@Deborah Faith Thompson in my prayers too Deborah and offerings!!! My husband and I are the first-generation of practicing/faithful Catholics in our families and just when we think its so great, it GETS BETTER! It truly gets better each day (of course there are lots of trials in life too and part of Catholicism i.e. "the world will hate you" etc. But it has been the GREATEST JOY of our lives!!! Also today is St. Faustina's feast day and even if you don't know her I would just offer a prayer to God and ask for her friendship/intercession because she is just that amazing as a saint and friend in heaven to get to know -- even just "St. Faustina, help me to get to know you better!" - Love, Deborah!
Ditto. The Wild Goose series paired with Scott Hahn's "Rome Sweet Rome" , among several other spiritual instances, I was as good as dead to try and run. I forget who said it, but the saying goes " you can't study the early church and not become Catholic."
My husband and I visited this university for the “Defending the Faith” conference. It truly was a beautiful experience. I highly recommend their summer conferences.
You can't cancel one who has not subscribed (love it!) ...in truth, charity, humility & wisdom...glad you are holding up this faith position and tradition. Thanks, Fr. Dave!
Fr. Dave, PLEASE dont ever give up the fight. Like the bakery owner who has continued to stand up for his beliefs, we need more people t ok stand up for normalcy.
I received the baptism of the holy Spirit in the assemblies of God. When I became a Catholic I brought that with me and I continue to speak in tongues. It amazes me how many Catholics say, that's a protestant thing! God is alive and is moving.
This was so enjoyable. I'm old and retired now, but if I could have one wish it would be to live in Steubenville for at least a while before I die. Father Dave is such a blessing and it's been a joy to view this conversation.
I get it...I will turn 62 at the end of October...which sounds freaking crazy...but its true! (Ha) It really would be a heartwarming experience to live in a Catholic community. Just imagine what it would be like running into Dr. Scott Hahn or Matt Fradd at the grocery store. Actually it would probably be Kimberly and Cameron, which would be just as wonderful. ⚘️
My two daughters attended Franciscan from 2012-2019, and we were thrilled that Fr Dave took over as President because he is an evangelist after the model of Fr Scanlon and St John Paul and St Francis.
I must add that the (now deceased) bishop who gave the homily at the 2019 Baccalaureate Mass was rather woke and berated the students on racism. We found it very disheartening since we are a biracial family and my daughter spent a spring break doing mission work in NYC. I’m so grateful for the new springtime of your leadership Father Dave.
I love how there’s almost a father/son dynamic to this conversation. A couple times Fr Dave asserted a “Patience! Let me finish my story!” tone and Matt had like a total non-reaction and they just kept chatting haha
I am a grandmother and I want to say... it is WONDERFUL to hear young people talk this way, think this way and act this way. You can believe me that one day when you are married, you will bear the fruit of being true to yourself and Christ and to your morals... no baggage that you carry into a marriage from sleeping around and collect a lot of guilt. Oh! may God bless you, and may your life just be a blessing to yourself and the family you and your spouse will raise one day! Thank you for this inspiring talk! God bless 🕯🕯🕯👐👐👐
With all due respect, have either of you been to TLM? The Church's liturgy in the TLM has endured for 2000 years -- its timeless, reverent, all about our Lord in the Eucharist, and mostly silent. I don't know how they would come together? But please, educate me if you have an idea of how that could happen?
@@patty378 I’ve seen it in Augusta, GA. I don’t mean to say that we can “merge” TLM and loud charismatic worship. It’s more the spirit if it all. There are devout charismatic Catholics in Augusta and also devout TLM folks, and they aren’t competing groups, instead they have unity. I’m charismatic and love TLM, many folks around here are like that. It hard for me to articulate, but I can just feel here how “charismatic” and “traditional” are not opposing groups or ideas. They fit together perfectly (when under the Lordship of Jesus.)
Charismatic background nearly all my life, but my family & I absolutely love the TLM. I actually saw a shirt being sold online that said “Tradismatic”😁 Looks like there are more of us than we think!❤️
TRULY AWESOME.THANK YOU GOD for a strong and amazing Faith. May the HOLY SPIRIT GRANT you Wisdom and Knowledge to continue to Fight the Good Fight for JESUS and Church.GOD BLESS Father, and Matt,
This was such an encouraging and hope-filled interview. Fr. Dave is such an inspiration as is the Franciscan U. of Steubenville. Duquesne U., Carlow U. and so many others have capitulated to the secular culture in so many ways 😞
At my church's men's group, we watch videos made by That Man is You, and we'll actually be watching a video Fr. Dave Pivonka made for them this Saturday, so this is like a nice preview/extra content of what we'll likely experiencing this Saturday. Looking forward to watching both that video and this one!
listening to matt talk on Exodus 90 as I am getting my half hour workout and then heading to my cold shower matt it’s not hard it’s great to be with God!
Fr Dave's series The Wild Goose on The Holy Spirit, Ohh My 🙏👍🙏 Come Holy Spirit please Come 🙏 Come on Spirit light my fire, and let's slowly start the Southern Swamp on fire. Shout to The Lord, give Him Praise's, because He's King 🙏 And Worthy 🙏
Listening to Fr. Ripperger (the exorcist) praying in tongues scares me. He points out that speaking in tongues isn't like the movies, it's not speaking in nonsense, it's speaking in other languages you've never studied, ones you have no way of knowing. Now there's a possibility that this is the Holy Spirit working through you in the same way as He did through the Pentecost, and if this is the case, GOD BLESS YOU, because you are pure of spirit and free of sin. I worry for myself, as I know my own sin, that it would be a spirit less than that of the Holy Spirit. Just food for thought.
I'm jealous. I've been to Steubenville a couple of times in the last couple of years, but that conversation made me want to come and live in Steubenville within that community. Oh, yeah, Father Dave. You HAVE to read the Lord of the Rings. The greatest work of literature of the 20th century. And its about as spiritually Catholic as can be.
I’m a young 75 yr old widow -female and want to come to Stubenville to live but that sure doesn’t seem realistic but i have visited twice and still savor every moment there on campus & went to mass & saw the very old little chapel.
My father had a word processor. You'd type it all up and review line by line. Then you could initiate a print. The text was orange in color over a dark sepia background. Brother was the company.
regarding Jordan Peterson's wife..she had a good friend bring her a rosary when she was sick in hospital....she started saying it since and she recovered unexplainably. She does enjoy Bishop Barron's videos, but it wasn't because of him.
There is so much misunderstanding about what is Catholic and its the fault of the teachers. The Church is made up of many different charisms and ministries by which the Church is built up. The Holy Spirit imparts many special graces called charisms by which he makes the faithful fit and ready to undertake various tasks and offices for the renewal and building up the Church. (CCC 698, 798). You can read more about charisms in the Catechism. It is in CCC 799-801.
Great stuff Matt, as usual. Regarding celebrities converting to Catholicism(Peterson maybe, Lebouf) We should praise and celebrate all sincere conversions. However, and this is something I have struggled with, we should not treat a celebrity conversion the same way a sports fan celebrates their team getting the best free agent or coach:) I am not saying you are doing this Matt, just something that me and I am sure that others struggled with.
Amen! I went to my first Steubenville conference last weekend. When I got home, all of my UA-cam history was deleted. Instead of ridiculous culture war stuff, I’ve been populated with Catholic stuff like this. I kind of wish the Benedictine school at my home parish had the reputation of building the church like Franciscan…with that being said, it might just be a charism difference. The Benedictines are awesome in their own way.
On “divisions that don’t need to exist”: I think the hierarchy, authority, and structure of the Catholic Church allows me freedom in spirituality. Because there are “rails” on this train, I am free to express my spirituality in a myriad of ways. I can also give that freedom to others. The church is universal and I’m not afraid of the Mass in India looking different than the Mass in Montana. I’m not afraid of the cultural differences in Mass because I know there is a clear liturgical structure, a scaffolding. I understand that we will make mistakes and “color outside the lines” sometimes, but there are defined lines in the Catholic Church! I trust God to lead us and I trust that we will “straighten out” when needed, even though it will take time. It allows me to release the clutch of control, release my desire to have everything look and sound exactly as I see fit. But it’s not a licentious “all roads lead home” attitude, it’s merely freedom operating within structure. Does that make sense?
As an alumni (student from '12-'16) I will say that the only option was to be closeted on campus. It wasn't even a question. I'm continually surprised by how many of my classmates come out in their post grad years. There's a lot of pain attached to that - and a particular resentment towards those 4 years. And to an extent, I get it. Had there been any type of support network or discipleship community like Fr. Dave is describing back then, I think it would have made a huge difference for those students. College is a confusing time as we navigate growth into adulthood. As Christians we can't carry things in isolation. Just acknowledging there ARE queer students on campus is a big step - and creating a space and seat at the table for them is so necessary. I'm glad to hear that there's at least something. I pray that will continue to be fostered.
What if Franciscan University accountant ask for your Social Security after being accepted into university ??? I was an A student when the accountant threatens me so I cannot register for more online classes ??? HOw is this legal or ethical ??? I filed three complaints and not have heard back at all ?
Too much bass in the audio, it's somewhat drowning. I've noticed this in the last few episodes. Feel free to delete the comment. Just adding some feedback. I use simple Bose computer speakers. God Bless you all.
Please can fr Dave Pivonka - who I listened to today - check with a medic what might be a rodent ulcer underneath his right eye. It needs removing immediately if it is, Sincerely Agnes
I have such an uncomfortable feeling about the charismatic practices of tongues or praying over others in "another language". I've had it forced on me (someone praying over me in her prayer "language") and this same person also randomly gives "prophesies" about people. It really rubs me the wrong way. Her explanation is "well I don't feel like its coming from me so it is coming from God". Is it not the height of hubris to pronounce to others that you are being spoken through by God when you aren't filtering that through anyone but your own feelings? This might not be the universal teaching (for lack of a better word) of the charismatic movement but it's what I've experienced. And it was basically just a lighter version of what I experienced as a protestant (that's way more intense).
This is a very interesting conversation. The only issue I have with it is you guys made what it is to be “woke” and dumped everything that you deem adverse to your beliefs in that category. The term has been hijacked in so many ways.
Agreed. The conservative side tends to lump all anti-racism, anti LGBT discrimination folks into the “woke” crowd. In actuality there is definitely a crowd of liberal Marxists trying to push their agenda, but many of the problems they bring up are actual problems. White supremacy is a real issue where I live and conservative Catholics are missing that convo a lot by writing off everything that sounds remotely liberal as “Marxist wokeism.” It’s nuanced. We have to parse out the truth within the movement and answer those concerns that are legitimate.
It’s a ministry in Ireland. Matt recently interviewed the leader of it…Tony Foy, I think. It’s seems like a “Gap year missionary program” of sorts. Pretty cool.
Fr. Dave is a SUPER BIG influence in me changing from Charismatic Non-Denominational to Catholic!
Praise God 🙏

I’ve thought that for the last 13 years!

What would call it then?
@@Trivico ideological radicalism. “Wokism” is an ambiguous term that bears no meaning. Leftist ideological radicalism is more accurate and charitable
