For the longest time, the United States was one of the top providers in the world of quality and affordable health care. Is that still the case?

Can you even afford health insurance for yourself or your family? Do you believe that you still have ample choices? Share your experience with finding and receiving health care in the last few years. Tune in at Noon ET and share your take on EWTN Radio.
Every human being will leave the world better or worse for having lived his or her life. We often think of “significant” people as the ones who will leave something great behind in the world. A famous piece of music. A world renown piece of art. An architectural masterpiece. But the opportunity to leave the world something great is open to each of us. What would you like to leave the world?

Perhaps the greatest mother-son faith story of all time – after that of Mary and Jesus, of course – is the account of how St. Monica’s prayers helped lead to the conversion and, ultimately, sainthood of her son, St. Augustine. Their feast days are Saturday and Sunday, respectively. So, on Monday, Jerry and Debbie will welcome your takes on the power of a mother’s prayers. Are you a mother who is praying for your children to return to the faith? Did your mother pour out her heart to God, such that He heard her prayers and brought you back? This will be a powerful episode of Take 2 With Jerry and Debbie at Noon ET on EWTN Radio.
Saints Monica and Augustine
Knowing the love of God the Father, and translating that into being a loving father to one’s children, is so very important. It becomes much harder when one’s early life was filled with traumas and abuse. On Wednesday, Jerry and Debbie welcome Catholic speaker and permanent deacon candidate John Sablan to the program. John has spent his life digging out from under the wreckage created by some of those who were supposed to love and nurture him into manhood and fatherhood. Through God’s grace and healing, John is now on fire for helping others know “a father’s love.” You don’t want to miss this episode at Noon ET, with a reply at Midnight ET.

Being unemployed is a big challenge for many people, especially if you have a mortgage or rent to pay and mouths to feed. As we discussed on our August 17 show, the Church’s social justice teachings include the right of every person to productive and gainful employment. But that depends a lot on economic realities and other factors. Are you out of work and looking everywhere you can for a job? How has it impacted you and your family? Join Jerry and Debbie for this important discussion on Monday at Noon ET, with a reply at Midnight ET, only on EWTN Radio.
Monday is the Feast of the Assumption of the Virgin Mary into Heaven. One of our greatest spiritual weapons is the Rosary. The key is to meditate as much as possible on the mysteries that are reflected in the prayers. Fr. Edward Looney, a priest of the Diocese of Green Bay, has authored a book of reflections that are sure to help you penetrate more deeply into these beautiful mysteries. It’s called A Rosary Litany. It’s filled with short meditations (each one just a few words) that you insert into the prayers of the Rosary to help the mysteries come alive. Don’t miss this episode with Jerry and Debbie.
You can learn about getting a copy of Fr. Edward Looney’s book at https://arosarylitany.com.
So much of what we do in life is moving to the “cloud,” i.e. into the possession of someone else. Is our life’s information safe? Should we be trusting our most sensitive information to computer servers whose whereabouts we never know? Call today with your takes starting at Noon ET.
Every day we see people jaywalk, roll through stop signs/lights, go way over the speed limit, etc. What are we to make of this? What’s at the root of it? Selfishness? A blatant disregard for the law? Do people even care about the rule of law anymore? Have we become a society of people who are so jaded that we don’t care what the law says? Maybe we even find ourselves doing these things. It is a big deal or not? Share your take with Jerry and Debbie and the world on Thursday.
