After the Homily with Fr. Daniel Scheidt

In this episode, Fr. Daniel Scheidt walks through the Church's tradition on war and peace, from St. James's explanation of the passions that drive conflict, St. Augustine's just war principles, vengeance and it's consequences in the Book of Revelation, and more. He challenges us to remember that geopolitics is not something that happens on a screen and that knowing our neighbor might be the most radical thing a Christian can do right now.

In this episode, Dr. Chris Stroud sits down with Fr. Daniel Scheidt, pastor of St. Vincent de Paul Catholic Church in Fort Wayne, Indiana, to discuss a unique project 24 years in the making: a liturgical calendar that organizes life around the Church year rather than forcing sacred time into secular monthly boxes.The conversation explores why modern life makes slowing down so difficult and practical ways to align our daily lives with the liturgical seasons, transforming time from something that enslaves us into a pathway for encountering Christ.Whether you're a daily Mass-goer or someone who hasn't been to church in a while, the conversation offers a fresh perspective on how the Church's ancient wisdom about time can bring peace, purpose, and joy to your life.

Fr. Daniel Scheidt shares his first impressions of our new pope, Leo XIV. What do we know about Cardinal Robert Prevost that might tell us what he'll be like as Pope? How is he already similar and different from other recent popes? How will his life as an Augustinian religious priest impact him? What will his priorities be during his ministry? Fr. Dan shares his thoughts on all these questions and more.
