Right Now with Ralph Martin

Catholic devotion to Divine Mercy is bearing wonderful fruit in the Church today, but it is also susceptible to being “hijacked,” diverted from its intended purpose. There’s a popular perception that goes something like this, “God is so merciful that very few, if any, will be lost.” This is actually a distortion of the true meaning of mercy because it engenders an attitude of presumption and indifference that seriously undermines the Christian life. This video proposes an antidote to this false perception: true knowledge of what Jesus revealed to St. Faustina, not only about his great mercy, but also the necessity to respond to the offer of mercy with faith, repentance, and obedience in order for it to have its proper effect.

This week, Ralph looks at the "big picture" of the pro-life movement and the central decision at the root of choosing life, choosing for ETERNAL life.

John 3:16 is a very well-known verse that offers a short summary of the Gospel. This week, Ralph comments on this famous verse and the verses surrounding it to expand our understanding of its meaning beyond just what is popularly considered, and of course, it is all about salvation!
