Do You Need Extraordinary Evidence to Believe in the Resurrection

Fr. John A. Perricone entered seminary in 1968 and watched from the inside as the Catholic Church underwent its most catastrophic crisis in modern history: heresy taught openly in classrooms, thousands of priests abandoning the faith, and a generation of bishops who did nothing to stop it. Today, he sees the tide turning with many returning to these previously discarded traditions of the Catholic Church.

In this conversation, Matt welcomes Sister Magnificat Rose and Sister Mary Grace of the Sisters of Life, a religious community founded in 1991 by Cardinal O'Connor to protect the sacredness of human life. The sisters share their vocation stories, the transformative encounters they have with strangers simply by wearing the habit, and the profound ministry they offer to women facing crisis pregnancies. The conversation weaves together deeply personal reflections on self-reliance, God's mercy, shame, community life, and what it means to truly see and receive every human person as sacred.
