This is a talk that I made during Holy Week, 2024, and am only now putting it on the website for you. I hope you will listen to the talks which share our beautiful Catholic teaching about the power of suffering in our lives. Part Two of this topic completes the thoughts begun in part […]
This is a talk about Pope Leo XIII’s document on Human Liberty. It is a very important lesson since on the way we use our liberty great good or great evil can occur. Let us learn to use our liberty well so that we will use this precious gift as God intends. (Sorry I was […]
I recorded this “Life is Worth Pondering” episode on the Sunday before Lent began. Although at that time I didn’t know God would be sending the ‘Coronavirus Crisis’ to lead us all to deeper holiness, He did and so He had me give the message that this Crisis is truly all about. Even many who did remember […]
This week’s Life is Worth Pondering Episode, was recorded in May, 2017, in honor of the 100th anniversary of the apparitions of Our Lady of Fatima. I thought today, which is the anniversary of the famous ‘Miracle of the Sun’ would be a good day on which to put the story of Fatima on my website and make it […]

I made an episode of Life Is Worth Pondering for today, but it is too strong to put online. Two-thirds of the episode share with you a talk by Fulton Sheen which was the first in a series of talks called ‘Light Your Lamps’. In this episode I also share some things I’ve learned from […]
In this week’s Gospel Jesus teaches us to build not bigger barns when you have a big harvest. What should you do instead? Well, you’ll have to listen to Servant Maria’s talk this week as she invites St. Francis of Assisi, Father Joseph Rickaby, S.J., Msgr Fulton J. Sheen and Pope Pius XI to share […]
In today’s shortened episode of Life is Worth Pondering, Servant Maria applies the story of Abraham, God and Sodom and Gomorrah to our own lives and our responsibility in praying for our country and the world in addition to our own selves and our family. Just as ‘just a few’ could have saved the cities […]
