Seph Schlueter: From a Viral Worship Anthem to an "Audience of One" (+ more) | The Catholic Morning Show – 07/16/2026

A Breakout Catholic Voice Seph Schlueter has become one of the fastest-rising names in Christian music. His debut single "Counting My Blessings" topped multiple Billboard and Mediabase Christian radio charts, earned him the K-LOVE Fan Award for Breakout Single, and picked up multiple Dove Award nominations. In 2023 he signed with Provident Entertainment (Sony Music) in Nashville — all while continuing to serve as a Catholic missionary in Ohio. He shares a personal Iowa connection with guest host Sam Halligan: his father's parents were both born and raised in Dubuque, where they met. Formed as a Missionary Before the record deal, Schlueter spent years as a full-time missionary with Damascus, a Catholic missionary community based in Columbus, Ohio, where he also founded the worship collective Damascus Worship. He talks about how that season of formation shaped his understanding of what it means to give his life away for others — and what it looks like to live with God as his true "audience of one."

Canon Law and the Age of AI Adam Storey, who works in canon law and marriage ministry for the Diocese of Des Moines, joins Bo Bonner for his monthly canon law segment, this time asking what the Church's Code of Canon Law has to say about technology and artificial intelligence. Storey walks through Canon 212 — the Church's teaching on the faithful's rights and duties to communicate — and outlines three guiding principles for engaging any technology well: genuine competence, the common good, and respect for human dignity. He also touches on Canons 822–832, the Church's guidance on "instruments of social communication," and how it's meant to order the Church's communication toward unity rather than division.

Canon Law Meets AI: What Church Law Says About Technology - Adam Storey | The Catholic Morning Show – 07/16/2026

A Monthly Conversation on Canon Law Adam Storey, who works in canon law and marriage ministry for the Diocese of Des Moines, joins host Bo Bonner for his regular monthly segment on how Church law intersects with everyday life — this time turning to a timely topic: technology and artificial intelligence. What Canon 212 Says About Communication Storey walks through Canon 212 of the 1983 Code of Canon Law, which addresses the rights and duties of the faithful to communicate honestly and respectfully. He highlights three guiding principles that apply just as much to artificial intelligence and social media as to any other form of communication: acting from genuine competence and knowledge, keeping the common good in view, and always respecting the dignity of the person. The Church's Teaching on "Instruments of Social Communication" The conversation also touches on Canons 822–832, the section of Church law addressing the "instruments of social communication" — guidance Storey says is meant not to restrict the faithful, but to order the Church's communication toward unity, truth, and the good of the community, under the guidance of the Church's pastors. Why It Matters Storey and Bonner discuss how these principles can help Catholics navigate disagreement and division — encouraging communication that builds up the Body of Christ rather than fostering contempt or discord. Adam Storey joins The Catholic Morning Show for a canon law conversation every month.

Terry Herrman: Breaking the Cycle of Recidivism at Matthew 25 House (+ more) | The Catholic Morning Show - 07/15/2026

Answering the Call of Matthew 25 Terry Herrman, president of the Board of Directors for Matthew 25 House, joins the show to talk about the Ames, Iowa ministry that helps formerly incarcerated men "imagine and embrace a new way of living through Christ-centered relationships that build a sense of belonging and self-worth." Terry shares how a chance conversation with a deacon at his church pulled him onto the board, what a typical week of volunteering looks like (6 a.m. devotions Monday–Friday, Saturday Bible study, and church integration for residents), and the moment that means the most to him: watching the men graduate the year-long program — and stay in the community long after.

Matthew 25 House: Helping Formerly Incarcerated Men Find New Life in Christ - Terry Herrman - 07/15/2026

The Mission Matthew 25 House is a Christian outreach ministry in Ames that helps men transitioning out of the Story County Jail, halfway houses, or Iowa prisons. Its goal: to help formerly incarcerated men imagine and embrace a new way of living through Christ-centered relationships that build belonging and self-worth, breaking the cycle of recidivism that pulls nearly 70% of released men back to jail. Terry's Story Terry Herman didn't set out to join the board — a deacon at his church asked him to fill in at a single board meeting, "and from that moment on, I was hooked." Unlike other board members, Terry had no personal connection to incarceration; it was the mission itself, and the other board members' devotion to it, that pulled him in. A Week in the Life of a Volunteer Residents gather for devotion time every morning at 6 a.m., Monday through Friday, plus a Saturday Bible study, and are encouraged to join a local church community. Volunteers help in all kinds of ways — mentorship, employment coaching, budgeting help, or simply spending time with the men, teaching by example what it looks like to give of yourself to others. The Moment That Matters Most For Terry, nothing beats watching a resident complete the year-long program and graduate — and then stay connected to the community long after, continuing in church, Bible study, and fellowship even after moving into a place of their own. Four Key Focuses * Provide a Christian Family Home-Life * Provide a Church and a Sense of Belonging * Provide a Spiritual and Faith-Based Lifestyle * Provide a Base Needed for Success How to Help Learn more, volunteer, or donate at Matthew 25 House [https://matthew25house.org/?utm_source=Iowa%20Catholic%20Radio&utm_medium=Podcast&utm_campaign=The%20Catholic%20Morning%20Show].
