Ignatius Press Podcast

Are you a priest or discerning a vocation to the priesthood or know somebody who is discerning? Then this is the book for you—“Distributed Like Bread” (pre-order for release at 3.2.26) https://ignatius.com/distributed-like-bread-dlbp/?searchid=0&search_query=distributed

Hans Urs von Balthasar is well known for his great contributions to theology, but few know of his practical thoughts on priesthood and discernment. Therefore, in today’s episode, Dr. Jonathan Ciraulo and Andrew Petiprin discuss Fr. Balthasar and how he integrated his scholarly life and his priestly vocation. Dr. Ciraulo points out that Fr. Balthasar never received any formal education in theology beyond his time at the seminar and he sought to remain a student chaplain instead of an academic position. This kept him grounded in his theology and uniquely fit to guide priests and those in the process of discernment.

Dr. Ciraulo highlights Fr. Balthasar’s humility, his intellectual curiosity, and his openness to God. They also discuss Balthasar’s thoughts on priestly celibacy and donatism—the heresy that claims that validity of the sacraments depends on the virtue of the priest. This insightful discussion and corresponding book “Distributed Like Bread” will truly help give all people a greater appreciation for this supernatural vocation.

Today, Anthony Ryan, head of marketing at Ignatius Press, sits down with Andrew Petiprin to discuss Our Lady of Lourdes and St. Bernadette Soubirous. This conversation is guided by his great love for Mary and St. Bernadette because it is through the Ignatius Press offerings that he came to know more about them.

This conversation not only highlights the many offerings Ignatius Press has about the apparitions at Lourdes, but Andrew and Anthony also discuss the history of Lourdes and how it impacted the actress Sydney Penny, the singer Jennifer Warnes, and the saint Maximilian Kolbe. We hope that you listen to this podcast and purchase one of our many offerings so you too can learn more about these miraculous events and the often-overlooked saint—St. Bernadette.

In today’s episode, Dr. Barber and Ben Eriksen discuss salvation—the reason Christ became man, died, and rose from the dead. Despite the centrality of salvation, Dr. Barber claims that Catholics don’t talk about salvation as much as we should and argues that our understanding of salvation is of great practical importance. He tries to dispel the common misunderstandings of salvation to foster greater conversion and evangelization.

This extremely thoughtful and challenging episode is a must watch for all Catholics!

Rediscover the literature classics with the Ignatius Press Critical editions.

Sadly, many classical works of literature are poorly made and tainted with woke ideology in the introduction, footnotes, and explainers that distort the text itself. Thankfully, the Ignatius Press Critical Editions enable Catholics and all lovers of good literature to get their hands on a quality version of these great books. These books are not only well made but contain helpful introductions and footnotes to really help the reader get the most out of reading these texts. 

Today, Joseph Pearce, the series editor, joins Andrew Peteprin to reveal the inspiration behind these texts, why every Catholic should have them on their selves, and what works will be published next.
