The Catholic Wire: Recent Episodes
TheCatholicWire Network
What's going on in the Catholic Church? What am I to do to be a good Christian?
The Catholic Wire is created as a network, with the purpose of hosting all the resources necessary for Christians in our day and age, to come to the knowledge of the truth, in doctrine, morals, and anything that pertains to our eternal salvation and the good of the Church and Christendom.
We are aiming to reach, not only those who are already in the Faith, but also those who might be in the search for it, and even those who are morally or doctrinally lost. Our desire is to provide the materials necessary for each particular situation, the information that befits different souls, with different capacities, in order to lead them all, little by little, by the same path, the one set by Our Blessed Lord.
The Goal is great, and we do not intend to reach it with our own strength. We seek not for the completion of it, but our success consists in working as hard as we can, for the salvation of souls, and the greater Glory and Love of God.

Many times we hear protestants and even modern Catholics object against the devotion of the Holy rosary. In this sermon, we address and refute the objections against vocal prayer, and against devotion to the Most Holy Rosary.
Many today have seen and witnessed a crisis going on in the Catholic Church. For many, this problem consists in seeing "Bad Bishops", "Bad Priests" and a "Bad Pope". Many also believe that the crisis is mainly the lack of morals, or of a spine in the Catholic Hierarchy. Both of these opinions are seeing the problem partially or under a wrong perspective.
The truth is that the crisis in the Catholic Church consists in a counterfeit organization, which has been running under the esteem and prestige which the Catholic Church but has abandoned the faith. As the situation stands today, the Catholic Church remains, with its morals, and its faith untainted, but only in a few Bishops and Priests.
How can we tell what precisely is wrong with that counterfeit organization, and what are our grounds as Catholics to realize its deviation from the True Catholic Church? This show covers on a glimpse, what are the main points which have been attacked, and which we as Catholics, must therefore strive to sustain and preserve, together with the faithful Catholic Bishops and Priests.
We learn about the crisis, so we can learn how to be faithful to the Catholic Church, until it regains that splendor which Christ himself has given it!
