Busted Halo Show w/Fr. Dave Dwyer

God continues to speak to us through Scripture, and Father Dave welcomes Tom Corcoran to discuss what we can learn from the Gospel story of the Rich Young Man. Tom is the co-founder and president of Rebuilt Parish and the co-author of "Jesus, the Rich Young Man, and the Meaning of Life: 6 Spiritual Disciplines for Finding Heaven—Even Now."

As we continue to celebrate the birth of Brett's new daughter, Father Dave welcomes friends of the show Kathryn and Scott Whitaker to offer wisdom as veteran Catholic parents of six.

Father Dave answers a listener's question about the Sacrament of Reconciliation. Joe says, "I take advantage of the Sacrament of Reconciliation one to two times a month, but my wife doesn't understand why I go so often and feels upset by it. What would be the best way to point my wife to God's saving grace through Confession without pushing her? She had a bad experience in Confession with a priest who admonished her and questioned her abilities as a mom."

As we celebrate the birth of Co-host Brett's new baby daughter Chloe Joy, Father Dave welcomes Catholic doula Mary Haseltine to discuss supporting mothers in pregnancy, birth, and postpartum. Mary is the founder of the website and app Made For This and the author of "Made for This: The Catholic Mother's Guide to Birth."

As educators wrestle with the impacts of AI in the classroom, Father Dave welcomes back friend of the show Brett Salkeld to discuss what Pope Leo says to teachers in his latest encyclical Magnifica Humanitas. Brett is the archdiocesan theologian for the Archdiocese of Regina in Saskatchewan, Canada and the author of "Educating for Eternity: A Teacher's Companion for Making Every Class Catholic."
