Family of Faith: Saints Who Guide Us Home

Saints in the Making, our monthly saint segment here on FaithWorks.   We'll dive into the lives of saints who inspire us to live with purpose, faith, and love. Each month, we’ll highlight saints whose feast days fall within the month, exploring their incredible stories, virtues, and the lessons they offer for our own lives. 

This month, we’re turning our attention to three powerful witnesses in the life of the Church — St. Ambrose, St. John of the Cross, and the celebration of the Holy Family — all of whom we honor in December. From the bold preaching and steady leadership of St. Ambrose, to the mystical depth and profound spiritual insight of St. John of the Cross, and the radiant witness of love within the Feast of the Holy Family, each of these celebrations reveals a distinct facet of what it means to live a life rooted in Christ. They show us that holiness is born in courage, forged in prayer, and lived out in the ordinary rhythms of family and community.

Rob is a local Catholic author and speaker who has a passion for spreading the joy of the Catholic faith through teaching and is a lifelong student of the saints. Together, we’ll unpack their inspiring legacies and offer practical ways to bring the spirit of these saints into your home and heart.

Faith and the Fight: Keeping Your Soul in the Battle

For this interview, I’m joined by author and speaker Emily Stimpson Chapman to talk about her recent essay, “On Trad Wives, Keyboard Warriors, and Saving the World While Losing Your Soul.”

In this powerful piece, Emily explores how even our best intentions—defending truth, promoting virtue, living out our faith—can go astray when they’re driven more by pride or opposition than by love for Christ.

We discuss what it means to live from love instead of reaction, how to stay centered in Jesus amid online noise, and how to keep our faith grounded in humility and mercy.

Faith and the Science of Wonder: God's Fingerprints in Creation

We explore “God’s Fingerprints”—scientific signs of the supernatural found in well-studied Christian miracles. Guest Fr. Robert Spitzer, a Jesuit priest and physicist, explains how science and faith align, showing that belief in God is both reasonable and real.

From blood-type evidence to quantum theory, relics to the Resurrection, this conversation offers a fresh look at how the divine shows up in the modern world.

Roots and Renewal: Faith Alive in Quebec

My guest is a longtime friend, Barry O'Connell, from Quebec, Canada — a man whose journey of faith led him back to the Church after the tragic loss of his younger sister.

He’s a teacher, a devoted Catholic, and the author of a new book for teens called Jesse — a story of hope, faith, and redemption with a surprising twist.

We’ll talk about his upbringing in Quebec, his return to faith, and what inspired him to write Jesse for today’s young readers.

Faith in Every Life: Responding to Prenatal Diagnosis with Truth and Love

The last time Dr. McCaffrey was on, we had the privilege of hearing from some incredible warrior moms—Hannah, Nicole, and Patsy—women I like to call street fighters for life. Together, we shared the powerful stories of families who, when faced with life-limiting diagnoses for their unborn children, chose not despair, but radical hope.

Their journeys were not defined by fear or avoidance, but by a courageous love—a love that embraces life, no matter how short or fragile it may be. Dr. McCaffrey also shared his own powerful journey and his passion for speaking truth into the often-misunderstood world of prenatal diagnosis.

Since then, Dr. McCaffrey delivered a compelling presentation at Our Lady of Lourdes that dove even deeper into the ethical, medical, and spiritual challenges in this space.
