We reflect on our son’s graduation from Benedictine College, the emotions it stirred, and why this season feels like a spiritual turning point. We also discuss easy ways to follow Pope Leo XIV’s papacy and explore how God meets us despite our past and calls us forward — again and again.
Plus: why it’s a great time to be Catholic.
After our son’s graduation from Benedictine College, we found ourselves unexpectedly reflecting on regret, longing, and the paths we didn’t walk — and why that matters less than where God is leading us now.
In this episode, we share:
• Why Benedictine stirred up something deeper in us
• The difference between envy, jealousy… and something else
• How Pope Leo XIV’s early messages are already shaping Rosary Army
• What to watch for in his weekly addresses and Regina Caeli reflections
• Why now is a really good time to be Catholic — even when the future feels uncertain We also welcome all the new Rosary Army Soldiers who found us through CatholicTV, EWTN Radio, and Catholic Faith Network. We’re glad you’re here.

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist
It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
