Saturdays with Sir Rolland

Greetings, young slayers! In today’s episode, Sir Rolland reflects on the incredible gift of creativity and how, being made in the image and likeness of God, we are called to reveal His goodness, truth, and beauty through our unique gifts and talents. Through a special poem written by Lady Hannah Grace, The Tournament of the Ages, we discover how stories, art, and imagination can bring glory to God. Whether you're an artist, musician, writer, or storyteller, remember that God can work through your creativity to make something beautiful.

Stay creative… and let God turn your gifts into...

Greetings, young slayers! In today’s Dragons Around the House adventure, Sir Rolland takes us to the theater for a special episode, Dragons Around the Theater! When Sir William discovers a lost raffle ticket, four dragons tempt him to put his own desires first. Through this simple act of honesty and generosity, we learn that doing the right thing isn't always about winning a prize, but about choosing virtue even when nobody is watching.

Stay honest… and slay the dragons by doing what is right, even when no one is watching!

Greetings, young slayers! In today’s episode, Sir Rolland celebrates Respect Life Month by reminding us that every human life is sacred, valuable, and worth living, from conception to natural death. Through Scripture, we discover seven powerful truths that defeat the lies of the seven deadly dragons: we are known, chosen, appreciated, cherished, protected, sacrificed for, and loved by God. Even through life's struggles and disappointments, we are reminded that our true home is in Heaven and that every life has meaning and purpose.

Stay grateful… and remind others how precious they are to God!

Greetings, young slayers! In today’s final episode of The Kenodox Letters, Sir Rolland reveals the enemy’s seventh and most dangerous strategy: Despair. Kenodox wants all his other tactics to wear us down until we lose hope and give up on God. But the greatest weapon of all is Love—the choice to love God and our neighbor even when life is difficult and the darkness feels overwhelming.

Keep loving… never lose hope, and remember: God is victorious!

Greetings, young slayers! In today’s episode of The Kenodox Letters, Sir Rolland reveals the enemy’s sixth strategy: Distraction. Kenodox wants to fill our lives with noise, busyness, and endless desires until we lose sight of our mission and slowly surrender our freedom. But through the virtue of Temperance, we learn to master our desires, say no to distractions, and freely choose what is good.

Stay temperate… don’t wait for tomorrow. Start slaying dragons today!

Greetings, young slayers! In today’s episode of The Kenodox Letters, Sir Rolland reveals the enemy’s fifth strategy: Division. Kenodox wants to turn families, friends, and communities against one another by making us keep score, hold grudges, and see our differences as reasons to fight. But through the virtue of Justice, we learn to stop asking, “What do I deserve?” and instead ask, “What do I owe God and my neighbor?”

Stay just… and build unity instead of division!

Greetings, young slayers! In today’s episode of The Kenodox Letters, Sir Rolland reveals the enemy’s fourth strategy: Deception. Kenodox wants us to become so attached to the good things of this world that we forget the One who gave them to us. Through the virtue of Wisdom, we learn to recognize what matters most, keep our eyes on Heaven, and never mistake the mud puddle for the ocean.

Stay wise… and don’t let the dragon deceive you from the greatest Good!

Greetings, young slayers! In today’s episode of The Kenodox Letters, Sir Rolland reveals the enemy’s third strategy: Discouragement. Through the example of St. Mother Teresa, we learn how the dragons try to steal our passion, weaken our spiritual lives, and convince us to give up when following God becomes difficult. But with the virtue of Courage, we can keep showing up, keep fighting, and never lose heart.

Stay courageous… and never let the dragons steal your heart!

Greetings, young slayers! In today’s episode of The Kenodox Letters, Sir Rolland reveals the enemy’s second strategy: Doubt. Kenodox wants us to question God’s love, doubt His plan, and compare ourselves to the world around us. But through the example of St. John the Baptist and the virtue of Faith, we learn to see ourselves as God sees us and trust the unique mission He has given each of us.

Stay faithful… and don’t let doubt distract you from God’s plan!

Greetings, young slayers! In today’s episode of The Kenodox Letters, Sir Rolland reveals the first of the enemy’s seven strategies: Desolation. Kenodox wants us to believe we are alone, forgotten, and abandoned—but the weapon of Hope reminds us of the truth. We have a Father who loves us, a Mother who prays for us, and a Savior who will never abandon us.

Stay hopeful… and never believe the dragon’s lie that you are alone!

Greetings, young slayers! In today’s episode, Sir Rolland begins a brand-new series, The Kenodox Letters, inspired by C.S. Lewis’ The Screwtape Letters. On the Feast of the Assumption, we discover why Mary’s humility makes her so feared by the dragons and get our first secret glimpse into the enemy’s battle plans. By learning how the dragons seek to enslave us and steal our freedom, we can better recognize their lies, resist their tactics, and become stronger dragon slayers.

Stay humble… know your enemy, and slay dragons!

As the Knight of Light willingly enters the dragon’s lair, what appears to be the dragon’s greatest victory becomes its ultimate defeat.

Stay hopeful… and trust the victory of the Cross!

As Jesus is mocked, humiliated, and provoked to fight back, He shows us that true strength is found not in revenge, but in love.

Greetings, young slayers! In today’s episode, Sir Rolland begins the Sorrowful Mysteries of the Rosary with The Agony in the Garden. As Jesus prepares to face His greatest battle, we discover that true courage is not the absence of fear—it is trusting the Father even in the midst of it.

Stay courageous… and let the Holy Cross be your light!

Greetings, young slayers! In today’s episode, Sir Rolland reflects on the true meaning of freedom as we celebrate Independence Day. Through the wisdom of the Church, the Founding Fathers, and the story of salvation, we discover that real freedom is not the ability to do whatever we want—it is the power to choose what is good, true, and holy. When we use our free will to follow Christ, the King of Kings, we become truly free and courageous dragon slayers.

Stay courageous… and use your freedom to slay dragons!

Greetings, young slayers! In today’s Dragons Around the House adventure, Sir Rolland shares the tale of The Popped Balloon, submitted by Sir John-Patrick. When a beloved balloon meets an untimely end, a whole flock of dragons swoops in to turn a small disappointment into a major battle. Through forgiveness, gratitude, and keeping things in perspective, we learn that people are always more important than possessions—and that even a popped balloon can become an opportunity to grow in virtue.

Stay grateful… and slay the dragons hiding in little frustrations!

Greetings, young slayers! In today’s episode, Sir Rolland concludes The 7 P’s to Finding Peace in the Sacrament of Penance with the final P: Party! Through the Parable of the Prodigal Son, we discover that confession is not just about healing dragon wounds—it is about coming home to the Father and celebrating His mercy. From the banquet in the parable to the heavenly feast of the Eucharist, we are reminded that every confession is a reason for joy, gratitude, and celebration.

Stay joyful… and celebrate the mercy of God!

Greetings, young slayers! In today’s episode, Sir Rolland continues The 7 P’s to Finding Peace in the Sacrament of Penance with the sixth P: Penance. Through stories of broken windows, wise parents, and spiritual healing, we discover that penance is not a punishment—it is medicine for the soul. Just as a cast helps a broken arm heal, penance helps repair the damage caused by sin, strengthens us against future temptations, and helps us grow into the saints God created us to be.

Stay faithful… and let penance heal your dragon wounds!

When we pause to thank and praise God for His mercy, healing, and forgiveness, peace begins to fill our hearts and the dragons lose their hold.

Stay grateful… and praise the Lord who heals every dragon wound!

Greetings, young slayers! In today’s episode, Sir Rolland continues The 7 P’s to Receiving Peace in the Sacrament of Penance with the fourth P: Practice. Through the courageous witness of St. Joan of Arc and a step-by-step walkthrough of confession itself, we learn that holiness is not achieved in a single moment, but through returning to God again and again for healing and grace. Confession is not something to fear — it is a practice that strengthens us, restores us, and helps us keep fighting the good fight against the dragons.

Greetings, young slayers! In today’s episode, Sir Rolland continues The 7 P’s to Receiving Peace in the Sacrament of Penance with the third P: Prepare with Prayer. Through the image of dragon wounds, doctor visits, and watching game film, we learn that confession is not meant to be rushed or half-hearted. By slowing down, examining our conscience, and honestly bringing our wounds to God in prayer, we allow the Father to heal us, strengthen us, and prepare us to fight dragons with greater virtue.

Stay humble… and prepare with prayer!

Greetings, young slayers! In today’s episode, Sir Rolland continues The 7 P’s to Receiving Peace in the Sacrament of Penance with the second P: Parable.

Whether we wander far from the Father or quietly drift like the older brother, God’s mercy is always waiting to welcome us back with healing, forgiveness, and joy.

Stay hopeful… and come home to the Father!

Greetings, young slayers! In today’s episode, Sir Rolland begins a brand-new series on The 7 P’s to Receiving Peace in the Sacrament of Penance. Using the image of dragon wounds, splinters, and broken bones, we learn why confession is not just an obligation, but a powerful gift of healing and grace. By making a plan for regular confession and avoiding the extremes of scrupulosity and presumption, we prepare our souls to heal, grow stronger, and return to battle against the dragons.

Stay courageous… and receive the peace of Penance!

Greetings, young slayers! In today’s Dragons Around the House episode, Sir Rolland reflects on the life of St. Athanasius and the powerful truth that saints are made through great attitude and great effort. Through a relatable school scenario, we see how every dragon tries to influence how we respond to challenges—but we always have a choice. When we choose to try our best and trust God with the rest, we grow stronger, build virtue, and become the dragon slayers we are called to be.

Stay steady… and slay dragons with great attitude and effort!

Greetings, young slayers! In today’s episode, Sir Rolland reflects on the truth behind every great story: dragons are real… and they can be defeated. Inspired by St. Mark and the power of storytelling, we discover that the battle between good and evil is not just in books or movies — it’s the story we are living right now. Through Christ, the Knight of Light, we are given the grace to face our dragons and become saints in the greatest story ever told.

Stay courageous… and slay every dragon!

Greetings, young slayers! In today’s episode, Sir Rolland reveals the danger of the “invisible dragons.” The quiet lies that whisper we are unseen, unloved, or not enough. Through a relatable story and honest reflection, we learn how envy, pride, and wrath attack our identity from within. But when we turn to the truth of the Father’s love, those lies lose their power.

Stay grounded in truth… and slay the invisible dragons!

Through stories of hospitality, missionary work, and the adventure of sharing the faith, we are reminded that generosity is not just about giving things—it’s about opening our homes, our hearts, and our knowledge of Christ to others.

Greetings, young slayers!

When we focus on truth, practice mercy, and trust God with the results, pride loses its grip and grace multiplies our efforts.

In today’s episode, Sir Rolland celebrates the feast of St. Valentine (and Saints Cyril and Methodius) by revealing that salvation history is the greatest love story ever told.

When we choose the King over the dragons and practice the works of mercy, we step into the story and learn to love like Christ.

Stay humble… and slay the Red Dragon of Pride!

Stay faithful… and slay dragons with the light of Christ!
