The Catholic Morning Show - 02/19/2026
Today on the Catholic Morning Show, we prepare for the upcoming Sunday Mass readings with Deacon Randy Kiel, explore how canon law shapes the Church’s liturgical year with Adam Storey, and talk with author Sylvia Dorham about her new children’s book The Monks Stand Guard and teaching families to guard their thoughts and grow in holiness. Insightful Scripture reflection, Lenten wisdom, and practical spiritual encouragement for the whole family.

Show Notes
• Deacon Randy Kiel helps listeners unpack the Genesis creation account, original sin, and the promise of salvation as we begin our Lenten journey toward the Cross and Resurrection.
• Adam Storey, canon lawyer for the Diocese of Des Moines, explains how the Church’s liturgical year is actually part of canon law — and how its rhythms orient our lives toward Christ and the mysteries of salvation.
• Author Sylvia Dorham joins us to discuss her new children’s book The Monks Stand Guard, published by TAN Books. She shares how monastic spirituality can help children (and adults!) learn to guard their thoughts, focus on what is good, and grow closer to God.
Listen weekday mornings at 7am CT on Iowa Catholic Radio.
