I’ve yet to listen to an episode just once. Every single one is worth a re-listen, with a pen and notebook in hand. Simple. Practical. And always surprising- no one breaks open and brings to life the Gospel story like Father John and Mary! I wish I could move in with them and listen to their...Read full review »

I have truly been so inspired by Father John and Mary! The topics are current, relevant to my life as I'm trying to grow in faith and discipleship (while working full time plus and dealing with the challenges that life throws at us), and inspire me to live and act in faith. I am so glad I...Read full review »

Hello Fr John, For many years now I pray every day for Michelle Knight, Gina DeJesus and Amanda Berry and her daughter. They were captured and tortured just as you describe in your book. I always remember a part in Amanda’s story where there was a picture of Jesus in the room she was...Read full review »

Father John and Mary are the dynamic duo. Their podcast offers hope, joy, and courage. They are not afraid. They do not disparage anyone (other than the evil one itself). They are not discouraged. They were born for this.

I was there in Columbus to experience the event and it was just amazing. Acts XXIX will remain in my prayers and I would love to help in any way that I can to help God get his world back!

I found this podcast after listening to Bible in a Year. After listening to two and loving them. I decided to start from the beginning!

It’s a keeper... Fr. Riccardo & ACTS XXIX Podcast is a must listen for Catholics. Practical, relevant, and essential discussion for our understanding of the Eucharist and preparing for communion today... Thank you Father!

I keep checking for new shows. I went to your website to make sure all is well because there hasn’t been a new show for a few days which is unusual for you. I have come to rely on you for inspiration and motivation.

Father John’s words inspire me, give me comfort and strengthen my faith. He has always been able to light a fire to my soul ever since I was a kid! Now more than ever, when I can’t go to mass, I need his words of wisdom. I can feel the Holy Spirit working through him! So glad he’s doing this!

Fr. John has always been gifted with the ability to speak to everyone in a way that is clear, concise and personal. I feel like he knows my heart and talks to my fears, concerns and hopes.

My Pastor pointed me to this podcast in the Church bulletin, and I am thankful that he did. I have listened to Fr. Ricardo’s other podcasts before, and I am very grateful for his work. In the Acts XXIX podcasts, he proclaims the good news in ways that make it much more meaningful than I have ever...Read full review »

There is simply no better speaker in Catholicism today than Fr. John Riccardo. Period.

Too much fluff. Needs more substance. Less chit-chatting.
