Welcome to the inaugural edition of The Will Within - The Chosen Edition. Due to the exciting feedback around the successful, original The Will Within podcast, we have The Will Within - The Chosen Edition. Our stories will still include the same elements of hope, will, perseverance and inspiration and now include how The Chosen TV Series has made an impact in your own life!

 

Our inaugural edition features Ornella Fava of Rhode Island USA, and Anusha Jebahnasam of Australia. Ornella originally formed a FB page to support Jonathan Roumie and his acting and spiritual endeavors. This project now extends to Instagram platform as well. Ornella, Anusha and some other dedicated fans pray the Rosary and Divine Mercy Chaplet for the The Cast and crew of The Chosen (a practice started by Jonathan himself during the beginning of Corvid). Hear all about their page inception and plans for the future.

Questions Covered:

• 14:55 -What do you think about the science of artificial womb technology? Do you think it might have any relation to the end of abortion? 
• 19:43 - Ethically, how much as Catholics can we trust that scientists are doing the right thing? Is using stem cells for cancer treatment ethical? I’m asking as a parent that has a child dying from cancer. 
• 29:24 - I work as a clinical research coordinator with humans. Is it ok for me as a faithful Catholic to present contraceptive options for women going into a trial? 
• 37:30 - Is insulin a necessity at the end of life? 
• 45:20 - My mother has recently been diagnosed with Alzheimer’s. She’s also on dialysis for kidney failure. How long, morally, should she continue dialysis as her dementia progresses? 
• 50:17 – I’m 75 y.o. my adult children have all left the faith and don’t care about me anymore. What do I do if I’m hospitalized and have no advocate?

• 10:04 - How would the church feel about a woman that was raped and must share custody with the rapist? Does that make it justified to kill the baby?
• 17:22 - I’m pro-life but can you explain why IVF is not pro-life? My wife was conceived that way and now that she’s becoming a doctor, I feel that will influence how she deals with IVF and contraception.
• 24:09 - I think it’s awful but I think women are going to have abortions whether we want them to or not and I want it done in a doctor’s office.
• 35:20 - I was pro-choice for a long time throughout my 20s and 30s. I then studied Buddhism and they talk in detail about how the soul enters at the time of the union of the sperm and egg. I am now going back to the beginning when I was baptized Catholic and comparing things to find my way
• 41:22 - I’m pro-life, for babies who survive late term abortions, aren’t they automatically American citizens?
• 46:52 - When I was younger, I went through two abortions and came to really regret them.
• 48:30 - I believe that there are times when pregnancies are dangerous for women.

We need to remind ourselves and reflect often on how our relationship is with others. God will help with the good, bad and ugly.

Sometimes we ask for God's help and when He gives it to us, we aren't exactly ready to take it or even contemplate that grace and gift. So, what do we do?

In this episode, Antony Barone Kolenc speaks with Hannah Blosser, the teen president of a national homeschool chapter of Students for Life, about helping teens be more active in promoting a culture of life, and we review the pro-life movie, Unplanned.

For those who’ve never experienced it, who’ve maybe only heard that the Catholic church is strict or full of rules or elitist, why would someone WANT to become Catholic? And going a step further, why is it that the Catholic church is seen as having this overarching authority, a predominant presence, if it’s not respected as an institution?
Today Father Jonathan Sawicki joins us to unpack these notions, diving deep into the history and tradition of the Catholic Church.

Sometimes we should change up what is going on in our lives so that we can be better on our journey in mind, body, soul! 

This week, Gary looks at the Mass Readings for the 2nd Sunday in Ordinary Time. Join him as he reflects on the importance of doing God's will. 

Episode #97: In this podcast episode I explain how we can be sure that God the Father never gives up trying to turn unbelievers to Jesus their Savior. He never abandons anyone until the point of death when they make their final choice.

 

We can see this in Hebrews 4:12-16 (which tells us about the sword of the Spirit), in Job 36:5,8-12 (which reassures us, “He makes them listen to correction and commands them to repent of their evil,” and from Saint Alphonsus de Liguori (who tells us about the “veil” of deception getting lifted).

 

Who are you praying for because you’re worried about their salvation? Imagine that person with nothing on their mind, nothing in their vision, nothing in their field of vision but the Holy Spirit and the truth and Jesus Christ presenting it to them, wielding the Spirit as a sword (a two-edged sword), would that person want to spend eternity with Jesus?

 

That’s what the Holy Spirit does. That’s what the sword of the Spirit does….
