Who would you take with the number 1 overall pick in the 2023 saint draft? Dan and Ant drafted three saint teams, one for purity, one for theology, and one for martyrdom. Each team gets two saints, and we did not reveal our choices to each other beforehand. Some saints were juggernauts when it came to theology like St. Thomas Aquinas, while others are known for their heroic martyrdoms, like St. Max Kolbe. Who will win the 2023 saint bowl? Tune in to find out!

The Saints reach out to us from heaven, and early on in our conversions, St. Gemma incredibly reached out to Dan four times over the span of two days. Dan quarterbacked this podcast, and outlined some key aspects of her life including miraculous moments, her devotion to the Eucharist, and a comical encounter she had with her local bishop! After listening to this podcast, I (Anthony) was truly inspired to reach out to her more. She's a spiritual weapon in heaven just waiting for us to ask for her intercession. Also correction from the script: Gemma was canonized in the year 1940.* St. Gemma, pray for us!Check out our website: www.jmjmissions.comTikTok: @jmjmissions--- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/jmjmissions/support

Jesus certainly has some "mic-drop" moments in the Gospels. These were situations in which He didn't care what you were going to think of Him or how you were going to feel.

We're cutting our Ghosts and Demons series in half by giving tips on how to stay in touch with the Light. Ghosts and Demons Part II coming soon! **NOTE: A statement is made in this session that the Gospels can be traced back to 10-20 years of Jesus. To clear up confusion, the intention was not to say this of all four Gospels, but that a case can be made for Mark and possibly Matthew that they could have been written as early as 40-55 AD. Furthermore, the Gospel of John is widely considered to be the last Gospel written and was most likely written less than 100 years after Christ.

Most conversion stories you hear usually involve typical party lifestyle sins...maybe too much alcohol, promiscuity, or idol worship. Blessed Bartolo Longo was a full blown satanist.

Our good friend Denielle ventured outside of her comfort zone to join us on this podcast!

Listen in as we argue about whether or not Central New Jersey actually exists, what virtues we need to conquer pride, and why Padre Pio is the perfect saint to invoke when dealing with comfort zone issues!

Anybody can just flip open to a random page in the Bible and start reading...but there's no theater in that. Tonight we played a round of our famous "Bible Roulette" game. Along with a special guest, (Dan's sister, Nicole), we randomly took turns choosing a testament, book, chapter, and verse to see where we would land! Much to our surprise, the three readings ended up having almost EXACTLY the same theme. You'll have to listen to find out what it was!
