ECM 5 Minute Maxims for Men - Stop Chasing Your Dreams Start Following Jesus

Reflection: As a carpenter, Joseph provided for the Holy Family through honest labor. Justice in heroic virtue means fair dealings and generosity, imitating God's eternal law. Pope Pius XII entrusted youth to Joseph for such steadfast care. Daily Challenge: Perform an act of generous giving, like tithing extra or helping a neighbor in need. Prayer: St. Joseph, provider of Nazareth, inspire my work to honor God and support others.(Make a challenge to another man to join you.)

Day 3 Practicing Just Provision | Kevin O'Brien

<a href="www.TheBeatiDudes.com%20">www.TheBeatiDudes.com</a> The BeatiDudes welcome back John Cannon, Founder of SENT Ventures, for this bonus episode.After early career success, John joined the Carmelite order and lived a contemplative, cloistered life of prayer and study. While researching church renewal movements, John realized that one of the most powerful tools for renewal is entrepreneurship. This led John to discern out of the monastery and into the business world to build a community that supports Catholic entrepreneurs and builders.In this episode, the Dudes reflect on the components of authentic Christian fraternity before diving into a discussion on the social teachings of the Church for business. Many of the SENT Ventures members are leading by or seeking to learn how to infuse dignity, solidarity, justice, and just wages into their organizations. During the "Blessed are the Joke Makers" game, John joins the BeatiDudes in answering the question "_________ led me to _________" as a fire and brimstone preacher. You won't want to miss his surprising answer. The show is closed out with another "reverse Simpsons" moment during which the Dudes play a classic improv game with a new name, "Doctor of The Church Know-It-All." <h2>Our Partners:</h2><a href="http://www.joinsolidarity.com/">Solidarity HealthShare</a><a href="https://sockreligious.com/pages/beatidudes">Sock Religious (10% Discount)</a><a href="https://decidedexcellence.com/">Decided Excellence</a><a href="https://spokestreet.com/">Spoke Street Media</a><a href="https://divinecomedyimprov.com/">Divine Comedy</a><a href="https://www.undivided.life/">Undivided Life</a><h2>Follow (our guest):</h2><h2>Follow The BeatiDudes:</h2><a href="https://www.undivided.life/podcasts">BeatiDudes Website</a><a href="https://www.linkedin.com/company/90739902/admin/">LinkedIn</a><a href="https://www.facebook.com/TheBeatiDudesPodcast">Facebook</a><a href="https://www.instagram.com/beatidudes/">Instagram</a><a href="https://twitter.com/The_BeatiDudes">Twitter</a><a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/schiefelbein/">Jeff Schiefelbein on LinkedIn</a><h2>BeatiDudes Theme Song and Music By</h2><a href="https://thepencilbureau.com/">The Pencil Bureau</a> <h2>Great resources from this show</h2><a href="https://www.amazon.com/True-Leadership-Habiger-Institute-Catholic/dp/1944418717">True Leadership </a>book <a href="https://cas.stthomas.edu/_media-library/_documents/catholic-studies/vocation-of-the-business-leader.pdf">The Vocation of the Business Leader</a>

In a recent talk, Bishop Barron presented on the importance of not dumbing down the faith as we engage in religious education. Young people enjoy asking about and discussing the big questions, from God's existence, to how to be a good and moral person, to the problem of suffering. A disconnect takes place when we meet these intellectual questions with watered-down catechesis. Instead, we must remember the central teachings of Christianity. We must present the fullness of truth, the reality of the Incarnation, and the good news of grace.

WOF 313: Not Dumbing Down the Faith

In this conversation, Jesús Canchola Sánchez shares his journey of faith and LGBTQ identity, cultural identity, and artistic expression. He discusses the complexities of growing up in a Mexican Catholic household, navigating political ideologies, and exploring personal relationships. Throughout his journey, he reflects on the importance of family, community, and the role of media in shaping perceptions of faith. Ultimately, he emphasizes the power of storytelling as a means to connect with others and inspire hope, culminating in the release of his debut novel, 'Escape from Natura Meta.'SHOWNOTES:<a href="https://calendly.com/url?q=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.jesuscancholasanchez.com%2F&amp;user_uuid=ba5d74e2-67ac-470e-a2ad-2f741ded71b6&amp;stage=1&amp;hmac=b5aa8698ae14886c7300b969d0115fc19a1f1149ab183371ea6bfc34b107cac0" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.jesuscancholasanchez.com/</a><a href="https://calendly.com/url?q=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.amazon.com%2FEscape-Natura-Jes%25C3%25BAs-Canchola-S%25C3%25A1nchez%2Fdp%2FB0DZBH6P4M&amp;user_uuid=ba5d74e2-67ac-470e-a2ad-2f741ded71b6&amp;stage=1&amp;hmac=9af4c15ae9524827a2f83e1c3d4a683a195b97bf9a46237b52879f62c2e1193f" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.amazon.com/Escape-Natura-Jes%C3%BAs-Canchola-S%C3%A1nchez/dp/B0DZBH6P4M</a>

From Desire & Distraction to Devotion & Divine Art | Jesús Canchola Sánchez

Today we discuss a recent article by Tim Keller, the popular Protestant pastor, titled <a href= "https://www.cardus.ca/comment/article/the-fading-of-forgiveness/"> "The Fading of Forgiveness: Tracing the Disappearance of the Thing We Need Most"</a>. Why are people increasingly skeptical about forgiveness? Keller proposes two reasons: a therapeutic culture, and religion without grace. A listener asks, how did God create the universe if not from potentiality?

WOF 296: The Fading of Forgiveness

The BeatiDudes continue their conversation with Kurt Klement, a seasoned Catholic leader passionate about evangelization, parish renewal, and servant leadership. If Monday’s episode laid the groundwork for rethinking how we “do church,” this one explores how to live leadership in ministry, the workplace, and family life.
 
Kurt shares his unexpected journey from a self-described “easygoing floater” to a dynamic leader responsible for thousands of teens, volunteers, and parishioners. But more than just a story of rising through the ranks, Kurt opens up about the interior transformation required to lead with impact and how learning to care about others' experience of you is essential to becoming the kind of leader God calls us to be.
 
Through hilarious banter between Paul Kolker, Nick Bezner, Jeff Schiefelbein, and Kurt Klement (yes, there’s a Seraphim facepalm reference), as well as profound spiritual insight and practical examples, this episode delves into what authentic leadership looks like when grounded in humility, curiosity, and intentional accompaniment.
 
Key Takeaways:
•	Why impact matters more than intention in leadership
•	The difference between positional power and influence
•	How Catholic Social Teaching offers a blueprint for modern leadership
•	What it means to empower others as “hero-makers” rather than heroes
•	Why weekly one-on-ones might be the most transformative tool in ministry or business

Don’t Be the Hero, Lead Like Christ | Kurt Klement | Episode #240

Reflection: Joseph discerned God's messages wisely, avoiding rashness. Prudence, heroic when aided by divine counsel, guides actions toward eternal goods. Daily Challenge: Pray before a major decision today; seek advice from a trusted spiritual mentor. Prayer: St. Joseph, prudent guardian, grant me clarity to choose wisely.

Day 5 Prudence in Decision-Making | Jimmy Dee

Episode Overview:In this episode of The Catholic Man Show, hosts Adam Minihan and David Niles dive into a lighthearted yet profound discussion about the phrase "killing two birds with one stone," the joys and challenges of high school reunions, and a deep exploration of friendship—both human and divine. The episode centers on John 15:14-15, where Jesus calls His disciples friends, not servants, offering a transformative perspective on what it means to live in communion with Christ. A powerful confession experience ties the conversation together, emphasizing the shift from doing things for God to doing them with Him.Key Discussion Points:<ul><li>Opening Banter (00:00:16 - 00:04:55): Adam and David humorously debate the origins and modern misuse of the phrase "killing two birds with one stone," referencing historical and biblical imagery like David and Goliath, and even a viral video of Nolan Ryan hitting a bird with a baseball.</li><li>Life Updates (00:05:00 - 00:11:39): David shares his excitement for an upcoming family reunion in Wyoming, while Adam talks about his son Leo’s second-place finish in mutton busting at a local rodeo and his anticipation for a 20-year high school reunion, sparking a funny reflection on aging and pride.</li><li>Sponsorship Spotlight (00:12:00 - 00:13:15): The hosts highlight their long-time sponsor, Select International Tours, encouraging listeners to explore pilgrimage opportunities at <a href="https://selectinternationaltours.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">selectinternationaltours.com</a> and join their upcoming trip to Italy in October.</li><li>What We’re Drinking (00:13:29 - 00:15:47): Adam and David enjoy The Sassenach, a blended Scotch whiskey with a Gaelic name meaning "outsider" or "stranger." They praise its Highland-like flavor and art deco bottle, likening it to a Mad Men-style decanter.</li><li>Literature and Reading (00:16:46 - 00:20:43): David discusses reading G.K. Chesterton’s Man Alive, recommended by Monsignor Gallus, a Chesterton scholar, and touches on Plato’s The Republic. The hosts reflect on Chesterton’s whimsical style and the influence of classical works on Christian thought.</li><li>Main Topic: Friendship with Christ (00:22:08 - 00:58:51):</li><li>Biblical Foundation: Adam introduces John 15:14-15, where Jesus says, “You are my friends if you keep what I command you. No longer do I call you servants… but I have called you friends.” This passage sets the stage for a discussion on authentic friendship.</li><li>Philosophical Insights: Drawing from Aristotle’s Nicomachean Ethics (Books 8-10), the hosts explore his three types of friendship—pleasure, utility, and authentic (virtuous) friendship. Aristotle views authentic friendship as the highest moral achievement, impossible without virtue, as vice renders true friendship unattainable.</li><li>Christian Perspective: The discussion connects Aristotle’s ideas to Christian theology, with references to Augustine, Aquinas, and Cicero. Aquinas describes charity as the highest form of friendship, requiring mutual love, willing the good of the other, and a shared life—mirrored in Christ’s relationship with His disciples.</li><li>Old vs. New Covenant: The hosts contrast the Old Covenant’s servanthood (e.g., Abraham obeying without full understanding) with the New Covenant’s friendship, where Christ shares divine knowledge, inviting us into intimacy and communion.</li><li>Confession Insight: Adam shares a transformative moment from confession, where a priest challenged his mentality of doing things for God, urging him to focus on doing things with God. This shift reframes Christian life as a relationship of friendship, not obligation, aligning with John 15’s message.</li><li>Communion of Saints: The episode explores how the communion of saints reflects perfect friendship, unhindered by human vice, and how Christ’s infinite love desires this communion with us.</li><li>Practical Takeaway: The hosts encourage listeners to reflect on John 15:9-17 in adoration, emphasizing that God doesn’t need our works but desires our companionship. This perspective relieves the pressure of performance and combats pride, fostering a deeper relationship with Christ.</li></ul> Events and Announcements:<ul><li>Catholic Man Show Campout: Scheduled for the last Saturday in September at Clear Creek Abbey. Sign-ups open in August, with new activities planned for this milestone event (approximately the 10th annual campout).</li><li>Pilgrimage Opportunity: Join Adam and David in Italy this October with Father Stuart Kravcor. Visit <a href="https://selectinternationaltours.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">selectinternationaltours.com</a> for details.</li></ul> Resources Mentioned:<ul><li>Scripture: John 15:9-17, particularly verses 14-15.</li><li>Books: </li><li>G.K. Chesterton’s Man Alive</li><li>Plato’s The Republic</li><li>Aristotle’s Nicomachean Ethics (Books 8-10)</li><li>Ignatius Study Bible</li><li>Sponsorship: Select International Tours (<a href="https://selectinternationaltours.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">selectinternationaltours.com</a>)</li><li>Social Media: Check Adam’s Facebook for a video of his son Leo’s mutton busting performance.</li></ul> Quotes to Ponder:<ul><li>“You are my friends if you keep what I command you. No longer do I call you servants… but I have called you friends.” – John 15:14-15</li><li>“The Lord doesn’t need anything from you… You have to start thinking about doing things with the Lord.” – Priest in confession</li><li>“Friendship is the point of the Christian life.” – David Niles</li><li>“Charity is the highest form of friendship.” – St. Thomas Aquinas</li></ul> Call to Action:<ul><li>Reflect on John 15:9-17 in prayer or adoration to deepen your understanding of friendship with Christ.</li><li>Sign up for the Catholic Man Show Campout at Clear Creek Abbey in September.</li><li>Explore pilgrimage opportunities with Select International Tours.</li></ul> Share this episode with friends to spark conversations about authentic friendship and faith.

Carnivore Diet Got Me Off ALL MY MEDS! (Cameron Fradd) | Ep. 442

To solve any problem, we must first understand the situation and the more we can discern the causes, the more effectively we can identify a solution. Today's guest has raised and spent 20 million dollars seeking to know the cause for the decline of Christianity, specifically church attendance and open affiliation, in the West. Once discovered, he created a program that in only 3 years, across the entire city of Jacksonville, FL drove the divorce rate down by 24%. In addition, the city saw an increase of marital health, family stability, and church engagement. I am joined by J.P. De Gance to learn all about this study, his findings, and the changes that can occur with the work he is doing. We give a clear call to action to all listeners about what they can do to be a part of the solution.

St. Augustine: "Christians are not spared suffering, indeed they must suffer a little more, because to live the faith expresses the courage to face in greater depth the problems that life and history present." &nbsp;

How Sacrifice Broke An Addiction and Led to the Catholic Church

Session 1: On Pilgrimage: Walking with Father Kapaun
“How many times does not Holy Mother Church tell us that our life on this earth is a journey? This earth is not our lasting home. God created us for a higher, a much more perfect home, our home in heaven with the joy of God.” - Servant of God Emil Kapaun

Each year at the beginning of summer hundreds of pilgrims walk 60 miles in the plains of Kansas to the hometown of Servant of God Emil Kapaun. They do it not only to remember the heroic Catholic priest and Army chaplain who is on the path to sainthood, but to discover how they can better continue on their own path to sainthood. Will you answer the Lord’s call to journey with us towards heaven?

To learn more about the Father Kapaun Pilgrimage or to join us, visit www.kapaunsmen.com/pilgrimage (31 minutes)

Former Methodist Pastor Converts to Catholicism | Guest Keith Nester

Johnny Kuplack is running across America for God. Literally.Johnny popped into The BeatiDudes studio during the Via Magna, a pilgrimage during which he runs 35 miles daily for 100 consecutive days, while living out of a campervan on funds donated by like-minded Christians. His journey began on January 18th as he exited the Pacific Ocean, dried off, and started his first run. The pilgrimage will end at the shrine of the North American Martyrs on Divine Mercy Sunday.Having logged 25 miles for the day with 10 more to go, Johnny goes deep with Paul Kolker, Nick Bezner, and Jeff Schiefelbein at the Tiny Table and brings the truth that men need to hear. The pilgrimage raises awareness about Sebaste, a nonprofit that Johnny and his friend Jeremy launched to build faith, virtue, and leadership among men. Through their work in various institutions, schools, and leadership roles, founders Johnny and Jeremy realized that masculine identity in the modern age is at a crisis point. The idea of what a man should be is subject to distortion, misrepresentation, and explicit attack.To answer this need, Jeremy and Johnny created Sebaste. They started mentoring young men in the heart of the desert of New Mexico - a place of challenge, silence, and transformative exposure.Learn more about <a href="https://www.sebaste.org/">Sebaste</a> <h2>Our Partners:</h2><a href="https://sockreligious.com/pages/beatidudes">Sock Religious (10% Discount)</a><a href="https://learnmore.solidarityhealthshare.org/beatidudes/?utm_source=podcast&amp;utm_campaign=BeatiDudes&amp;utm_content=why_solidarity">Solidarity HealthShare</a><a href="https://aquinaswealth.com/">Aquinas Wealth Advisors</a><a href="https://www.corexpeditions.org/upcoming-trips">COR Expeditions - Upcoming Trips</a><a href="https://www.lucidprivateoffices.com/">Lucid Private Office</a><a href="https://divinecomedyimprov.com/">Divine Comedy</a><a href="https://www.undivided.life/">Undivided Life</a><h2>Follow The BeatiDudes:</h2><a href="https://www.undivided.life/podcasts">BeatiDudes Website</a><a href="https://www.linkedin.com/company/90739902/admin/">LinkedIn</a><a href="https://www.facebook.com/TheBeatiDudesPodcast">Facebook</a><a href="https://www.instagram.com/beatidudes/">Instagram</a><a href="https://twitter.com/The_BeatiDudes">Twitter</a><a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/schiefelbein/">Jeff Schiefelbein on LinkedIn</a>BeatiDudes Theme Song and Music By<a href="https://thepencilbureau.com/">The Pencil Bureau</a> <a href="https://www.davemooremusic.com/">Dave Moore Music</a>

The Journey of a Deacon: From Academia to Politics

They discuss Father Andrew&#39;s journey from academia to politics, his work in promoting religious freedom, and the challenges of pluralism and moral relativism in contemporary society.

Season 5 Cold Opener MashUp | Episode 286

We all deal with negative thoughts, but how we handle them makes all the difference.
Join John and Victor in the pew this week as they discuss the power of preaching truth to yourself during moments of doubt. When you face negative self-talk head-on and learn to parry those attacks, it can lead to true spiritual resilience. Life isn’t easy, but we are called to face each challenge with strength and trust in the Lord. Speak truth to yourself and keep moving forward.

Preaching the Truth To Yourself

What if evangelization was this easy? What if changing a life didn&rsquo;t require a theology degree, a stage, or the perfect words &mdash; just courage, kindness, and one small step?
In this episode, we unpack simple, low-risk ways ordinary men can live out their faith in everyday moments. From asking a waitress if she needs prayer&hellip; to handing someone a small reminder of Jesus&hellip; to inviting a friend to a men&rsquo;s conference&hellip; you&rsquo;ll discover how small acts of boldness can spark eternal impact.
We confront the reality of the Catholic man crisis &mdash; men fading from leadership in their homes and faith lives &mdash; and explore how authentic friendship, visible faith, and stepping over the &ldquo;chicken line&rdquo; can rebuild brotherhood.
You&rsquo;ll hear powerful real-life stories: prayers answered in restaurants, unexpected friendships formed, and seeds planted that continued growing long after the moment passed.
Evangelization doesn&rsquo;t have to be awkward, aggressive, or complicated. It&rsquo;s about caring first. It&rsquo;s about modeling Christ. It&rsquo;s about trusting that God does the heavy lifting.
What if the next conversation you have could change someone&rsquo;s eternity?

4 Things Women Hate

What does it actually mean to be a man of God today?

In this episode of Just a Guy in the Pew, John Edwards sits down with Pete Burak, Vice President of Renewal Ministries and author of the brand new book, A Man on Purpose: 10 Rules of Life from a Faithful Father. They dive into the growing crisis of masculinity, the loss of identity and purpose for men, and the need for authentic Christian manhood.

Pete shares personal stories about his father, the lessons that shaped his life, and the moment that inspired him to write the book. At the center of it all is a call to live with purpose, courage, and a deep relationship with Jesus Christ.

A Man on Purpose with Pete Burak

St Paul instructs us to give thanks in all that we do. But is that really possible? In this special Thanksgiving episode, Join us in the pew to reflect on how even during the times of pain and turmoil, we are called to give thanks. Gratitude is not just a feeling, it is a posture grounded in our identity as God’s beloved children.

Even when life feels overwhelming, gratitude softens the heart, strengthens relationships, and opens us to God’s grace.

This Thanksgiving, take a moment to recognize God working for good, even in the hardest seasons of life.

Please say a prayer for John's father, Don.

Give Thanks In All Circumstances

This week we welcome Devin Schadt into the pew to discuss the importance of authentic fatherhood, and how embracing the example of St. Joseph can and will transform your life.

Devin Schadt is the co-founder of The Fathers of St. Joseph, an apostolate dedicated to the renewal of authentic fatherhood. He is also a host on The Catholic Gentleman podcast. Devin reflects on his faith journey, describing his wayward youth and how God reached him at his lowest point. He explains the four pillars of Josephian Fatherhood—silence, woman, children, and charitable authority—and how they are invaluable tools of sanctity for all fathers and husbands.

Like St. Joseph with Devin Schadt

So many men live with a quiet fear that who they really are will not be accepted. In this episode, John and Victor talk openly about how that fear shows up in two ways: changing ourselves to fit in, or pulling away so no one gets close enough to reject us.
If you’ve ever felt pressure to be someone you’re not, this conversation will help you take the next steps towards remembering we are beloved children of God.
