I have the privilege of speaking with Fr. Roger Landry, who embarked on an extraordinary 1,200-mile plus Eucharistic pilgrimage across the United States while carrying Christ. We explore the profound impact of bringing Jesus in the Eucharist to tens of thousands of people, where even the most indifferent hearts were moved. Fr. Landry shares stories of people stopping their cars, stepping onto the scalding asphalt to kneel in reverence, and experiencing conversions of heart amidst a world often filled with loneliness and apathy. He even had the opportunity to offer a procession in a prison yard, leading something that has likely never happened before in the United States of America. Despite facing some insults, the journey was marked by overwhelming love and transformation. Join us as we delve into these powerful moments of faith and devotion.

Today, we discuss an aspect of Catholicism that affects our ability to live out our calling in life, grow as a community, evangelize to others, and love as Christ requires.

Join us and learn how you can better experience this joy in your life and share it with others.

Today, John, Devin, and Sam are discussing something that—from our perspective—is quite possibly never proclaimed, discussed, or pondered by men in the Church today. Could this be the very reason why only 31% of Mass going Catholics believe Our Savior is present in the Eucharist? We want to be clear: today’s episode is not just another discussion about Christ’s real presence in the Eucharist, or a lamentation regarding the crisis of faith. Today we will be discussing something so serious, so powerful that it could be the most dangerous and important thing you will ever do.
