    Learn the traditional Prayer to St. Anthony for lost items in Latin with a full line-by-line breakdown, translation, and vocabulary explanation.

    We break down the Latin text of the St. Anthony prayer, explaining key phrases such as “Sancte Antoni,” “restituendi,” “inveniam,” and “veri boni” to help with Latin learning, Catholic prayer study, and traditional Catholic spirituality.

    Beyond the practical devotion of asking St. Anthony of Padua, patron saint of lost things, this episode reveals the prayer’s interior movement: from seeking lost objects to seeking peace, detachment, and ultimately God as the highest good.

    Sola Scriptura Refuted in Latin: 3 Verses, 3 Grammar Moves | YT Catechesis (Audio Only)

    29/05/2026 | 6 mins.
    Sola Scriptura: A Theological Debate

    The Bible never says Scripture is the sole authority of the Christian faith, and the Latin proves it. In this episode, we examine three texts from St. Paul and St. Peter and let the grammar do the work. No philosophical argument. No circular reasoning. Just the words themselves, in the language the Church has always read them.

    This video explores the concept of biblical authority within Christianity, specifically addressing the divide between Protestant and Catholic beliefs. We examine why the Bible does not explicitly state scripture is the sole authority, and how Latin texts provide additional insight. The discussion sheds light on the differences between "sola scriptura" and the Catholic view, offering a deeper understanding of the Christian theology at play. You will also see familiar Latin prayers such as Pater Noster, Ave Maria, and Gloria Patri.

    St. Alphonsus Liguori Meditation: The Love of Jesus in the Most Holy Sacrament (Audio Only)

    15/05/2026 | 5 mins.
    St. Alphonsus Liguori’s meditation on the Most Holy Sacrament invites us to contemplate the love of Jesus in the Eucharist, where Our Lord remains with us even to the end of the world.

    In this episode of The Latin Prayer Podcast, we read Meditation Number One from St. Alphonsus Liguori’s Octave of Corpus Christi: “The Love of Jesus in the Most Holy Sacrament.” This short Eucharistic meditation reflects on the institution of the Blessed Sacrament, the presence of Christ in the tabernacle, and the call to adore Him with faith, gratitude, and love.

    Although this meditation belongs to the Octave of Corpus Christi, it can be prayed and reflected upon at any time of the year. It is especially fitting for Eucharistic adoration, visits to the Blessed Sacrament, devotion to the Sacred Heart of Jesus, and meditation before the tabernacle.

    In this episode:
    00:00 Welcome and introduction to St. Alphonsus Liguori
    00:20 Meditation from the Octave of Corpus Christi
    00:38 The Love of Jesus in the Most Holy Sacrament
    01:12 Jesus remains with us in the Blessed Sacrament
    01:48 Behold Him on so many altars
    02:28 Visiting Our Lord in the Most Holy Sacrament
    02:54 Affections and prayers
    03:35 Reparation for ingratitude and love of Jesus
    04:10 Prayer to love and please Our Lord
    04:35 Reflection on Eucharistic devotion today
    05:05 Invitation to share devotional practices
    05:24 Support and closing blessing

    Learn the Latin of Scripture on Church Authority | YT Catechesis (Audio Only)

    17/04/2026 | 7 mins.
    Learn the Latin of Scripture on Church Authority | Acts 20:28, Hebrews 5:4, Titus 1:5

    Learn the Latin of Scripture and see what it reveals about authority in Christ’s Church. In this episode, we examine key Latin verbs from three passages, Acts 20:28, Hebrews 5:4, and Titus 1:5, to understand how sacred office is given, not taken.

    This episode is a Scripture-focused catechesis using the Latin text to show:
    - How the Holy Spirit “placed” overseers (Latin verb examined in context)
    - Why “no one takes this honour to himself”
    - What it means to be “appointed” to office

    The Latin is explained line by line with attention to grammar and meaning, so you can see why self-appointment is not envisioned in these texts.

    If you value this style of learning, consider supporting the work and getting access to deeper formation and resources on Patreon (linked below).


    In the Patreon-only deep dive, we explore how the earliest Christians recognized and spoke about this New Eve typology long before the Reformation. Find it on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/c/thelatinprayerpodcast

    Welcome back to another episode of YouTube Catechesis, where we look to scripture for corroboration on the titulos languages. Pontius Pilate inscribed "jesus christ" on the cross in "biblical hebrew", "koine greek", and Latin, highlighting their sacred use. This episode emphasizes the grammatical precision of these ancient languages, offering insights for "language learning" and a deeper understanding of "new testament" contexts.

About The Latin Prayer Podcast
We are living in difficult times, both in the Church and in the world. Now more than ever, ordinary Catholics must fight for the salvation of souls and personal sanctity. Latin is the universal language of the Church, made holy when it was nailed to the Cross with Christ (John 19:19–20). It connects us to the worship of Heaven and strengthens our prayers. In 2017, I wanted to pray the Rosary in Latin but couldn’t find a podcast to follow. So I made one. It has since grown into a full library of Rosaries, Litanies, Chaplets, and other traditional prayers. I’ve also created Latin learning guides and printable resources, available through Patreon, to help you pray with clarity and confidence, whether on your own or with your family. This is about restoring Catholic prayer, reclaiming sacred tradition, and forming a movement of families praying daily in Latin for the salvation of souls and the renewal of Holy Mother Church.
