  • How the Holy Spirit Guides the Election of the Pope

    How the Holy Spirit Guides the Election of the Pope
    May 15 2025
    How does the Holy Spirit guide the Church when a new pope is chosen? Fr. Mike explains the unique relationship between divine guidance and human decision-making in the papal election. Though the process can be slow, complicated, and even filled with disagreement, the Holy Spirit is still powerfully at work—just as He is in our everyday lives.

  • How I Handle Haters

    How I Handle Haters
    May 8 2025
    Do you struggle to handle criticism well? Do you get defensive even when you know there’s room to grow? Fr. Mike Schmitz discusses how to handle criticism, exploring three primary approaches: denial, acceptance, and gratitude. He emphasizes the importance of discerning what part of the criticism is true, acknowledging those truths, and discarding the falsehoods to avoid unnecessary self-condemnation.

Are we excused from Mass if you have a chronic disease? I have many painful diseases. I was taught we are excused yet I feel so guilty. Your thoughts.?

I am finally reading through the whole bible! No starting and then stopping at Leviticus! I have always wanted and tried but I couldn't stay focused and follow/understand what was happening. This is the greatest podcast of all time! Father Mike you are incredible. Your breakdown and explanations at the end of each episode are literally teaching me God's word and what the bible is saying. I've always felt so inadequate and like such a Christian wanna-be I guess. I went to a private Chistian school K-8 and then a private catholic high school. I know many bible stories and lessons but I never truly knew or understood who was writing/saying these things, how they came to be part of the story or why. I have told so many people about this podcast. I am praying that one day in the "nearer" future my teenage sons will take my advice and also listen to this podcast. You don't have to be Catholic to listen to this podcast - I'm not. If you have ever wanted to just learn and try to UNDERSTAND what is being said then this is the best resource ever. I did not discover this podcast until about February, and then I wasn't listening every day, but that's ok - I was able to binge listen (which I loved!) and I am now all caught up and on the same page. I get giddy when it pops up on my phone that today's episode is up! I will be re-listening to this podcast for years. Thank you Fr. Mike for this incredible thing you are doing - things are shifiting, my eyes are opening, I am FINALLY learning and understanding. Thank you for praying for me, I AM praying for you.

Finally Doing It!!

Each one is one topic. Short and to the point. And Fr. Mike Schmitz does a great job at explaining the "why" it matters or "why" it makes sense or "why" it is important, etc. I am a struggling, new Catholic and these podcasts are helping greatly.

These podcasts are great - short but to the point
