Mark Brumley: Rediscovering the Wisdom and Writings of Fulton J. Sheen

Tue, 25 Aug 2026 13:37:20 +0000

On Driving Home the Faith, Dr. Ken Craycraft welcomes Mark Brumley, president and CEO of Ignatius Press, for a look at the enduring wisdom of Venerable Fulton J. Sheen. With renewed interest surrounding Sheen and his cause for beatification, Brumley highlights several Ignatius Press titles by and about the beloved Catholic bishop, including The Power of Love, Remade for Happiness, and Go to Heaven.

The conversation also explores why Sheen should not be dismissed as merely a popular television preacher. Behind his remarkable ability to communicate the faith was a first-rate theologian and philosopher whose scholarship could be presented in a way ordinary Catholics could understand and appreciate.

Marcus Peter on Healing, Addiction, and the Grace to Become “Not Finished Yet”

Tue, 25 Aug 2026 13:27:56 +0000

In this powerful continuation of their conversation, Ken Craycraft and Marcus Peter turn to the themes of healing and addiction in Peter’s book Not Finished Yet: How God Keeps His Promise to Complete His Work in You. Drawing from his own experience with alcoholism, Dr. Peter speaks candidly about the struggle with addiction, the importance of recognizing our need for help, and the role of God’s grace in the healing process.

The conversation also explores why Christian healing encompasses the whole person—body, mind, emotions, and spirit—and why trusting God does not always mean receiving the physical healing we ask for. Ultimately, Dr. Peter points to the deeper healing God desires: the healing that leads us toward eternal life.

On Driving Home the Faith, Dr. Ken Craycraft welcomes Dr. Marcus Peter, president of Ave Maria Radio and author of the upcoming book Not Finished Yet.

The conversation also explores Dr. Peter’s own journey from atheism to Christianity and ultimately Catholicism, and why approaching Christianity with fresh eyes can help us rediscover the extraordinary truth of the Gospel.

The Dignity of Work: Dr. Jacob Imam on Faith, Labor, and Rebuilding Communities

Tue, 25 Aug 2026 13:07:00 +0000

In this continuation of his conversation with Ken Craycraft on Driving Home the Faith, Dr. Jacob Imam, president of the College of St. Joseph the Worker, explores the Catholic understanding of the dignity and purpose of work.

The conversation also turns to the College's mission in downtown Steubenville, where students and faculty are helping restore neglected buildings and contribute to the renewal of the surrounding community. For Dr. Imam, work is not simply about earning a living—it is about serving others, building something tangible, and participating in the renewal of the world God has entrusted to us.

From High School PA Announcer to the Voice of Xavier Basketball: Barrett Cohen’s Journey

Mon, 24 Aug 2026 13:27:47 +0000

In this week’s Sports Spotlight, Paul Lachmann talks with Barrett Cohen, the new public-address announcer for Xavier University basketball. Barrett shares what it means to step into the shoes of legendary Xavier PA announcer Herb Bauer, whose voice became part of the tradition of Musketeer basketball for decades.

Cohen also reflects on his journey from announcing games as a grade-school student at St. James White Oak to working in high school sports, broadcasting, marketing, and sports information. He recounts his experience as one of the final four candidates for the San Diego Padres’ PA announcer position and how that opportunity gave him the confidence to pursue announcing on a larger stage.

The conversation also offers advice for young aspiring PA announcers: jump in, volunteer, don't be afraid of the microphone, and look for opportunities to make someone else's day better. Barrett credits his faith, God's grace, and the mentors who have helped him along the way as he begins this exciting new chapter with the Musketeers.

Defining Sex in the Law: What the Supreme Court’s Recent Rulings Mean for Title IX and Title VII

Mon, 24 Aug 2026 13:23:05 +0000

What does the law mean by the word “sex”? On Driving Home the Faith, Ken Craycraft speaks with Cincinnati attorney Philip Williamson of Taft Law about the Supreme Court’s recent decisions in B.P.J. v. West Virginia and Hecox, and how those rulings interact with the Court’s controversial 2020 decision in Bostock v. Clayton County.

They discuss the distinction between Title IX, which governs sex discrimination in education, and Title VII, which addresses employment discrimination, and why the Court has treated the meaning of “sex” differently under the two laws. They also explore whether future cases could continue to narrow the practical impact of Bostock, the importance of consistency in interpreting the law, and the role of truth and courage when courts are confronted with questions about biological sex and gender identity.

Dating in the Swipe Era: Finding Love, Commitment, and a Path to Marriage

Mon, 24 Aug 2026 13:20:26 +0000

Why is dating so difficult for young people today? On Driving Home the Faith, Ken Craycraft speaks with Emily Dinneny, social media apologist for Catholic Answers and spokesperson for the new book YouCat Love Forever from Ignatius Press. They discuss why modern dating can feel like an endless series of choices, how dating has become disconnected from its purpose, and the dangers of treating potential spouses like products that can simply be “swiped” away.

Emily also explores why many young adults are delaying marriage, the impact of social media and unrealistic expectations about romance, and the importance of patience, discernment, commitment, and recognizing that marriage is not simply about finding the perfect person—it is also about allowing God to sanctify us through the vocation of marriage.

Why the Catholic Church Rejects Surrogacy: The Dignity of Marriage and Human Life

Mon, 24 Aug 2026 13:14:16 +0000

Infertility can be a profound and painful cross, and couples who experience it deserve compassion, support, and accompaniment. But why does the Catholic Church so strongly reject surrogacy as a solution to infertility? On Driving Home the Faith, Ken Craycraft examines the Church’s teaching and explains the serious moral concerns surrounding surrogacy, including separating procreation from the marital act, the connection to IVF, the destruction or selection of embryos, the commercialization of pregnancy, and the danger of treating children as commodities. Ken also emphasizes an essential truth: every child, regardless of the circumstances of conception or birth, possesses inherent dignity as a person made in the image and likeness of God.

Reading St. Paul in a Time of Synodality: Rediscovering Conversion, Truth, and Joy

Mon, 24 Aug 2026 13:08:48 +0000

Carl Olson, editor of Catholic World Report, joins Driving Home the Faith to discuss his essay “Reading St. Paul in a Time of Synodality.” Olson examines the Church’s ongoing conversation about synodality through the lens of St. Paul, emphasizing the need to recover the theological depth sometimes missing from contemporary discussions. The conversation explores personal conversion from sin, our heavenly identity and ultimate destiny, the inseparable relationship between theology and pastoral practice, and the Christian call to joy. Rather than allowing synodality to become merely a process of meetings and discussion, Olson argues that the Church must remain rooted in the Gospel and the transforming reality of life in Christ.

Morrison explains how medical coding works, why diagnostic and billing codes matter, and how hospitals and clinics allegedly used codes for conditions such as precocious puberty to obtain insurance and Medicaid reimbursement for treatments that were actually being provided for gender dysphoria. The conversation also examines the potential legal consequences of fraudulent coding, including Medicare and Medicaid fraud investigations, financial penalties, loss of federal funding, and possible professional discipline.

Jennifer Roback Morse on Human Dignity, Equality, and the Catholic Understanding of the Person

Fri, 21 Aug 2026 13:54:27 +0000

Dr. Jennifer Roback Morse returns to Driving Home the Faith to continue a wide-ranging conversation with Ken Craycraft about the meaning of human dignity.

Building on their discussion of women’s sports and the modern pursuit of equality, Ken and Dr. Morse examine what happens when equality is confused with equivalence—the idea that people must be identical in abilities, talents, characteristics, or outcomes in order to possess equal dignity.

They explore the Catholic understanding of dignity as something inherent in every human person because each person is created in the image and likeness of God. From the unborn child to the elderly, the disabled, the sick, and everyone in between, human dignity does not depend on accomplishments, abilities, social status, or external characteristics.

The conversation also considers how attempts to manufacture equality can sometimes create new forms of inequality and exclusion, and why the Catholic understanding of human dignity provides a much stronger foundation for human equality than ideological definitions of equivalence.

A thoughtful conversation about dignity, equality, human differences, and what it means to recognize the God-given worth of every person.

Jennifer Roback Morse on Women’s Sports, Title IX, and the Sexual State

Fri, 21 Aug 2026 13:48:48 +0000

Dr. Jennifer Roback Morse, founder of the Ruth Institute, joins Ken Craycraft on Driving Home the Faith to discuss his recent Catholic World Report column examining the controversy surrounding women’s sports and the WNBA.

Ken and Dr. Morse explore the debate over biological sex, the purpose of women’s athletics, and the growing influence of transgender ideology on sports and public policy. They also take a closer look at Title IX, its original purpose of expanding opportunities for women in athletics, and how its interpretation has changed over the decades.

The conversation also connects these issues to Dr. Morse’s latest book, The Sexual State: How Elite Ideologies Are Destroying Our Lives, and the broader question of how ideology, law, and cultural power are reshaping our understanding of men, women, and the family.

Back Together: Inviting Catholics Back to the Practice of Their Faith

Fri, 21 Aug 2026 13:39:13 +0000

Sean Ater, Director of the Center for the New Evangelization for the Archdiocese of Cincinnati, joins Driving Home the Faith to introduce Back Together, a new initiative designed to help parishes reach out to Catholics who have drifted away from regular participation in the life of the Church.

Sean explains how the initiative focuses especially on people who haven't rejected the faith but have simply been caught up in the inertia of everyday life—a new job, a move, changing family circumstances, or simply being too busy. Back Together encourages Catholics to use natural seasons of transition, including back-to-school, Christmas, and Easter, as opportunities to extend a warm and personal invitation back to Mass.

The conversation also explores the importance of hospitality, friendship, prayer, and personal accompaniment in evangelization. Sean outlines the four movements of Back Together Sunday: pray, care, invite, and accompany.

Parishes can access the free, downloadable Back Together resources and customize them for their own communities through the Archdiocese of Cincinnati's Center for the New Evangelization.

Theology of the Body and the Healing of the Whole Person with Dr. Emily Dowdell

Fri, 21 Aug 2026 13:25:49 +0000

What does the Theology of the Body have to do with psychology? On Driving Home the Faith, Dr. Emily Dowdell of Ruah Woods Psychological Services explains how St. John Paul II’s teaching on the body-soul unity and the dignity of the human person provides a foundation for understanding psychological health and healing. She and Dr. Ken Craycraft discuss how modern culture’s confusion about human identity can contribute to isolation and fragmentation—and how bringing the body, mind, emotions, relationships, and spiritual life back into harmony can help us become more fully the people God created us to be.

They also explore the Incarnation, Christ as the model of authentic humanity, and how our bodies can reveal what is happening within us—even when our words say something different.

Chapp and Craycraft explore how secularization, suburbanization, declining Mass attendance, fewer Catholic families, and the loss of neighborhood parish life have reshaped Catholic communities—and what rebuilding Catholic community might look like today.

Sending children off to college and learning to trust what you've taught them
Helping children adjust when they are uprooted and transferred to a new school
Giving children time and space to make new friends
Dealing with the sadness that can come when summer and familiar routines end
Helping children—and ourselves—live in the present rather than constantly looking backward or forward
Slowing down amid social media, information overload, and the pressure for instant gratification

A conversation about parenting, faith, change, and learning to entrust our children—and each new season of life—to God, one day at a time.

Truth, Beauty, and Goodness: Understanding the Three Transcendentals

Wed, 19 Aug 2026 16:22:48 +0000

What do Catholics mean when they speak of truth, beauty, and goodness as the three transcendentals? On Driving Home the Faith, Dr. Ken Craycraft explores these foundational concepts of Catholic philosophy and theology and explains why they matter in a culture that increasingly questions or redefines them.

The discussion begins with transcendence—the uniquely human capacity to look beyond ourselves and seek what is greater than us, ultimately leading us toward God. From there, Dr. Craycraft explains how truth, beauty, and goodness each provide a way of encountering reality and, ultimately, knowing the Creator.

Truth corresponds to objective reality; it is discovered and received, not created according to our personal preferences.
Beauty points beyond personal taste and reflects something objectively real, ultimately revealing the beauty of God's creation.
Goodness belongs to being itself because all that God creates is good, while evil is understood as a privation or corruption of the good.

Drawing on St. Thomas Aquinas, St. Augustine, and Boethius, this reflection offers a concise introduction to why truth, beauty, and goodness are essential to the Catholic understanding of reality—and how all three ultimately point us toward God, the source of everything that is true, beautiful, and good.

Blessed Stanley Rother: The Shepherd Who Refused to Run

Wed, 19 Aug 2026 16:18:22 +0000

Dr. Ken Craycraft welcomes Maria Ruiz Scaperlanda, award-winning writer, reporter, retreat facilitator, and promoter of the cause for canonization of Blessed Stanley Rother, the Oklahoma priest who gave his life serving his people in Guatemala.

Maria shares the remarkable story of Father Rother—from his humble beginnings on an Oklahoma farm and struggles in the seminary to his 13 years as a missionary in Guatemala, where he learned Spanish and the indigenous Tz'utujil language. As Guatemala's civil war intensified, Father Rother was placed on a death list. He had the opportunity to leave, but chose to return to his parish, famously declaring that “the shepherd cannot run at the first sign of danger.”

Father Rother was murdered in 1981 and became the first U.S.-born priest officially recognized as a martyr by the Catholic Church. Maria discusses his heroic virtue, his cause for canonization, her biography The Shepherd Who Didn't Run, and why Blessed Stanley Rother offers such a powerful example of faithful, courageous priesthood for Catholics today.

They also discuss the new documentary American Martyr: The Stanley Rother Story, narrated by Martin Sheen and coming to theaters for a limited engagement on August 25–26 in English and August 27 in Spanish.

Are Hospitals Using Medical Codes to Hide Gender Medicine Insurance Fraud?

Wed, 19 Aug 2026 16:13:46 +0000

Dr. Ken Craycraft welcomes Dr. Joseph Zalot, Director of Education at the National Catholic Bioethics Center, to discuss the recent HHS report Wolves in White Coats: How Doctors and Hospitals Pushed and Profited from the Fraud of Gender Medicine.

The report alleges that hospitals and medical providers used fraudulent or misleading diagnostic codes to obtain insurance and Medicare reimbursement for procedures and treatments related to so-called gender medicine. Dr. Zalot explains how medical procedure codes and diagnostic codes work, why the distinction matters, and how allegedly manipulating those codes could constitute medical fraud.

They also discuss the legitimate medical uses of treatments such as puberty blockers and hormone therapies, the misuse of those interventions in gender medicine, and the financial pressures facing children's hospitals. Dr. Zalot also explains why diagnoses such as precocious puberty and endocrine disorders raise serious questions when they are used to justify procedures for patients who do not actually have those conditions.

A conversation about medical ethics, insurance fraud, the financial incentives within healthcare, and the responsibility of doctors and hospitals to put the good of the patient ahead of the bottom line.

“Wolves in White Coats”: The Ethics and Economics of Gender Medicine

Wed, 19 Aug 2026 16:11:58 +0000

A recent HHS report, “Wolves in White Coats,” raises serious allegations about the use and billing of gender-related drugs and procedures involving minors. Dr. Joseph Zalot of the National Catholic Bioethics Center joins Driving Home the Faith to examine the issue from a medical and ethical perspective.

Dr. Zalot explains that medications such as puberty blockers and hormones can have legitimate medical uses, while also discussing why their use for so-called gender transition raises fundamentally different ethical questions. The conversation also explores off-label drug use, the pressure sometimes placed on parents, claims about suicide prevention, and the financial incentives surrounding pediatric healthcare.

The discussion asks an important question: What happens when medical technology is used to affirm an ideology rather than to treat an underlying medical condition?

Reviving the University: What Higher Education Has Lost—and How We Can Restore It

Wed, 19 Aug 2026 16:08:35 +0000

What happens when universities begin treating education primarily as a commodity and students primarily as customers? Dr. Santiago Schnell, Provost of Dartmouth College, joins Driving Home the Faith to discuss the challenges facing American higher education, including the elimination of humanities programs, declining academic standards, and the growing emphasis on career-focused degrees and return on investment.

Dr. Schnell argues that a university should do more than prepare students for their first job—it should educate them for life. He explains why the humanities and arts are essential to a healthy university and society, why losing theology means losing an important dimension of reality, and why standardized testing and stronger K–12 preparation still matter.

The conversation also explores what Catholic and Christian universities have contributed to higher education—and what is lost when universities abandon their religious foundations.

What’s Happening to American Universities? The Crisis of Higher Education and the Loss of Purpose

Wed, 19 Aug 2026 16:06:08 +0000

Why are colleges and universities eliminating academic programs, closing honors programs, and, in some cases, even abandoning theology departments? Dr. Ken Craycraft speaks with Dr. Santiago Schnell, Provost of Dartmouth College, about the changing landscape of American higher education. They explore the differences between public, private, and Catholic universities, what schools have lost by abandoning their Christian foundations, and how the loss of a clear telos—or purpose— has contributed to treating education more like a commodity than a formation of the whole person.

Julie Yost discusses her book, The Point of Viability: A Coming Alive Story.

Mon, 17 Aug 2026 16:45:30 +0000

🎙️ In Case You Missed It!

On Driving Home the Faith, Dr. Ken Craycraft welcomed author Julie Yost for a deeply moving conversation about her book, The Point of Viability: A Coming Alive Story, and her personal journey through infertility, pregnancy, loss, and the struggle to trust God in the midst of suffering.

Julie shares how God met her in some of the most painful and uncertain moments of her life and how suffering, prayer, and surrender ultimately deepened her faith. Her story is a powerful reminder that even when we don't understand God's plan, He is present, He is faithful, and He can bring hope and new life from our deepest struggles.
