Soldiers of the Immaculate

In this Lenten Mission sermon Father discusses the meaning of Holy Week through the lens of spiritual warfare, emphasizing the necessity of fidelity to Christ and His Church as the sole path to salvation. The Church is the Church Militant and Catholics need to actively engage in prayer, sacrifice, and defense of the Faith amid widespread apostasy and internal corruption. We need to persevere and maintain devotion to the sacraments and the Blessed Virgin, being ready to suffer as the Church endures her present and intensifying crisis.

Also, for those who have eyes to see they will see that the move toward Noahide Laws is continuing with Senators proclaiming it’s antisemitic to say that Christ is King and the SecDef’s pastor saying that Marian and Eucharistic devotions by Catholics is idolatry.

A fiery discussion of planned episcopal consecrations and why new bishops matter for sacramental provision. A look at reactions across the internet and historical precedents for decisive action. Practical talk on forming Catholic families: prayer routines, the Rosary, disciplining children, and discerning vocations. Calls for prayer and preparation for those involved in upcoming consecrations.

In this sermon Father discusses the Catholic doctrine that the Blessed Virgin Mary is rightly called Co-Redemptrix and Mediatrix of all Graces, that these titles belong to the deposit of faith and are consistently taught by Scripture, Tradition, the Fathers, Doctors, Saints, and Popes. Denying these Marian titles undermines authentic Christology, rejects the Church’s historical teaching authority, and results in doctrinal collapse masked by false ecumenism. We need unwavering devotion to Our Lady, especially in the present age of crisis, presenting her as God’s chosen instrument for the final victory over error and the salvation of souls. Key quotes from this sermon: St. Louis de Montfort: “God wishes to make Mary better known in the latter times.” St. Alphonse Liguori: “If you call on Our Lady promptly in temptation, it is an infallible sign that you will not fall.” St. Maximilian Kolbe: “Mary is Co-Redemptrix because she is the Immaculate Conception, uniquely united to the Holy Ghost.” St. Vincent of Lérins: “We must hold what has been believed everywhere, always, and by all.” St. Jerome: “The whole world groaned and was astonished to find itself Arian.” St. John Eudes: “All the Fathers of the Church clearly teach that Mary is Co-Redemptrix with Christ in the work of salvation.” Links, Reading Material, and Books: Mother of the Savior and Our Interior Life — Reginald Garrigou-Lagrange (Free on Internet Archive) True Devotion to Mary — St. Louis de Montfort The Priest’s Dignity and Obligations — St. John Eudes The Litany of Loreto "Video" versions of the podcasts are posted to Odysee, Rumble and sometimes on YouTube (The censors at YouTube don't like Father's preaching so we're not posting everything because we don't want his channel nuked).

In this episode Father discusses the profound crisis in the Church rooted in the Second Vatican Council, synodality, and modern ecclesial reforms which contradict prior infallible teaching and have led to doctrinal confusion, liturgical collapse, and moral corruption. The suppression of the traditional Roman Rite, the promotion of moral errors — especially regarding sexuality — and the infiltration of the Church by hostile forces are signs of a long-prophesied apostasy and an approaching chastisement. We must practice spiritual resistance through prayer, penance, fidelity to tradition, devotion to the Blessed Virgin Mary, and serious study of the saints and doctors of the Church.

In this sermon Father discusses the dogma of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary as defined by Pope Pius XII, emphasizing the Church’s infallible authority to proclaim divinely revealed truths and the necessity of assenting to every dogma of the Catholic faith. Mary’s Assumption is inseparable from her perfect detachment from sin and the world, her total conformity to the will of God, and her unique participation in Christ’s redemptive work through love, suffering, and humility. Let us imitate Mary and the saints by practicing detachment, living sacramentally, preparing daily for death, and trusting in Our Lady’s powerful intercession for perseverance and salvation. Key quotes from this sermon: St. Thomas Aquinas: “To reject one dogma is to reject them all.” St. Robert Bellarmine: The Art of Dying Well — “To die well, one must first die to the world.” St. Bernard of Clairvaux: “Blessed is that death which is purchased at any price.” St. Francis of Assisi: “My God and my all.” St. John of the Cross: “One may be attached even to something holy, such as a rosary.” St. Augustine of Hippo: “Before sin, the devil tells you God is merciful; after sin, he tells you God will never forgive.” St. Alphonsus Liguori: “As you live, so you will die.” St. John Vianney: Assurance given to Augustine Cohen regarding his mother’s salvation through Marian intercession. St. Bernardine of Siena: Christ Himself went forth to meet His Mother at her Assumption. St. Anselm of Canterbury: Christ ascended first in order to prepare and accompany Mary to her heavenly throne. St. Peter Damian: The Assumption of Mary surpasses even the Ascension in splendor. St. John Damascene: Christ Himself gave Mary Holy Viaticum before her Dormition.

In this sermon Father discusses the divine motherhood of the Blessed Virgin Mary as the foundation of all Marian doctrine and as inseparable from authentic Christology and the Catholic Faith. Attacks on Mary’s titles — especially Mother of God, Mediatrix of all Graces, and Co-Redemptrix — are signs of doctrinal collapse foretold by saints, councils, and Marian apparitions. Heresy against Mary inevitably leads to heresy against Christ; we need to remain steadfast, to defend revealed dogma even amid ecclesial confusion, and to deepen devotion to Our Lady — particularly through the Rosary — as a sign of fidelity and perseverance unto salvation. Key quotes from this sermon: St. Louis de Montfort: “Whoever wishes to possess Jesus must possess Mary.” St. Alphonse Liguori: “One good priest leads thousands to heaven; one bad priest leads thousands to hell.” St. Louis de Montfort: “Jesus is the fruit of Mary, and Mary is the true tree of life.” St. Justin Martyr: “The Virgin Mary became the cause of salvation for herself and for the whole human race.” St. Irenaeus of Lyons: “The knot of Eve’s disobedience was loosed by the obedience of Mary.” St. Augustine: “The elect are carried in the womb of Mary until she brings them forth into eternal glory.” St. Catherine of Siena: “This vice [sodomy] is so abominable that even the demons turn away in horror.” Links, Reading Material, and Books: The Holy Bible: Douay-Rheims Version (Paperback) he Holy Bible: Douay-Rheims Version (Leather bound) The Love of Eternal Wisdom Encyclical: Fulgens Corona The Council of Ephesus Council of Chalcedon The Second Council of Constantinople   "Video" versions of the podcasts are posted to Odysee, Rumble and sometimes on YouTube (The censors at YouTube don't like Father's preaching so we're not posting everything because we don't want his channel nuked).
