Growing up, most of us read comic books and comic strips, but none of them are as good as these! Join Rose Trabbic as she talks to Philip Kosloski, founder and writer of Voyage Comics, and Michael LaVoy, chief commercial officer and artist, as they sit down to talk about the importance of comic books for young children.
Voyage Comics are not your average comic books; not only are they extremely engaging, but they also provide real heroes that your kids can look up to. The Catholic faith is present within these works without being overly contrived or preachy. Kids cannot put these comic books down! Rose even talks about catching her kids reading them late at night in bed. In this episode, Philip and Michael discuss the origins of Voyage comics, the intensive creative process, and upcoming projects. Ignatius Press is happy to partner with Voyage in promoting their comics through the Ignatius Press Book Fairs.

Pope Francis has just named Fr. Kapaun a venerable making this American hero and medal of honor winner one step closer to sainthood. Today we celebrate this great occasion by sitting down with Roy Wenzl, author of “The Miracle of Father Kapaun.” Roy has done extensive research on Father Kapaun and interviewed many of the POWs that Father served with both in the war and in the prison camp. Father’s riveting story will surely inspire you as we continue to pray that one day Father Kapaun will be recognized as a saint of the Catholic Church.

Philosophy has a way of intimidating or putting off people for being too ethereal, abstract, or impractical. But today, Dr. Peter Kreeft joins Ben Eriksen to challenge these judgments by discussing his new book “What Would Socrates Say? An Introduction to Philosophy by the Socratic Method.” This work is unlike every other introduction to philosophy; it is not only written in dialogue, but also teaches the reader how to think, not what to think.
In this episode, Dr. Kreeft and Ben discuss the Socratic method, the importance of searching for the truth rather than winning arguments, skepticism, artificial intelligence, and so much more. This engaging conversation demonstrates the importance of philosophy in our everyday lives.

Join us as Fr. Donald Haggerty sits down with Andrew Petiprin to discuss the dark forces that seek to undermine and destroy the Church. In Fr. Haggerty’s new book, The Hour of Testing, he not only locates our era in its historical context, but he also discusses how we should spiritually live in our own time. His relevant insights and depth of thought are manifest in the concentrated reflections offered both in this book and in his podcast.
In this episode, Fr. Haggerty and Andrew discuss the rise of doctrinal ambiguity, the cultural indifference to God, and the Second Coming. As we approach a new era in the Church, Fr. Haggerty’s practical reflections will help any Catholic navigate the coming years in the Church’s history.

It is often said that one can find God in nature, but few have explored the theology behind such a common statement. Join us as Fr. John Nepil talks with Andrew Petiprin about the theological lessons and underpinnings of mountain hiking, which he details in his new book To Heights and Unto Depths. This book and the ensuing conversation artfully weave together theological insights and real-world experience.
Fr. Nepil and Andrew examine the spiritual benefits of the outdoors, both the joys of reaching the summit and the lows felt during arduous hours hiking. They also discuss the modern crisis of manhood, the responsibility of leadership, and how the works of theologians such as Von Balthasar, Cardinal Ratzinger, and Luigi Giussani can reveal spiritual wisdom found on the trail. For those who love the outdoors or theology, this episode is a must watch!
