Restless Catholic Young Adults

Fr. Joseph Gill and Joe sit down to discuss the integration of the Catholic Faith and American Immigration policies. They explore the Church's teachings on immigration, the rights of migrants, and the responsibilities of host nations. The conversation delves into the principles laid out by the USCCB, the challenges of cultural integration, and the current immigration situation in the United States. They emphasize the importance of balancing compassion for immigrants with the need for lawful immigration practices and community support.

Fr. Joseph and Trisha sit down to discuss her reversion to the Catholic faith, discussing her "culturally catholic" upbringing, her investigation of Buddhism, and finally her return to the Catholic Church.

Fr. Joseph, Lauren, and Paul walk through the stages of the spiritual life described by St. Teresa of Avila including how to eliminate mortal and venial sin, imperfections, attachments and more. They also discuss what it takes to move forward in the spiritual life, and what desires might stand in the way. 

Fr. Joseph, Lauren and Paul discuss how young adults can and should relate to their parents. They discuss why the parent-child relationship must change with age, the boundaries that need to be put in place for a healthy relationship and why we are all called to love our parents into old age. They also cover how siblings relate to each other and their parents. 

On today's episode of Restless, Fr. Joseph, Joe, and Matt sit down to discuss Josef Pieper's "Leisure, the basis of culture". In doing so they draw the distinction between leisure and entertainment and discuss why leisure's greatest form is worship. They also cover the connection between leisure & friendship, the transcendentals (truth, beauty and goodness) and work. 

How is it possible to evangelize the people who most intimately know your faults? Fr. Joseph, Diane and Matt sit down to discuss how we should be evangelizing our families, from broaching the topic of the faith with those who have fallen away to raising kids in the faith. Jesus said, "a prophet is never welcome in his hometown", but does this mean that there can be no evangelization in the home?

Diane and Fr. Joseph sit down to answer questions about Catholicism, including:

• Are we saved by faith alone?
• Why do priests kiss the altar?
• What's the point of Marian consecration?
• Why shouldn't Catholics be cremated?

and more! 

Fr. Joseph, Paul, and Diane are the hosts of this week's episode of Restless. Paul and Diane just got engaged (to other people), so they sit down with Fr. Joseph to discuss the lessons that they each learned during their time dating as young adults. What's the benefit of being single? Should you lower your standards? Is Catholic Match any good? All this and more, on this week's episode of Restless! 

In this episode of Restless, Fr. Joseph, Diane, and Paul discuss the complexities of wealth and its implications from a Catholic perspective. They explore the nature of wealth, the moral responsibilities that come with it, and the balance between financial success and spiritual well-being. They also discuss how financial management is related to our vocations, most importantly, why everyone is called to develop the virtue of prudence in order to balance proper saving and generosity. Finally, they also cover the dangers of fame, ultimately emphasizing the need to seek Jesus above all material possessions. 

Fr. Joseph and Joe sit down to discuss the importance of prioritizing different Catholic liturgical seasons. Most fundamentally, this has to do with prioritizing the Sabbath day. What does it mean to truly take a Sabbath? How can you rid yourself of unnecessary tasks that resemble the servile labor Catholics are commanded to avoid? They also discuss the importance of being intentional with the various Liturgical seasons, Advent, Christmas, Lent and Easter, and especially not having certain ones bleed into one another. #catholicchurch #catholic #podcast
