"Your Faith Anew!"
Your Faith Anew! exists to help souls grow in their knowledge of the Catholic Faith, strive to remain in a state of grace, and encounter the transforming joy of the Gospel. Its mission is simple yet eternal: to save souls, glorify God, and become saints.
Hosted by David Russell, this daily reflection podcast draws deeply from Sacred Scripture, the Catechism of the Catholic Church, and the writings of the Servant of God, Luisa Piccarreta—especially The Book of Heaven—guiding listeners into a deeper understanding of living in the Divine Will.
David is the author of four spiritually rich works: Magi Theology: The Essence of Illusion, The Little Magician – Discovers Bigger and Better, Our Pilgrimage with the Pilgrim Virgin, and his newest release, Our Mother in the Divine Will. With a lifelong fascination for the mystical, David discovered a profound connection between the art of illusion and deeper spiritual realities—an insight that inspired both his theological and children’s writings. His work Magi Theology received both the Nihil Obstat and Imprimatur from the Diocese of Knoxville.
In 2010, David was introduced to the writings of Luisa Piccarreta, which deeply resonated with his own spiritual insights. This encounter helped shape the foundation of his ministry.
In 2017, he founded the Your Faith Anew! prayer and study group to help Catholics rediscover and fall in love with their Faith. At the heart of his message is this conviction:
“The Catholic Faith prepares us to receive the Gift of Living in the Divine Will—and this Gift enables us to live our Faith in a divine manner most pleasing to God.”
Join us daily as we seek not only to understand our Faith—but to live it fully, joyfully, and in union with the Divine Will.

Luisa writes,
Finding myself outside of myself, I went in search of my most sweet Jesus,
and while going around, I saw Him in the arms of the Queen Mother. Tired as I was, all daring, I almost snatched Him, and I took Him in my arms, telling Him: ‘My Love, is this your promise that You would not leave me, when in the past days You have barely come, if at all?’ And He: “My daughter, I was with you; only, you have not seen Me with clarity. Had your desires been so ardent as to burn the veil that prevented you from seeing Me, you would certainly have seen Me.” Then, as though wanting to give me an exhortation, He added: “You must be not only upright, but just. Into Justice enters loving Me, praising Me, glorifying Me, thanking Me, blessing Me, repairing Me, adoring Me, not only for oneself, but for all other creatures. These are rights of Justice which I demand from each creature, and which are due to Me as Creator, and one who denies to Me even one of these rights, can never be called just. Therefore, think about fulfilling your duty of justice, for in Justice you will find the beginning, the means and the end of sanctity.”

SPEAKER_02Welcome. This is David Russell and Your Faith Anew, Daily Reflections Guiding You to Live in the Divine Will. Today's reflection is from the Book of Heaven by the servant of God Louisa Picaretta, March 27, 1902, volume four. Let us begin in the will and name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen. Lord Jesus, give us hearts that burn with love for you, that no veil may prevent us from seeing your presence. Teach us the justice that is due to you, that in every act we may love, praise, glorify, thank, bless, repair, and adore you for ourselves and for all. May our lives become a continuous offering in your divine will. Amen. Saint Matthew writes in the gospel according to Matthew, chapter twenty two, verses thirty seven thirty eight. You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind. This is the great and first commandment. The catechism of the Catholic Church teaches in paragraph twenty six twenty eight. Adoration is the first attitude of man acknowledging that he is a creature before his creator. It exalts the greatness of the Lord who made us, and the almighty power of the Savior who sets us free from evil. Adoration is homage of the Spirit to the King of Gory. Respectful silence in the presence of the ever greater God. This teaching reminds us that justice toward God begins with recognizing who He is and giving Him what is rightfully His through acts of love, praise, and adoration.

SPEAKER_02Finding myself outside of myself, I went in search of my most sweet Jesus. And while going around, I saw him in the arms of the Queen Mother. Tired as I was, all daring, I almost snatched him, and I took him in my arms, telling him My love, is this your promise that you would not leave me? When in the past days you have barely come, if at all. And he My daughter, I was with you, only you have not seen me with clarity. Had your desires been so ardent as to burn the veil that prevented you from seeing me, you would certainly have seen me. Then, as though wanting to give me an exhortation, he added, You must be not only upright, but just. Into justice enters loving me, praising me, glorifying me, thanking me, blessing me, repairing me, adoring me, not only for oneself, but for all other creatures. These are rights of justice which I demand from each creature, and which are due to me as creator. And one who denies to me even one of these rights can never be called just. Therefore, think about fulfilling your duty of justice, for in justice you will find the beginning, the means, and the end of sanctity. In this powerful teaching, Jesus reveals something that many overlook. Justice is not only about fairness toward others, it is first about giving God what is due to him, and what is due to him is everything. We often think of prayer as optional, or praise is something we do when we feel inspired. But Jesus presents these acts loving, praising, glorifying, thanking, blessing, repairing, adoring, not as optional devotions, but as obligations of justice. These are the rightful honors owed to God as our Creator. And not only for ourselves, but for all creatures. This is where the divine will opens something profound. When we live in the divine will, our acts expand. Our love is no longer limited. When we say I adore you, it can be done in the name of all, repairing for all who do not adore him. Jesus also gives a key insight. The veil that prevented Louisa from seeing him was not his absence, but the lack of intensity in desire. When desire burns, it removes obstacles. So we are invited to ask ourselves, do I give God what is his due? Do I love him not only for myself but for all? Justice toward God becomes the foundation of sanctity, and in the divine will, that justice becomes perfect, universal, and continuous.
SPEAKER_01Let us pray.
SPEAKER_02O Lord, my creator and my God, I acknowledge that everything I am and everything I have belongs to you. I adore you, I love you, I praise you, I glorify you, I thank you, I bless you, I repair and offer you my acts for all souls. Jesus, increase my desire for you, that every veil may be burned away, and I may see you clearly in every moment. In your divine will, I unite my heart to yours, and I give you the justice that is your due, not only for myself, but for all creatures, past, present, and future. Make my life one continuous act of love and adoration.
SPEAKER_01Amen.
SPEAKER_02Thank you for joining your faith anew today. Let this truth remain in your heart. Justice toward God is the foundation of holiness. Give him what is his your love, your praise, your thanksgiving, and do it for all. Until tomorrow, stay in his will, and your faith will be made anew.
