Catholic Drive Time - 877-757-9424 Date – Friday, August 25th 2023 – St. Louis IX, King of France Top 10 notes on St. Louis IX, King of France, presented in historically chronological order: 1. **Early Reign and Marriage:** Louis IX became king at age 11 after his father's death and married Marguerite of Provence at 19. He ruled during the regency of his mother, Blanche of Castile, who successfully navigated political struggles against various factions. 2. **Struggles and Victories:** During Blanche's regency, France saw victories over rebellious factions like Raymond VII and Pierre Mauclerc, solidifying the Crown's authority. 3. **Crusading Zeal:** Louis's reign combined his responsibilities as a national ruler with his commitment to Christian causes. He sought to address both the governance of France and his duty to Christendom. 4. **First Crusade:** Stricken with illness in 1244, he decided to undertake a crusade after hearing of Turcoman invasions in Jerusalem. His military endeavors were marked by this intertwining of political and religious motives. 5. **International Diplomacy:** Between his two crusades, Louis engaged in diplomatic efforts, like negotiating the Treaty of Paris with England's Henry III. This treaty aimed to avoid conflicts and displayed Louis's preference for peaceful solutions. 6. **Protection of Clergy:** Louis collaborated with the popes to protect the clergy from secular interference and abuses, even during his absence on crusade. His reign was marked by cooperation between the monarchy and the Church. 7. **Pragmatic Sanction Controversy:** Historians debate whether Louis issued a pragmatic sanction in 1269 to curb papal influence over French ecclesiastical appointments. Some later used this alleged decree against the papacy, but its authenticity is doubtful. 8. **Peace and Justice:** Louis's rule emphasized peace and justice. He established a fair judicial system, constructing a court of justice, and promoted equity in governance. His wisdom was rooted in his deep Christian faith. 9. **Architectural Patronage:** St. Louis supported architecture, notably overseeing the construction of the Sainte-Chapelle, a masterpiece of Gothic architecture. He also founded the Sorbonne, a renowned theological institution. 10. **Exemplary Holiness:** Louis IX lived a life of personal holiness, marked by devotion, penance, and charity. He cared for the poor, practiced humility, and was known for his wisdom, which was a virtue deeply interwoven with his faith. St. Louis IX's reign epitomized the integration of faith and governance, exemplifying the ideal of a wise Christian monarch committed to justice, charity, and the well-being of his subjects.

Catholic Drive Time - 877-757-9424 Date – Monday, August 7th, 2023 – St. Cajetan 1. St. Cajetan was born in 1480 in Thiene, Northern Italy, into a noble family. 2. He co-founded the Congregation of the Theatines, aiming to promote the Catholic Reformation. 3. The Theatines lived exclusively on spontaneous alms, showing great confidence in God's providence. 4. The Middle Ages saw the decadence of the clergy due to their attachment to wealth and luxurious lifestyles. 5. St. Cajetan sought to restore the balance between riches and poverty in the Church. 6. The Theatines exemplified poverty even more rigorously than the Franciscans, depending solely on voluntary alms without asking for them. 7. St. Cajetan's religious family brought a stronger example of poverty to the Church, countering the materialistic tendencies of the time. 8. The Theatines' commitment to poverty brought about a renewal of the ideal of poverty in the Church. 9. Divine Providence calls certain individuals to counter-attack the evils afflicting the Church and society, and St. Cajetan exemplified this mission. 10. As Catholics, we are called to uphold the spirit of hierarchy, discipline, and order, just as St. Cajetan took poverty to unimaginable limits. St. Cajetan, pray for us!

During his lifetime, St. Dominic played a crucial role in combating heresy, reconciling heretics, and converting many. His reputation for holiness, learning, and apostolic zeal drew numerous disciples to follow him. 10. St. Dominic's death occurred on August 6, 1221, in Bologna, Italy, after a brief illness. His remarkable achievements, miracles, and dedication to the propagation of the true faith led to his canonization in 1234 by Pope Gregory IX, who compared his sanctity to that of Saints Peter and Paul.

Catholic Drive Time - 877-757-9424 Date – Thursday, August 3rd, 2023 – St. Erlembald 1. St. Erlembald was a Milanese Lord and fearless knight of Christ who lived in the 11th century. He came from a wealthy and influential family and held a position of great relevance in Milan. 2. Despite his opulent lifestyle, Erlembald's heart was turned towards God, and he considered entering monastic life after returning from a pilgrimage to the Holy Land. 3. St. Arialdo, a deacon, counseled Erlembald not to become a monk but to remain a lay knight and fight for the Church, which was suffering from simony and impurity in the clergy. 4. Pope Alexander II supported this decision and gave Erlembald a standard to combat the enemies of Christ and defend the Church, even to the shedding of his blood if necessary. 5. Erlembald was known for his charitable acts, caring for the poor and the sick, and defending the interests of the Church in Milan. 6. For ten years, he fought against the spread of simony and corruption, often clashing with Archbishop Guido of Velate, who protected these abuses. 7. Erlembald's actions and efforts led to his excommunication of Archbishop Guido, but the latter continued to create unrest and resistance against him. 8. Together with St. Arialdo, Erlembald faced opposition from those who supported the corrupted Prelates and heretical practices, leading to violent confrontations. 9. Erlembald's commitment to the cause of the Church and the Pope continued throughout his life, and he became a symbol of strength and bravery in the fight against corruption and heresy. 10. St. Erlembald ultimately died fighting for the Catholic Faith and the Pope, leaving a legacy of courage and determination in defending the Church and combating evil in his time.

Catholic Drive Time - 877-757-9424 Date – Wednesday, August 2nd, 2023 – Queen of Angels 1. In 1863, a Bernardine Sister was shown the desolation caused by the Devil throughout the world and heard the Blessed Virgin Mary speaking about the need to pray to her as Queen of Angels for assistance against these evil forces. 2. The Sister inquired why the Angels couldn't be sent without asking, to which Our Lady replied that prayer is a condition required by God Himself to obtain favors. 3. Our Lady communicated a prayer to the Sister, urging her to have it printed and distributed everywhere. The prayer invokes the holy Angels under the command and power of Mary to combat and drive away evil spirits. 4. The prayer asks for the defense and protection of the Angels against the cruel enemy and is approved by the Church, granting a 300-day indulgence to those who say it. 5. The Revolution, an evil force that has spread throughout the world, is believed to be supported and influenced by the Devil. The iniquity of the Revolution is seen in its historical eruptions, such as the Protestant Revolution and the French Revolution. 6. The Revolution shows iniquity beyond human evil, indicating the influence of the Devil in its propagation. Many men have succumbed to this extreme evil, and this demonic infestation suggests that the Devil has effectively become the lord of the world. 7. The fight against the Devil is an essential part of the counter-revolutionary struggle. Our Lady, as Queen of the Angels, has the power to expel devils using the Angels as her agents. 8. God entrusted the governance of the universe to created beings, and Angels are intermediaries between God and men, making them the appropriate agents to combat the devils. 9. Men play a special role in this fight. They must invoke Our Lady as Queen of the Angels and ask her to expel the devils from the world. This prayer is crucial in combating the demonic infestation and preparing for the Reign of Mary. 10. By asking for Our Lady's intercession and protection against the evil influence of devils, individuals can seek freedom from temptation and work towards establishing the Reign of Mary, where her rule will bring harmony and grace to the world. Queen of Angels, pray for us!
