How Relevant Radio Is Building Faith Behind Bars (Special Podcast Highlight)

Relevant Radio is all about "bringing Christ to the world through the media," and that includes reaching those in prison. The Big News? Relevant Radio has teamed up with Edovo , a nonprofit that provides digital education tools in prisons, to make Catholic content accessible to over 1,100 correctional facilities across the U.S. Here’s how it works: Inmates can access Relevant Radio’s content: like Fr. Rocky’s Eucharistic Encounters and The Saints Podcast , right on secure tablets provided through Edovo. In just one month, 25,000 sessions of Relevant Radio content were accessed by inmates. Though federal prisons aren’t on board yet , there’s hope this outreach will expand even further. Why does this matter? Because everyone deserves a shot at grace, even those who’ve lost their freedom. Patrick reminds us of Matthew 25 : “I was in prison, and you visited me.” Prison can be a dark, isolating place, and yet, God’s light can still break through the bars. Patrick shares a heart-touching letter from Michael , an inmate in New Jersey, who listens to Relevant Radio daily. Michael prays the Chaplet of Divine Mercy with Drew Mariani and joins in the Family Rosary Across America every evening. He even sent a handmade Christmas card to the team (with some seriously impressive cursive handwriting; Patrick was impressed!). Michael’s words say it all: “Relevant Radio has changed my life.” He and many others are finding community, hope, and a deeper relationship with Christ... right from their cells. So, next time you tune into Relevant Radio, say a prayer for those listening in the loneliest of places. Because God’s mercy knows no walls.
