Traditional Catholicism & the New Age To Catholic Podcast (Podcast EP 4 + Video)

My Podcast

I have started and stopped the New Age To Catholic podcast a of times now. Which I think has more to do with spiritual warfare than it does with my feelings about the podcast itself.  So, I'm going to be talking a bit more about spiritual warfare going forward - in the podcast and on YouTube  

And as part of that. I'll be talking about learning Latin and other aspects of traditional Catholicism. Which is what this episode of New Age To Catholic (which originally aired January 1st) is about:

Untraditional Me

For me, growing up in the sixties and seventies, the world seemed both mysterious and expansive. The New Age and occult was central to this world view but there were a lot of other things that went along with it, like feminism and leftwing politics and Vatican 2, that I didn’t really question – until recently.

Having originally converted to Catholicism in the 1990s (then left and finally returned two years ago) I have always felt like the Novos Ordo (lit. new order) Mass WAS traditional. And I probably would have gone on thinking that way, if not for my experience during the Latin portion of a webinar deliverance prayer session performed by Catholic exorcist Monsignor Stephen Rossetti.

That webinar helped me realize that Latin is unusually effective in spiritual warfare. Which got me thinking.

I began to wonder why Latin and the Traditional Latin Mass are becoming more and more restricted. I began to look into Traditional Latin Masses (TLM) in my area. I was encouraged when one of my YouTube subscribers shared her experience with TLM and praying in Latin.

Providentially, I learned that there are two TLM churches in my area. One of which I can walk to.

Where I’m at Now

In some ways, I’m still straddling the line between traditionalism and the contemporary worldview. But I do have a strong interest in tradition. For now, I'm studying Latin and learning the Mass and just beginning to consider that I have been more wrong, in more ways, then I could have guessed.  

My prayer for the last several weeks has been to be better conformed to God’s will. And so, with that in mind, I’m not formally committing to anything. Other than continuing study and a committment to go wherever God leads me!
