From American Catholic Radio

American Catholic Radio (ACR) is designed to help you know your faith, so you can grow in your faith. It’s a weekly half-hour of information and inspiration, in the popular style of the Franciscans. Each week’s ACR draws its inspiration from the liturgical season, current events, and enduring Catholic topics. Our goal is to be both timely and timeless. Here you’ll find the wisdom of the saints, the rich tradition of the Church’s liturgy and practice, moments of reflection, examples of the daily lived faith of modern Catholics, and the thoughts of contemporary Church leaders and thinkers–all presented in harmony with Church teaching. Each program is built around two extended interviews. Other segments offer continuing features.
