The Catholic Morning Show - 05/07/2026

On this episode of the Catholic Morning Show, Deacon Randy Kiel reflects on Acts chapter 8 and the incredible growth of the early Church following the Resurrection. He explores Philip’s evangelization, the role of the Holy Spirit, and how every Christian is called to proclaim the Gospel through lives of humility and obedience to Christ. Curtis Brown joins the show to discuss the upcoming Des Moines Meeting, a gathering inspired by Communion and Liberation that invites people into deeper encounters with beauty, meaningful conversation, faith, work, and culture. He shares how the movement began with Servant of God Luigi Giussani and how the event hopes to create opportunities for people to encounter the living reality of Jesus Christ. Later, Ed Van Buskirk continues his series on the Ten Commandments with a discussion on the Second Commandment. He explains the sacredness of God’s name, the seriousness of blasphemy and perjury, and how honoring God’s name strengthens our relationship with Him and deepens our faith.
