This week on Be Not Afraid, Fr. Fabian and Fr. Bruce Riebe open the show by noting that September 1st marks the start of the new liturgical year in the Byzantine Catholic tradition, a good reminder of the richness within the universal Church's many rites. The main conversation centers on fraternal correction, prompted by both the upcoming memorial of Saint Teresa of Calcutta and Sunday's Gospel reading, Matthew 18:15-20, in which Jesus instructs his disciples on how to address a brother who sins: privately first, then with witnesses, then before the Church. The hosts trace fraternal correction through the example of John the Baptist, who confronted Herod's immorality and paid with his life, and through Mother Teresa, who confronted world leaders and built bridges between believers and non-believers while never losing her charity and humility. Fr. Bruce shares a personal story of a friend whose attempt at fraternal correction with his adult daughter, over the baptism of her son, went painfully wrong, illustrating how correction offered without a shared foundation of faith can backfire. Fr. Fabian returns throughout to the theme that correction without humility, charity, or love is not true correction, and that reconciliation itself is an act of fraternal charity rooted in seeing the face of Christ in the other person. The episode closes with a reflection on Mother Teresa's own words to "do small things with great love" and a challenge to listeners to find the "Calcuttas" in their own lives: family, coworkers, and community members in need of compassion and presence.

On this episode of Be Not Afraid, Fr. Bruce Riebe walks through the biography of St. Augustine, born in Thagaste, North Africa, to a pagan father and his devout mother, St. Monica. From his early years of moral struggle and involvement with the Manichaean sect to his conversion under St. Ambrose in Milan, Augustine's story becomes a powerful reminder that sainthood is born out of frail, sinful human beginnings, not despite them. Fr. Bruce and the host also highlight St. Monica's decades of prayer and perseverance as a model for parents who feel discouraged by a child's spiritual struggles. The second half of the episode shifts to this Saturday's memorial of the Passion of St. John the Baptist, exploring why his martyrdom is commemorated alongside his birth, a distinction shared only with Jesus and Mary. Fr. Bruce details the Byzantine tradition of the three separate "findings" of St. John the Baptist's head, from the fourth-century discovery on the Mount of Olives to its final transfer to Constantinople around the year 850, and explains the custom of avoiding food served on a platter on this feast day.

This week on Be Not Afraid, Fr. Fabian and Fr. Bruce Riebe reflect on the upcoming Memorial of the Queenship of the Blessed Virgin Mary (August 22), tracing its origins to Pope Pius XII's 1954 encyclical and its beautiful connection to Mary's Assumption. Fr. Bruce offers a Byzantine Catholic perspective, noting how the Eastern Church honors Mary as Queen of Heaven within the Octave of the Dormition of the Theotokos, even without a distinct feast day. The hosts also share a touching reflection on Marian crowning traditions across Hispanic and Holy Family school customs. Turning to Sunday's readings, the hosts dive into Romans 11:33-36 and St. Paul's meditation on the depth of God's wisdom, drawing a beautiful connection to Mary's total surrender to God's will. In the Gospel from Matthew 16:13-20, Jesus asks the apostles "Who do you say that I am?" — prompting Peter's declaration of faith and the founding of the Church upon him as the Rock. Fr. Bruce also shares a striking pastoral observation from 41 years of priesthood: a growing number of young men in their 20s and 30s are being drawn to Eastern Christian spirituality, and how the Eastern Catholic Church offers them that same ancient liturgical richness while remaining in full communion with Rome.

On this Feast of St. Lawrence, deacon and martyr, Fr. Fabian and Fr. Bruce Riebe open with a look at how men are formed for the priesthood in the Byzantine Catholic Church, from tonsure and the subdiaconate through ordination to the transitional diaconate. Fr. Bruce shares the history behind married Eastern Catholic clergy in North America, including the 1920s shift toward celibate-only ordinations under Bishop Takach and Pope Francis' 2014 decision restoring the ancient practice of ordaining married men to the priesthood. Fr. Bruce also reflects on his own path to ordination, first to the diaconate and then to the priesthood in August 1985. The hosts then turn to the Solemnity of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary on August 15 — a holy day of obligation — walking through Pope Pius XII's 1950 dogmatic definition and what it means for the faithful. Fr. Bruce explains the Byzantine Catholic parallel, the Dormition of the Theotokos, including the tradition of the Apostle Thomas finding Mary's tomb filled with flowers rather than her body, and the custom of blessing flowers on the feast. The episode closes with a reflection on Matthew 15:21-28, the Canaanite woman who pleads with Jesus to heal her daughter. Fr. Fabian and Fr. Bruce discuss her bold persistence in faith, what Jesus' initial silence and the "bread for the dogs" saying meant in context, and what her example teaches listeners about trusting God's will even when He seems slow to answer.

This week on Be Not Afraid, Fr. Fabian and Fr. Bruce Riebe open with the Feast of the Prophet Elijah (July 20), a simple holy day on the Byzantine Catholic calendar. They discuss Elijah's life in ninth-century BC Israel, his confrontation with the prophets of Baal on Mount Carmel, his encounter with God in "a still, small voice," and his fiery ascension into heaven — the origin of the Byzantine tradition of blessing cars, trucks, motorcycles, and even bicycles on his feast day. The hosts then turn to St. Mary Magdalene, whose feast falls on July 22. Fr. Bruce shares scholarship clarifying that Mary Magdalene was not a prostitute, addressing the long-standing conflation of her identity with the sinful woman of Luke 7 and Mary of Bethany. They reflect on her title as "Apostle to the Apostles," given by St. Thomas Aquinas, and her faithful presence at the crucifixion and the empty tomb, where she was first to proclaim the Resurrection. Closing out the show, Fr. Fabian and Fr. Bruce preview the Gospel for the 17th Sunday in Ordinary Time (Matthew 13:44-52), reflecting on the parables of the treasure buried in a field, the pearl of great price, and the net cast into the sea. They discuss what it means to treasure the Kingdom of God above wealth, pleasure, and power, and invite listeners to place Christ at the center of their hearts. Learn more at IowaCatholicRadio.com.

This week on Be Not Afraid, Fr. Fabian and Fr. Bruce Riebe open with five key facts about Saint Bonaventure, the "Second Founder of the Franciscans," whose memorial falls on July 15. Known for continuing to wash dishes even after being named a cardinal, Bonaventure's motto — "do common things well and be constantly faithful to small matters" — anchors a discussion on humility and holiness in ordinary life. Fr. Bruce shares reflections from his July 4th homily at Our Lady Immaculate Heart Parish in Ankeny, connecting America's 250th anniversary to a call for the nation to be "godly again" and grounded in faith, hope, and charity. Fr. Fabian then brings a Byzantine Catholic perspective, explaining the Eastern Church's commemoration (the Sunday falling between July 13-19) of the Holy Fathers of the first six Ecumenical Councils — Nicaea, Constantinople I, Ephesus, Chalcedon, Constantinople II, and Constantinople III — and how these councils shaped the Nicene Creed and defended core truths about Christ's divinity and humanity. The episode closes with the Sunday Gospel (Matthew 13:24-43), the parable of the wheat and the weeds, as the hosts discuss God's patience, the possibility of conversion, and letting God's Word take root in the heart.

This episode of Be Not Afraid on Iowa Catholic Radio brings together two major occasions: the Solemnity of Saints Peter and Paul and the 14th Sunday in Ordinary Time, airing on the eve of America's 250th Independence Day. Fr. Fabian and Fr. Bruce Riebe open with the feast of Sts. Peter and Paul — a holy day of obligation in the Byzantine Catholic Church and a solemnity in the Latin Church worldwide. They discuss Peter as the rock and vicar of Christ, his martyrdom in Rome as the foundation of the papacy, and Paul's dramatic Damascus Road conversion that made him one of the most fervent evangelists in Church history. The hosts note that in the Byzantine tradition, parishes are named Saints Peter and Paul together — honoring both pillars as inseparable. The conversation connects the feast to July 4th and America's 250th anniversary, including the USCCB's recent consecration of the United States to the Sacred Heart of Jesus at their conference in Orlando, Florida. Drawing on Pope Pius's encyclical on Sacred Heart devotion and Pope Francis's Dilexit Nos, the hosts reflect on what true independence means: not autonomy from God, but freedom from sin through Christ's death and resurrection. The Gospel of Matthew 11:25–30 anchors the final segment — Christ's invitation to the burdened and weary. Fr. Bruce reflects on the yoke as a symbol of balanced burden-bearing, offering pastoral encouragement to those carrying heavy crosses. Fr. Fabian warns against the pride that closes the heart to God's wisdom and mercy.

With the Feast of Saint John the Baptist just days away (June 24), Fr. Fabian and Fr. Bruce Riebe unpack the profound legacy of the Forerunner — his fasting, prayer, poverty, humility, and total obedience to God's call. The hosts connect John's ascetical witness to the ongoing Peter and Paul Fast observed in the Byzantine Catholic Church, making the case that fasting is not an ancient relic but a living spiritual practice for today. The conversation turns to Saint Cyril of Alexandria (feast day June 27), whose defense of Christ's unified person at the Council of Ephesus (431 AD) made possible the honorific title Theotokos — Birthgiver of God — for the Blessed Virgin Mary. Fr. Fabian and Fr. Bruce trace how that council shaped Eastern Rite traditions, from Byzantine to Coptic to Syriac, and how those traditions came to the United States. The Sunday Gospel (Matthew 10:37–42) anchors it all: whoever does not take up his cross and follow Christ is not worthy of him. The hosts call listeners to be willing cross-bearers — inspired by John the Baptist, confirmed by the sacrifice of Christ, and sustained by the Holy Spirit.

This Father's Day episode of Be Not Afraid on Iowa Catholic Radio opens a fascinating window into the married priesthood of the Byzantine Catholic Church. Fr. Bruce and Fr. Fabian discuss the practical realities these priests navigate — from finances and child-rearing to spiritual discipline and, in rare cases, divorce. Fr. Bruce shares his personal discernment between marriage and celibacy, offering an honest reflection on why he felt called to give himself fully to priestly life. The hosts also unpack the 12th Sunday in Ordinary Time Gospel (Matthew 10:26–33), in which Jesus urges his disciples to fear no one but God. Fr. Bruce recalls his Covid-era mantra — "faith driven, Eucharistic centered, and not fear based" — and explains how that spirit gave rise to the name Be Not Afraid. The episode closes with a meditation on St. Joseph as the perfect model for fathers, stepfathers included, and a blessing for all dads on their special day.
