Soldiers of the Immaculate with Fr. Isaac #064: Our Conquest is by The Cross

Soldiers of the Immaculate with Fr. Isaac #063: The Cowardice of Catholics Courts Chastisement
In this episode Father discusses the crisis in the Church following the Second Vatican Council, focusing especially on the liturgical reform, the loss of the sacrificial character and reverence of the Mass, the failure of Church leaders to defend Catholic truth, and the growing confusion and apostasy within the Church.

Our Lady: The Way Through the Crisis
In this episode Father discusses the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary, emphasizing her role as the Immaculate Mother, Mediatrix of All Graces, and model of total conformity to God’s will, particularly through her Fiat and participation in Christ’s redemption.

Open Your Ears and Speak the Truth

Soldiers of the Immaculate with Fr. Isaac #062: Obedience to God or Man?

Soldiers of the Immaculate with Fr. Isaac #061: Vatican 2 is the New Golden Calf
In this episode Father recaps the consecration of the four new bishops by the SSPX, the DDF's document in response to it, the objective fact that there is a grave crisis in the Church, and how even Church law nullifies penalties and censures when actions are motivated by a state of necessity or emergency circumstances. The storm in the Church is REAL, and staying close to the True Mass and our Mo
Soldiers of the Immaculate with Fr. Isaac #060: They Have Not Known the Father Nor Me
In this episode Father briefly discusses Saint John the Baptist and how the world sorely needs someone with his voice crying out in the wilderness of sin to make straight the ways of the Lord. Leo recently made comments in the direction of the SSPX trying to dissuade them from consecrating bishops, asserting the importance of Vatican 2. Father continued reading some excerpts from The Commonitory o

In this episode Father discusses the continuing crisis in the Catholic Church, criticizing recent actions and statements associated with Pope Leo 14th, Vatican officials, and various bishops as departures from traditional Catholic doctrine and governance.

How to Make a Fruitful Confession
In this sermon Father teaches us how to make a truly fruitful confession, emphasizing that the sacrament of penance is a necessary means of salvation after mortal sin.

We must avoid sin, especially occasions of sin, to
Lenten Mission Sermon: How to Carry Your Cross
In this sermon Father discusses the necessity of carrying one’s cross in union with Christ through silent patience, generous love, and filial abandonment to God. Suffering is a gift permitted by God for the sanctification of souls and must be embraced with humility, trust, and perseverance through grace. Let us rediscover that the path to true holiness requires sacrifice, fidelity to daily duties,
The Wisdom of the Cross
In this sermon Father discusses the mystery of the Cross as the central path to salvation, explaining that God’s wisdom often appears as foolishness to the world but it is the means by which souls are purified and saved.

The Church Militant: Standing Firm in the Final Battle
In this Lenten Mission sermon Father discusses the meaning of Holy Week through the lens of spiritual warfare, emphasizing the necessity of fidelity to Christ and His Church as the sole path to salvation.

Why Marian Doctrine Matters
In this sermon Father discusses the Catholic doctrine that the Blessed Virgin Mary is rightly called Co-Redemptrix and Mediatrix of all Graces, that these titles belong to the deposit of faith and are consistently taught by Scripture, Tradition, the Fathers, Doctors, Saints, and Popes. Denying these Marian titles undermines authentic Christology, rejects the Church’s historical teaching authority,
Soldiers of the Immaculate with Fr. Isaac #052: Yellow Brick Road to Hell
In this episode Father discusses the profound crisis in the Church rooted in the Second Vatican Council, synodality, and modern ecclesial reforms which contradict prior infallible teaching and have led to doctrinal confusion, liturgical collapse, and moral corruption. The suppression of the traditional Roman Rite, the promotion of moral errors — especially regarding sexuality — and the infiltratio
The Assumption of Mary: Triumph of Love
In this sermon Father discusses the dogma of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary as defined by Pope Pius XII, emphasizing the Church’s infallible authority to proclaim divinely revealed truths and the necessity of assenting to every dogma of the Catholic faith.

The Woman, the Serpent, and the Triumph of the Immaculate Heart
In this sermon Father discusses the divine motherhood of the Blessed Virgin Mary as the foundation of all Marian doctrine and as inseparable from authentic Christology and the Catholic Faith. Attacks on Mary’s titles — especially Mother of God, Mediatrix of all Graces, and Co-Redemptrix — are signs of doctrinal collapse foretold by saints, councils, and Marian apparitions. Heresy against Mary inev
The Immaculate Conception: Dogma, Defense, and Devotion
In this sermon Father discusses the Immaculate Conception, explaining how Blessed Duns Scotus resolved theological difficulties by arguing that it was fitting for God to preserve His mother from original sin, a doctrine later defined as dogma by Pope Pius 9th. Mary is the “woman” of Genesis who crushes the serpent’s head, and as the “mold of God,” she serves as the perfect mediator to help the fai

Satan knows his time is short, and his final (and he hopes decisive) battle will be against Marriage and the Family, which anyone can see has been well underway for a few decades now. While we know not the day nor the hour, our time is short as well and we need to sanctify the time

In this episode, Father discusses the recent election of Pope Leo 14th and raises some concerns that we as Catholics need to watch.

The ongoing spiritual crisis within the Church requires direct and definitive intervention from the highest

Purgatory is REAL and SEVERE! It is a place where souls in a state of Grace, but not yet fully purified, undergo intense suffering to atone for their sins. It is important to offer prayers and Masses for the Poor Souls, especially Gregorian Masses, and acts of Charity for the relief of these souls. Purgatory is a manifestation of God’s Justice and His Mercy. We need to strive for holiness in this
[Lenten Mission] How to Have a Holy Death
To prepare well for death, meditate on it daily, as Scripture and the Saints advise. The thought of death restrains sin while ignoring it leads to presumption and spiritual ruin.
