  • Pastor Nate Pickowicz: Overcoming Spiritual Darkness Can Be An Issue of the Heart

    Pastor Nate Pickowicz: Overcoming Spiritual Darkness Can Be An Issue of the Heart
    2026/02/15
    The prophet Jeremiah warned about putting too much reliance on the heart, saying, "The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it?"And yet in today's nomenclature, the heart reigns supreme as the purveyor of truth, that its feelings equate with reality. But what if the heart is filled with darkness? What if the heart leads you into spiritual depression and anxiety? On this episode of the Lighthouse Faith podcast, Pastor Nate Pickowicz talks about his book, "Overcoming The Darkness", and his own battles with anxiety and spiritual darkness, and how the Bible has long offered solutions. This conversation differentiates between a battlefield of the mind and spiritual warfare. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

    Catholicism's Bull Dog: Bill Donohue Pulls No Punches, Lambasting NYC Mayor Mamdani on Religious Freedom
    2026/02/08
    Always feisty. Always blunt. The Catholic League's president, Bill Donohue, is not terribly fond of New York City's new Mayor, Zohran Mamdani. And it's not because Mayor Mamdani is Muslim. He doesn't care about that. What he cares about is the observation that Mamdani has excluded traditional religious practices, specifically, Judeo-Christian heritage. On this episode of the Lighthouse Faith podcast, Donohue unleashes a laundry list of complaints he's logged that prove his points. He also has some words for the state of Catholic higher education and how he believes they're moving from traditional Christian values to adopt a more secular agenda. Believe him or not, Bill Donohue always does his homework and has the facts to back up his claims. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

    "Among Neighbors": Spotlights The Tragedy In A Small Polish Town for International Holocaust Remembrance Day
    2026/01/25
    There are many films and documentaries about World War II and the grim reality of the Holocaust of the six million Jewish lives taken at the hands of Nazi's, and the subsequent allied victory that brought it all to an end. Or did it? The documentary "Among Neighbors," shows the lingering effects of the cruelty of the Third Reich, when even six months after the end of the war, as Jewish survivors of the death camps returned to their homes and villages, they found that life could never be the same with the neighbors with whom they once enjoyed a blissful co-existence. For seventy years one woman, who witnessed the brutal killing of five Jewish neighbors, kept her silence.... until now. On this episode of Lighthouse Faith podcast , filmmaker, writer and director Yoav Potash, talks about the making of the film, and why so little is known of these precarious days of supposed peace, which brought so little of it to so many. And how the malignancy of Hitler's hate continued to spread for years. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

  • Jesus And The Sermon On The Mount

    Jesus And The Sermon On The Mount
    2026/01/18
    TED Talks are 18-minute videos of influential speakers. So, here's a question: What would Jesus say if he gave a Ted Talk? Turns out, He already did some two-thousand years ago, and it's probably one of the most, if not the most, influential and profound speeches of all time. It's called the Sermon on the Mount, found in the book of Matthew. Many people may not know its name, but they know many of the golden nuggets of Jesus's core teachings that come from it, like The Lord's Prayer, "Our Father who art in heaven..." and the Beatitudes like "Blessed are those who mourn for they shall be comforted." Lauren revisits a conversation with Dr. Robert Jeffress, Senior Pastor at First Baptist Dallas, on the philosophies and Divine guidance of the Sermon on the Mount in his book, "Eighteen Minutes with Jesus: Straight Talk from the Savior about the Things that Matter Most."

    No matter what your professed faith is, it has to be lived through relationships. It's unavoidable. Faith without interaction with other image bearers will inevitably be weak.

    A Year Of Faith: Reflecting On The Historic Election of Pope Leo XIV
    2025/12/28
    When the white smoke billowed from the Sistine Chapel chimney Thursday evening, Fr. Roger Landry, like millions around the world, waited to see who among the 133 cardinals had just become the 267th successor to St. Peter. He knew to listen for the Latin version of the Cardinal's birth name in order to translate to a media outlet. He knew there were only four Cardinals with the first name Robert. But he was listening for "Petrus," but instead, he heard Robertus... And was shocked! This is the drama that unfolded in St. Peter's Square as tens of thousands packed into the piazza and the Via della Consilienza, cheered as the Basilica's bells peeled with joy, knowing Habemus Papem, "We have a Pope!" On this episode of the Lighthouse Faith podcast, Lauren reflects on her journey to Rome, Italy, covering the momentous event when the first American-born pope had just been elected. Fr. Landry, the National Director of Pontifical Mission Societies USA, discusses the moment that captivated the world. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
