<![CDATA[Rooted--Catholic Formation]]> https://rss.com/podcasts/rooted-catholic-formation Rooted is a Catholic formation podcast dedicated to helping young people build a strong, lasting foundation in the Catholic faith. In a world full of noise, confusion, and shifting values, we return to the solid ground of timeless truth, drawing from Scripture, the saints, and great Catholic writers such as G.K. Chesterton and J.R.R. Tolkien.

Each week we offer short, practical, and thoughtful episodes designed to deepen your relationship with God and help you live the faith with greater clarity and joy. Our flagship series is a 12-week basic Catholic formation course that begins with the universal human experience of the Moral Law and moves through the central truths of the faith: the existence and nature of God, the person of Jesus Christ, the Trinity, creation, redemption, the Church, the sacraments (especially the Eucharist), grace, virtue, spiritual warfare, and our ultimate hope of eternal life with God.

But Rooted is more than just a course. We also bring you regular episodes that go deeper into the practice of the faith — honest conversations about prayer, temptation, relationships, work, purity, discernment, family life, and how to stay faithful in everyday struggles. Whether you’re just beginning to take your faith seriously or you’ve been Catholic for years and want to grow stronger, these episodes offer practical wisdom, encouragement, and real tools you can use right away.

Inspired by the image of a man sitting quietly at the shore, gazing toward the horizon with the Cross shining above, Rooted invites you to slow down, look deeper, and anchor your life in Christ — the firm foundation that never moves.

Join us if you’re ready to move beyond surface-level religion and grow into a mature, joyful, and rooted Catholic life. New episodes drop regularly. Listen, reflect, and take the next step in your faith journey.

Drawing from C.S. Lewis’s Mere Christianity, this short talk explores the Moral Law as a universal reality that points beyond ourselves to a higher reality and a personal God.

You’ll discover why this inner “ought” is not just instinct or social convention, why we all make excuses when we break it, and how this everyday experience is one of the strongest clues we have that there is a God to whom we are accountable.

Key Topics:

  • The reality of the Moral Law and how we all recognize it.
  • Why it cannot be reduced to instincts or cultural rules.
  • The first step toward faith: acknowledging the standard we know but often fail to keep.

Scripture: Romans 2:14-15

Practical Step: Each night this week, pause for one minute and honestly ask yourself: “Where did I choose against what I knew was right today?” (Just one honest sentence in your mind or on your phone.)

Suggested Reading: C.S. Lewis, Mere Christianity, Book 1, Chapter 1 (short and very accessible).

Whether you’re exploring the faith or seeking to go deeper, this foundational episode sets the tone for the entire Rooted series. Listen, reflect, and take the first small step toward a life firmly rooted in God.

Length: ~7 minutes Perfect for busy young adults who want short, meaningful formation content.
