Avoiding Babylon

Avoiding Babylon Crew

Avoiding Babylon was started during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic. During these difficult and dark days, when most of us were isolated from family, friends, our parishes, and even the Sacraments themselves, this channel was started as a statement of standing against the tyrannical mandates that many of us were living under. Since those early days, this channel has morphed into an amazing community of friends…no…more than friends…Christian brothers and sisters…who have grown in joy and

A husband posts that his wife “was formerly promiscuous” and he “was a virgin,” and somehow we’re all expected to nod along like it’s spiritual content. That moment opens a bigger problem we can’t ignore: testimony culture is starting to look like confession-as-branding, where past sin becomes a credential and conversion becomes a content strategy. ...

So can one truly reverent one that finally makes the Catholic faith click. We sit down with Catholic Esquire to trace the path a lot of serious Catholics have quietly taken: from lukewarm Novus Ordo parish life, to apologetics and “doing all the programs,” to the shock of realizing how much the liturgy forms wh...

Christian Zionism sounds “Bible based” until you actually follow the Bible’s own rules for reading the Bible. We start with the claim that many Christians were taught: God still has a separate covenant with Israel, modern return to the land fulfills prophecy, and end times can’t happen without it. Then we put that claim under the light of the New Te...

Something feels different lately, and we can’t be the only ones noticing it. When Joe Rogan starts talking about church, praising the teachings of Jesus, and asking out loud “who was Jesus Christ?”, that’s not just another trending clip. It’s a signal that the old certainty of the new atheist era is cracking, and millions of people are suddenly will...

A strange AI intro sets the tone for a conversation about power, myth, and the cracks running through our civilization. We start with Tucker’s claim that some believers try to force God’s hand, and that secular boosters dream of a tech-ruled future. From there we pull the lens wider: the Bretton Woods order is threadbare, NATO expectations are stale...

Headlines, threats, and a thumbnail dust-up cracked open a bigger story: who decides what Catholics are allowed to hear? We walk through a sponsor-driven cancellation, the temptation to water down truth for access, and why the better answer is to build a new, open ecosystem where courage—not clout—sets the tone. We get specific about the “woman que...

If you could summarize the end times in three words, here’s our pick: Restrain. Release. Return. We open Scripture with the Fathers and track Revelation 20 as a map of history—Satan bound so the nations can be evangelized, the saints reigning as the apostolic Church governs, and a brief release that surrounds the camp of the saints before the Lord r...

What if the greatest danger to your soul isn’t failure but the pride that follows success? We open Jeremiah 17 and the parable of the rich man and Lazarus to trace a stark contrast: dryness for those who trust in themselves and living water for those who root their hope in God. From there, we step into a Carmelite meditation on humility that reframe...

When the urge to fix everything by ourselves runs hot, the Scriptures offer a better way. We open with Esther’s desperate prayer, where trust replaces leverage, and follow Jesus on the road to Jerusalem as he overturns our ideas of power: greatness is service, honor is sacrifice, and confidence is born from dependence on the Father. We bring those ...

What if your spiritual life looks busy on the outside but runs on empty within? Today we walk through Elijah and the widow, where a last handful of meal turns into daily bread, and we sit with Jesus’ words in Matthew 23 that challenge our craving for status, titles, and the appearance of holiness. The throughline is humility: the quiet reordering th...

We read Daniel 9 and John 8, then sit with a demanding truth from Divine Intimacy: humility is not a mood or a vibe; it’s the foundation that lets charity stand. If love is the house, humility is the bedrock—and without it, even our best intentions warp into self-reliance. We talk honestly about what that looks like in modern life. Creating content...

A bright cloud, a trembling heart, and a voice that still calls us by name: the Second Sunday of Lent leads us up Tabor to glimpse what grace intends to complete. We read the traditional Mass texts and sit with the Transfiguration, then follow the thread back into ordinary life where sanctification looks like chastity, fairness, and fidelity when no...

A hard headline at dawn and a holy invitation at hand: we step into Ember Saturday with fasting, prayer, and a clear-eyed look at how grace meets a restless world. We keep the focus tight—covenant fidelity in Deuteronomy, the lived texture of Christian charity in First Thessalonians, and the mountain light of Matthew’s Transfiguration—then move into...

Ready for a reset that goes deeper than giving up dessert? We take Ember Friday as a clarifying lens on Lent: why the season spans 46 calendar days, how abstinence and fasting work today, and why these practices still matter for real conversion. Then we open Ezekiel 18 and John 5 to trace a through line from personal responsibility to healing grace,...

What if the one obstacle to holiness isn’t scandalous sin but quiet hesitation—the elegant excuses that slip between intention and action? We open Scripture with Ezekiel’s hard clarity on personal responsibility and the Gospel scene where a marginalized mother refuses to let go until mercy answers. Those readings set a challenge: justice must be liv...

A cloud on Sinai, bread in the desert, and three days in the heart of the earth: today’s journey moves from spectacle to substance, asking what truly builds a life aflame with God.

A city trembles at Jesus entering Jerusalem, money changers scatter, and prayer reclaims the Temple—then Isaiah reminds us that God’s word never returns empty. That collision of images frames a hard truth we often dodge: we grieve material losses faster than we grieve the loss of grace. We walk through Isaiah 55 and Matthew 21 before opening Divine ...
