Talkin ministry and keeping it real! (Feat. Fr. Stephen Pullis)

Culture is always changing.  Therefore, our ministry needs to always change and be adaptable to the current audiences and situations.  And yet something about the message and the ministry always remains the same.  In this episode Mary Wilkerson and Mike Chamberland welcome special guest Fr. Stephan Pullis (Director of Evangelization and Missionary Discipleship) to discuss the ever changing world of ministry.

Catholics and "The Fuzz" (feat. Brian Buckley)

In this episode Mary Wilkerson and Mike Chamberland welcome Brian Buckley to share his experience of: living his life as a Catholic Seminarian, Family Man and Father of 8 children, and being a Catholic Police officer during these crazy times.

What's the deal with Beauty?

In this episode of Certifiably Catholic Mary and Mike welcome Fr. Craig Giera, Vocations Director for the Archdiocese of Detroit!  Since Fr. Craig is not only the vocations director but also a professional artist we discuss priestly vocations but also beauty as a transcendental and means of drawing close to God.  We are all old friends and had a blast recording this episode.  We hope you enjoy it.  Fr. Craig also has his own podcast which can be found at:https://detroitpriestlyvocations.com/men-of-the-hearts-podcast-episode-1/  

If I Could Turn Back Time

In this episode Mary Wilkerson and Mike Chamberland listen to clips from Episode #40 - "Its he End of the World as we Know It" which aired just before the covid shutdowns happened. We take a moment to review the entire pandemic year and process what we have learned but personally, culturally and spiritually.
