In this episode of Mountains Made Low, we explore the heart of Divine Mercy — the boundless love of Christ revealed through His compassion for sinners and His invitation to trust completely in His grace. We also share how our participation in this powerful devotion through God's grace allows us to actively participate in the salvation of souls.
In this episode, we reflect on the historic Artemis II mission, humanity’s return to the Moon, and what it reveals about the grandeur of creation. The vastness of space, the beauty of the Earth from afar, and the precision of the cosmos all echo the glory of God, the Creator of all things. Join us as we connect faith and discovery, and rediscover awe in the heavens that “declare the glory of God” (Psalm 19).
Every man is called to reflect the Fatherhood of God. And in a world confused about masculinity, leadership, and holiness, this truth must be reclaimed. Your children don’t need a perfect father. Your parish doesn’t need a flawless leader. Your friends don’t need a superhero. They need a man who is present; a man of prayer and humility who keeps getting up for love of them.
In a world that never slows down, this episode invites listeners to rediscover the sacred rhythm of rest.

Inspired by the words of Jesus, "I call you friends," and the reflections of Aristotle, we reflect on how authentic friendships strengthen virtue, challenge us to grow, and remind us that we a...
Our modern culture often speaks of “dying with dignity,” framing euthanasia as an act of compassion or control. But the Catholic Church offers a radically different vision, one grounded in the truth that God alone is the Author of Life. Every moment of our existence, even in weakness, carries profound dignity and purpose.
This episode invites you to rediscover true dignity at the beinning and the end of life and how we're called to...
In this episode, we explore the spiritual practice of discernment—what it truly means and what it doesn’t. Discernment isn’t just about making good choices or following gut instincts; it’s about cultivating a deeper awareness of God’s presence and guidance in the midst of mental noise and emotional stirrings.
Whether you're facing a major decision or seeking daily spiritual clarity, this conversation offers practical insights and g...

Lent is often seen as a time of sacrifice, a time when we give up coffee and chocolate and try to do extra good deeds, but it’s so much more. At its core, it’s really about transformation. In this episode, Dennis and Christine explore this sacred season and how it truly is a journey of returning to God with all our heart.
In this episode, Dennis and Christine explore five forgotten sins that many of us often engage in completely oblivious to their grave and sinful nature. (It only took Dennis 101 episodes to write a single sentence episode description!)

The internet and social media shape how we think, speak, and relate—but how should a Catholic evangelize in the digital world? In this episode, we turn to the wisdom of the popes—St. John Paul II, Benedict XVI, and Pope Francis—to explore how the Church understands the internet as a new mission field. We acknowledge the many dangers of social media and reflect on what it means to proclaim the Gospel online with truth, charity, and ...
Dennis and Christine dive into the most famous of Jesus’ parables: The Prodigal Son. This story is one everyone claims they know, but much of it’s details are lost in translation. Listen to hear what God is teaching us about his relentless mercy and boundless love for his children.
