Good morning! On today’s show, Matt Swaim and Anna Mitchell welcome legal and political analyst Ken Craycraft to attempt to make sense of the chaos on Capitol Hill yesterday afternoon, and ponder how Catholics should respond. Other guests include Casey Chalk on why it’s important to understand Catholicism as a “both/and” and not an “either/or” religion, Dr. John Bergsma on God’s covenant with Adam, and pastoral counselor Kevin Prendergast on moving beyond New Year’s resolutions to embracing real positive personal change in the New Year. Plus news, weather, sports and a whole lot more…

Invocation of the Nine Choirs of Angels
O holy Angels, watch over us at all times during this perilous life.
O holy Archangels, be our guides on the way to heaven.
O heavenly choir of the principalities, govern us in soul and body.
O mighty Powers, preserve us against the wiles of the demons.
O celestial Virtues, give us strength and courage in the battle of life
O powerful Dominions, obtain for us dominion over the rebellion of our flesh.
O sacred Thrones, grant us peace with God and man.
O brilliant Cherubim, illuminate our minds with heavenly knowledge
O burning Seraphim, enkindle in our hearts the fire of charity. Amen.
