Special Report: St. Alphonsus for the 21st Century
Author Stephen Kokx shares with us his insights into the importance of the life and writings of St. Alphonsus Liguori (1696–1787). His insights are personal and inspiring. The founder of the Redemptorists and author of the most famous Way of the Cross has much wisdom to inspire Catholics in the midst of the ongoing crisis in the Church. Be sure to listen until the end of the interview when Mr. Kokx shares an interesting insight into the recent persecution of Bishop Joseph Strickland of Tyler Texas. You can purchase Mr. Kokx book on St. Alphonsus in paperback and Kindle editions on Amazon.

Our stories this week include: (1) the new set of dubia submitted to Pope Francis by a group of five cardinals ahead of the Synod on Synodality general assembly, which began yesterday (Oct. 4) in Rome, as well as dubia submitted by the Czech Episcopal Conference regarding access to the sacraments for divorced and civilly "remarried" Catholics; (2) a new text from Archbishop Carlo Maria Viganò in which he argues that Francis's "acceptance of the papacy is invalidated, because he considers the papacy something other than what it is" (i.e., lack of proper consent, analogous to an invalid marriage); and (3) the historically unprecedented ousting of Rep. Kevin McCarthy from the office of House Speaker.
