The Catholic Morning Show - 11/06/2025
Today on The Catholic Morning Show, Deacon Randy Kiel helps us explore the upcoming Sunday Gospel and challenges the way we often project our own wounds onto God. Fr. Matthew Luft joins us to discuss why the Church dedicates November to praying for the dead and how remembrance deepens our hope. Finally, Ed Van Buskirk shares the mission of “If You Love Me,” an apostolate calling families and parishes to rediscover the commandments as a path to love. A rich morning of wisdom, clarity, and renewal.

Fr. Matthew Luft continues the conversation by unpacking the Church’s focus on the Holy Souls during November. He explains why praying for the dead is an act of profound love, how it forms us, and how remembrance draws us deeper into the mystery of God’s mercy.
Ed Van Buskirk closes the show with a powerful conversation about the mission of If You Love Me. Ed reflects on how the Commandments are not rules to restrict us but invitations into authentic love, healing, and restored family life.
