A special episode coming from the great mountains of Wyoming!
I'm spending time out here with family and thought I'd air an episode delving into some viewer feedback, including questions about whether Catholics can vote for Trump, a NYC showdown with the demonic, "Heterosexual Awesomeness Month," the myth of overpopulation and much more.
The name Stella Maris has its roots in a 5th-century translation by St. Jerome of the Hebrew name for Mary, Miryam. Originally written as Stilla Maris, it meant "Drop of the Sea." Through what likely stemmed from a transcription error, this evolved into Stella Maris, which means "Star of the Sea."
This title has been cherished in Catholic tradition, especially among seafarers before modern navigation, as they relied on the stars to guide them. Notably, the North Star, Polaris, was also known as Stella Maris.
Beyond just seafarers, Stella Maris serves as a beacon for all of life’s travelers, illuminating the darkness and offering hope as it cuts through the fog, guiding us toward the bright shores of eternity.
"Bringing hope to a world in need."
