Please share any videos here that you found of spiritual benefit.
I'm working through Fr Ripperger's and today this one left me with wanting more of the same. So I found a second one I benefited from as well.

I'm blessed to have access to this shrine 24/7.
Wonderful idea. I've been wanting something like this for so long but never bit the bullet.
When I was in the process of returning to the Church, watching talks by Franciscan Friars of the Renewal (https://www.franciscanfriars.com/) helped me a lot. However, their YouTube channel is sponsored by Ascension Press, and while the order was founded as a reform breakaway from the lax tendencies of the Capuchins, it is not a fully traditionalist one. (It is a different order from the Franciscan Friars of the Immaculate.) It was founded by Fr. Benedict Groeschel as well as some others who have even spoken in favor of Medjugorje. On the other hand, they live among the poor, their sister order (https://www.franciscansisterscfr.com/) keeps to full habits and has many postulants, and one of theirs is among those arrested recently by the FBI for padlocking an abortion clinic (https://nypost.com/2022/09/29/franciscan-friar-charged-for-padlocking-li-planned-parenthood-feds/). In short, they're not OFM, and to use an overused word, they are indeed "based".

Thanks for posting that. I'm working my way through Lehodey's Ways of of Mental Prayer and as I'm single and at 64 plan to remain that way, and blessed to have an antebellum German Gothic church as my workplace, I may be able to make prayer without ceasing a goal in as much that one who lives outside a monastery can do so.
Either way, an increase in prayer is good for the soul at any level.
ETA: I did watch enough of the first one to see that it will be a good addition to Lehodey's book.
Found a video reading of The Ways of Mental Prayer by Dom Vitalis Lehodey
Here is part 1..

Very good one here.

This particular series on Fr. Ripperger's site features Spiritual Life. It's a series of sequenced talks on the basics of spiritual growth and the unfortunate reality of how complacent Catholics can be, relying on "staying out of [mortal] sin" as the supposed ultimate goal of our faith, when it is not.
Sanctification is the only way we'll arrive in Heaven, and sanctification goes far beyond staying out of serious sin. Most Catholics -- especially those lacking a spiritual director -- are blind to what is called our predominant fault or primary defect. Without confronting that in ourselves, we will not be ready to see God face-to-face.
He also makes an important point about the absence of spiritual reading among trads and the unfortunate reliance on the Mass and vocal prayer, which are baby steps of a much longer and deeper journey. Here's the series:

Search this forum. It's been discussed several times. Good stuff.
Would you mind me asking if you could title who the video is from e.g. Fr Ripperger - always excellent, Fr Alar etc so I can know the ones that comes from the priests as opposed to non-religious discussing a topic.
Some of my favourite sermons are Bishop Williamson's.
Mostly on Rumble and Telegram.

The 2 videos above on finding our predominant fault are by Father Phil Wolfe (FSSP).
Here's a link to a great sermon by Father Wolfe (from Father Nix's website), How To Assist Someone in Making an Act of Perfect Contrition (https://www.padreperegrino.org/2022/01/how-to-assist-someone-in-making-an-act-of-perfect-contrition/)
Quote
Under all these continued lockdowns, I believe the below video might be the most underrated thing on YouTube. It's Fr. Philip Wolfe FSSP describing how to assist someone in making an act of perfect contrition. Most people would find it quite a show-stopper to learn that the Catholic Church teaches that a person dying in original sin (like a Muslim or Jew) or a person in mortal sin (like a Catholic who has not been to confession in a decade) can still be saved by God with only a layman at his deathbed! It is so important as more priests and sacraments are cancelled and as hospitals double-down on vaccine-status against family members and active priests to watch this short video on how to guide anyone (including yourself) through making an act of perfect contrition in one's heart and with one's lips.
Fr. Wolfe maintains it is not as difficult to make an act of perfect contrition as one might think. And whereas you must go to confession before Holy Communion if you were in mortal sin and still live, perfect contrition before God (even without a priest) can bring you into sanctifying grace. Under these continued lockdowns and cancelled sacraments, I know of no more important video or podcast to donate 15 of your minutes to this weekend than this...
It's a shame Romans10Seventeen shut down. There were loads of sermons on there. I think the collection can still be found somewhere online.

I think it morphed into AudioSancto which got absorbed by SensusFidelium?
Well, I'd imagine most long time trads have heard of St Leonard of Port Maurice's sermon on the fewness of those saved.
Thanks to @Stubborn for posting this sermon on another forum. It's one of Fr Bitzer's sermons. He was ordained by Archbishop Lefebvre.
Anyhow, if this doesn't get us to up our game I'm not sure what will. Actually two sermons on one video.

. YOU FOUND IT!!!
I heard this late at night a few years ago, lost laptop, etc. Absolutely a must to listen to, but of course I could never find it again. :toth:
Here is one of those short videos from Franciscan Friars of the Renewal, a religious order I described back in my Reply #2. It may be helpful for recent reverts and converts and to share with loved ones for whose conversion/reversion we pray.
How to fear the Lord: Fr. Columba Jordan (7:05)

Another one from Fr. Columba Jordan CFR: The Secret to Self-Control and Accepting the Unchangeable (7:30), a basic clarification or reminder for moments of doubt and for those living among others whose faith commitment may not be so strong [yet]:

And a third from Fr. Columba Jordan CFR; ditto my comments on the last two posts: How Not to Be Conformed to This Age (8:08):

The Franciscans of the Renewal aren't trad, but have a great energy and spirit to them. While the Capuchins aren't without merit (like great charitable work in Dublin), Vatican politics can eat away any charism.
In addition to the full sensus traditionis (Fr. Ripperger) conferences, sermons, and videos (Click on Multimedia when you open this link)
http://sensustraditionis.org/
I sometimes go to the Marian Friars Minor for Fr. Anthony's sermons:
https://www.marianfriarsminor.com/videos
For example, he made one a couple of years ago on The Imitation of Christ. (Select by scrolling horizontally.)
I would also listen to The Meaning of Penance. A third one is the sermon called, If You Can't Be Saved by Innocence, Do It by Penance.
All three are especially appropriate for Lent.
I regret that over the last 2 days, sensustraditionis.org is not reachable. If anyone knows what happened to the site, please share.

I don't see the previous menu (of anything, besides Donate and the Mission Statement.) And I'm using the same computer I was using a couple of days ago, when the site could not be located. Perhaps it's still in the process of being developed or reorgankzed?
If you click on the red arrow on the lower left, a talk begins, but the talk (I think I know which one it is) is not listed. There are no lists of anything when I look at the page -- nothing to navigate or select.
It seems that I am at least partly correct, in that I still don't see menu choices on the landing page. However, if I put the site into a search engine, and options come up with the search field, such as "Multimedia," then I can get directly to those options in that way.
It also seems that my assumption about their reconstructing the page is also correct. The layout is different from how it used to be when selecting Multimedia.
ETA: Even at the direct Multimedia link, the three options appear as tabs at the bottom of the page, but none are openable. Instead, the same red arrow displays on bottom left, with the same talk on the state of charity in the church and world, but no title, no lists, no other options.
Sorry, I misread. I was thinking of Sensus Fideliun YT channel.

I didn't have time to watch the whole video yet, but notice what Mass he's saying.
This recent surge in hermits reminds me of the early Church. Keep in mind the first hermits and monks emerged in the mid to late third century, well before Christianity was legalized. God even now is raising up holy men and women to do combat with the devil, on the verge of a great resurgence of the Faith, it would seem, from the pattern of Church history.

Fr Carney isn't a very dynamic preacher but I think he's doing a good thing in promoting devotion to the Holy Face.
