    Feb 18 2025

  • E187: Debunking The Myths About Opus Dei w/Fr Luke Mata
    Feb 7 2025

    In this episode, Lila sits down with Fr. Luke Mata to explore the spiritual principles of Opus Dei, which literally translates to "The Work." Unlike many religious groups which encourage people to leave society in order to become sanctified, Opus Dei Founder St. Josemaria Escriva taught that one can become holy through the business of everyday life, not in spite of it.

    Fr. Luke also shares how his deep faith—and his mother’s example of holiness in the midst of suffering—shaped his spiritual journey, guiding him to a vocation in the priesthood where he would ultimately serve as Vicar of Opus Dei for the West.

    Fr. Luke has a PhD in Moral Philosophy and served in two papal synods. He also is a former Vicar of Opus Dei for the West. Don’t miss this inspiring conversation about vocation, leadership, and living out your faith in the modern world.

  • E186: A Field Guide to Faith, Finances, and Family w/Paul J Kim
    Feb 4 2025

    Society often tells us that having a big family is a financial burden—but is that really true? Today on the podcast, I’m joined by Paul J. Kim, a renowned speaker, comedian, and ministry leader, who debunks this myth. We dive into the practical and spiritual aspects of family finances, emphasizing radical trust in God's providence, hard work, and an inflation-proof investment strategy. Paul also shares his powerful journey of faith—from a partying lifestyle to a deeper conversion —along with his love story, a romance that bridged the divide between Catholicism and Protestantism. Plus, we explore his family’s rich history, including his father’s unlikely conversion to Catholicism in Korea. With Paul’s signature joy and humor, this conversation is both inspiring and entertaining. Don’t miss it!

  • E185: She Forgave Her Family's Murderers w/Immaculee Ilibagiza
    Jan 31 2025

    Today, I have the privilege of speaking with Immaculée Ilibagiza, an extraordinary witness to faith and resilience. She survived the 1994 Rwandan Genocide by hiding in a tiny bathroom for three months with seven other women. When she emerged, she faced the devastating loss of her family and friends, who had all been murdered. Immaculée shares her incredible journey of faith, hope, and forgiveness, even as she came face to face with those responsible for her family's deaths. Her story is both heartbreaking and inspiring, and I’m deeply honored to have this conversation with her. I hope it moves you as much as it did me.
