His penance? Dump out a pillow. St. Philip Neri gave this penance to someone who confessed gossip, then instructed him to go gather every feather back. Words are the same: once they’re out, you can’t get them back. What helps you stop yourself before you gossip? #Catholic #Catholic101 #FatherRocky #StPhilipNeri

These are the kinds of priests we’re praying for this October. Pray the Rosary with us for them, live every night at 7pm CT on the Family Rosary Across America. #PrayForOurPriests #FamilyRosaryAcrossAmerica #RelevantRadio

No money. No building. 88,000 prayers. Mother Teresa needed a building in Calcutta and had no way to pay for it. So she set out to pray 88,000 Memorares, and she taught everyone around her to pray with her. Before they finished, the building was theirs. What intention would you pray 88,000 Memorares for? #Catholic101 #FatherRocky #Memorare #MotherTeresa

Your health. Your wealth. Your possessions. God can take everything except one thing. Blessed Fulton Sheen names the one thing that stays yours no matter what, and then explains why most people would rather not have it.

Your mom was quoting Scripture this whole time. “Elbows off the table” isn’t just a dinner rule from your parents. Father Rocky found it in the Book of Sirach (Ecclesiasticus), where Scripture warns against leaning on your elbow while eating meat. Sometimes the Bible shows up in the most ordinary places. Which table manner did your family drill into you the hardest? #Catholic101 #FatherRocky #RelevantRadio

Scripture calls Moses the meekest man who ever lived. Blessed Fulton Sheen points out that he didn’t start that way, and the story of how he got there gives hope to anyone who has ever lost their temper.

Their name still comes to you at odd moments. Mom. Grandpa. A friend you lost too soon. This November, write their names down, and your Relevant Radio family will pray for them. From November 2 to 10, we’re offering a free Novena of Masses for your loved ones who have died. Every name is prayed for. Add as many as you need. When you do, you’ll receive a short reflection from Fr. Rocky each morning of the novena, on death, judgment, Heaven, Purgatory, and the mercy Christ offers. Add their names before midnight, November 9: relevantradio.com/holy-souls #HolySouls #CatholicPrayer #Purgatory #RelevantRadio

God doesn’t care about numbers? Not quite. There’s a whole book of the Bible called Numbers. Scripture tells us there were 12 apostles. It tells us how many loaves and fish fed the crowd. It even records the exact catch the disciples hauled in: 153 fish. Somebody was counting. And the number God cares about most is simple. All of us, in heaven, together. Which number in Scripture has always stuck with you? #Catholic #CatholicFaith #Catholic101 #FatherRocky

Every priest on these slides was named by someone grateful for him. We're praying for priests every night on the Family Rosary Across America, live at 7pm CT. #PrayForOurPriests #FamilyRosaryAcrossAmerica #RelevantRadio

Want to go to purgatory? Father Rocky does. Heaven is the goal, but like a prom date asking for five more minutes, purgatory is God’s mercy giving us time to get ready. Let's all remember to pray for the holy souls in purgatory. #Catholic101 #FatherRocky #Purgatory #CatholicFaith

Blessed Fulton Sheen reminds us of the one name chosen by an angel, and why it's the only name that answers what's really weighing on you. Watch the full episode tomorrow on Relevant Radio+. #FultonSheen #BlessedFultonSheen #Catholic #CatholicFaith

God isn’t asking you to be successful. St. Mother Teresa put it simply: He only asks us to be faithful. Father Rocky breaks that down into the everyday stuff. Grace before meals. The Rosary. Mass on Sunday. Show up for God, and let Him handle the results. Which of those three is hardest for you to stay faithful to? #Catholic101 #FatherRocky #CatholicFaith #MotherTeresa

No child is disposable. Ever. Blessed Fulton Sheen begins with something you’d find in any grocery store. Then he turns it into one of the clearest reasons every child matters, and why a mother’s sorrow over a lost child runs so deep.

Do dogs go to heaven? Father Rocky answers. In heaven you’ll be completely happy. If that means having your dog, your dog will be there. But you’ll both be looking at God. What’s the first thing you hope to see in heaven? #Catholic101 #FatherRocky #RelevantRadio #CatholicFaith

The same night Chicago burned, Mary intervened. On October 8, 1871, the Peshtigo Fire killed thousands of people. Everyone who reached the shrine of Our Lady of Champion survived. Have you ever been to Champion? #Catholic101 #OurLadyOfChampion #BlessedMother

The Rosary won a naval battle. In 1571, the Ottoman fleet threatened Christian Europe. Pius V asked the faithful to pray the Rosary. On October 7, they won at Lepanto, and the Church has kept this day as the Feast of Our Lady of the Rosary ever since. What are you praying the Rosary for this October? #Catholic101 #OurLadyOfTheRosary #Rosary
