Thursday really talks too much and is so overly hard line. Is this Matt’s show or some tradcath gen z wannabe alpha male? He makes so many errors, self aggrandizes and interrupts far too often since he has come on board. Such a lack of general humility
That was really good! Father Pine is very impressive, thanks for having him. I appreciate Thursday pushing back on the issue of Medugorje and asking the difficult questions, especially in the face of the very confident and knowledgeable Father.
How does God help someone who has dementia?
To be very honest, for the longest time I thought that Matt and Fr. Gregory were siblings lol!
Excellent content. Thank you.
Minute 28 to 49 were really great and great fun and very much true stuff. Thank you both very much.
We're going down fast now on this doomed ship, but we're going down in Glory all the same. I mean we couldn't possibly gather together, for us to secure a future, as chances for the real, all the conditions necessary for a decent human world to survive let alone thrive, now that the great and imperfect help of Christendom has gone to smithereens (from the irish smidirini, or little bits) as an overall world of culture, a vector we could hang on to even if we weren't willfully so, but we will always have this overpowering destiny nothing created can trample with and waste, and surely not our sin if we accept to want to give it up somehow, some day, somewhat, still.
I am going to phrase all the beforesaid again but as a programatic invitation for your podcast, Matt: to meditate with a capable person before us all on the following, harrowingly profound phrase of Georges Bernanos (another one of these long dead frenchies that still matter a lot): It takes a second, to make a christian (a second of grace – sorry, that is me), but it takes centuries to make a man of christendom (meaning grace having become the force of a culture, wether we want that collective vector of salvation or not, it's just there as a world to take in, before we start acting…me again, sorry). Think for instance of the old father of three brothers after the death of his wife, in the 1980's film of Francesco Rosi, Tre Fratelli. This poverty in demeanor is all dignity. This was what Pasolini lamented was for ever gone, in his fast evolving Italy, with the then already ongoing, according to his discernment in the late 70's, anthropological mutation, as he called it……Bernanos the same. He saw misery growing, and poverty, poverty the great
like in Alexanderleave the premisses.Thursday is totally tinfoil hatting Medjugorje, watched one scathing documentary from the 90s and now he knows more than Fr Pine?
When you're from Ireland it's all about Mary and Patrick
Regarding Christ's baptism…could not part of His reason be what he tells us…follow me? Just wondering
All wisdom is intelligent, not all intelligence is wise. Jimmy Akin is intelligent, but not often wise.
Father G with the beard! So excited to watch this.
I have to say, Fr. Pine’s beard looks mighty similar to General Tecumseh Sherman’s beard while he fought in the Civil War (just not red in hue).
A catholic priest giving spiritual direction. (;-D Now thats true comedy.
Will it be Father Doctor Pine or Doctor Father Pine??
I get why the comment about Casablanca irritated Fr Pine. First of all, it's not a good catch with a guest to start useless discussions about such trivial topics, ruins the vibe of the talk.
Secondly, i never saw the movie, but if the plot is as described, I don't think "simp" is a good word for the guy who sacrifices himself for love. That's why Fr Pine correctly addresses moder red-pill internet language as shallow and stupid (indirectly). The guy sacrifices himself to save a woman purely because he wants her good. He knew her, he could have had her from what I understood. He chose the best outcome scenario for her – it's a noble message, unfortunately zoomers won't get it
CATHOLICS ARE ALL BLIND FOOLS. YOU WILL NEVER FIND YOUR WAY UNTIL YOU TRASH ALL THE EVIL DECEPTION YOU HAVE ACCEPTED.. NONE OF YOU ARE SAVED UNTIL YOU REJECT THE CLEAR NONSENSE. DO NOT PRETEND TO BE SHOCKED UPON DEATH IF YOU EMBRACE THE COMPLETE NONSENSE. JEUS IS WAITING FOR YOU. BETTER BUST A MOVE. WHY PLANT TRASH BETWEEN YOURSELF AND YOUR FATHER. BEING SWEET AND KIND AND WELL-SPOKEN MEANS SWUAT. IT WILL LEAD YOU DIRECTLY TO SATAN.YOU BLIND FOOLS. YOU ARE NOT SAVED AND MUST RETURN TO FIRST GRADE
I have to say the Glory Be last. It tells the ending. I say the Fatima prayer before the Glory Be so it’s still at the end of the decade. I need to hear end to know it’s complete.
Great interview. Fr. Pines brings the peace. I had to giggle. Matt borderline dogged the Rosary, basically said he’d rather pray anything with beads but the rosary. He wrecked shop on the Scriptural Rosary UNTIL it was time to push his Pocket Guide to the Rosary. 😂😂😂 Funny, not funny.. 😊
Fr. Gregory Pine is giving homily at my parish on the old feast of St. Dominic this week. I am pumped for celebrity priest
01:14 Fr. Pine, I'm Joel (Yō'ēl). Hope you remember me. I was asking for some suggestions, a year ago on your livestream here in PWA, as was about to enter my postulancy in the Dominican Order.
I started growing my beard on May 28th as well. Ooh!
Starts at around 13 minutes
Thursday Thursday Thursday Thursday Thursday Thursday Thursday Thursday Thursday Thursday Thursday Thursday Thursday Thursday Thursday Thursday Thursday Thursday Thursday Thursday Thursday wtf is going on in the description
Probably my favorite episode so far. As a Protestant, his definition and explanations on worship blew my mind.
Best movie recently: Nefarious …. Hands down. Not sure if the devil exists? Then don't watch it.
Everything father pine says sounds like he’s been waiting to say it his entire life
I just want to thank you for this incredible and hope filled video with Fr. Gregory <3 Fr. Greg, thank you truly for your personal and Church insight on Our Lady of Medjugorje <3 I love Our Lady, and we are praying for you all <3 Blessings and love to all, Lisa and Mark <3
Fr Beardsley
I love to pray the rosary, and meditate on ALL the mysteries wich are important events in the bible. I hate to rush it and I love the prayers…sometimes it takes an hour. It It pleases me to try to at least be with Him: " Could you not keep watch with me for one hour?" Amen
In the same way that women dress to impress other women, men grow their beards to impress other men.
I feel it should be noted that the approved apparitions of Our Lady have consistently pointed out the importance of the rosary for our times.
Please quit playing the part of Adam in this world. Matt, do you see Christ in your wife when you’re more concerned about your beard! Matt, do you see Christ in yourself and you put yourself down. Who is feeding your free will that God gave you. It sounds like Satan is feeding your free will in your opening dialogue about self. you both sound like you’re being manipulated by Satan using your free will.
Thank God, you both care in Christ. I’m having trouble hearing Christ 👂🏼🙏🏿
You’re opening dialogue sounds like Adam in this world at the garden of Eden, where he told Eve he would eat the green apples from the tree of knowledge. Manipulation.
Your beards are only cool in Christ, thank God

THE GOSPEL OF THE WORD OF ALMIGHTY GOD "the last age in which God saves man from the destruction of this old world"
(In the last days, God become man to do the work He had to do and to perform His ministry of the word. He personally came to work in the midst of the people with goal of making perfect people who had the same attitude. One of the purposes of this incarnation is conquer people, the is to make perfect the people He loves. He wants to see with His own eyes the people He perfects, and He wants to see for Himself how the people He perfects testify for Him. People in this group come from different countries in the world, and come from different nationalities in the world. The purpose of doing so much work is to get this group of people, to get the testimony of this group of the people to Him, and to achieve the glory He can get from them.)
Almighty God said
In the LAST DAYS, GOD became MAN to DO the WORK He HAD to DO and to PERFORM His MINISTRY of the WORD. He PERSONALLY CAME to WORK in the MIDST of PEOPLE with the GOAL of making PERFECT PEOPLE WHO HAD the SAME ATTITUDE. 🙏
From the time of creation until now, He has only performed this kind of work in the LAST DAYS. It was only in the LAST DAYS that GOD BECAME MAN to DO such a great WORK. Although He endured hardships that men would find it hard to bear, and although He was a GREAT GOD who HUMBLED HIMSELF to become a common man, no aspect of His WORK was delayed, and His PLAN was not disrupted. even a little. He does the WORK according to His ORIGINAL PLAN. ☀️
ONE of the PURPOSES of this INCARNATION is to CONQUER PEOPLE, the OTHER is to MAKE PERFECT the PEOPLE He LOVES. He WANTS to SEE with His OWN EYES the PEOPLE He PERFECTS, and He wants to SEE for HIMSELF HOW the PEOPLE He PERFECTS TESTIFY for Him. NOT ONE or TWO PEOPLE are PERFECT. Rather, it is ONE GROUP, COMPRISED of just a FEW PEOPLE. ☀️🙏
PEOPLE in this GROUP COME from DIFFERENT COUNTRIES in the WORLD, and COME from DIFFERENT NATIONALITIES in the WORLD. The PURPOSE of DOING so much WORK is to GET this GROUP of PEOPLE, to GET the TESTIMONY of this GROUP OF PEOPLE to Him, and to ACHIEVE the GLORY He can GET from them. He does no work in vain, nor does He do any work worthless. It can be said that, in doing so many works, GOD'S PURPOSE is to make PERFECT EVERYTHING He WANTS to make PERFECT. In any free time He has outside of it, He will remove those who are evil. ☀️
You must know that He does not do this great work because of the wicked; rather, He gives His all because of the few people He will make perfect. The WORK He DOES, the WORDS He SPEAKS, the MYSTERIES He REVEALS, and His JUDGMENT and PUNISHMENT are ALL for the sane of those FEW PEOPLE. 🙏
He did NOT become a MAN because of those who were BAD, and especially they did NOT provoke Him to anger so much. He tells the TRUTH, and SPEAKS of ENTERING, because of PERFECT WORKS; He became MAN because of them, and because of them He could grant His PROMISES and BLESSINGS. ☀️
The truth, entrance, and life in humanity that He speaks of is not labored for the sake of the wicked. He WANTS to AVOID TALKING to those who are BAD, INSTEAD He WANTS to GRANT all the TRUTH to those who will be made PERFECT.
But His work requires that, for the time being, He allows the WICKED to ENJOY some of His RICHES. Those who do not practice the truth, do not please God, and interfere with His work are all evil. They CANNOT BE MADE PERFECT, and GOD HATES and REJECTS them. 😪
On the other hand, PEOPLE WHO DO the TRUTH and PLEASE GOD and SPEND their WHOLE SELF in GOD'S WORK are the PEOPLE GOD WILL MAKE PERFECT. 🙏
Those whom GOD wants to make PERFECT are none other than this GROUP of PEOPLE, and the WORK GOD DOES is for the BENEFIT of these PEOPLE. The truth He speaks is for those who are WILLING to DO it. He does not speak to people who do not practice the truth. ☀️
The growth of knowledge and the growth of understanding that He says is aimed at those who can practice the truth. When He speaks of those who will be made perfect, He is speaking of these people.
The WORK of the HOLY SPIRIT is FOCUSED on PEOPLE who CAN do the TRUTH. 🙏
Things like having wisdom and being human are dedicated to people who are WILLING to DO the TRUTH. Those who DO NOT PRACTICE the TRUTH may HEAR MANY WORDS of TRUTH, BUT BECAUSE they are by NATURE VERY EVIL and are NOT INTERESTED in the TRUTH, all they understand are doctrines and words and empty theories, which have not the slightest value for upon their entry into life. Not ONE of THEM is FAITHFUL to GOD; they are ALL PEOPLE WHO SEE GOD BUT CANNOT REACH Him, ALL of THEM are CURSED by GOD. 😪🙏
From "Only Those Who Commit to Practice Make Perfection"

The kingdom He brought down and built in the worthy holy place in the highest in the sky and when all the humanity He created in the universe was occupied by it and it was engraved in His holy name and owned by His disposition "THE CHURCH OF ALMIGHTY GOD" 💐 this is the fulfillment of (Mat. 16:18) The Lord Jesus said, "And I say to you, Peter, on top of this eunuch I will build my Church, which will not prevail against him even the fear of death.". … and fulfillment of "The Letter to the Church in Philadelphia" (Rev. 3:7-13). … and fulfillment of "The New Jerusalem"💫 "The Spirit covered me, and the angel led me to the top of a very high mountain.

(Rev. 7:10). … Fulfillment that it will be built in the highest of the sky that in our Millennial generation that is YouTube in (Isaiah 2:2 / 9:6) "In the last day, the mountain on which Jehovah's temple stands will stand out above all the mountains. All the nations will flock there.". … "For a baby boy is born for us. The rule will be given to him; and he shall be called Wonderful Counselor, Almighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace." ✉️💌
1:57:00 This is one of the things I still struggle with as I'm discerning the catholic faith. The Hail Holy Queen addressing Mary as "our life" feels wrong given that Jesus Christ is our source of life.
What is the picture of the nun on that shelf??
@thursday.. those running notes got me confused with time stamps of a whole different interview. I'm wondering "when did Fr. Pine speak about all of this?!?!? Oh my goodness! I must have been snoozing the whole time!!" But dont worry, found the right one way below 😂
Thrsday was obviously very bothered about Madjorge, you can tell he has a lot of personal hurt from it
YOU are a shining light Father in the darkest moment of our Church
Showers of Blessings from God
Not once was scripture quoted to uphold these things
Champions of the Rosary by Fr Don Calloway is a great resource for why the rosary is the way it is, and which saints have been devoted to them. The Luminous mysteries were suggested by a couple of those saints back in the middle ages. JPII didn't pull them out of thin air
I absolutely love the precision with which Father Pine speaks, and yet he reminds me of a bro i could just be homies with.
I really appreciate Father Mike sharing that part about the plenary indulgence
If my 3yo could follow this conversation, she would be offended on behalf of all T-rexes.
Worst Casablanca take Thrsday
Ummm… when Fr. Pine goes into explaining how he organizes his citations… DOES ANYONE ELSE’S BRAIN EXPLODE FOR HOW INTELLIGENT AND METHODICAL HIS SYSTEMATIC BRAIN IS?!? 🤯🤯🤯 Soli Deo Gloria!!!!!🎉🙏🏽🙌🏽
