Michael Acaldo, a Baton Rouge native and national leader with the Society of St Vincent de Paul, joins Paul Kolker, Nick Bezner, and Jeff Schiefelbein for an incredibly powerful conversation. The conversation opens with Jeff sharing a deeply personal story about attending the funeral of a five-year-old child, the overwhelming grief and unexpected joy he witnessed in a vibrant, faith-filled parish brimming with large families, and the way that experience sent him home with renewed gratitude for his own children. That vulnerable moment sets the tone for an episode that blends Cajun humor, Catholic culture, and a serious call to serve Christ in the poor.
Michael shares about growing up Catholic in Louisiana, where counties are called parishes and even the alligators feel sacramental. He describes powerful Eucharistic processions from the bayou to the streets of New York City. 
The Dudes dig into the heart of the St Vincent de Paul Society as a spiritual movement rather than just a social service agency. Michael traces the story from St Vincent de Paul and Blessed Frédéric Ozanam to modern free pharmacies, mini-loan programs that free people from predatory lending, and 90,000 Vincentians across 4,000 conferences who are hunting souls by seeing Christ in their neighbors in need. 
Along the way, there are puns about the bayou, improv-style commercials, and the beloved Beatitudes game “Blessed Are the Joke Makers.” Yet, the episode keeps circling back to one core truth: holiness looks like concrete acts of charity, done with humility and joy.

Answering the Call to Serve | Michael Acaldo | Episode #281

On the 1st Sunday of Advent, we welcome you on a journey that takes us through the beautiful intricacies of the Advent season. This episode is a call to prepare our hearts and minds for Christmas, a time of joy, peace, and divine love. We unwrap the liturgical nuances of Advent, from the absence of the Gloria to the donning of purple vestments. As we light each candle on the Advent wreath – symbols of hope, joy, peace, and love – we realize the deep significance of prayer, a divine dialogue, a response to God’s thirst for us. Drawing wisdom from saints and teachings from the Catechism of the Catholic Church, we delve into the origins of prayer, helping us deepen our communion with God during Advent. As we conclude this enlightening episode, we encourage you to intensify your focus on prayer during Advent, preparing your heart for the divine encounter. Is there a better way to await the Lord's coming? Like what you heard? Maybe you just enjoy reading James’s show notes?

Preparing for Advent: A Journey into Prayer and Watchfulness, A Homily with Father Dom

Artist and iconographer Garret Hines shares the winding, grace-filled journey that brought his family home to the Catholic faith. In this heartfelt and often humorous conversation with the BeatiDudes, Garret opens up about:
<ul>
 <li>How a retreat for men shattered his resistance to children and ignited a call to mission</li>
 <li>Moving his family to Southeast Asia and the spiritual abuse that sent them back to the States</li>
 <li>Wrestling with Catholic teaching, praying to the saints in secret, and
debating Father Mike Schmitz (in his head)</li>
 <li>Why the Eucharist was the hinge on which everything turned</li>
 <li>How discipline in art mirrors freedom in faith</li>
</ul>
Whether you’re an artist, a seeker, or simply curious about the mysterious
beauty of the Catholic faith, Garret’s story that he shares with Paul Kolker,
Nick Bezner, and Jeff Schiefelbein is an invitation to trust God with the leap of faith even when you can’t see the landing.

Marian Miracles - Our Lady of Lourdes: Miracles, Messages, and the Call to Catholic Men

Do any of you go to a men's group? Does your parish even have a men's group? Or maybe you do go but they just flick on a video made by somebody else and that's it? The video might pump you up for 1/2 a day and then it fades and nothing in your life changes. Now, don't get me wrong, I am not faulting the creators of these men's groups because there are some amazing ones out there. However, for the majority of men, this simply does not work. Think about it. If you are the lucky few who actually have a men's group, is it well attended? Think of all the men in your parish...what percentage are going? 10%? 20%? Men, we NEED fraternity. We NEED our brothers. We NEED a change. Step in John Edwards. If you don't know John, I invite you to check out episode 37 <a href="https://pdcn.co/e/www.buzzsprout.com/1766613/10343708-ep-37-interview-with-john-edwards-just-a-guy-in-the-pew-part-1-conversion.mp3?download=true" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">here</a>.

Ep 71 - The Fearless Heart: How Vulnerability Unleashes Your Superpower with John Edwards

Brothers, we live in an age of confusion. The world twists truth, waters down faith, and even distorts who Christ is. But this is nothing new. The Church has faced heresies before—falsehoods that threatened to shake the very foundation of Christianity. And one man, St. Cyril of Alexandria, refused to let the lies stand.In this episode, we dive deep into the life of a fearless defender of the faith. Cyril crushed one of the most dangerous heresies in history—the Nestorian heresy—which denied Mary as the Mother of God and distorted the truth about Christ’s divinity. His battle for truth is just as relevant today as it was in 431 AD.You will learn:  🔥 Why courage in defending the faith is non-negotiable for Catholic men.  🔥 What happens when we compromise on truth—and why Cyril never did.  🔥 How you, as a husband, father, and leader, can follow Cyril’s example to protect your home from spiritual corruption.Defending truth comes at a cost. Cyril was exiled, slandered, and relentlessly attacked. But he never wavered. Are you willing to do the same when your workplace, community, or even your own family pressures you to back down? If we are not ready to fight for truth, we will lose it.Powerful Quotes from This Episode<ol><li>“If we are not ready to fight for truth, what are we willing to fight for?”</li><li>“Men, we are the first line of defense in our homes. Let’s act like it.”</li><li>“Cyril did not shrink back when the faith was under attack. Neither can we.”</li></ol>One Key Takeaway for Men➡️ Be the warrior of truth in your home. St. Cyril defended Christ’s divinity with everything he had. Today, the battle may look different, but it’s just as real. Protect your family from spiritual poison—false teachings, moral compromise, and the relentless attacks against faith. Stand firm. Lead with boldness. No one else will do it for you.👉 If this episode challenged you, share it with a brother in Christ. Let’s build a generation of men who refuse to compromise on truth.Referenced in This Episode:<ul><li>Mystic Monk Coffee – Fuel your faith with every sip.

Sanctifying Saints - St. Cyril of Alexandria—The Defender of Truth

Day 33 of our Lenten journey with St. Joseph is upon us and we are just two days from Palm Sunday.  Feeling worn down? This episode’s for you. I’m diving into Pope Leo XIII’s 1889 encyclical, Quamquam Pluries, unpacking why St. Joseph’s intercession is our lifeline in tough times. Pope Leo saw faith fading, charity cooling, and the Church under attack. He urged Catholics to turn to St. Joseph, Mary’s spouse and guardian of Jesus, for divine help. Why him? Because the Word of God obeyed him, and that authority still shakes Satan. Today, I’m challenging you: What do you need to fast from? Look at your life—phone addiction, late nights, old sins creeping back? Satan’s not creative; he’s just observant, hitting your weak spots. Is it drawing me to Christ or pulling me away?  Men, we’re in a desert like Jesus before His ministry. Basics matter: sleep, food, water. Neglect those, and your spiritual foundation’s sand. Pope Leo reminds us the stakes are souls. Our Lady at Fatima said the final fight’s for the family. What’s distracting you from that mission? Identify it, fast from it today. Hit play for a reflection to realign your will with God’s. Products/References Mentioned:  <ul><li>Quamquam Pluries encyclical by Pope Leo XIII  </li><li>Fatima message from the Blessed Virgin Mary</li></ul>Powerful Quotes:  <ol><li>“The times we live in are scarcely less deplorable for the Christian religion than the worst days, which in time past were most full of misery to the Church.”  </li><li>“Satan and his demons, they’re not creative in their attacks… they just observe you very well and they remember.”  </li><li>“If you’re not taking care of yourself and your family, no matter what Satan is doing, you need to take care of yourself.”</li></ol>Key Takeaway: Fast from one distraction today—phone, a vice, anything pulling you from Christ. Start now; it’s your first step to strengthening your family against evil.  <a href="https://www.buzzsprout.com/twilio/text_messages/1766613/open_sms" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Send us a text</a> <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://buymeacoffee.com/tmc">Support the show</a>Please prayerfully consider supporting the podcast on our <a href="https://buymeacoffee.com/tmc" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Buy Me A Coffee </a>page. to help grow the show to reach as many men as possible!

Day 33 - Straight From The Pope's Hand; Exploring Quamquam Pluries with St. Joseph

Welcome to another homily from Father Dom from the 22nd Sunday in Ordinary Time! What if you could harness the power of scripture and truth to navigate the turbulent seas of life? Father Dom takes us through the trials of the great prophet Jeremiah, courageously speaking truth amidst chaos. He dives into the importance of being rooted in Christ and the audacity it demands to bring His fiery love and truth into the critical conversations on abortion, contraception, marriage, gender, and sexuality. He reminds you that truth is not just an ideology, proposition, or statement, but it is primarily a person – Jesus. Are you ready to understand the magnitude of Jesus' ultimate sacrifice? It's time to deeply appreciate the significance of preparing for Mass and the power of mind renewal that Jesus teaches us. Together, we'll navigate the trials and sacrifices of Saint Paul as he took Christ to the Gentiles, spotlighting the transformative power of Jesus. We'll also explore the potential dangers of worldly allure that can lead to the loss of our souls. Join us in this journey of sacrifice and transformation, as we allow Jesus to shape us into his mind and heart. Like what you heard? Maybe you just enjoy reading James’s show notes?

Navigating Life's Trials: A Homily from Father Dom from the 22nd Sunday in Ordinary Time

Prayer to St. Joseph:
"Hail, Guardian of the Redeemer, Spouse of the Blessed Virgin Mary. To you God entrusted his only Son; in you Mary placed her trust; with you Christ became man.
"Blessed Joseph, to us too, show yourself a father and guide us in the path of life. Obtain for us grace, mercy, and courage, and defend us from every evil. Amen."

Ep 74 - Fear: A Catholic Response and Reflection

James welcomes John Clark to discuss his latest book on the decline of marriage in the Catholic Church brought to you by TAN books titled "<a href="https://tanbooks.com/products/betrayed-without-a-kiss-defending-marriage-after-years-of-failed-leadership-in-the-church/?gc_id=17487855346&amp;gad_source=1&amp;gclid=Cj0KCQiAhc-sBhCEARIsAOVwHuTJUvuvE0Fzv-GeLbm1YnN5vWPOb_nNodN0gcxHAnP1jEm_IGxG-i0aArN3EALw_wcB" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Betrayed Without A Kiss: Defending Marriage After Years of Failed Leadership in the Church</a>."  Clark emphasizes the role of laypeople in educating and promoting the importance of marriage, both before and after the wedding ceremony. He emphasizes the need for support and encouragement from fellow parents and the power of prayer. He highlights the importance of living a sacramental life and the beauty of receiving the sacraments together as a couple. Lastly, he encourages listeners to share the beauty of marriage with priests and reminds them of the importance of strong marriages in the Church.Takeaways <ul><li>The Catholic Church has seen a significant increase in annulments and a decrease in Catholic marriages, indicating a crisis in the institution of marriage.</li><li>There is a correlation between the use of contraception and the high divorce rate, as contraception undermines the procreative and unitive aspects of marriage.</li><li>The decline of marriage is influenced by diabolical forces that seek to break up marriages and undermine the sanctity of the institution.</li><li>Lay people have a crucial role in defending and upholding the sanctity of marriage by challenging the Church hierarchy and promoting the importance of marriage education and preparation.

Be a Man! with Fr Larry Richards 

Rejoice in the Lord always. Again, I say rejoice.On the Third Sunday of Advent, Gaudete Sunday, the Church commands us to do something radical: rejoice, not later, not when life gets easier, but now. In this episode, Fr. Dom breaks open what true Christian joy actually is and why it matters for Catholic men who are fighting daily battles in their homes, their minds, and their souls.This is not sentimental joy. This is not shallow happiness. This is joy rooted in Jesus Christ, joy forged through hope and peace, joy that survives suffering, persecution, and the chaos of the world. Drawing from Sacred Scripture, the Catechism, and the wisdom of the saints, we walk through the Advent virtues of hope, peace, and joy and why gratitude is the weapon that crushes Satan every time.Fr. Dom reflects on family, tradition, and memory, not for nostalgia’s sake, but to remind us what we are fighting for. Then we go deeper. Hope is not optimism. Peace is not comfort. Joy is not dependent on circumstances. These are theological realities planted in your soul at baptism and strengthened through the sacraments.We confront the lie that joy is optional or reserved for the emotionally stable. If joy is missing, something is blocking it. That obstacle must be dragged into the light and surrendered to Christ. This episode ends with a direct challenge: give your heart back to God completely, tear down the idols that have crept in this year, and let Christ declare war on the darkness within you.This is Advent lived like a Catholic man should live it: awake, disciplined, grateful, and ready.3 Powerful Quotes from the Episode<ol><li>“When we embrace deep gratitude, Satan can’t touch you. Praying in gratitude crushes Satan.”</li><li>“Hope is not optimism. It is a theological virtue planted in your soul at baptism.”</li><li>“Lord, invade my heart. Declare war on the darkness within me and bring light.”</li></ol>1 Key Takeaway for Men Today, make a deliberate act of gratitude to God for your salvation and the sacraments. Name it out loud. Gratitude clears anxiety, weakens temptation, and restores joy. This is not optional. It is spiritual warfare.Push play. Rejoice. Then fight like a man who knows Christ is near.<a target="_blank" href="https://www.buzzsprout.com/twilio/text_messages/1766613/open_sms">Send us a text</a> <a rel="payment" href="https://buymeacoffee.com/tmc">Support the show</a>Please prayerfully consider supporting the podcast on our <a href='https://buymeacoffee.com/tmc'>Buy Me A Coffee </a>page. to help grow the show to reach as many men as possible!

Fr. Dom's Homs - Gaudete Sunday: Why Real Joy Is a Weapon the Enemy Fears

Imagine being woken in the dead of night by an angel, urgency ringing in your ears: "Get up, take your wife and child, and flee—someone’s coming to kill your son." That’s the reality Saint Joseph faced. As we journey through Lent with Saint Joseph, this episode dives deep into his title "Joseph Most Strong"—a man whose strength wasn’t just in his carpenter’s hands but in his unshakable resolve to protect his family and trust God when the world turned dark. This isn’t a dusty saint story; it’s a raw, human look at what real strength means for us men today—and how we can live it out.I’ll walk you through Joseph’s life—his response to Mary’s pregnancy, his midnight trek to a hostile land—and ask: What would you do? When fear hits—flee, fight, freeze, or fawn—where do you land? Joseph didn’t panic; he moved. And that’s our cue. Today, strength might mean standing up for truth when the room’s against you or pushing past exhaustion for your family. It’s not about never feeling scared—it’s about leaning on God and acting anyway.Here’s your challenge, men: hit the gym today. Not for vanity, but because your body’s a gift from God, a temple of the Holy Spirit. No more "dad bod" excuses—I’ve got four kids and sleep deprivation too, but we’re called to be warriors for Christ. Lift something, sweat, take care of what He gave you. Pair that with a moment of prayer, asking Joseph to guide you into his kind of strength—physical and spiritual. This episode isn’t just talk; it’s a call to do. Push play, reflect, and step up.Products and References Mentioned<ul><li>Buy Me a Coffee Page: Support the podcast financially at <a href="https://buymeacoffee.com/TMC" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">buymeacoffee.com/TMC</a>.</li><li>Social Media: Follow The Manly Catholic on X (Twitter) for updates.</li><li>Email: Reach out at themanlycatholic@gmail.com.</li><li>YouTube: Subscribe to the channel for video content.</li><li>Scripture Reference: Psalm 27:14 – "Wait for the Lord, be strong and let your heart take courage."</li></ul>3 Powerful Quotes<ol><li>"Strength isn’t just about lifting heavy loads...

Ep 48 - Levels of Prayer - Part 2

Are you ready to be inspired? Are you ready to take that next step and welcome your son (or daughter!) into adulthood? Then this is the interview for you! Join James and David Arms, that other co-author of the book "Milestone to Manhood," a practical guide to your boys rite of passage into adulthood. Father Dom and James discussed Rite of Passages back in episodes 27, 29, and 30. BUT, this book actually gives you a template on how to actually incorporate that into your life. You won't want to miss this interview! James talks with the other Arms, David, to get the dad's perspective on the importance of the Rite of Passage for their family.  Milestone to Manhood shows how fathers of pre-teen boys can help their sons to successfully make the transition from boyhood to manhood. It is a father’s responsibility to bestow the title of “man” on his son, and the book outlines a once-in-a-lifetime weekend to help a father do so. The weekend involves the other male role models in the son’s life as well, like his grandfather, uncles, and older brothers, who all participate in order to make it clear to the boy that he is now considered to be a man. This coming-of-age ceremony is called his Rite of Passage. Visit <a href="https://www.milestonetomanhood.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">milestonetomandhood.com</a> for more info!

Ep 63 - Interview with David Arms, The Other Co-Author of Milestone to Manhood

Many Catholics don’t realize that the Bible as we know it today was compiled by the Catholic Church under the guidance of the Holy Spirit. For the first 400 years of Christianity, believers didn’t have personal copies of Scripture. Instead, they learned the faith through oral tradition and the teaching authority of the Church. This is why sola scriptura—the idea that Scripture alone is all we need—is false. We need Sacred Tradition and the Church’s authority to rightly interpret the Word of God. Without these, confusion and division take hold.Fr. Dom also emphasized that reading Scripture should not be passive—it should stir our souls. When the Jewish people in Nehemiah’s time heard the Word of God proclaimed, they stood in reverence, recognizing its holiness. That’s why we stand when the Gospel is read at Mass! Scripture is meant to pierce our hearts and set them on fire. If we aren’t being changed by what we read, we need to ask ourselves: Are we truly engaging with it?3 Takeaways for Men to Put into Action Today:<ol><li>Make Scripture a Daily Habit – Even if you start with just five minutes a day, open your Bible and read. Use the 14-book guide from St. Augustine to help you see the bigger picture of salvation history.</li><li>Learn the Church’s Role in Preserving the Bible – Knowing that the Church safeguarded and compiled Scripture strengthens your ability to defend the faith and grow in confidence as a Catholic man.</li><li>Live the Word, Don’t Just Read It – Choose one verse that speaks to you and put it into practice today. If Scripture isn’t transforming your life, it’s time to start taking it seriously.</li></ol>3 Memorable Quotes from Fr. Dom’s Homily:<ol><li>"When I found your words, I devoured them. Your words were my joy, the happiness of my heart, because I bear your name, Lord God of hosts." – Jeremiah 15:16</li><li>"Sacred Scripture is not just some book written by human beings… it cuts through flesh, bone, and marrow into the soul. It convicts us. It transforms us."</li><li>"You cannot remove the Church from the Bible. It was the Church, guided by the Holy Spirit, that safeguarded and compiled the very Scriptures we hold today."</li></ol>Support The Manly Catholic Podcast!If this episode strengthened your faith, don’t keep it to yourself—share it with another man who needs to hear it.

Fr. Dom's Homs: Devouring the Word: The Power of Scripture in a Man’s Life from the 3rd Sunday in OT

In this episode, our conversation explores the mission of Amazing Parish and the importance of healthy leadership within the Church. Brett and Tim Glemkowski reflect on the powerful fruits of the Eucharistic Congress, how renewal movements can collaborate rather than compete, and the reminder that true revival comes from God's movement, not just strategies or models. They share encouraging signs of spiritual hunger, especially among Gen Z, and highlight the role of leaders in discerning and supporting God's work already underway. The episode closes with reflections on the surprise election of Pope Leo, his grounded Midwestern roots, and the hope that his leadership brings for the future.

Tim Glemkowski on Leading the Eucharistic Congress and the Future of the Church

In this powerful episode of The Manly Catholic, James sits down once again with one of the Church’s boldest defenders of truth, Bishop Athanasius Schneider. Together, they discuss his latest book, <a href="https://www.sojolk8trk.com/4LNG39/2BPR932/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Salve Regina: A Rosary Crusade to Plead for Holy Popes</a>, a spiritual call to arms for every Catholic man.The conversation begins with Bishop Schneider’s honest reflection on the state of the Church under Pope Leo XIV. He acknowledges both the hope and the grave concerns, especially the danger of promoting men who tolerate heresy or immorality to positions of power. Yet his message remains clear: Christ will not abandon His Church. The gates of hell will not prevail.Bishop Schneider explains why the holiness of the Pope matters for the entire Body of Christ, how one holy shepherd can renew a diocese for generations, and why we must not only pray for priests but for holy popes and bishops. He then unveils the purpose behind his “Rosary Crusade;” a militant spiritual campaign rooted in prayer, fasting, and fidelity to the Blessed Mother.Men are challenged to take up their weapon: the Rosary. The Bishop reminds us that this prayer has crushed heresies, conquered empires, and converted sinners for centuries. He calls men to be protectors — not just of their homes, but of the Church itself — by interceding for holy leaders and teaching their children by example.Pick up your Rosary. Join the crusade. Become a soldier of Our Lady.Referenced in this episode:<ul><li><a href="https://www.sojolk8trk.com/4LNG39/2BPR932/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Salve Regina: A Rosary Crusade to Plead for Holy Popes</a> – Bishop Athanasius Schneider (Sophia Institute Press)</li><li>Infiltration – Dr. Taylor Marshall</li><li>True Devotion to Mary – St. Louis de Montfort</li></ul>Three Powerful Quotes from Bishop Schneider:<ol><li>“The Church on Earth is the militant Church.

Welcome to 2024!

How do we unlock the true potential of authentic masculinity? In part 2 of our conversation with Roy Shaw,  we explore the deep spiritual and practical connections between submission, spiritual combat, and Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. Drawing from Scripture, the wisdom of the Church, and personal journeys, James and Father Dom tackle the challenges men face today. Discover why Ephesians 5 calls men to lead and love like Christ and how lessons from BJJ mirror the virtues required to win the spiritual battle for our families and communities. Hear powerful insights on the importance of complementarity in marriage, breaking generational sin, and the transformative power of submission—not as weakness but as strength. Takeaways: - Submission as Leadership: True submission, as seen in Ephesians 5, involves men dying to themselves to serve their families and communities with love and leadership. This reflects Christ’s love for the Church. - The Power of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu: BJJ teaches discipline, humility, and perseverance—critical virtues for spiritual warfare. "Learning to tap" mirrors the need for surrender to God's will. - Breaking Generational Sin: Addressing intergenerational sin and spiritual strongholds is vital for protecting our families from hidden spiritual battles. - Authentic Masculinity: Embracing strength tempered by meekness leads to righteous leadership and inspires those around us to follow Christ. Food for Thought: <ul><li>"A man on fire for God will stand at the gate, ensuring Satan has no entry into his home."</li><li>"Submission isn’t about losing power; it’s about unleashing the strength God has given you to serve."</li><li>"Marriage isn’t 50/50—it’s 100/100. True love is about out-giving each other."</li><li>"BJJ isn’t just a martial art—it’s a theological exercise in humility and perseverance." </li><li>"You will know the character of a man by the countenance of his wife."</li></ul>Call to Action: If this episode challenged or inspired you, don’t keep it to yourself—share it with a fellow brother in Christ!

Ep 146 - Unlocking Authentic Masculinity: Spiritual Warfare, Submission, and the Lessons of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu

The 11th century was a mess—corrupt clergy, moral decay, and a Church in desperate need of reform. Enter Saint Peter Damian. A man of prayer, penance, and unshakable courage, he didn’t just sit back and complain—he fought for holiness. Hard.In this episode, we dive into: 🔥 How St. Peter Damian took on corruption in the Church—without fear.  🔥 The brutal truth about comfort and why modern men are spiritually weak.  🔥 Why calling out sin isn’t just an option—it’s a duty.  🔥 Practical steps to strengthen your spiritual life through penance, prayer, and sacrifice.  🔥 What YOU can do today to grow in holiness, starting now.St. Peter Damian was a warrior for truth. Will you follow in his footsteps?🔥 3 Quotes from the Episode:<ol><li>“We are not made for comfort. We are made for greatness.”</li><li>“He called out the Cardinals, the bishops, and the priests who abused their power. That took courage. Maybe you need to have courage today.”</li><li>“True reform begins with ourselves. Are we praying daily? Are we frequenting the sacraments? Are we striving for purity of heart and mind?”</li></ol>One Key Takeaway:Do something hard today. Comfort breeds weakness. Challenge yourself physically, mentally, or spiritually. Fast. Take a cold shower. Confront a difficult conversation. The only way to grow in holiness is through struggle.References &amp; Products Mentioned:<ul><li>The Book of Gomorrah – St. Peter Damian’s fearless rebuke of clerical immorality</li><li>2 Timothy 1:7 – “God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind.”</li><li>The Comfort Crisis – A modern book highlighting how soft we've become</li><li>The Liturgy of the Hours – St. Peter Damian’s “weapon” in the spiritual battle</li></ul>Men, it’s time to step up.

Sanctifying Saints - Saint Peter Damian: The Reformer Who Refused to Stay Silent

In this stirring homily, Fr. Dominic unpacks the profound significance of epiphanies in the liturgical season, focusing on the Baptism of the Lord. From the Magi’s historic journey to Jesus' transformative act in the Jordan River, Fr. Dominic challenges us to encounter Christ in ways that will forever change our hearts and lives.He weaves together Scripture, Church history, and vivid examples, including the incredible story of St. Genesius of Rome, to illustrate the transformative power of baptism and the call to choose God every day. This homily is not just a reflection—it’s a battle cry for men to reclaim their identity in Christ.3 Memorable Quotes<ol><li>"You are my beloved son, with whom I am well pleased." Let this truth resound in your heart daily as a constant reminder of God’s unwavering love for you.</li><li>"Epiphany is the supernatural crashing into the natural—a moment meant to transform us." Encounter Christ and let Him radically alter your path.</li><li>"Baptism isn’t just a ritual; it’s the gateway to salvation, removing original sin and filling us with God’s grace."</li></ol>3 Actionable Steps for Men<ol><li>Reflect Daily on Your Baptismal Identity: Meditate on the reality that you are a beloved son of God. Begin each day with the prayer: "Lord, I belong to You. Help me to know, love, and serve You."</li><li>Fast and Pray for Loved Ones: If family members have strayed from the faith or delayed baptizing their children, offer intentional fasting and prayer for their conversion and return to the Church.</li><li>Be a Witness to Christ’s Transformation: Like the Magi and St. Genesius, let your encounter with Jesus change your direction. Share your faith boldly, even when it’s challenging, and trust in God’s grace to guide you.</li></ol>Join us as we reflect on this powerful message of hope, redemption, and the call to embrace God’s transformative love through baptism.

Fr. Dom's Homs - Transformed by Epiphany: Embracing Your Baptismal Identity and Living as God’s Beloved Son

To most, the Incarnation is so familiar that we have lost touch with what a scandal the manger would have been in its time.
 
In this Advent and Christmas episode, Matt Fradd welcomes Biblical scholar, Dr. Scott Hahn, to examine prophetic texts of the Old Testament that lay the ground for the arrival of the Christ child, covenants that prepared the way, and the earth shattering reality of God becoming an embryo.
 
Together they uncover the layers and depth of the Christmas scriptures and God's plan for you, while exploring typology, the significance of Mary's role in salvation history, and the meaning of the manger.

An Honest Take on the Battle of Candace Owens vs. TPUSA

Storms. They come at all stages in life. Bills are stacking up, your wife is stressed, and your kids are lost in screens. Who holds it together? YOU. And St. Joseph, the Pillar of Families, shows you how. Today, we dig into his role as the rock of the Holy Family. He was the pillar of the Holy Family. Steady, faithful, and unbreakable. He wasn’t just a carpenter fixing tables; he built a home where Jesus learned to pray and Mary thrived, facing chaos like Egypt’s exile with a spine of steel. The Catechism (1655) calls the Holy Family the Christian model with Joseph being the cornerstone. Our world might be splashing around the boat, but you can be the anchor.Lead your family in prayer today. Start with grace before dinner or do a full rosary if you are up for it. Small, doable, foundational. Your family’s not a side gig; it’s your battleground for sainthood. Hit play, grab your work boots, and let’s build a legacy that stands firm like Joseph’s.Keywords: St. Joseph, Catholic men, Pillar of Families, Lent reflection, family, faith, strength, Manly Catholic podcast  Products/References:  <ul><li>Catechism: Paragraph 1655  </li><li>Encyclical: Redemptoris Custos by St. Pope John Paul II  </li><li>Prayer: Terror of Demons, Memorare to St. Joseph  </li><li>Tradition: St. Bernardine of Siena  </li><li>Social Media: Twitter, YouTube  </li><li>Contact: themanlycatholic@gmail.com</li></ul>Powerful Quotes:  <ol><li>“You’re not just a paycheck or a handyman... you’re the foundation.

Day 24 - St. Joseph’s Unshakable Call: Become the Pillar Your Family Needs

Michael Acaldo, CEO of the National Office of the Society of St. Vincent de Paul USA, is back at the Tiny Table with Paul Kolker, Nick Bezner, and Jeff Schiefelbein to talk about humility.
 Michael frames humility as a clear recognition that God is in control, that any “wins” in ministry are really Christ working through the gifts He has given, and that perseverance is still a win even when outcomes do not go the way you hoped. The Dudes also explore how language matters, trading “I’m proud” for “I’m blessed,” and how humility is not an excuse to hide the light. Real humility does not seek attention, but it also does not fear being seen when it can inspire others to serve, evangelize, and follow Christ more boldly.
Along the way, you get classic BeatiDudes energy: the “parish within the parish” moment, the ego acronym “edging God out,” a rapid-fire chain reaction story about daily Mass and the domino effect of holy example, and Jeff’s legendary poem about losing with a smile. The episode lands with a simple invitation: do not let “false humility” keep you from doing good or sharing good. If the Society has been a “big secret” for too long, it is time to let it be seen, not for self, but for Christ, and for the people who need hope, help, and a path forward.

Humility Evangelizes | Michael Acaldo | Episode #282

In this episode, James and Dan explore a shroud of controversy. The Shroud of Turin is something that has brought about intense discussion on both sides of the aisle. We delve into the historical and scientific investigations of the Shroud, and reflect on the significance of evidence in strengthening faith. The conversation emphasizes the importance of seeking truth and understanding the role of relics in Catholicism, ultimately encouraging listeners to engage with their faith critically and thoughtfully.

Ep 84 - Unleash Your Inner Catholic Cowboy: A Spiritual Ride with Fr. Bryce Lungren

What does it really mean to be a man? Chapter Eight: Created delivers the answer with brutal clarity: to be a man is to give your life away. Father Larry tears into cultural lies about masculinity and replaces them with a vision rooted in Genesis, Jesus, and Joseph. This isn&rsquo;t about bravado. It&rsquo;s about becoming a protector, a servant, and a visible sign of God the Father&mdash;especially to your family. <a href="http://heroicmen.org/be-a-man-guide" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Download the Heroic Men Guide</a>

Chapter 8: Created to Serve

What happens when Christianity loses authority? Chaos follows. Families fracture. Men drift. Truth becomes negotiable.In Part Two of this conversation with Father Peter Damian, the discussion moves from personal history into the heart of the crisis facing the modern Church and the modern man. Father Peter continues unpacking his journey from Orthodoxy into the Catholic Church, but the focus sharpens on ecclesial authority, obedience, and why Christ intentionally established a visible Church with a living teaching office. This is not about preference. It is about survival.Drawing from Sacred Scripture, Church history, and lived pastoral experience, Fr. Peter explains why Christianity without a final authority inevitably fractures. He dismantles the illusion of unity without submission, exposes the danger of theological individualism, and shows why men who refuse authority always end up submitting to something else, whether the state, culture, or their own disordered passions.The conversation turns practical and confrontational. Fr. Peter speaks directly to Catholic men about obedience, not as weakness, but as strength. Pride masquerades as independence, but humility is the foundation of authentic masculinity. A man who cannot submit to God-given authority cannot lead his family, protect his home, or remain steady under pressure.James presses the issue further and issues a direct challenge to men who live in half-commitments. You cannot defend the Church while standing outside her walls. You cannot claim Christ while rejecting His Bride. You cannot rebuild a Catholic culture while refusing Catholic discipline.This episode rejects the comfortable lie that faith can be customized. It cannot. The Gospel demands total allegiance. Christ demands obedience. The Church demands fidelity.This is a call to decision.<hr /><h3>Powerful Quotes from the Episode</h3><ol><li>“Unity without authority is an illusion. It cannot last.”</li><li>“A man who rejects obedience will always end up enslaved to something else.”</li><li>“Christ did not leave us a feeling. He left us a Church.”</li></ol><h3>Key Takeaway for Men</h3>Stop negotiating with the faith. Choose obedience. Submit your intellect and your will fully to Christ and His Church. Cut off the habits, media, and influences that train you to resist authority. A disciplined soul is a free soul.<h3>Support &amp; Stay Connected</h3>Please prayerfully consider supporting the podcast on our Buy Me A Coffee page <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://buymeacoffee.com/tmc" target="_blank">https://buymeacoffee.com/tmc</a> to help grow the show and reach as many men as possible.

Ep 186 - Authority or Anarchy: Why Men Must Choose the Church Christ Founded with Fr. Peter

Most men give God just a little—one net when He asks for all of them. In this powerful episode, we dive deep into the transformation of Simon Peter and what his encounter with Christ teaches us about surrender. Are you holding back from God? Are you giving Him only part of your heart, your time, your effort? Today, we break down how true transformation happens when we finally let go and give Him everything.🔥 Discover why the Mass is a spiritual battlefield where you're armed with grace. 🔥 Uncover the hidden meaning behind Peter’s nets—and what it means for your life. 🔥 See how even a small "yes" to God can lead to radical change.You’re not meant to live half-heartedly. You’re made for greatness, for mission, for battle. It’s time to cast all your nets.Powerful Quotes from This Episode:<ol><li>"Jesus is asking Simon to give Him everything. Not just one net—all his nets. That’s what Jesus asks of us. Every time we encounter the Lord, He says, ‘I want everything. I want all of you.’"</li><li>"Every Mass, you are radiated with the blast of Calvary—His Passion, Death, Resurrection, and the descent of the Holy Spirit—arming you for the fight ahead."</li><li>"Give the Lord everything. Your anxieties, your despair, your hopelessness. Hand it over, and watch Him turn it into love, peace, and freedom."</li></ol>Key Takeaway for Men: Stop giving God only pieces of your life. If you want transformation, give Him everything—your strengths, weaknesses, struggles, and victories. Start today by fully surrendering one area of your life that you've been holding back.Push play. This is the challenge you need to hear today.Please prayerfully consider supporting the podcast on our <a href="https://buymeacoffee.com/tmc" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Buy Me A Coffee </a>page. to help grow the show to reach as many men as possible!

Ep 151 - Forging Men of Faith: Harmel Academy’s Mission to Unite Work, Leadership, and Catholic Identity

The Office of Marriage and Family Life of the Archdiocese of New Orleans, in partnership with Willwoods Faith and Marriage and the Point Man Podcast, invites men from all around southeast Louisiana to the 2026 Archdiocese of New Orleans Men’s Conference on Saturday, February 28, 2026 at Saint Dominic Church, New Orleans. Building on last year’s theme of trust, this year’s conference - &quot;Let It Be Done&quot; - will focus on the centrality of Mary’s trust in God and her responsibility for the life of the Church and the World. As we pray in the Memorare: “Never was it known that anyone who fled to thy protection, implored thy help, or sought thine intercession was left unaided.” The same can be said of every Catholic man who fully embraces his vocation and lives his faith in the particular circumstances of his life. This year’s Conference will come at a critical time for the life of our Church in New Orleans. It will be important for us to gather, to be encouraged in the faith, and to look forward in hope to what God is preparing for us. Visit <a href='https://nolacatholicmen.com/'>NOLACatholicMen.com</a> to register, sign up for group discounts, find promotional materials for your parish bulletin, and to learn more about how you and businesses in your community can support the efforts of the Conference.

The God of the Gaps

Brothers, imagine a life where your strength as a man hinges on one thing: how you love your wife. Day 5 of our St. Joseph Lenten series on The Manly Catholic dives into his title, "Spouse of the Mother of God," and it’s a reality check for every husband and priest out there. This isn’t just a nod to Joseph’s marriage to Mary, it’s a blueprint for us to build unshakable families and parishes. We’re digging into St. Joseph’s example today. Before he was Jesus’ earthly father, he was Mary’s husband, leading her with a love so deep it didn’t need words, just action. He protected her purity, stood by her through Bethlehem and Egypt, and guided their home in faith. Too many of us pour energy into jobs, hobbies, even kids, while our wives get leftovers. That’s backwards. A rock-solid marriage is the bedrock of fatherhood. Priests, you’re not off the hook—your spousal love for the Church mirrors this, birthing your role as spiritual fathers. Joseph led Mary and Jesus in holiness; we’ve got to do the same.Your challenge: Love Your Spouse Today. Ask yourself, “How am I laying down my life for her?” Take one concrete step—head to a church or adoration chapel for 15 minutes and pray for your wife (or the Church, priests). Ask her, “How can I pray for you?” and then follow through. Optimized for men searching for marriage advice or vocational strength, this episode cuts through the noise with actionable steps. Lent’s just starting; share this with a brother who needs it. Drop us a line at themanlycatholic.gmail.com with your feedback or prayer requests. We’re in this fight together, so let’s step up.Products/References<ul><li>St. Joseph Terror of Demons Prayer: Recited in the episode—search it online.</li><li>Memorare to St. Joseph: Closing prayer—grab a copy to use.</li><li>Adoration Chapel: Recommended for prayer—find one near you.</li></ul>3 Powerful Quotes<ol><li>"Your primary vocation is to your wife, not your children."  </li><li>"A strong marriage is the bedrock of the family." </li><li>"His love was not just sentimental, it was active."  </li></ol>Prioritize your wife first.

Fr. Dom's Homs - Faith, Sacrifice, and The Importance of The Eucharist

What is the true nature of heresy, and how does it threaten the integrity of our faith? Join us for an eye-opening episode of the Manly Catholic featuring the esteemed Bishop Athanasius Schneider. We start by unpacking the etymology and severe implications of heresy as a violation of divine truth. Bishop Schneider, drawing from his latest book, shares profound insights into over 130 doctrinal errors throughout history and underscores the vital role of bishops as spiritual physicians. We also tackle the pressing issue of "cafeteria Catholics" who selectively follow Church teachings, thereby undermining the unity of divine revelation. Can excommunication be a form of love and protection for the Church? This engaging segment confronts the modernist heresy, which poses a significant threat to religious convictions today. By drawing parallels between spiritual health and disease, we argue the necessity of excommunication as a corrective measure. Modernism, rooted in Kantian philosophy and nominalism, is dissected for its dangerous impact on the stability of divine truth. Bishop Schneider passionately discusses the erosion of religious convictions and the acceptance of practices contrary to traditional Church teachings, reinforcing the importance of adhering steadfastly to doctrinal truth amidst cultural shifts. How can we truly appreciate the depth and beauty of Catholic truth? In this final segment, we delve into the divine origin and timeless teachings of the Catholic faith. From the Trinity to the Eucharist, Bishop Schneider emphasizes the importance of deepening one’s faith through prayerful reflection and meditation. We also have the privilege of introducing his forthcoming book, "Flee from Heresy: A Catholic Guide to Ancient and Modern Errors," set for release on July 16th, 2024. The episode concludes with a heartfelt blessing from the Bishop, inspiring listeners to continue growing in their faith and standing firm against modern heresies.

Ep 123 - Defending the Faith: Bishop Athanasius Schneider on Heresy, Modernism, and Catholic Truth

Juan Acosta is a young Latino immigrant who founded Tabella, the social app for Catholic communities. Before he started Tabella in 2020, he was the COO of Draper University, a pre-accelerator in Silicon Valley. Juan accelerated 700+ entrepreneurs and invested in world-changing ideas. He currently also serves as a board member of the funding arm of the International Catholic Migration Commission. After immigrating to the USA with his family at a young age, he faced incredible challenges that fortified his faith slowly - many of those experiences have led him now to focus on Tabella and his life&rsquo;s mission of bringing the world closer to God. <a href="https://jointabella.com/">jointabella.com</a>

Finally, we discuss the resurrection of Jesus, some of the characteristics of His glorified body, and why He remained on earth 40 days after His resurrection before He ascended into heaven to take His seat at the right hand of the Father.Host: Mario Costabile Cohost: Dr. David Hajduk- Sponsors -Birch Gold Group - The precious metals IRA Specialists. <a href="https://bit.ly/3IaudIo">LEARN MORE</a> Magnificat - A simple way to transform the way you pray. <a href="%20https://bit.ly/4btLSYF">LEARN MORE</a> - Resources -Take our podcast survey to help us make A Reason for Hope better for YOU! <a href="https://www.areasonforhopepodcast.com/">www.areasonforhopepodcast.com</a>Visit our website:<a href="https://arrayofhope.org/">www.arrayofhope.org</a> Sign up for FREE on the Array of Hope Channel app:<a href="https://watch.arrayofhope.net/">watch.arrayofhope.net</a>Available on Apple TV, Roku, iOS, and Android mobile devices.

Marcellino D'Ambrosio | What is Religion?

Our very first interview! This week we have a very special guest with us as we welcome Dr. Kyle Walsh, create and founder of the Instagram page, <a href="https://www.instagram.com/catholicfitfatherhood/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Catholicfitfatherhood</a>. Dr. Kyle Walsh is an ER/ICU doctor in the Ohio/Kentucky area and has a passion for Catholicism, masculinity, and fitness. He is a husband, father of 3, and a man striving to be a saint each and every day. Beginning around the time of the great Pope St. John Paul II's death, Kyle had a fire lit in him to learn more about his faith and become a better man. Around the age of 31, he had an epiphany that he didn't truly have meaningful friends, something men in this day and age struggle with daily. His definition of a true friend? Someone who can just walk into your house, open the refrigerator, and grab something to eat without asking. Now THAT is a true friend. Join James and Kyle this week as they talk about the importance of fraternity, masculinity, fitness, and incorporating all that into the greater foundation in our life, Catholicism.

The Vatican Valley – Building Catholic Community and Serving Others| Mike Murray | Episode #165

Most Catholic men have never heard of St. Gregory of Narek—and that needs to change. This 10th-century Armenian monk, poet, and theologian was a powerhouse of prayer, a master of humility, and a man who understood suffering better than most. In 2015, Pope Francis declared him a Doctor of the Church, yet his writings remain largely unknown to many Catholics.So, who was this saint? Why does his Book of Lamentations still speak to us today? And what does his life teach us about the power of prayer, repentance, and God’s mercy?In this episode, we dive deep into: ✅ Why Gregory’s Book of Lamentations is a must-read for Catholic men ✅ The raw power of prayer and why most of us neglect it ✅ The connection between humility and true strength ✅ The lesson every man needs to embrace: You cannot do this alone ✅ How his life mirrors St. Paul’s call to boast in weakness so that Christ’s power can work through usThis is more than a history lesson. It’s a challenge—to rethink your prayer life, to embrace humility, and to make God's mercy your foundation.Lent is coming. Will you let God transform your heart?3 Powerful Quotes from the Episode:<ol><li>“Prayer is not just a religious duty—it is a deep, personal conversation with God. And yet, how often do we forget to actually talk to Him?”</li><li>“If we are so focused on our own strength, our own abilities, where are we making space for God? Pride shuts the door on grace.”</li><li>“God’s mercy is the foundation of everything. Without it, we are lost. St. Gregory’s writings remind us of this over and over again.”</li></ol>Stop trying to white-knuckle your way through life. St. Gregory teaches that real strength comes through humility, prayer, and total reliance on God’s mercy. A man who refuses to ask for help—whether from God or his brothers in Christ—will always fall. Drop the pride. Pick up the habit of prayer.Referenced in the Episode:<ul><li>The Book of Lamentations by St. Gregory of Narek</li><li>2 Corinthians 12:9—“My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.”</li><li>The importance of confession, prayer, and humility in the spiritual life</li><li>The Manly Catholic’s St. Joseph’s Lenten Series – Daily reflections starting March 5th</li></ul>If you’re ready to deepen your faith and take your prayer life seriously, hit play now.Please prayerfu<a href="https://www.buzzsprout.com/twilio/text_messages/1766613/open_sms" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Send us a text</a> <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://buymeacoffee.com/tmc">Support the show</a>Please prayerfully consider supporting the podcast on our <a href="https://buymeacoffee.com/tmc" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Buy Me A Coffee </a>page. to help grow the show to reach as many men as possible!

Sanctifying Saints - St. Gregory of Narek: The Forgotten Doctor of the Church Every Man Needs to Know

What happens when more boys have smartphones than fathers in their homes? A groundbreaking UK research study called 'Lost Boys' has revealed alarming trends about young men today. John Heinen and Devin Schadt welcome back three-time guest Jim O'Day to respond to and unpack this landmark research and its implications. Together, they examine how the critical absence of male role models—particularly fathers—is creating a generation of directionless young men. The conversation highlights shocking statistics: women in their 20s are consistently out-earning their male counterparts, and young men are afraid to talk to women. The trio explores how fatherlessness, education failures, technology addiction, pornography exposure, and society's ignoring of men are ruining the future of humanity. While secular solutions continue to fall short, John, Devin, and Jim present both immediate interventions and long-term approaches rooted in timeless Catholic wisdom.

The No.1 Reason Boys Don't Grow Up: We are Making Dangerous, Depressed, and Lonely Men!

Imagine starting something that no one believes in. That’s exactly what happened when Andre Regnier founded CCO in 1988. Evangelization wasn’t just uncommon in Catholic circles back then—it was almost a dirty word. But he and his wife pushed forward, convinced that God was calling them to bring young people back to the Church. In this conversation, Andre shares the struggles, the doubts, and the moments that almost made him quit. So how did he keep going? Two things: prayer and perseverance. He describes how his personal prayer life sustained him, how he learned to talk to God like a friend over coffee, and why prayer isn’t just about checking off a list—it’s about real relationship. He also shares the exact steps he teaches young people today to build a meaningful daily prayer life. If you've ever felt disconnected from prayer, if you've wondered how to hear God speak, or if you've needed encouragement to stay strong in your faith, this episode is for you. Plus, Andre introduces a simple prayer guide that could transform your own spiritual life.

The Sacraments in Quarantine (Dr. Janet Smith) | Ep. 196

When it comes to our secular lives, it is pretty easy to say what the goal is and how we are achieving it. But when it comes to living out the Faith, we are often times running aimlessly.  We chase other trophies. What are we doing and where are we going? 

In this episode you will hear John and Victor say : 
- If you have enough discipline & desire to buy a boat… are you also orienting that discipline & desire to prayer? 
- There is a veil over our eyes, thinking “I’ll deal with things later”. Sometimes there is no later. 
- We waste so much time being unintentional. 
- Conversion is constant. If we think we made it, we are in a dangerous place.

Jesus and Satan: Lent Series, Ep 3

Paul Kolker, Nick Bezner, and Jeff Schiefelbein welcome John Egan to share one of the most remarkable stories of faith, redemption, and the unexpected ways God works through ordinary efforts.
John recounts his time as director of The Pines Catholic Camp in East Texas, where the dream of building an air-conditioned chapel, against all odds, turned into more than just a construction project. With limited funds, relentless faith, and the help of staff, family, and alumni, John and his wife literally helped build a church from the ground up.
But the story didn’t end there. Through a providential connection with the
foreman “Buddy,” a man whose personal struggles and redemption journey would culminate in an unexpected conversion, the chapel became the site of healing, grace, and even Buddy’s funeral Mass. The conversation highlights themes of perseverance, family reconciliation, sacramental grace, and God’s relentless pursuit of each soul.
The heart of this BeatiDudes’ episode is a testimony to how God works through ordinary efforts to create extraordinary grace. Whether you’ve ever hammered a nail for a parish project or simply wondered if God can redeem the broken parts of our stories, this episode will leave you inspired and grateful for the ways the Spirit shows up when we say “yes.”

The Chapel Story that Only God Could Write | John Egan | Episode #252

Episode 6: "The Body Reveals Man" features Catholic philosopher Dr. Peter Kreeft as we consider the meaning of the human body and how the body makes visible the invisible reality of the person created in the image and likeness of God, in light of St. John Paul II’s "Theology of the Body." This episode focuses on the truth that we are our bodies (as well as our souls), how we are called to be the image of God in the world, and how misunderstanding the meaning of the body has profound consequences for individuals and for society.Guest Info:<ul><li>Dr. Peter Kreeft - A convert to Roman Catholicism from a Calvinist upbringing, Dr. Kreeft is a renowned philosopher and teacher of Catholicism. He has authored a total of 95 books on Christian philosophy, theology, and apologetics, including Handbook of Christian Apologetics and Christianity for Modern Pagans. He currently resides as a professor of philosophy at Boston College.</li><li>David Carollo - David is one of the world’s leading experts and speakers on the Apparitions at Fatima and the executive director of the World Apostolate of Fatima USA. He has been a frequent guest on EWTN and Relevant Radio, and is a regular host on Winds of Change radio in Chicago.</li></ul> Host: Mario Costabile Cohost: Dr. David HajdukFollow Array of Hope Ministries on:Facebook: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/ArrayOfHopeMinistries">@arrayofhopeministries</a>Instagram: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/arrayofhopeministries/">@arrayofhopeministries</a>Twitter: <a href="https://twitter.com/AOHMinistries">@aohministries</a>TikTok: <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@arrayofhopeministries">@arrayofhopeministries</a> LinkedIn: <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/company/array-of-hope-ministries/">@arrayofhopeministries</a> YouTube: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/c/arrayofhope">@ArrayofHopeMinistries</a>

The Body Reveals Man w/ Dr. Peter Kreeft

Fr. Dom is back! James and Fr. Dom tackle one of the most misunderstood yet absolutely essential topics in the spiritual life: baptism. This is not just another Church formality. This is the dividing line between belonging to the Kingdom of God and the dominion of Satan.Drawing from Scripture, the Catechism, and the wisdom of the saints, TMC lays out with clarity and conviction what baptism truly does: freeing us from original sin, making us sons of God, and incorporating us into the Body of Christ. Without it, you remain enslaved to sin and outside the family of God.You’ll hear why the early Church Fathers, councils, and even the Protestant revolution itself reveal that there’s no salvation without baptism. Fr. Dominic doesn’t sugarcoat the truth — he calls modern men to wake up to the spiritual reality of this sacrament and to recognize the Church as the one true means of salvation given to us by Christ Himself.James and Fr. Dom also confront why our age resists authority, why relativism and pride have blinded so many, and why men must reclaim their God-given duty to lead their families into the faith by baptizing their children without hesitation.In this episode, you’ll discover:<ul><li>The biblical foundation of baptism — from Acts to Corinthians to the Great Commission.</li><li>Why baptism isn’t symbolic but supernatural warfare.</li><li>How baptism undoes the curse of Adam and Eve and reclaims your soul for God.</li><li>Why relativism, pride, and modernism are destroying moral order — and what Catholic men must do to restore it.</li><li>The spiritual danger of delaying baptism for your children.</li><li>Why contemplating death (memento mori) prepares your soul for heaven.</li></ul>Challenge to Men: If you have children who aren’t baptized — schedule it now. Don’t delay. Fathers, you are the protectors of your family’s souls. Take your post. Lead your household back under the protection of God. Baptism is the first weapon in your family’s arsenal against hell.3 Powerful Quotes:<ol><li>“Through baptism, we are freed from sin and reborn as sons of God. We become members of Christ and sharers in His mission.”</li><li>“If you’re not going to follow God, then who do you belong to? Baptism begins to undo definitively the faults of our first parents in the garden.”</li><li>“Parents, you’re supposed to protect your child. Why would you let them walk this world owned by Satan when baptism can claim them for G</li></ol><a href="https://www.buzzsprout.com/twilio/text_messages/1766613/open_sms" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Send us a text</a> <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://buymeacoffee.com/tmc">Support the show</a>Please prayerfully consider supporting the podcast on our <a href="https://buymeacoffee.com/tmc" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Buy Me A Coffee </a>page. to help grow the show to reach as many men as possible!

Ep 72 - Dr. Kevin Vost, May He Rest in Peace

This weekly podcast series hosted by Sean Lynn invites you to his distinctively Irish Canadian Pub studio in sharing A Dram with Friends where we talk about faith, family, food and fun. Pull up a chair and Sean will pour you a drink of his, or your, favourite Whiskey. Distilled alcohol in Latin is ‘aqua vitae’, water of life. The Latin translates in Gaelic to ‘usisge beatha’, also water of life. Whisky is therefore water of life. Jesus would give you living water if you ask (Jn 4:10) and He later says: “Let anyone who thirsts come to me and drink.” Join Sean for A Dram with Friends.

A Dram with Friends

It's a harsh truth: 31% of men at Sunday Mass lack a single close friend. Loneliness isn't just isolating; it's a health disaster, more lethal than alcoholism or smoking. Heroic Men is a movement on a mission to change this. We work to reconnect men with Christ, inspire authentic brotherhood, and bond around relentless spiritual growth. https://heroicmen.org&nbsp;This isn't just about friendships—it's about forging a community where men challenge, sharpen, and hold each other accountable. It's about becoming the best version of themselves and reshaping culture. This is a rallying cry for Catholic men to step up, embrace brotherhood, and transform lives, family, and culture together.

Heroic Men and the Crushing Epidemic of Loneliness among Men
