follow in the footsteps of Christ as engaged participants in God's plan, ordering our lives to bear witness to the Lord in our families, workplaces, communities, and to the world.

 

Yes, I thought it was excellent and passed it on to other Christian friends to consider using this in a Bible Study this fall. So many of us call ourselves "Christian" maybe because they were Baptized and they may not even go to church and others go to church once in awhile when it is convenient for them or useful to them for Christmas to get that "Christmas Spirit" and I was one of them in my 20's and early 30's. Once I received Jesus into my heart and became a born again Christian is when I finally searched for the Truth which is in the Word that was made incarnate for our salvation. So many are walking about thinking they are saved but have not turned their life over to Jesus and Mary and want to give God permission to do as only He wants for our lives. Peace and Joy only comes when you give your life to Jesus. I learned so much about the "name of Jesus" meaning. Thank you. We never stop learning. Janet - Halifax, NS

In God We Trust: Religious Liberty - Your First Amendment Right

During these challenging times there is a critical need to focus on defending our religious liberty as stated in the First Amendment of the United States Constitution. In these highly informative presentations, Bishop David Malloy and Monsignor Eric Barr show us that protection of religious freedom is fundamental for Catholics, as well as for people of all faiths.

 

Yes! There is a great difference between freedom of expression and freedom to worship. Thank you for finding talks that speak plainly to this fact. This is a MUST LISTEN for every person of faith, especially Christians and most especially Catholics. We have to keep fighting. Kim - AE

Trust in the Lord

This talk is practical. It is for everyone-beginners and masters in the spiritual life. We all know that growth in holiness is largely about growing in trust in our Lord Jesus Christ. But how does one do that realistically? 

In this talk, Bismarck Diocese Vocations Director Fr. Tom Richter will describe in concrete terms what the interior act of trust looks like, and what we must choose in order to grow in trust.

 

I have listened to as many as four dozen CLM CDs, and have found them all very helpful. But of all of those I have heard, I keep coming back to this one. Last night, on a drive back from Steubenville with our prospective-student daughters, I played it for my sister, telling her it was probably my very favorite, and when Father Tom's (Richter) talk was done she responded in such a way as to express agreement. She too, is a serial listener to your CDs. Thank you for your ministry. As a former theology major essentially educated out of the faith for years by a catholic-in-name College, I now thank God for your trusted, faithful presentations. Tony - Youngsville, PA

Abba or Allah

In this informative talk, Dr. Scott Hahn explores some of the most important beliefs that distinguish Christianity from Islam. He explains that while both religions trace themselves back to Abraham, the differences, including our understanding of God as Father, are not insignificant. With charity, balance, and candor, Dr. Hahn shows us how Islam presents the most formidable challenge to Christianity in the Third millennium.

 

Dr. Scott Hahn delivers an incisive, insightful, and very strong argument about one of the key distinctions between Islamic and Catholic Christian Theology. With Dr. Hahn's usual wit and style he takes a scholarly stroll through scripture to build his argument. Charles - New Cumberland, PA

With compassion, clarity, and humor, he shows that the Church's teachings on contraception and same-sex attraction are rooted in the yearnings for authentic love that is shared by all, who are made in the image and likeness of God.

Walking Through the Valley of the Shadow of Death

Admiral Jeremiah Denton spent over seven years as a prisoner of war in Vietnam. In this moving presentation, he recalls how, through the power of prayer, he withstood extreme torture rather than betray God or his country. For his valor, he was awarded the Purple Heart, the Distinguished Flying Cross, the Air Medal, the Navy Cross, and the POW Medal. He is now a champion of various humanitarian causes.

 

I was so moved by Admiral Denton's witness to the power of prayer and the graces he received--and his humility. His love for God came through every word. The second speaker (Tim Staples) was so good, that I am humbled by my own inability to defend the faith. He was inspiring in a different, but complimentary way. Becky - Jackson, WY

I also was inspired by the tenacity with which he pursued his vocation and clung to his faith and morals in an impossible situation.

Commonly referred to as a "wonder worker", she has the distinction of being the only saint canonized solely on the basis of the profound miracles attributed to her intercession.

God's Family and Ours: The Church and the Trinity

Dr. Scott Hahn uses familiarity with family life to bring us to a deeper understanding of the Holy Trinity, and thereby a better understanding of ourselves and the Church. This presentation effectively illustrates how the "Good News" of salvation is not only being saved from our sins through the Cross of Christ, but an invitation to become and live as adopted sons and daughters of the Triune God.

 

One day I found myself wondering how to learn more about the Holy Spirit. The third mysterious piece of the holy trinity. After all, we learn so much about God the Father and Jesus Christ, the son. But in every day life we don't learn a whole lot about the Holy Spirit. When I browsed through the titles on the Lighthouse Catholic Media website, I came across this title was very hopeful. Well, this CD satisfied my curiosity and more. I thoroughly enjoyed the philosophical journey I encountered while listening. It really made me reflect, make connections and continue to ask questions and yearn for more. Some of the topics that particularly spoke to me include (1) the discussion about wanting to learn more about God is the highest form of praise, (2) the discussion about sex being sacred and when we treat it as only good we desecrate a holy and sacred thing, (3) the discussion of the marital covenant which draws parallels between the human family and the holy trinity and (4) the discussion about God not being a solitude but a family with the fundamental features in their perfect -- fathership, sonship and the essence of family: love.

All his stories were wonderful, insightful and brought home the point of dying to self in order to become more like Christ Jesus. I especially loved his prayer surrendering to Jesus which I wrote down. I plan to recite and ultimately memorize as part of my daily prayers to the Lord. Salvatore - Silver Spring, MD

Sep 2007 There is Life in the Womb

There is Life in the Womb

Archbishop Fulton J. Sheen was one of the best-loved and most influential preachers of the 20th century and author of over 90 books. He reached nearly 30 million people through his weekly program, Life is Worth Living, and his Cause for Canonization was officially opened in 2002. He explains the Church's teaching on life from a philosophical and historical perspective.

 

I used to believe that abortion should be a choice for a woman if she can not or does not want to raise her child. After listening to the CD, I have realized that I was very selfish person. I believe that young women do not understand that it is not about them only but there is a new person inside the womb who has a right to live, dream, have friends, go to school and grow up. We are truly very selfish nation where having sex before getting married is a social norm especially in high school. Ellie - Mount Juliet, TN

Apr 2007 Finding the Fullness of Faith

Finding the Fullness of Faith

Stephen Ray was raised in a devout, loving, Baptist family. In this presentation, he shares his amazing conversion to Catholicism and explains why he is convinced it is the Church founded by Christ over 2000 years ago.

 

This talk by Stephen Ray in absolutely fantastic. I must have listened to it over a dozen times. It was an eye opener (or ear opener!) to hear how other Christian denominations wrongly view our precious Catholic faith. As a person who defends the Catholic faith- this talk is like a much needed weapon of defense. Stephen Ray brings up many issues that we hear over and over again by those who have no idea what being a Catholic is all about! I highly recommend this CD to all Catholics and non-Catholics alike as a very valuable insight as to what our Church is REALLY about. Natalie - 18447, PA
