SSPX Podcast

Today on Questions with Father, we look upward—quite literally. What does the Catholic Church say about space travel? Is exploring the cosmos a noble pursuit, or does it risk becoming a modern Tower of Babel? We reflect on Pope Pius XII’s encouragement of scientific exploration, the real medical and scientific benefits gained from space missions, and the moral principles that help us judge the risks involved. We also examine the modern push toward space tourism, lunar colonization, and even reshaping human identity through technology. Where does legitimate discovery end and hubris begin? This episode offers a Catholic framework for thinking about humanity’s future beyond Earth.

What is the SSPX Podcast?

The SSPX Podcast is produced by Angelus Press, which has as its mission the fortification of traditional Catholics so that they can defend the Faith, and reaching out to those who have not yet found Tradition.

What is the SSPX?

The main goal of the Society of Saint Pius X is to preserve the Catholic Faith in its fullness and purity, to teach its truths, and to diffuse its virtues, especially through the Roman Catholic priesthood.

Authentic spiritual life, the sacraments, and the traditional liturgy are its primary means of bringing this life of grace to souls.

Although the traditional Latin Mass is the most visible and public expression of the work of the Society, we are committed to defending Catholic Tradition in its entirety: all of Catholic doctrine and morals as the Church has always defended them. What people need is the Catholic Faith, without compromise, with all the truth and beauty which accompanies it.

In this episode, we visit St. Isidore’s in Watkins, Colorado, just east of Denver where a rural plot of farmland became a beautiful Romanesque church. Fr. Paul Robinson walks us through the rich history of the priory, from its origins in a strip mall chapel to the donation of 18 acres and the building of one of the Society’s most beautiful churches. Now, that same community is answering a new call: to restore the church’s aging structure, to pave the lot after more than two decades of use, and to build a proper school so their children no longer have to study in the basement. With a multi-year capital campaign underway and incredible momentum already, the prospects are bright for St. Isidore’s. Now, let’s join Father Robinson for this episode of Sacred Restorations here on the SSPX Podcast.

In this episode, we travel to Jacksonville, Florida, where the faithful of St. Michael’s have taken on a monumental task: the restoration of a once-abandoned historic church in the city’s Springfield neighborhood. Originally built in 1920 as a Catholic parish and later sold to the Seventh-day Adventists, the church is now being reclaimed as a house of God and rededicated to Our Lady of Pompeii. With stunning Romanesque architecture, a historic altar from the Bronx, and a vibrant fundraising campaign already more than two-thirds complete, this project is uniting the community—and even bringing new souls to the Faith. We’ll hear the remarkable story of how this church was discovered, the spiritual symbolism behind the Pompeii connection, and the vision for making it a shrine of devotion in America. Now, let’s join Father Thomas for this episode of Sacred Restorations here on the SSPX Podcast.

The sermon you are about to hear was preached by Don Davide Pagliarani on the feast of the Purification, February 2, 2026, a feast that reveals Christ as the Light of the nations and Our Lady as inseparably united to His work of redemption. From Simeon’s prophecy to the sword that pierces the Heart of Mary, this sermon moves steadily toward the central truth that Redemption is never abstract, never painless, and never indifferent to the human heart. With clarity and urgency, he explains the role of Our Lady as Co-Redemptrix, and the responsibility placed upon every Christian to choose Christ without compromise. This next section marks a decisive and solemn moment in the sermon, where Fr. Pagliarani turns from doctrine to responsibility. He speaks openly about the future of the Society of Saint Pius X, the care of souls, and the grave question of episcopal consecrations, not as an act of defiance, but as a matter of conscience before God. What follows is a candid appeal grounded in one principle above all others: that in the Church, the supreme law is, and must always remain, the salvation of souls.

The sermon you are about to hear was preached by Archbishop Marcel Lefebvre on the feast of the Purification, a day when the Church contemplates Christ as the Light revealed to the nations and received in faith by Simeon. Speaking to seminarians receiving clerical investiture and Minor Orders, Archbishop Lefebvre uses this liturgical moment to reflect on separation from the world, the dignity of the soul, and the light of eternal truth given by Our Lord Jesus Christ. His words are not limited to those preparing for the priesthood. They speak to every Christian called to live in the light of Christ rather than the blindness of the world. With clarity and fatherly gravity, he presents the cassock, the minor orders, and the discipline of the seminary as signs of an interior calling: to belong wholly to God, to know Christ above all else, and to become a light for others. Rooted in Scripture, the Church’s prayers, and devotion to Our Lady, this sermon reminds us that only those who receive the light of Christ can truly give it to the world.
