Join us this week on "Honest to God" as we explore what happens when devout Baptists find themselves drawn to the Catholic Church?
In this deeply personal episode of Honest to God, we sit down with Grace and Joshua, two individuals whose paths to faith took unexpected turns.
Grace, raised Southern Baptist in rural Georgia, never gave Catholicism much thought until a chance encounter with a rosary walk sparked a curiosity that wouldn't be denied.
Joshua, the son of converted Catholics, held strong anti-Catholic views until a philosophy class and a journey into early Christian history challenged everything he thought he knew.
Hear their stories of grappling with long-held beliefs, wrestling with the mysteries of the Eucharist and the role of Mary, and navigating the emotional complexities of leaving their communities.
From Grace's gradual exploration through her sister's RCIA journey to Joshua's tearful moment of recognition in a Greek Orthodox church, they share the pivotal moments that led them to embrace Catholicism. We delve into the questions they asked, the doubts they faced, and the surprising answers they found.
Learn about the challenges of family reactions, the search for theological consistency, and the transformative power of encountering God in unexpected places.
Whether you're considering a conversion yourself, curious about different faith journeys, or simply seeking a story of honest spiritual exploration, this episode offers a raw and compelling look at the power of faith and the courage to follow where it leads. Join us as Grace and Joshua share their heartfelt advice for anyone exploring a new path, reminding us that God's call can come in the most surprising ways.

Join us this week on "Honest to God" as we discover the Virgin Mary, an icon of feminine strength.
In a world where femininity is often misunderstood, the Virgin Mary is a powerful female empowerment figure.
Her strength lies not in worldly power, but in her unwavering faith, courage, and selfless devotion. Mary's "yes" to God's call took immense bravery.
It meant embracing a unique path, one that defied societal norms and expectations. Her journey was not one of passive obedience, but of active participation in a divine plan.
Throughout history, Mary has inspired countless women to find strength in their own faith and resilience. She embodies the power of motherhood, not just in its physical aspect, but in its nurturing, compassionate essence.
We explore why the Virgin Mary is a true feminist icon, challenging conventional notions of femininity and celebrating the unique strengths of women.

Katy grew up bouncing around between different denominations. When she went off to college though, life got rough and she felt lonely. Then she came across Campus Catholic Ministries and while it started her conversion, she had a lot of questions on the Eucharist which when she wanted to become initiated she soon felt a physical pain.

It’s more important than ever for the Church to try and retain youth with more and more preferring to have no religious affiliation. This is done through youth ministry but even that can be a challenge, especially with technology being such a big distraction. In 2024, what is the best way to get teens to not only come to events but to keep coming and get something out of it so they stay with the faith once they graduate high school? Many parishes use LifeTeen for their Youth Ministry and we have missionaries from there to explain what works and does not work in youth ministry.

Just as there are multiple Lord of the Rings movies there also are multiple HTG episodes on it!

Well on today’s episode of HTG, we dive into the possibility of that evil being not just a corrupt businessman, but the source of Evil itself.

It’s no secret making friends as a young adult is hard. In high school, you’re forced to be around people 8 hours a day. If you go to college you’re forced to live with people and are still in a bubble where there are countless organizations to get involved in. But if you don’t go to college or recently graduated from there, it’s tough. Where do you start? City on Purpose takes the work out of it for you in Atlanta to find events, roommates, and more. We also discuss practical steps to take when searching and why in-person is more important than online.

When we think of aliens we think of green creatures with large heads and black eyes and antennas who want to destroy us all. This however is an idea put together by the government during the Cold War to avoid having the Soviet Union use that fear to their advantage. So, what are we to believe then, and if there are aliens out there, as Catholics, how should we view them? And what about UFOs? We delve into this and more with special guest Dr. Paul Thigpen who’s written a book on this exact topic and who himself has seen a UFO.

Benjamin Franklin says there are two certainties in life: death and taxes. A third one is bad things are going to happen to us in some way, shape, or form, throughout our life. It’s simply unavoidable. So, how do you respond to it when bad things happen and you understandably want to ask God why this is happening? We delve into how to keep one's faith in rough times in life.

There are many misconceptions about the Catholic faith, some rooted in faith-based questions, others on a simple dislike of the faith due to various reasons, many of which are understandable how they can think that. Bryan Mercer of Catholic Truth Organization calls in to answer many misconceptions people have of the faith and how to properly respond to those.

Today’s culture makes it harder than ever to be Catholic. There are so many different choices out there, many of which go against what Catholics say and often what society says is ok. So why be Catholic? The Church certainly has not had a pristine history and many other denominations bring up interesting arguments that certainly make you think. We delve into how our panelists became Catholic, many of whom are cradle Catholics but did not truly come into their faith until much later, and why they chose to stay Catholic once they are old enough to choose instead of going off to another.

One of life’s greatest gifts is music. Many feel like, to quote a Beach Boys song, “music is in my soul.” Yet what some call music, others do not. Some music can be vulgar or not used at the right time. Does the Church say anything about music? What if I like a song that I know is bad but it has such a great rhythm? Or what if the music at Mass is just not doing it for me? We delve into these topics and more, including a debate between our moderator and a panelist with strong, differing opinions.

It’s no secret the Catholic Church’s stance on birth control. But since the 1960s it has become increasingly harder to stay with the Church's beliefs on it when so much of the culture around us says it’s fine to use artificial birth control. Some even argue that NFP is just the Church’s version of birth control. Two panelists who practice NFP with their spouses explain how NFP is done, why they do it, the science behind it, and why it’s not just another version of birth control.

Long considered one of the greatest fantasy books of all time whose films are now also considered some of the greatest of all time, Lord of the Rings, while written by a Catholic, was not written specifically as a Catholic novel by Tolkien. While he maintained it was not an allegory, there are plenty of parallels between all that happens in Middle Earth and the Catholic faith. Our panelists dive deep into the story and see just how much there is.

Well either way we’re all gonna die t some point and it would probably be useful to know where we might end up. So on this episode of Honest To God, we discuss the differences and meaning behind the 3 places Catholics believe we go. Heaven, Hell, and even Purgatory.

The biggest question a high schooler faces today has become not if they go to college, but where they will go to college. This however is not the way it should be approached, as there are both pros and cons to attending college after high school. Is that sheet of paper you get at the end worth it? What if I decide halfway through college I need to do a reset? And what about keeping the faith, something many colleges are known for not exactly being like youth groups. We delve into these college questions and hear both sides of the argument on is college worth it.

What makes summer so great aside from the weather is this is a time of year when people are able to go off and do something they normally can't. In addition to finding out what the panelists and hosts are doing this summer, summer activities are discussed that you can do and how oftentimes the best ones are simply going somewhere and being. Not doing an activity, just sitting and enjoying with others.

Environmental Sustainability is most common in the secular world nowadays. But the way they seem to think we should go about it is by completely removing ourselves from the planet as much as we can. But what they don’t realize is that God put us on this planet to actually be one with it. And on today's episode of HTG, we discuss how we as Catholics can go about being good with the planet we've been given. Whether that’s by buying local and eating healthy. or it's living off the land and growing our own food. You'll walk away from today’s episode with some practical tips for living a little more sustainably.

Are you ready to date? No really, when was the last time you took a long look at yourself and asked if you think you're ready to fully make the commitment that comes with dating someone? Because it’s a much more important question than we think it is. Our dating lives have become so transactional in today's society. So today on Honest To God, we sit down with Fr. Martin O'Connor to talk to him about why it's important that we know how ready we are for dating.

We have a panel that consists of people with and without tattoos. Since the Catechism does not talk about tattoos, only on bodily mutilation, it’s up to us to decide if we are yea or nay on them. We look into the arguments both for and against. Our bodies are a temple and we are made in the image and likeness of God. But, self-expression can be a beautiful thing, and remembering our past sufferings as we continue forward on our journey in life is important too.

It is known the media often pokes fun at Catholicism and portrays it in a negative way, like nuns being mean. This is true and there are examples of it we discuss. However, in looking at the overall picture, it does not appear to be as bad as you think. Looking at major movies, there actually are a good number of instances where movies match up with Catholic teaching in underlying ways and show characters seeing the Church as an essential and important party. There are also examples in TV and one you may not have thought of Bollywood.

Motherhood in and of itself is a rewarding but challenging vocation. You're raising human beings! Catholic Motherhood adds another wrinkle to it, making it even more difficult. We have four Catholic mothers, all of whom have kids of varying ages, discuss what exactly being a Catholic mother entails, rearing kids into adults who are going to live holy lives, on top of regular parenthood, as well as the challenges that entails, threats to it, and advice to new moms.

We've discussed Theology of the Body from young adults out on their own, but what about from college students? Their views are often different than older young adults. It turns out these students from Georgia Tech know way more than just engineering. They discuss what longing is, the difference between staring and gazing, the human heart, morality, and why TOB is needed now despite it being a decades-old idea.

What is art? It is a very subjective question with a very subjective answer. So it’s no surprise when faith and art intersect, it gets even more subjective. Is it helping my faith or distracting me? Is it furthering our love for God or becoming an icon we worship? We delve into the idea of symbolism and authenticity when it comes to art and how art is a part of worship.

When we hear the word “chastity” we often think of the physical side of it. While that is a part of it, there is an emotional side to it too, not related to physical activity. We delve into emotional chastity: what that entails whether you’re single or dating or married and how spiritual formation is key to understanding and managing it in your life.

Feminism as we know it has been around for a long time. But in the past few decades, it’s taken on an even more noticeable definition of what it means to promote authentic femininity.

For those who have heard of John Paul II’s Theology of the Body, the assumption is that it’s about chastity. While sex is a key part of it, there is more to it than just sex. We delve into how it encompasses much more than just that. One of our panelists even got a Masters in Catechesis, so you KNOW she can explain it.

We all know that God exists. It's the basis of our whole religion. If we didn't know that to be true then we’d be lost. But what about those people who don't know? What about those that actively argue against his existence? How do we, when confronted by these people, stand up for our faith and prove the atheists wrong? Well this week on Honest To God we talk to Bryan Mercier. An expert in this exact topic. And even the author of “Is God Real?”.

Debuting in 2003 as a spin-off of the other popular dating show The Bachelor, The Bachelorette remains a popular show on ABC, with 19 seasons and 200+ episodes. Many of us watch it and while we can see that what they are doing isn’t how normal people date, we still can’t turn away from the drama that is portrayed. Like driving past a car accident, it’s bad to watch but we still do. Why do we watch and what is wrong with how these men and women go about dating on the show?

Many of us have seen classic Disney movies and have fond memories of watching them as kids. As we’ve gotten older, we see that sometimes (not all the time though!) is more to them than we thought, and not necessarily in a good way. Characters such as Gaston in Beauty and the Beast and Ariel in The Little Mermaid now that we’re older and wiser we can see there is more to these characters than meets the eye. So join us in this off-the-wall conversation about anything and everything Disney.

Being that the word Advent is derived from the Latin word Venite which means to come. It shouldn't be at all surprising that this is a season for preparation for the coming of something. And you might have already guessed what that something is. But how exactly can we best prepare for the coming of Christ? And what are some of the traditions we can implement around us to make this preparation more meaningful? Weill this week on HTG we go over some traditions we have. And some that we'd like to get going. And we hope that this episode can inspire you to make this season a little more intentional.

Priests are people too. Yet oftentimes we see them as we saw teachers in elementary school: someone who only does their job and nothing else. We don’t have time to ask them any in-depth questions that we’ve been pondering. Or perhaps life advice, such as dealing with scrupulosity or being invited to a same-sex marriage. Today on HTG We’re asking a local priest these exact questions. And a whole lot more!

What is masculinity? It’s something that is actually very hard to specifically define, so it’s better to instead look at the attributes of it. Once there, you then have to see how our idea of it came to be from millennia past and then see why it is how it is today. Yet today it is under attack and while some of it is warranted, the overarching idea of masculinity is still valid and necessary. Yet it has been distorted, especially by pornography.

In 2022, it’s no secret that fewer and fewer practice religion, and more and more are openly hostile to it. So who you surround yourself with has never been a more critical decision. Well, you’re in luck! Because there are intentional Catholic communities where it’s simply people of the same faith and values living together under one roof. But what is it like to live in these places? And isn't it bad to cut yourself off from the “Real” world? Well on this episode of HTG we dive into all that and more!

Many young adults now meet on dating apps through their phone. However, as with anything else involving the Internet, there can be a bad side to it. Dating apps often lead to mindless scrolling where you are deciding if you want to meet someone based on looks alone. Plus, you need to find out the best apps in terms of finding true, meaningful relationships, not just hookups. So on this episode of HTG, we talk to a whole bunch of young adults that have tried to use dating apps as their way to find love. We talk all about the good, the bad, and everything in between when it comes to the wild west of dating apps.

Saints have been around for centuries. This means many have experienced life and all its situations. After nearly 2000 years, there is now a saint for just about every profession, both old and new, and a patron for things as unique as bearded women and explosions. Even now a millennial has been blessed. Learn about some of the cool saints and their stories that you can’t help but be inspired by what they were willing to go through for their faith.

With the rise of streaming services, binge-watching has become part of daily vocabulary. Typically if you’re watching something for more than an hour that’s not a live sporting event, that would be considered binge-watching. While it is okay to need a break every now and then, it can be too much, too often, leading to dopamine overload. We often see binge-watch not just because we like the content, but because it is a pacifier. If it’s getting in the way of other responsibilities, especially spiritual ones, then it’s a problem. It is robbing us of physical human interaction and getting to truly experience the world due to constant stimulation.

“The Spiritual Cost of Binge Watching” by panelist Justin Saviano - https://georgiabulletin.org/news/2022/06/the-spiritual-cost-of-binge-watching/
C.S. Lewis quote on masturbation that can be applied to binge-watching/tech obsession too: “I agree that that the stuff about ‘wastage of vital fluids’ is rubbish. For me, the real evil of masturbation would be that it takes an appetite which, in lawful use, leads the individual out of himself to complete (and correct) his own personality in that of another (and finally in children and even grandchildren) and turns it back: sending the man back into the prison of himself, there to keep a harem of imaginary brides. And this harem, once admitted, works against his ever getting out and really uniting with a real woman. For the harem is always accessible, always subservient, calls for no sacrifice or adjustments, and can be endowed with erotic and psychological attractions which no real woman can rival. Among these shadowy brides he is always adored, always the perfect lover: no demand is made on his unselfishness, no mortification is ever imposed on his vanity. In the end, they become merely the medium through which he increasingly adores himself.” – C.S Lewis.

The greatest trick the devil has pulled is convincing us he didn’t exist. Often times he temps us not in large, overt ways but in small ways that can be a portal to bad. What we may think of as harmless fun could lead to more serious consequences. In this episode of Honest to God we hear stories from panelists about a real-life encounter with a witch as well as a war that Padre Pio encountered. We all have the timber of flame, be we can’t always keep it from being ignited. But we can fight it in numerous ways. All this and more!
