Because the doctor of Catholic truth ought not only to teach the proficient, but also to instruct beginners (according to the Apostle: As unto little ones in Christ, I gave you milk to drink, not meat -- 1 Corinthians 3:1-2), we purpose in this book to treat of whatever belongs to the Christian religion, in such a way as may tend to the instruction of beginners. We have considered that students in this doctrine have not seldom been hampered by what they have found written by other authors, partly on account of the multiplication of useless questions, articles, and arguments, partly also because those things that are needful for them to know are not taught according to the order of the subject matter, but according as the plan of the book might require, or the occasion of the argument offer, partly, too, because frequent repetition brought weariness and confusion to the minds of readers. Endeavouring to avoid these and other like faults, we shall try, by God's help, to set forth whatever is included in thissacred doctrine as briefly and clearly as the matter itself may allow.

Episode 80 - Jesus reveals His Gospel will cause division in families as some choose to accept or deny Him - Sunday July 2, 2023 - Mt 10:37-42

Ladies and gentlemen, he is back! Fr. Dom is back in the saddle. This conversation explores a large variety of topics as we take some questions from some of our listeners. From addiction to mortal sin versus venial sins, we emphasize the importance of being vicious and fighting against addiction, especially in the context of pornography and masturbation. The role of confession and the sacraments in overcoming sin is highlighted, as well as the need for accountability and support. The conversation also touches on the importance of filling one&apos;s time with virtuous activities and seeking the guidance of the Holy Spirit. We also discuss the importance of being in a state of grace to receive the Eucharist, the concept of righteous anger, the role of men in fighting against societal issues, the power of the mind, and so much more! Takeaways<ol><li>Confession is essential for those struggling with addiction, as it provides the grace needed to overcome sin.</li><li>Mortal sin requires full knowledge and deliberate consent, while venial sin is a less serious violation of God&apos;s law.</li><li>It is important to be vicious and fight against sin, not allowing it to define who we are.</li><li>Filling one&apos;s time with virtuous activities and seeking the guidance of the Holy Spirit can help in overcoming addiction and sin. Being in a state of grace is essential to receive the Eucharist</li><li>Righteous anger can be a positive force when tempered with virtue</li><li>Men have a crucial role in fighting against societal issues and need to be virtuous</li><li>The mind is a powerful tool that should be filled with virtuous thoughts</li><li>Men should seek the sacraments, particularly through spending time in adoration</li><li>Prudence is a vital virtue to ask for in prayer</li></ol>Food for Thought<ul><li>&quot;You have to be a monster, you have to be vicious, you have to be a dangerous man&quot;</li><li>&quot;If you&apos;re not in a state of grace, don&apos;t receive the Eucharist.&quot;</li><li>&quot;There&apos;s nothing wrong with righteous anger.&quot;</li><li>&quot;Imagine if all men had righteous anger, there&apos;d be no more abortion, there&apos;d be no more divorce, there&apos;d be no more contraception or human trafficking.&quot;</li></ul>Please prayerfully consider supporting the podcast on our <a href='https://www.patreon.com/themanlycatholic?fan_landing=true'>Patreon</a> page. to help grow the show to reach as many men as possible!

Heroic Men w/ Dan Donaldson

Most men wake up in chaos and go to bed in silence—but not in prayer.In this final installment of our “Daily Grind” series, I give you the strategy every Catholic man needs to end his day with clarity, discipline, and purpose. If you’re not examining your day with God every night, then you are drifting—and drift is deadly in spiritual combat.This episode is your call to war.  Not against the world—but against your own mediocrity.We walk through the 3 essentials of a nighttime routine that isn’t about comfort—it’s about conversion:<ul><li>Review your day under the gaze of God.</li><li>Repent of your failures with humility.</li><li>Resolve to rise and fight again tomorrow.</li></ul>This isn&apos;t fluff. This is about forming the habit of holiness through repetition. This is about reclaiming your night from the Enemy and entrusting it to Christ. This is about ending your day like a saint-in-training—not a slave to screens or laziness.I issue a clear challenge: You have no excuse not to do this. Stop wasting your nights. Stop lying to yourself that you&apos;re too tired. You are a man of God—act like it.You want to be a priest of your home?  Then end your day as a priest, offering the sacrifice of your failures and victories to the Lord.🔑 Key Takeaway: Start an evening examen—tonight. No delay. 5 minutes. Reflect, repent, resolve. Make it a non-negotiable.💬 3 Powerful Quotes:<ol><li>“Your day doesn’t end with Netflix. Your day ends with the Cross.”</li><li>“If you’re too tired to pray, you’re too tired to lead.”</li><li>“When men stop examining their lives, the Devil fills the silence.”</li></ol>📦 Resources Mentioned:<ul><li>The Examen Prayer (St. Ignatius of Loyola)</li><li>The Liturgy of the Hours (Night Prayer)</li></ul>👊 Final Challenge to Men: Be intentional. End your day with God or end it with excuses. Every night is a battle. Finish strong. Review your day. Repent of your sins. Resolve to be better. That’s how Catholic men fight.<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!

Healing the Whole Person - John Paul II Healing Center

Do you ever feel like your work, whether it’s swinging a hammer, chasing deadlines, or just mowing the lawn, lacks purpose? Welcome to Day 20 of our Lenten Reflections series, where we unpack St. Joseph as the &quot;Model of Workers.&quot; This isn’t about a corner office or a fat paycheck; it’s about a carpenter with calluses who taught Jesus how to work with his hands and turned sweat into worship. Joseph didn’t just clock in. He sanctified every task, from shaping wood to shaping the Savior, showing us that labor can be love, duty, and a middle finger to the devil who hates honest effort. We’ll dig into how Jesus learned this trade in Nazareth, prepping for Gethsemane, and how Jason Craig’s Leaving Boyhood Behind ties it to a boy’s shift from mom to dad. Today’s challenge: pick one task big (like your job) small (like doing the dishes) and do it well. Offer it to God. Hit play to see how Joseph’s example can flip your grind into glory, no matter what you do.Referenced Products/Books<ul><li><a href='https://www.osvcatholicbookstore.com/leaving-boyhood-behind-reclaiming-the-gift-of-manhood-and-traditional-rites-of-passage.html'>Leaving Boyhood Behind: Reclaiming Catholic Brotherhood </a>by Jason Craig</li></ul>Powerful Quotes<ol><li>&quot;Work isn’t drudgery. It’s love, it’s duty. It can be an act of worship to God.&quot;  </li><li>&quot;St. Joseph wasn’t flashy, right? He was faithful though. He wasn’t after applause, he was after providing for his family through the purpose that God gave him.&quot;  </li><li>&quot;Maximizing your potential, gentlemen, sometimes means that you’re not maximizing your spiritual life with God.&quot;</li></ol>Offer your work to God today. Take one task, do it with heart, and sanctify it—because even the smallest job can echo eternity when it’s for Him.<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!

Day 20 - St. Joseph’s Work Hack: Making Every Job Holy

EP 34 - Q&A with Fr. Larry Richards - The Reason For Our Hope Foundation

Why do so many men find themselves struggling with the same patterns their fathers struggled with: anger, distraction, work obsession, emotional distance, lust, even despite promising they’d be different? The truth is, fathers pass far more to their children than they realize. Not just beliefs or values, but habits, tone, priorities, and ways of relating that quietly shape the next generation.

In this episode of The Catholic Gentleman, John Heinen and Devin Schadt expose five hidden vices that fathers often pass on without ever intending to. They challenge men to see what their children are already learning from them, and how to break destructive cycles before they become generational.

The 5 Hidden Vices Fathers Pass to Their Children Without Even Realizing It

In this podcast episode, James and Dan discuss divine revelation through the lens of Vatican II&apos;s &quot;Dei Verbum,&quot; focusing on how God reveals Himself gradually, culminating in the Incarnation. They emphasize the Church&apos;s role in preserving and interpreting Scripture alongside Tradition, highlighting the need for contextual understanding and the guidance of the Magisterium. The importance of integrating the Old Testament with the New is discussed, showing the continuity in God&apos;s plan of salvation. They advocate for active scripture engagement through practices like Lectio Divina to deepen one&apos;s relationship with God. The episode concludes with a call to embrace God&apos;s will, even amidst fear, trusting in the peace and fulfillment it brings.

EP 126 - Dei Verbum: The Gradual Revelation of God

THE SLAYER OF DEMONS!...okay, that may not be a title given to St. Joseph, but it was a slip of the tongue by James and just maybe it will be added to his litany one day. For those of you who do not know, this is the year of St. Joseph as declared by Pope Francis!  This day and age is especially trying for families and most glaringly men. Turn to St. Joseph, the patron saint of our beautiful Church. St. Joseph is a man who was chosen by God to lead the Holy Family. He loved his wife and son more than anyone and his actions literally spoke volumes. There is now Josephology happening in our age! Some fun facts for you men about this incredible man: He is the patron saint of our beloved Catholic Church, unborn children, fathers, workers, travelers, immigrants, and a happy death. Feast Day: March 19th St. Joseph the Worker: May 1st, to counter the Communists&apos; May Day by Pope Pius XII Month of March is dedicated to St. Joseph Wednesday (yes, every Wednesday!) is dedicated to him as well. For a man who wasn&apos;t venerated deeply in the Church until the 15th century, we are certainly trying to catch up! In this episode, James and Fr. Dom will dive into all things St. Joseph, this incredible man who was truly a man of silence. The Gospels don&apos;t record a single word of this man&apos;s life but his actions have been written about for centuries. A man who gets spoken to four times by angels is a man we all must emulate and listen to. Since he didn&apos;t say a word, we must follow his actions.  Join us to find out why St. Joseph was depicted as an old man in early Catholic art, why James thinks St. Joseph should have a title added to his litany, how much St. Joseph loved our beloved mother, why St. Joseph was probably a young, strapping man and what the Gospels say in regards to this fact, and how we can take St. Joseph&apos;s faith and pray to him for it! Father Dom&apos;s Challenge: Think before you act and speak. Ask the Holy Spirit to enter in the simple moments of your life (or even the chaotic times) to direct your words and actions to fulfill His will. Men, the Holy Spirit will never steer you in the wrong direction. St. Joseph, pray for us!

WOF 515: Developments Contrasted with Corruptions (6 of 12)

He is what you might call a late bloomer with an amazing story of being far more active in sports now than he was at traditional youth, student, and post graduate ages, due to his upbringing. An adventure traveler, present day he participates in running, biking, hiking, and skiing. His devotion to his Catholic faith can be seen in that two months ago he put out a book that is designed to help business owners determine both when to sell and how to sell their companies, YET, by sharing his *personal* story, he achieved #1 Amazon New Release status in the Catholic Self Help category. (NOTE: This episode contains sensitive and emotional subject matter.)

CSR 161 Ed Valaitis

Is Christianity a useful religion to the West? Atheist Richard Dawkins recently claimed that, while still an atheist, he considers himself a "cultural Christian" because of Christianity's utility in supporting Western cultural and political values, which he laments are under attack. Former atheist Ayaan Hirsi Ali also recently shared that she became a Christian upon realizing that Christianity is necessary to preserve Western political norms. There are some complex and even troubling underlying questions about making the connection between Christianity and utility, especially as it relates to contemporary "Western values." How is the utility defined and in response to what specific societal goals? Is Christianity's utility limited to the West alone? Aren't there some "Western values" that are antithetical to Christianity?

WOF 439: Is Christianity Useful to the West?

In this episode, Bishop Barron discusses a recent New York Times article by David Brooks titled <a href= "https://www.nytimes.com/2019/01/03/opinion/self-care-individualism.html">"The Morality of Selfism: The Gospel of Saint You."</a> It's a tongue-in-cheek affirmation of a culture that puts tremendous emphasis on self, self-care, and self-display. Bishop Barron explores some of the dangerous outcomes of such a culture. A listener asks whether it's helpful or troubling that the Catholic tradition includes so many definitions of God.

The Spiritual Life (Dr. Brant Pitre) | Ep. 312

Raffaele D’Apolito joins the BeatiDudes for arguably the most wheels-off episode of Season 6. 
Paul Kolker, Nick Bezner, and Jeff Schiefelbein welcome an energetic Italian guest straight from Rome, turning the Tiny Table into a cultural exchange that somehow includes pronunciation coaching, a debate over what counts as “Italian” food in America, and a running gag that peaks when Olive Garden becomes the unofficial villain of the day. Beneath the comedy, Raffaele shares what brought him to the U.S., how a pilgrimage to Rome connected him with American friends and business opportunities, and why he believes most AI projects fail when companies chase tools without first fixing the underlying processes.
Raffaele also talks about his return to the faith after a season of drifting, describing how a surprisingly simple thought sparked a deeper reversion that led him back to confession, the Eucharist, and a growing love for the Traditional Latin Mass. He talks candidly about the role patience has played in his life, how he learned to stop forcing his own timeline, and how discerning relationships with clarity and peace matters more than rushing toward an outcome. By the end, he shares his vision to rebuild his company on stronger Catholic foundations and eventually establish roots in the U.S., inviting anyone interested in process-driven AI work to connect with him on LinkedIn as he builds “Cornerstone.”

From Vatican to Vatican Valley | Raffaele D’Apolito | Episode #283

In this conversation, James interviews Dr. Paul Thigpen about the importance of Mary in the Catholic faith and her role in spiritual warfare. Paul shares his personal journey of conversion to Catholicism and his deep love for the saints, especially Mary. They discuss the misconceptions about Mary and the Catholic view, emphasizing that Catholics do not worship her but honor and venerate her as the mother of God. Paul also explains why Mary is feared by demons and the power of her humility and obedience. Overall, the conversation highlights the profound impact Mary has on the lives of Catholics and her role in leading us closer to Jesus. In this conversation, Paul Thigpen discusses the testimony of demons and the confirmation from exorcists regarding the reality of spiritual warfare. He also explores the Church&apos;s caution in evaluating apparitions and the importance of discernment. Finally, he provides information on where to find his books. Key Points: <ul><li>Mary is highly revered in the Catholic faith as the mother of God and plays a significant role in spiritual warfare.</li><li>Misconceptions about Mary, such as worshiping her or seeing her as equal to God, are not accurate representations of Catholic belief.</li><li>Mary&apos;s humility and obedience are virtues that make her powerful against the forces of evil.</li><li>Mary&apos;s love for us and her desire to lead us to Jesus are evident in her intercession and the many apparitions approved by the Church. Demons testify to the power of Mary and the effectiveness of prayers like the Hail Mary.</li><li>Exorcists consistently report similar experiences and confirm the reality of spiritual warfare.</li></ul> Like what you heard?

Ep 109 - Crushing The Head of the Serpent with Dr. Paul Thigpen

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.

Ep 113 - A Saint for Our Times with Kaitlyn Mason

THIS FILM INTENDED FOR MATURE AUDIENCES. PARENTAL GUIDANCE SUGGESTED The life of a believer is a spiritual battle. Men have multiple spiritual weapons in the fight against Satan, and the stakes are high. Don O’Mara recounts his experience with abuse and addiction and finding forgiveness and freedom in Christ.<a href="https://www.kofc.org/en/campaigns/into-the-breach.html" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" style="background-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.04); color: rgb(63, 81, 181);">Into the Breach Website</a> | <a href="https://www.kofc.org/en/resources/faith-in-action-programs/faith/into-the-breach/11059-into-the-breach-video-series-study-guide.pdf" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" style="background-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.04); color: rgb(63, 81, 181);">Download Study Guide</a>

Into the Breach – Episode 10: Spiritual Warfare

&quot;Men, Trades, and the Language of Creation&quot;“A man’s way of life is to put things in order, both in the world and in his own soul.”In this episode, we dig into the profound intersection of faith, work, and masculinity. Join James Caldwell and Father Dom as they speak with David about Harmel Academy of the Trades. This Catholic trade school is transforming lives by equipping men with skills for both the workshop and the soul. This isn’t just about trades; it’s about fatherhood, brotherhood, and answering God’s call to sanctify work.Memorable Quotes:<ol><li>&quot;Work doesn’t just build walls; it builds men.&quot; – John Paul II’s wisdom on work resonates deeply throughout this conversation.</li><li>&quot;Creation itself is a language—a divine language inviting us to read, shape, and elevate it.&quot;</li><li>&quot;Men are apprentices of Christ. Our job is to show up and keep our eyes on the Master.&quot;</li></ol>Key Takeaways:<ol><li>The Sacredness of Work: Harmel Academy teaches men to see work as a path to holiness. Work isn&apos;t just a job; it&apos;s a participation in God’s creation.</li><li>Restoring Fatherhood: Fatherhood isn’t just biological—it’s spiritual and generative. Men are called to be stewards, builders, and protectors of their families and communities.</li><li>Community as Formation: Harmel creates a brotherhood where men grow together in prayer, work, and study, unlocking their potential as spiritual and practical leaders.</li><li>The Hierarchy of Work: As St. John Paul II taught, the primary value of work is in what it does to the worker—the sanctification of the person—before its societal contributions.</li><li>Attentiveness to God’s Will: True discipleship means asking, “Lord, what are we making here?” in every moment of work, even in the mundane.</li></ol>This episode is a call to action for men everywhere: to embrace their God-given roles as co-creators with Christ, to transform their work into worship, and to lead with humility and strength. Harmel Academy is shaping a new generation of men who bring faith into the workshop and the world.Ready to take the next step?

Ep 152 - Forging Men: How Work, Faith, and Brotherhood Transform Masculinity

THIS FILM INTENDED FOR MATURE AUDIENCES. PARENTAL GUIDANCE SUGGESTED Christ offers his grace through the sacraments. The Eucharist and Confession need to be central to every man’s life. Jared Zimmerer explores how his experience as a bodybuilder helps him understand aspects of the sacramental life.<a href="https://www.kofc.org/en/campaigns/into-the-breach.html" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" style="background-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.04); color: rgb(63, 81, 181);">Into the Breach Website</a> | <a href="https://www.kofc.org/en/resources/faith-in-action-programs/faith/into-the-breach/11059-into-the-breach-video-series-study-guide.pdf" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" style="background-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.04); color: rgb(63, 81, 181);">Download Study Guide</a>

Into the Breach – Episode 9: Sacramental Life

The Cross is not a symbol. It is a weapon. It is the key that unlocked Heaven, crushed Satan’s kingdom, and stands as the central reality of our Catholic faith. In this homily, Fr. Dom dives deep into the Feast of the Exaltation of the Holy Cross, the power of relics, and the meaning of the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass.Fr. Dom begins with something extraordinary: a documented relic of the True Cross. Not just a piece of history, but a Eucharistic relic, tied directly to the mystery of Christ’s Body and Blood. Men, this is not something to treat lightly. As Catholics, we are called to kneel, reverence, and recognize that even the smallest fragment of the Cross carries with it the full power of Christ’s victory.From there, we move into the heart of the liturgy. The Mass is not a community gathering. It is not about us. It is the re-presentation of Christ’s sacrifice on Calvary. Every altar, every crucifix, every movement of the priest points us back to this truth: the Mass is the Cross made present again in an unbloody way. If you want to know your faith, if you&apos;re going to grow as a Catholic man, you must learn the Mass.You will hear how the Old Testament foreshadows the Cross: the bronze serpent lifted in the desert, a sign of healing and freedom for those who look upon it. Just as the Israelites were saved from death by turning to the serpent on the pole, we are saved by looking upon Christ crucified. But to look upon Him requires something of us: repentance, confession, and obedience to the Church He founded.The challenge issued in this episode is simple yet piercing: stop treating the Mass as an obligation and start treating it as the greatest privilege of your life. If you truly knew what was happening, you would run to it. The Cross demands your reverence, your attention, and your sacrifice.Brothers, stop living like Mass is boring. The question is not whether the Mass is alive. The question is whether you are dead inside. Bring your struggles, your marriage, your children, your work, your sin, your hopes—all of it—to the altar. Lay it down. Unite it to the sacrifice of Christ. That is the only way to be the man God has called you to be.3 Powerful Quotes<ol><li>“The key that has unlocked heaven, the weapon that has destroyed Satan’s kingdom, the very piece of wood which God’s body hung from because He loves us so much.”</li><li>“The Mass is a re-presentation of the one-time sacrifice of Christ on Calvary in an unbloody, sacr</li></ol><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!

S2 Case #17- "The Gift", PT 1

Jim Hickey brings the spicy to The BeatiDudes by sharing a full-blown meal from his Dallas-based restaurant Charlie’s Creole Kitchen. Instead of finishing the show differently, the entire show takes place over the course of appetizers, main courses, and desserts. Jim was raised by a father who left the church and a mother who practiced her Christian faith across multiple dominions. He was the only one of his siblings to be Baptized in the Catholic Church, and he remembers attending Mass with his Irish grandmother growing up before entering RCIA as a young man. Jim was not a big man heading into high school, but after a major growth spurt—9 inches in two years—he knew he was being called to play football. After one year of junior college, Jim walked on to the University of Georgia football team. After college, Jim went to work for a former Heisman trophy winner at a beer company. His career then took him to sales for an education software company working closely with underprivileged youth. He realized his life was missing Jesus Christ somewhere during this time. Jim shares one of his guiding lights, the Fulton Sheen reflections on the seven last words of Christ. That launches a crazy deep exploration of faith and manhood, including talks of his time at the Christ Renews His Parish retreat and Jim’s calling to the pro-life movement.

Challenges and Triumphs: A History with Fr. Dom on the Holy Trinity

Recently, The New York Times featured <a href= "https://www.nytimes.com/2019/03/25/opinion/-philosophy-god-omniscience.html"> an op-ed by philosophy professor Peter Atteton</a>, who tried to show that the idea of God is incoherent. Bishop Barron responds to Atteton's points and shows how there are no logical problems with believing in God. A listener asks whether Catholic universities should begin offering an evangelization major or concentration.

The Sword of the Spirit

Today we'll take a look at what Thomas Aquinas has to say about our Lord's words in Matthew 6:6-7: But when you pray, go into your room and shut the door and pray to your Father who is in secret. And your Father who sees in secret will reward you. And when you pray, do not heap up empty phrases."

Your Father Who is in Secret | Bible Study W/ Aquinas

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’s mission of bringing the world closer to God. https://jointabella.com/

Heroic Brotherhood Summit: Juan Acosta

In this episode of The Manly Catholic, we dive deep into storge—the Greek word for affectionate, familial love. This is the natural love we feel for our parents, children, and those closest to us. It is the foundation of strong families and, ultimately, a strong society.But in today’s world, storge is under attack. Technology, busyness, and selfishness distract men from their most important role—loving and leading their families. Without storge, families crumble, and without strong families, society falls apart.How can you, as a Catholic man, reclaim this essential love? How can you fight for your family when the world wants you distracted, passive, and weak?Listen in as we explore: ✔️ What storge is and why it is critical for Catholic men ✔️ Biblical examples of storge, including Noah and St. Joseph ✔️ The final battle for the family—and why men must step up ✔️ The distractions that kill storge in modern life ✔️ How to strengthen storge through intentional actionWhy This Episode Matters:Men, you were created to lead, love, and protect. Storge is the love that allows you to do just that. If we neglect it, we risk losing what matters most—our families, our children’s future, and our role in God’s divine plan.This episode will challenge you to take action. No more passivity. No more excuses. It’s time to reclaim your role as the spiritual leader of your home.Key Takeaways:⚔️ Storge is the foundation of all other loves—without it, love cannot grow. ⚔️ Modern distractions (phones, work, hobbies) are robbing men of their ability to love properly. ⚔️ Your family is the battlefield—the final fight is for the home. Are you ready to fight? ⚔️ Simple, intentional actions can radically transform your marriage, fatherhood, and faith.Challenge for Listeners:This week, take one action to strengthen storge in your life: 🔥 Reclaim the Dinner Table – Eat with your family, no screens, and have real conversations. 🔥 Develop a Family Ritual – A Sunday meal, a nightly prayer, or a simple walk together—build connection through consistency. 🔥 Express Gratitude and Affection – Tell your wife, your kids, or your parents that you love them. Show it through actions, not just words. 🔥 Prioritize Presence Over Productivity – Set boundaries with work<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!

Virtue of Chivalry

Friends, Pope Emeritus Benedict XVI, the 265th pontiff of the Roman Catholic Church, has passed away at the age of 95 years old. In this special "Word on Fire Show" discussion, Brandon Vogt and I reflect on his life, impact, and key ideas and contributions. We specifically touch on five key areas: 1) True reform vs. false reform in the Church 2) Liturgical renewal 3) Importance of the Bible for theology 4) Synthesis of faith and reason 5) Christocentrism Links <ul> <li><a href= "http://wordonfire.org/benedict-resources">Bishop Barron's resources on Pope Benedict XVI</a></li> <li><a href="https://wordonfire.org/benedict">The Pope Benedict XVI Reader</a> (Word on Fire)</li> </ul> NOTE: Do you like this podcast? <a href="https://www.patreon.com/bishopbarron">Become a patron</a> and get some great perks for helping, like free books, bonus content, and more.

Into the Breach – Episode 2: Brotherhood

Catholic men — it’s time to wake up.The battle is real, and it’s personal. Welcome to Part 3 of the Daily Grind with Go.d If you&apos;re not actively fighting for your soul, your wife’s, and your children’s, you&apos;re losing ground. This is not a game. Satan is not playing around, and the culture of comfort is numbing us into spiritual death.This episode is a direct challenge to you. To stop sleepwalking through your vocation. To take spiritual warfare seriously. To stop blaming everyone else and start owning your mission as a man, husband, and father. I talk about the realities of hell, the lies of the world, and how most men are spiritually passive while pretending they’re doing enough. Spoiler: we&apos;re not.I walk through my own moments of cowardice; not to beat myself up, but to show that if we don’t face the hard truth, we’ll never change. I also offer a clear battle plan: Confession, the Rosary, fasting, sacramentals, and brotherhood. You need a weapon in one hand and a rosary in the other.Attend the <a href='https://www.eventbrite.com/e/strength-in-silence-ihm-mens-retreat-tickets-1309258600719?aff=oddtdtcreator'>Silent Retreat</a> in Grand Rapids, MI!🔥 3 Powerful Quotes from the Episode:<ol><li>“You are either advancing the Kingdom of God — or retreating in cowardice.”</li><li>“We have too many baptized men who are spiritually castrated. They’ve handed over their authority without a fight.”</li><li>“You’re not ‘too busy’ for prayer. You’re choosing something else over God — and that’s idolatry.”</li></ol>One Key Takeaway to Apply Immediately: Stop making excuses and get to Confession this week. If you’ve been in mortal sin or living lukewarm, you are vulnerable to Satan’s grip. This is your first step in reclaiming your authority and becoming the spiritual warrior God created you to be.<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!

Ep 160 - Your Vocation is Not An Obstacle, But Your Path to Holiness

Friends, in many parts of the world the Catholic Church is shrinking. Parishes are closing or merging, pastors are devising strategies of consolidation. But for the Church to flourish, we can't just manage decline. We need strategies for growth. That's what Brandon Vogt and I discuss on today's "The Word on Fire Show." A listener asks, why should Catholics be pro-life?

WOF 361: What's Our Church's Growth Strategy?

Competency...such a sexy topic, no? Crickets....chirp. We promise you will want to listen to this episode! Competency has a deep Catholic meaning that you won&apos;t want to miss. As men, we are called to be competent and wear many hats throughout our lives. As Catholics, as husbands, sons, fathers, brothers, employers...etc. You get it.

To be competent is to be fulfilling God&apos;s purpose in your life. It is that simple. However, there is much more to it then that otherwise why would we have made a podcast episode for you?!

Ep 32 - Ignorance is Bliss

Today, we’re digging into “Joseph Most Prudent, ”a man who didn’t just dodge the chaos but faced it head-on with wisdom and guts. He is the the kind of steady we’re chasing, men, and this episode’s your wake-up call to ditch the impulse and grab some foresight.We’re breaking down prudence—not some timid, thumb-twiddling caution, but practical, hard-hitting wisdom. Joseph’s a carpenter, not a loudmouth—measuring twice, cutting once, whether it’s wood or life. From quietly shielding Mary to hauling his family to Egypt in the dead of night, he’s all about calculated courage. I’ll get real with you too—my own temper’s a mess by 7 p.m., and I’m owning it. Prudence isn’t loud, but it’s strong, and it’s what turns hotheads into men who build something lasting.Here’s your challenge: Pick one decision you’ve been dodging—maybe a tough talk with your wife, a raise you deserve, or that temper itching to blow. Don’t wing it. Pray it out, think it through, then act by tomorrow night. Count to 10, hit a Hail Mary, lean on St. Joseph—make it deliberate, not rash. Push play now to hear how Joseph’s moves can sharpen yours. Lent’s not for coasting—it’s for stepping up, and I’m here to walk you through it.Hit that button, brothers. This one’s raw, packed with meat, and ready to light a fire under you. Let’s get prudent and get after it—together.Products and References Mentioned:<ul><li>The Bible: References include Matthew 1 (Joseph’s response to Mary’s pregnancy), Matthew 2 (flight to Egypt), and Proverbs 8:12 (“I, wisdom, dwell with prudence”).</li><li>New Advent: Cited for the definition of prudence as “right reason applied to practice.”</li><li>BuyMeACoffee.com/TMC: Support the podcast—link in show notes for donations from $5 to $50 monthly, with gear perks.</li></ul>3 Powerful Quotes:<ol><li>“Prudence isn’t just about being cautious or playing it safe. It’s practical wisdom. The ability to see what is right and do it. Even when it’s tough.”</li><li>“Inaction, men, is also an action. We cannot forget that sometimes it’s prudent to wait, to seek counsel. But you can wait too long, and that in itself is making a decision.”</li><li>“Prudence is quiet, men, but it is strong. It’s not a weakness. Joseph does not shout his plans from the rooftops—he’s working them out in his shop, in the night, in prayer.”</li></ol>Slow down before you snap—prudence starts now.

Day 14 - St. Joseph’s Playbook: Mastering Prudence When Life’s a Minefield

Brothers, Lent starts tomorrow. I invite you to journey this Lent with St. Joseph. Each day, we will give you a short reflection. 10-15 minutes. You can do 10-15 minutes, can&apos;t you? Patrick O’Hearn, Ryan Flaherty, Dr. Dan Schneider, and others join me for 40 days. It is all about St. Joseph. Ite ad Joseph. Go to Joseph this lent. Ask St. Joseph where you’re weak on trust and how to fix yourself. Care for yourself to serve your family better. St. Joseph crushed demons; you can crush excuses. Subscribe, share, and let’s roll!Products/References:<ul><li><a href='https://shopmercy.org/consecration-to-st-joseph-the-wonders-of-our-spiritual-father.html'>Consecration to St. Joseph </a>by Father Donald Calloway (book) – Get it, link in show notes.  </li><li>St. Joseph’s Terror of Demons <a href='https://portersofstjoseph.org/pray-with-us'>Prayer</a> – Our battle cry.  </li></ul>3 Powerful Quotes:<ol><li>&quot;St. Joseph’s Terror of Demons… smite the demons as they flee from you.&quot; – He’s our warrior—lean in!  </li><li>&quot;Silence is not weakness… it’s strength.&quot; – Stop talking, start acting.  </li><li>&quot;God’s just looking down and he’s saying, well, have you tried a nap?&quot; – Simple, brutal truth.</li></ol>1 Key Takeaway:Quit starving yourself of basics—water, sleep, strength—then offer it up for your wife or kids.

St. Joseph’s Challenge: Man Up This Lent

In this powerful episode of Heroic Stories, Jeff Joaquin shares his raw and emotional journey from a life of addiction, idolatry, and despair to a profound encounter with God's mercy. Raised in a devout Catholic family, Jeff's struggles began early, leading him down a path of alcoholism, drug abuse, and poor choices. A cocaine-induced heart attack at age 24 became the turning point, compelling him to call out to Jesus Christ in desperation.Through the sacrament of general confession, Jeff experienced the life-changing power of God's forgiveness, transforming his brokenness into a message of hope for others. Now a devoted husband, father, and faith-filled speaker, Jeff uses his past to inspire men to leave sin behind, embrace vulnerability, and rediscover their purpose in Christ.From near-death experiences to saving lives by sharing his testimony, Jeff's story is a testament to the power of redemption and the infinite mercy of God. If you're ready to be inspired by a true story of resilience and faith, this episode is a must-listen.Subscribe free to weekly Heroic Men email: <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://stories.heroicmen.org">https://stories.heroicmen.org</a> | ABOUT THIS SHOW |Heroic Stories—the series to strengthen Catholic men with raw stories of heroic grit &amp; faith.

161: Catherine of Sienna on Responding to Church Crises With/ Sr. Mary Madeline Todd, OP

What if everything you thought was your purpose&mdash;your calling, your plans, your identity&mdash;suddenly unraveled? That&rsquo;s what happened to Gabe when he left behind his dream of becoming a pastor, moved across the world, and found himself starting over with no roadmap, no money, and no clear direction.
In this raw and honest conversation, Gabe shares how he faced spiritual silence, identity confusion, and the pressure of being a young father while carrying the quiet weight of self-doubt. From the impact of It&rsquo;s a Wonderful Life to finding unexpected strength in St. Joseph and Mother Teresa, he opens up about the struggle of showing up when you feel unseen, and the power of doing the next right thing.
If you&rsquo;ve ever questioned your worth, your path, or whether you&rsquo;re making a difference at all, Gabe&rsquo;s journey will remind you that heroism isn&rsquo;t flashy&mdash;it&rsquo;s forged in the quiet, unseen acts of love and courage.

WOF 294: Bishop Barron Presents: Jason Blakely

Jeff Schiefelbein believes that real heroism isn&rsquo;t a viral moment. It&rsquo;s a dad who jumps into the sewage tank or sits by the NICU bed and refuses to stop praying when he&rsquo;s out of options. In the end, he says he wants to be a brother to dads in the trenches and build dignified work for his ice cream crew, the kind of man who is always ready &mdash; whether that means jumping into the tank or dropping everything to pray.

When a Father Has No Options | Jeff Shiefelbein | E5

Men, the battle is here. In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Jared Staudt from Exodus 90 to issue a bold call: prepare for spiritual war through St. Michael’s Lent, starting August 15th.Your marching orders have arrived. We dive deep into the origins and spiritual power of St. Michael’s Lent, a 40-day Catholic challenge inspired by the great St. Francis of Assisi and rooted in ancient tradition. Learn why this penitential season is critical for men today, how the Exodus 90 team has structured it for modern warriors, and why discipline, order, and sacrifice are the weapons we need now more than ever.You’ll learn the why behind each discipline and how each is crafted to bring order to your soul, sharpen your spiritual edge, and strengthen your mission as a man of God.We discuss:<ul><li>The spiritual and psychological warfare men face today</li><li>The demonic hatred of order and how discipline drives demons out</li><li>The role of St. Michael the Archangel in exorcisms and daily spiritual combat</li><li>Why rest, leisure, and celebrating the Lord’s Day are battle strategies, not indulgences</li><li>How true fraternity unlocks spiritual breakthroughs men cannot achieve alone</li></ul>Challenge Issued in this Episode: Step into the breach. Find a fraternity. Get the app. Sign up for St. Michael’s Lent. Offer your disciplines for your family. Wake up at 2 a.m. and pray like the Desert Fathers. Let your body rest and your soul fight. The Church needs men who are ready. Are you one of them?Key Takeaway:Order is a weapon. Demons hate structure. Your disciplines form a spiritual perimeter. Build it. Guard it. Live it.Three Powerful Quotes from the Episode:<ol><li>“When you wake up in the night and everyone else is asleep, you&apos;re not breaking off from work or putting your phone down — you&apos;re just entering right into prayer.”</li><li>“We&apos;re not called to suffer pointlessly. Every act of self-denial must have a purpose — for God, for your wife, for your children, for your brothers.”</li><li>“Saint Michael didn’t negotiate with evil. He cast it out. Men today need that same fire in their hearts.”</li></ol>Featured Resources &amp; Products:<ul><li>Exodus 90 App – <a href='https://exodus90.com/'>https://exodus90.com</a> --&gt; SIGN UP TODAY!</li><li>St. Michael’s Lent  – Begins August 15th</li><li></li></ul><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!

In this chapter, we will turn our attention to the bountiful evidence that supports this claim. We will begin with evidence from outside the Bible, and then turn to the evidence we can find from the Gospels and the rest of the New Testament.In this episode you will learn that ...■ A preponderance of evidence exists both in Scripture, specifically the Gospels, and in non-scriptural sources that support Jesus’ claim to be divine.■ The preaching of the Apostolic Church is remarkably consistent in its central claims about Jesus contained in the kerygmas.■ The New Testament accounts of Jesus’ life are trustworthy and persuasive.■ Most scholars conclude from the evidence that something happened to Jesus’ body after His death that is attributable to a supernatural cause.■ Accounts of near-death experiences correlate with certain details of Jesus’ Resurrection.About Fr Spitzer: Born in Honolulu, Hawaii, on May 16, 1952, Fr. Spitzer is a Catholic priest in the Jesuit order and is currently the President of the Magis Center of Reason and Faith (<a href="https://magiscenter.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" style="color: rgb(63, 81, 181);">magiscenter.com</a>).

Ep 137 - Taking Up Your Shield and Sword, A Conversation with Steve Kerekes

Happiness! The Series features interviews with well-known psychiatrists, celebrities, New Testament scholars, physicists, and priests that uncover the deeper answers to life's most profound questions.

Interviewees include Eduardo Verastegui, Gary Habermas, Leah Darrow, Dr. John Lennox, Dr. Jan Holden, Dr. Aaron Kheriaty, Fr. Robert J. Spitzer, S.J., PhD, and John Chavez.Using Fr. Spitzer's proven paradigm, ""The Four Levels of Happiness"", as our cornerstone (lesson 1), we move through the remaining six episodes dealing with unhappiness and depression, and then to evidence for our transcendent and eternal life.

Equipping Priests w/ Matthew Rudolph

Bishop Robert Barron is a bona fide bibliophile. Any quiet moment outside his holy hours, he can be found at his workbench writing a book or on his patio reading one.

WOF 060: New and Notable Books

EP 68 Q&A with Fr. Larry Richards -Living the Lord’s Prayer -The Reason For Our Hope Foundation

Emotions are your hidden superpower &mdash; but only if you know how to use them. In this eye-opening video, Marek Rudak, an executive coach with over 3,000 hours of experience at places like NASA and Fidelity, reveals how emotional intelligence (EQ) can transform your life.
Why do some leaders inspire results even without perfect technical skills? Why do some parents connect deeply with their kids, while others struggle? And why do smart people still make emotional mistakes that sabotage them? It all comes down to EQ &mdash; the ability to turn emotions from a liability into your greatest advantage.
You&rsquo;ll hear real stories, from overcoming toxic upbringings and divorce to becoming a better father, leader, and partner. Plus, discover the science behind how your brain processes emotion &mdash; and how mastering EQ can help you succeed at work, at home, and yes&hellip; even boost your income.

Essential Prayers for Catholic Men

In this episode, Matt sits down with Dr. Michael Barber—professor of Sacred Scripture and Theology at the Augustine Institute. (Fun fact: Dr. Barber was Matt's first college professor!)
 
Matt and Dr. Barber focus their conversation on the Gospels, particularly the historical accuracy of the Gospels, how much of the Gospel is fact vs. myth, evidence for the proof of Jesus' existence, the problems with Jesus Mythicism, what Historical Jesus Scholarship is and why it differs from belief, and much more.

Can Rich People Go to Heaven? | Fr. Gregory Pine, O.P.

Andrew Rawicki is back and showed up in style. His t-shirt features all 10 of his grandchildren, which is a sight to behold. After his recent retirement, Andrew has continued to pour his time and energy into his family and his work with Regnum Christi, where he currently serves as the local director for North Texas. He shares with us his journey to find Regnum Christi and his fun experiences with various communities throughout the US. He also talks about a recent moment of prayer when he accidentally referred to the Beatitudes as the BeatiDudes. We love this man. Andrew finishes the show by sharing a really cool story about a book he created called “Our Lady of the Highlands School.” The TBD question of the day is, “When was a recent time that you tried something for the first time?” <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.lucidprivateoffices.com/">Lucid Private Office</a><a href="https://spokestreet.com/">Spoke Street Media</a><a href="https://catholiccardgame.com/?sca_ref=4057467.xx2t04Acid">The Catholic Card Game</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>

Discernment, Spiritual Direction, and the Shirt that BROKE THE INTERNET | Andrew Rawicki | Episode #126

Whoa....an episode on Friday? You bet! Something special is coming next week. In this episode, James wraps up his discussion with Ryan Flaherty, a local from Ada, MI who attends St. Robert&apos;s of Newminster parish. Ryan is a husband and father of two and is passionate about all things spiritual warfare. He is basically a spokesperson for Fr. Chad Ripperger (we are also guilty as charged) and wants to help men yell with a battle-ax in one hand and the Rosary in the other hand. Or, give a good battle cry. Either one will work. Continue to listen to this finale episode (and extra special since it&apos;s on Friday) as James and Ryan discuss practical tips on how to prepare yourself to fight in the most epic and important fight we will ever enter into.  Like what you hear?

Ep 42 - Interview with Ryan Flaherty - Part 3

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 &quot;Milestone to Manhood,&quot; 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&apos;t want to miss this interview! James talks with the other Arms, David, to get the dad&apos;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/'>milestonetomandhood.com</a> for more info! Like what you heard?

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

EP 113 Q&A With Fr. Larry Richards - The Reason For Our Hope Foundation

What is sin? Are all sins created equal? In this episode of A Reason For Hope Podcast, Jack Garno and Dr. David Hajduk dive deep into the Catholic Church’s teaching on sin—original sin, mortal sin, venial sin, and the consequences of sin in Christian theology. We explore what the&nbsp;Bible&nbsp;says about sin, how&nbsp;moral theology&nbsp;helps us understand&nbsp;grave sin, and why the&nbsp;sacrament of reconciliation&nbsp;is essential to healing. You’ll hear insights on&nbsp;faith,&nbsp;penance, and the Church’s role in helping souls return to God. We also address the modern resistance to the idea of sin, especially regarding sexual morality, and whether the Church is "too obsessed" with sin.

WOW! If you have not checked out Part 1 of John&apos;s story yet stop right now. Click the back arrow. Download part 1. Grab some popcorn. Listen and watch on YouTube :). Now that you are all caught up, welcome to part 2! It may not be as riveting as part 1, but Fr. Dom does walk off the interview...keep listening to find out why. In the conclusion of this interview, we dive into what led John from moving to a man who hit rock bottom and then rose to the ashes to a man who is now in full-time ministry work. I highly recommend all men check out his program on his website titled &quot;<a href='https://justaguyinthepew.com/50-off-narrow-road'>The Narrow Road</a>.&quot; Satan was certainly after John and I am glad he persevered and is where he is today.

Ep 38 - Interview with John Edwards, Just A Guy in the Pew Part 2 - Ministry

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

James welcomes Connie Marshner to The Manly Catholic to discuss St. Patrick, the High Cross, ancient Irish Catholicism, and so much more in her latest book &quot;Monastery and High Cross: The Forgotten Eastern Roots of Irish Christianity.&quot;  She explains the influence of Eastern Christianity on Irish Christianity, the role of St. Patrick in the conversion of Ireland, and the evidence of early Christians in Ireland before St. Patrick. Marshner also explores the origins of the Irish High Cross and the unique aspects of Irish liturgy. The conversation highlights the importance of understanding our roots and the early history of the Church as men and Catholics.  Takeaways<ol><li>St. Patrick played a significant role in the conversion of Ireland, but there were already early Christians in Ireland before his arrival.</li><li>The Irish High Cross is a unique symbol of Irish Christianity, and its design has roots in Armenian and Egyptian traditions.</li><li>Understanding our roots and the early history of the Church is important for men and Catholics.

EP 59 Q&A With Fr. Larry Richards - The Reason For Our Hope Foundation

Jesse Romero is back! Now, this is a past episode, but after re-listening to it you will be fired up to go out there and preach about Jesus! From personal stories about his time as a cop encountering the devil to powerful messages to motivate men, this episode packs a punch, literally and figuratively. It is no wonder this episode garnished over 10k views on YouTube! To quote Mr. Romero directly from his website: “If your parish suffers from low energy, call me, I can jump-start it. I’m a full Gospel, Bible Believing, Born Again, Spirit Filled, Evangelical, Orthodox Catholic Christian, washed and empowered by the blood of Jesus.  With a Bible in one hand, with a rosary in my other hand, and with Jesus in my heart, you will hear the fullness of the Catholic faith in an evangelical style with devil-destroying theology.” You won&apos;t want to miss this epic episode.  <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!

Did JESUS Have to Come!? | Fr. Gregory Pine, O.P.

Hell fears the saints. Men have forgotten this. In this powerful conversation with author Patrick O’Hearn, we confront the reality of spiritual warfare and the heavenly allies God gives us for the fight. Patrick’s new book, <a href='https://sophiainstitute.com/product/the-most-powerful-saints-in-exorcisms/?oid=782&amp;affid=80'>The Most Powerful Saints in Exorcisms</a>, breaks open what every Catholic man needs to reclaim today: the saints are not passive figures from the past. They are trained warriors who continue to strike terror into demons and aid God’s people on the battlefield.This episode is a wake-up call. We explore why demons recoil at the names of the saints, why certain saints appear in exorcisms, the role of relics, and the mysterious way in which the saints continue their earthly mission by assisting us. Patrick explains why Mary is the “closer”, why Padre Pio, Mother Teresa, St. John Paul II, and St. Carlo Acutis are showing up in modern cases, and how every man can build real relationships with the saints who want to fight beside him.This episode challenges you to reject passive Christianity. To stop treating the saints as distant memories. To begin calling on them with confidence, asking specifically for their virtues, and living a life that strikes at hell instead of hiding from it.If you need a reminder that heaven is not silent and that you are not fighting alone, hit play. The saints are real, they are near, and they are powerful. But their help depends on whether you reach for them.Products / Resources Mentioned• <a href='https://sophiainstitute.com/product/the-most-powerful-saints-in-exorcisms/?oid=782&amp;affid=80'>The Most Powerful Saints in Exorcisms </a>– Sophia Institute Press • <a href='https://slayingdragonspress.com/'>Slaying Dragons Press</a> (Charles Fraune’s works) • <a href='https://www.amazon.com/Deliverance-Prayers-Fr-Chad-Ripperger/dp/154105671X'>Deliverance Prayers for the Laity</a> – Fr.

Ep 177 - The Saints Who Terrify Hell: Patrick O’Hearn on Spiritual Warfare and the Heavenly Warriors Fighting for You

In this episode, Father Dom gives a talk on what we should be most thankful for this holiday season, the Eucharist. Although we took a deep dive into this topic on earlier episodes of the podcast (see <a href='https://www.podpage.com/the-manly-catholic-1/ep-12-source-and-summit/'>Episode 12</a>, <a href='https://www.podpage.com/the-manly-catholic-1/ep-13-transubstantiation-and-bread-of-life-discourse/'>Episode 13</a>, and <a href='https://www.podpage.com/the-manly-catholic-1/ep-14-to-receive-or-not-to-receive-that-is-the-question/'>Episode 14</a>), sometimes we need a refresher course on what should truly be at the center of our lives. Father Dom takes you on a  deep dive into Holy Scripture, tracing the footprints from Genesis to Revelation that all point us towards the Eucharist. From the grandeur of Abraham, Moses, and David to the humbleness of Isaac and Melchizedek, we explore the covenant and its powerful connection to the Eucharist. In the footsteps of St. Ignatius and St. Justin Martyr, Fr. Dom wanders through the labyrinth of their profound writings about the Eucharist. Their unwavering belief that the Eucharist is not merely bread and wine, but the actual flesh and blood of Jesus Christ is truly illuminating. As we navigate through the remarkable Eucharistic miracles and the holy sacrifice of the Mass, we uncover the symbolism and significance of the priest&apos;s vestments. Like what you heard?

Ep 96 - Seeking the Eucharist: An In-depth Analysis of Christian Faith and Tradition with Fr. Dom

What if you could recalibrate your life to hear God’s voice above the noise and chaos of this world? From the 2nd Sunday of Lent, Fr. Dom dives deep into the heart of Lent, a season that’s not just about giving up chocolate or coffee, but about repositioning yourself to know, love, and serve God in a way that changes everything.We start with a piece of Scripture that echoes through Lent: “If today you hear the Lord’s voice, harden not your hearts.” It’s a call to action, brothers, and I’m breaking it down for you—why it matters, where to find His voice, and what happens when we tune out. From Abram’s 4,000-mile journey of faith 4,000 years ago to the transfiguration of Jesus on Mount Tabor, I connect the dots to show how these ancient stories aren’t just history—they’re blueprints for us today. You’ll hear about Abram’s covenant with God, a wild ritual with split animals that proves God’s promises are unbreakable, and how Jesus’ disfigured body on the cross leads to our glorified future.But here’s where it gets real: Lent isn’t just a 40-day slog through the desert. It’s a chance to meet Jesus where you’re at—messy, broken, or doubting—and let Him work miracles in your life. I’ll walk you through the power of the Eucharist, where science meets faith (yes, every Eucharistic miracle studied points to the flesh of Jesus’ wounded heart), and why submitting to God—tough as it is—unlocks a strength you didn’t know you had.Your Challenge: This week, carve out 15 minutes a day to sit in silence and listen for God’s voice.

Then, hit Mass and receive the Eucharist with intention, asking God to transform your heart as you consume His. It’s not easy, but it’s worth it. Listen now to discover how to make this Lent your turning point—because when you give your heart to the Lord, He doesn’t just take it; He transfigures it.

Discrimination of Demons

The March Challenge That Could Transform Your Faith is more than a call to action&mdash;it&rsquo;s a movement rooted in brotherhood, humility, and spiritual renewal. In this powerful conversation with Bishop William McGrattan of the Diocese of Calgary, discover why now is the time for men to rise&mdash;together. As Lent begins, this video invites Catholic men across Canada and beyond to take up a challenge that&rsquo;s already bearing fruit: a month-long journey inspired by St. Joseph, designed to strengthen faith, family, and the Church.
You'll hear the three priorities reshaping parishes, the role of humble service and visible witness, and why kneeling beside your children might be the most powerful thing you do this year. This isn&rsquo;t about perfection&mdash;it&rsquo;s about presence, responsibility, and rediscovering that you are called, you matter, and you belong. From personal stories to practical steps, this episode will inspire you to stop sitting on the sidelines and start living your mission.
