Why do bad things happen to good people? This perennial question has been pondered by philosophers and saints, ordinary folks and artists, for centuries. It still makes people pause - why does God allow evil? Is He powerless? Or is it possible for him to bring great good out of the suffering of this world? Our Catholic Faith shines light on this great question of evil in the world - and its redemption.

One of the more hot-button issues of today's world is climate change.

Many people speak about "the Church" - but what, exactly, is the Church? Is it the priests, the people, the Bride of Christ, an administrative entity?

From the beginning, the Church has always held up martyrs as the epitome of the Christian life. After all, Jesus said that "greater love has no man" than to lay down his life. Even an early Church writer said that "the blood of martyrs is the seed of Christians". To this day, martyrdom still occurs in many places in the world. Who are some of the martyrs who have made an impact on us? Is martyrdom something that Christians should desire? If we have no chance to shed our blood for Christ, how can we still show that "greatest love"? Tune in to hear the Restless crew discuss the pinnacle of self-giving love: martyrdom.

One of the most enduring and well-loved saints is St. Therese of Lisieux. Known for her "Little Way" of holiness, she sought to do all things out of love - a powerful, simple way to reach Heaven! Tune in to Restless to hear Fr. Joseph and Diane speak about this beloved saint and the lessons she teaches us for our everyday lives!

Mother Teresa once said, "You can find Kolkata everywhere, if only you have the eyes to look." In other words, we don't need to travel to far-off lands to find the poor, or to find where we are meant to serve...as Christians, service is as close as our kitchen or our front door. Where's YOUR Kolkata, where you are called to serve the poor - either those who lack material goods, or those with the deeper spiritual poverty of our age?
-
As we are halfway through Lent, the temptation is to grow slack. Pray less; indulge a bit more; cut corners. We may make heroic resolutions for holiness, but find ourselves trapped in mediocrity! How do we know if we are being lukewarm in our spiritual lives, and if so, how do we get out of that rut? Tune in to hear Fr. Joseph, Diane, and Lauren discuss tips to overcome mediocrity in our quest for Heaven!

During Lent, we often choose to do difficult things - give up a beloved food, deny ourselves a pleasure, pray when it is challenging. Adversity - both the difficult things we choose, and that which God sends us - makes us who we are, if we are willing to learn the lessons that challenges want to teach us. There is no holiness without adversity; no growth without challenges; no Resurrection without the Cross. Tune in to hear Fr. Joseph, Joe, and Paul discuss how adversity has helped them to become the men they are today!

Joseph, Paul, and Lauren discuss tips and ways to overcome our natural dislike of certain people, so that we might love with true Christian charity, as God loves us all!

The news can seem kinda depressing. War, terror, the collapse of Western civilization...all in a day's headlines. How tuned-in should Christians be to current events? Where should they get their news sources? How can we keep joy and hope when the news around us seems depressing? And why is the "Good News" of the Gospel not as fascinating as today's headlines? Tune in for all the Restless (discussion about) news!
