The Salty Catholic
by The Salty Catholic
“You are the salt of the earth. But if salt loses its taste, with what can it be seasoned? It is no longer good for anything but to be thrown out and trampled underfoot." -Matthew 5:13-I am salty not just because Jesus calls us to be the salt of the earth, but I’m also salty in the sense that I’m watching the culture shift towards a progressive ideology and it is becoming more anti-Christian by the day, and it has been slowly entering our Church and destroying our values. I’m also salty because I have been watching Catholics become lukewarm and tasteless in their faith and not standing up and defending against the secular culture. So I’m here to sprinkle in a little bit of flavor.Produced by the Eastern Catholic Re-evangelization Center (E.C.R.C.)https://www.ecrc.us/Follow on Instagramhttps://www.instagram.com/the.salty.catholic/

#31 - Not By Faith Alone
A majority of Protestants we come across believe in the doctrine of "Faith Alone", which claims that all a Christian needs to be justified is their faith and any work does not add or take away from them being saved. They will cite a few scripture passages support this claim. As Catholics we need…

#30 - Answering Jehovah's Witnesses
KNOCK KNOCK!! It's that time of year where you might get a knock on your door from a Jehovah's Witness and they are going to want to share some good news with you from the Bible. As Catholics our mission is to preach the gospel at all times. So instead of slamming the door shut on a Witness, we...

#28 - Suffering Is Not All Bad (with Jeff Kassab)
One of the toughest questions we ask ourselves is "why do I suffer?" or "what is the purpose of my suffering?" It is a difficult concept to ponder upon as Catholics, that a God who loves us so much permits us to suffer. In this episode, Jeff Kassab guest hosts as she shares a personal testimony…

#27 - Fast Food Christianity
We are in a culture where we are spoiled because we are used to getting everything fast. We want answers right away. We want results right away. We want our food right away. We have no time or no patience to wait for anything. And when we don’t get things to happen when we want and how we want it...
-
#26 - Fear The Lord, Not The World
Most of us today fear the world more than we fear the Lord. The Scripture says "Fear of the Lord is the beginning of Wisdom". But what does it mean to fear the Lord? Why should we be afraid of someone we are supposed to Love? In this episode I discuss what it means to fear the Lord and how…

#25 - Taking the Faith for Granted (with Delone Arabo)
In this episode, Delone Arabo discusses his past life as an atheist and his journey to the Lord. As a former atheist, he noticed that many Catholics are taking their faith for granted. How can someone who knew Jesus their entire life be so lukewarm with their faith, where as someone who converted...

#24 - The Salty Feminist (with Patrice Abona)
In this episode guest host Patrice Abona shares the truths and lies of the feminist movement and dives into the true identity and roles of women in society today. Book references: The Anti-Mary Exposed by: Carrie Gress...
-
#23 - Jesus Got Angry, And So Can You!
Catholics really need to stop being so soft with those who attacking the faith and causing people to pull away from Catholicism. We read in Scripture how Christ (righteously)became angry with people who were destroying the faith and even used some harsh language to get his point across. Yet we…

#22 - The Salty Father (With Pelar Esshaki)
Pelar Esshaki guest hosts the Salty Catholic and discusses his Saltiness towards husbands and fathers in today's society. As a father to 11 children (eleven....not a typo), Pelar discusses the importance of being a strong husband and father that is grounded in faith and a personal relationship…

#21 - Why Be Catholic?
Why be Catholic? A lot of Catholics don't really know how to answer this questions. When asked, the best they can come up with was "This is how I was raised". Being Catholic is not something cultural we inherit like a last name, rather it is the fullness of truth. In this episode I explore WHY...
-
#20 - Spiritual But Not Religious...LOL!
"Spiritual but not religious" has become a very popular in the current culture. Some people claim that they can have a spiritual life without the practice of a religion, but they end up making up their own private form of religion to practice along the way. In this episode, I explain the…

#19 - What is Love and Why You're Doing it Wrong
Pope Benedict XVI that “the term love has become one of the most frequently used and misused of words.” In this materialistic and self centered culture we live in the word "love" seemed to have lost its meaning. We have an obligation as Catholics to preach what love truly means. In this episode I...
-
#18 - Sacraments - You're Probably Doing It Wrong
The 7 Sacraments are probably the most fundamental parts of Catholicism, and much like most things regarding the faith Catholics found a way to screw them up. We treat sacraments the way we treat a child’s 1st birthday, or graduation day, just a thing that we go though life. We tend to not focus…

#17 - Preaching Through Memes
Who says you can't have fun and be funny when you preach the gospel? In this episode I make a case for why we as Catholics SHOULD include humor when preaching the gospel, most especially in the digital era that we are in where Memes have become one of the biggest ways many people communicate with...
-
#16 - Feelings Don't Dictate Your Faith
Our faith should not be based on how we feel about life. If we allow our feelings to guide our faith then we will eventually be faithless. Our emotions are always changing but the reality of God will never change, so why should we trust something that is always changing instead of something that...
-
#15 - Bible: You're Probably Reading It Wrong
The Bible is the most misquoted and misinterpreted book in the history of the world. Part of that is because many people, believers and non-believers, have a misguided understanding of what the Bible is. For the most part, people have difficulty with HOW to read the Bible. For Catholics, these...
-
#14 - Can Catholics Separate Religion From Politics?
Can you separate religion from politics? Is it possible to be a Catholic only in your private life but not in a public, social setting? In this episode I will discuss why Catholics should not surrender when told to "keep your religion out of politics" and why it is important for Catholics to…

#13 - Words in Sheep's Clothing
When you change language you change thought. Change thought and you fundamentally change the culture. Nobody knows this better than the ones who ascribe to the progressive ideology. Words have meaning, and when the meaning of these words are changed then we start to look at the world in a…

#12 - Prayer: You're Probably Doing It Wrong
There seems to be a lot of misconception of what prayer is from an outside perspective, and a misunderstanding from within Christianity. And even when prayer is understood, it seem as though many Christians are not being fruitful with their prayers. In this episode, I will explain what prayer is...
-
#11 - The Catholic Case In Favor of Abortion
Is there a case where abortion is permissible under catholic teaching? For this episode I took a deep dive in the historical and philosophical literature of the church to find the answer. I read many writings of the Church fathers, Popes, Bishops, and even studied the Bible closely to finally get...
-
#10 - What The Hell
Hell is a topic many people avoid. It's scary and ugly to think about the possibility that anyone, including ourselves, can end up there for eternity. However, that doesn't mean it doesn't exist. IT'S REAL! So why is it that so many Christians don't believe that it exists, or at most think that…

#9 - The Temptations of Jesus
After the baptism of Jesus, he was led by the spirit to be tempted by the devil. The devil tempted Jesus in 3 different ways in order to see if he was truly the Son of God. How does Jesus respond to the devil's temptations? How do they apply to us today? How can we fight back against these...
-
#8 - The Gospel According to Me
Modern Christianity has a lot of noise. If you really listen you will hear many false gospels being preached. There are many appeals to the self-centered, individualistic nature of human beings. It's all about ME and what I want from God, almost completely disregarding what God wants from ME. In...
-
#7 - Modern Day Sadducees
Who were the Sadducees? They aren't mentioned in Scripture much. In this episode I take a look at Mark 12:18-27 and discuss who the Sadducees were, what they believed in, and how Jesus responds to them. I will also discuss the similarities between the Sadducees and the modern, progressive…

#6 - Make Catholics Catholic Again
If I was arrested and charged with being a Catholic, would they have enough evidence to convict me? It’s sad to say but for most self-professed Catholics today the answer is most likely no. In this episode, I discuss the "Catholic In Name Only" group within the church, what role Catholicism plays...
-
#5 - Misunderstood Bible Verses
The Bible has been and always will be misinterpreted and misunderstood, even among Christians. This can cause much confusion and division among people. Some misinterpretations happen to be a lot more common than others. In fact, some can lead people away from the truth completely and be used to...
-
#4 - Why So Many Rules?
"Why are there so many rules in the church?" we may have heard people ask this question or we may even ourselves have thought about this question. Why is it that the Church has so many rules? Why can't we just worship God whichever way we feel like without being told how to do something? In this...
-
#3 - When Salt Loses Its Taste
In this episode I talk about Liberal Christianity and discuss why it's so empty, bland, and how it effects our community. No guest on this episode because I didn't want anyone else to take the heat for what I wanted to say.
-
#2 - Source of the Salt (with Jeff Kassab)
In this episode I sit down with my great friend Jeff Kassab as we discuss some ways and resources where we can learn more about the faith and give some tips on how to read scripture.
