Send us a text Episode 5: The End Game - Memento Mori and the Return of Glory For centuries, Catholic art reminded the faithful of eternity. Skulls carved into stone. Angels painted above the altar. Saints depicted holding palms of martyrdom. These weren’t aesthetic choices, they were spiritual weapons in a world at war with forgetfulness. In this final episode, we confront the uncomfortable truth: the modern world has tried to erase the sacred through ugliness, minimalism, and mockery. What ...

In this episode, Jay Parnell joins us to explore how Catholic art once glorified the Eucharist with awe-inspiring beauty, gilded altars, veiled tabernacles, monstrances like suns. And yet today, many Catholics walk into bare sanctuaries and leave with bare souls. How did we get here? We’...
Send us a text Episode 3: Saints, Symbols, and Sacred Places Sacred art is not decoration, it is doctrine in color, stone, glass, and gold. In this episode, we journey into the living theology of Catholic imagery: the radiant stories of saints, the crown of Marian devotion, and the architecture that shapes not only the mind, but the soul. Jay Parnell joins us to explore how sacred spaces and symbols are crafted to reflect invisible truths. Why does the Church elevate saints in visual form? Wh...

Jay Parnell joins us to expose how the rejection of sacred art and aesthetics in the modern Church wasn’t a stylistic shift, it was a strategic one. When beauty disappears, reverence follows.
