In 2011, during a quiet moment of Eucharistic Adoration, Deacon Harold Burke-Sivers felt an undeniable call from God: leave behind his 23-year law enforcement career and speak the Gospel to the world. He didn&rsquo;t have a plan. He didn&rsquo;t even want the job. Yet that one moment set him on a journey to 34 countries, preaching to priests in the remote mountains of Papua New Guinea, connecting with isolated communities, and inspiring men to embrace true brotherhood.&nbsp;
In this conversation, Deacon Harold shares how that leap of faith transformed his mission, his health, and his understanding of manhood. You&rsquo;ll hear about 100-pound weight loss, the power of prayer, the beauty of simplicity, and why St. Joseph remains the ultimate role model for men. If you&rsquo;ve ever felt unworthy, unprepared, or unsure of your next step &mdash; this story will change the way you see your calling.

Braden Sorbo just became Catholic&mdash;and it's not just his story, it's a sign of something bigger. The son of actor Kevin Sorbo, Braden grew up on Hollywood sets, but it was a deep dive into truth that brought him to the Catholic Church.&nbsp;
In this episode of Heroic Hotline, he opens up about what led to his conversion: a challenge from a friend, a serious look at the early Church, and the hunger for something real. He talks about masculinity, dating, loneliness, and why so many young men are tired of the culture&rsquo;s confusion. Braden&rsquo;s message is clear: the world needs faith, order, and strong men more than ever. Whether you're curious about Catholicism or just tired of feeling lost&mdash;this episode is a wake-up call.

The Radical Claim

This week we celebrate Holy Week. As we get closer to the end of this season of Lent, where are you spiritually? Have you been able to embrace the Lenten practices of fasting, praying and almsgiving? Have you been struggling to make time for prayer? Have you been going through the motions with little intentionality?

Now that we have arrived at the final week of Lent, it is time for us to really fixate our minds and hearts on the Paschal Mystery-the passion, death and resurrection of Jesus Christ. In this episode Jon Leonetti challenges all of us to make the most of this Holy Week.

#17 Holy Week

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.

What if the biggest thing holding men back... was the pain they never talk about?

You&rsquo;ll learn how spiritual bypass keeps men stuck, why vulnerability is the key to transformation, and what practical steps any man can take right now to begin healing. From confronting past trauma to building authentic brotherhood, this episode gives you a new lens for understanding what real strength looks like.
Whether you&rsquo;re battling burnout or just sensing something&rsquo;s off, this is a call to stop going it alone&mdash;and start becoming the man God created you to be.

The Church teaches that “above all, the main altar should be so placed and constructed that it is always seen to be the sign of Christ Himself. Today Deacon Harold talks more about Church Architacture. Also looking into Soulful Psalm 145:10-16

Church Architecture

EP 93 Q&A With Fr. Larry Richards - The Reason For Our Hope Foundation

Habemus Papam! The Church has a new pope—and he’s from Chicago.
In this episode, Father Dave and Deacon Bob react with joy, awe, and a healthy dose of disbelief to the election of Pope Leo XIV, a South Side Chicago native and fellow “Bob.” The first American pontiff, Leo XIV is an Augustinian, missionary, canon lawyer, and lifelong baseball fan with deep roots in both Villanova and Peru. His election is already making waves—and memes.
Before diving into Vatican news, the hosts process a different kind of drama: sports heartbreak. Bob relives the Cleveland Cavaliers’ playoff collapse—one for the record books—and the deep disappointment that followed. Father Dave offers perspective (and a hopeful prediction) before they shift gears to highlight Franciscan University's Commencement weekend. From Mary Rice Hasson’s bold defense of the human person to Bishop Andrew Cozzens’ catechetical preaching, the event was a joyful witness to faith and truth.
Finally, they unpack the significance of the name Leo, what this new pope may prioritize, and how the legacy of Pope Leo XIII—with his groundbreaking encyclicals on labor, justice, and the Holy Spirit—may resonate in the years ahead.
From Chicago sports to conclave suspense, from Catholic memes to Marian devotion, this episode is a fast-paced blend of humor, reverence, and hope for the Church’s future under a pope who, as Bob puts it, “plays Wordle with his brother and orders from Wawa.”

Fr. Dave Pivonka, TOR, and Deacon Bob Rice are friends who see humor and hope in a crazy world. Whether they are talking about sports, movies, politics, the Church, or their own lives, Fr. Dave and Dcn. Bob try to find Christ in all things, even in the messiness of today’s culture. “They that hope in the Lord will renew their strength” (Isaiah 40:31). Come be refreshed and renewed!

They That Hope

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

Join us in the pew this week as John and Victor reflect on their own seasons of hopelessness and what it means to feel stuck in patterns you can’t seem to break—whether it’s addiction, broken relationships, or the crushing belief that things will never get better.

But despair isn't the end. They also discuss that with Christ, you can fight for hope, even when you can’t feel it. When you keep showing up in prayer, the sacraments, scripture, and community, John and Victor share how choosing hope—even a hundred times a day—is the most courageous thing a man can do.

If you take anything from this podcast, know that you are not alone. Despair doesn’t get the final word when you place your trust in Christ and rely on the grace of the Holy Spirit.

Today Deacon Harold is talking about the Most Holy Trinity in today's Word of God Wednesday.

Most Holy Trinity

Men today are under siege. Our faith is mocked. Our masculinity is sidelined. Brotherhood fails around us. It’s a crisis like we’ve never seen before. How do we turn it around? | <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https:/heroicmen.org/alliance">Join the Heroic Alliance | Learn more!</a>500 years before Christ, King Nebuchadnezzar, the greatest warrior-king of the Babylonian empire rounded up and targeted the best Hebrew young men. He brainwashed their religion out of them, stripped them of their Hebrew identity, and demanded that they abandon their God - or face death.Today, Big Tech and broken education are brainwashing our children. Our youth have been robbed of their Christian identity. We are being challenged to abandon God. In those days of Hebrew persecution, Daniel and three men of heroic virtue refused to back down. They set an example of unfailing heroism in the middle of a brutal culture siege.What kind of men are we today? Do we know how to step up and take a stand for our faith, our families, and our future?Deacon Harold Burke-Sivers challenges men to join him live for a half hour of powerful storytelling, practical wisdom, and a roadmap to build the habits of a Heroic Man."Knowing that other men share my experience in this siege against my faith, my family, and my brothers, is crucial. I can connect with other men. I'm not alone. This is why Heroic Men matters! Brotherhood makes you stronger!" - Deacon Harold Burke-Sivers

How to be a Heroic Man with Deacon Harold Burke-Sivers

50% of young men abandon faith in the Church - and God altogether - because they believe faith and science are in conflict. More, they believe there is zero evidence for God, Jesus, and life after death. Today, there's more evidence than ever before for these, and a super-majority of young scientists declare they believe in God. Fr Spitzer's series is powerful and effective with young men between 13-24 years. Heroic Men is proud to partner with the Magis Center for Reason and Faith to bring men this essential series on the Catholic Faith and Science.Fr. Robert J. Spitzer, S.J., Ph.D. provides evidence and answers to the most pressing questions of our time: Do We Have Immortal Souls? Why Believe in God? Why Believe in Jesus? Who is Jesus? Why be Catholic?

EP 147 Q&A With Fr. Larry Richards - The Reason For Our Hope Foundation

Why The Rescue Project?

We passionately believe that the most urgent task is the compelling proclamation of the gospel, one that not only shares it in an attractive – and concentrated – way, but that also offers people a way of seeing reality, and of making sense of the world, history, and life that is vastly different from the story our modern culture tells.

Until this happens, the Christian faith is often experienced as a mere set of rules and disciplines, and simply going to Church isn’t likely to lead a person to embark on the great adventure that is following Jesus and continuing His mission of the rescuing of this world.  We don’t think most people have ever heard the gospel.

What is The Rescue Project?

The Rescue Project seeks to proclaim the gospel in a compelling and attractive way over eight weeks in a small group format. This experience is imbued with beauty, authentic humanity, and accompaniment.

Oh, and by the way it’s free!

Chapter 1: The Importance of Stories 

What if the day you lost your father was the day you became one? In this moving episode of Heroic Stories, Jay Wonacott opens up about the most painful turning point of his life&mdash;the sudden death of his dad&mdash;and how that loss became the moment he had to grow up, take responsibility, and lead with heart.
From tearful hospital visits and lucid dreams to finding spiritual strength in daily prayer and brotherhood, Jay shares how his father&rsquo;s legacy became his compass. He reveals how real heroism isn&rsquo;t found in grand gestures, but in showing up for your family, doing the hard emotional work, and learning how to integrate mind, heart, and soul.
If you've ever felt crushed by grief, unsure of how to step into leadership, or like you&rsquo;re still waiting for someone to show you the way&mdash;this story is for you. Jay&rsquo;s story is a roadmap for turning loss into legacy and fear into fortitude.

Simplicity of Faith: No Theology Degree Needed | Heroic Hotline | Jeff Lockert

Friends, did you know that nearly 60% of religious believers agree with the statement that “religion and science conflict with one another”? This tragic confusion is especially prevalent among young people. In today’s episode of “The Word on Fire Show,” Brandon Vogt and I discuss five ways to help young people escape this false dilemma and come to understand that there is no actual conflict between true faith and legitimate science. A listener asks, how can adult children evangelize their parents who have left the faith?

WOF 334: Religion and Science

What if being a hero wasn’t about being strong—but about being willing?Here’s how Sean Lynn went from chasing justice on the streets to confronting his own brokenness. After 33 years as a cop, he’d seen it all—addiction, violence, human trafficking. He was the guy who showed up, who took the hits, who delivered the worst news a parent could hear. But carrying that weight quietly almost crushed him.Everything shifted when Sean realized this wasn’t just a job—it was a vocation. A calling to serve not just with force, but with faith. That shift reframed every painful moment and revealed a God who was present in every scene, even the darkest ones.This is how Sean found peace—not by numbing out or powering through, but by connecting with other men, reclaiming quiet acts of heroism, and learning that God didn’t call him to be perfect. Just faithful.Join the Heroic Brotherhood: Our only community: <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://heroicmen.org/brotherhood">https://heroicmen.org/brotherhood</a>Pay it forward: Join the Heroic Alliance: <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://heroicmen.org/alliance">https://heroicmen.org/alliance</a>

33 Years as a Cop: A Story of Purpose and Grit with Sean Lynn

Word on Fire is celebrating its 25th anniversary this year. That’s twenty-five years of proclaiming the Gospel, evangelizing the culture, and working hard to bring people to—or back to—Christ and his Church. It’s worth pausing to look back to remember where it all began and how the ministry has grown along the way. What is Word on Fire’s origin story? When, where, and why did Bishop Barron—then Fr. Barron—first conceive of the idea to found Word on Fire? What were the early years like? What have been some major developments along the way? What obstacles were encountered, what lessons learned? And what does the future look like for the next five, ten, and even fifty years? A listener asks how he might be able to become a part of the Word on Fire religious order.  00:00 | Introduction 01:22 | Minnesota bishops visit state capital 02:55 | A brief look at Bishop Barron’s early priestly life 06:18 | Bishop Barron’s cathedral project 06:58 | Word on Fire’s beginning 09:49 | Beginning the Catholicism series 11:24 | Cardinal Francis George 14:30 | Early days with Fr.

<h2>We exist and desire to be loved and to love. St. Thomas Aquinas lists three appetites that are the basis for three loves. "And in each of these appetites, love is the principle of motion of the one tending into the end loved."</h2>
Here are a few points of discussion:
<ul>
 	<li>What are appetites?</li>
 	<li>What is the difference between natural, sensitive, and intellectual appetites?</li>
 	<li>How do those relate to love?</li>
 	<li>What are the differences between concupiscible and irascible appetites?</li>

Why A Man Needs (And Deserves) His Rest

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/

<h2>About our drink:</h2>
Thank you to Mr. Taylor Barranco for the drink. Fireside Whiskey is a 4 year aged Straight Bourbon that is a nice bourbon to have in your cabinet. It is dangerously smooth but still maintains all of the robust flavor gained from aging for more than 4 years in brand new white oak barrels. A nice end of summer dram.

<h2>About our topic:</h2>
<h3 class="p1">WHETHER VENGEANCE IS LAWFUL?</h3>
 I answer that, Vengeance consists in the infliction of a penal evil on one who has sinned. Accordingly, in the matter of vengeance, we must consider the mind of the avenger. For if his intention is directed chiefly to the evil of the person on whom he takes vengeance, and rests there, then his vengeance is altogether unlawful: because to take pleasure in another’s evil belongs to hatred, which is contrary to the charity whereby we are bound to love all men. Nor is it an excuse that he intends the evil of one who has unjustly inflicted evil on him, as neither is a man excused for hating one that hates him: for a man may not sin against another just because the latter has already sinned against him, since this is to be overcome by evil, which was forbidden by the Apostle, who says (<a href="https://biblia.com/reference/Ro12.21?resourceName=summaeng">Rom. [12:21]</a>): Be not overcome by evil, but overcome evil by good.
If, however, the avenger’s intention be directed chiefly to some good, to be obtained by means of the punishment of the person who has sinned (for instance that the sinner may amend, or at least that he may be restrained and others be not disturbed, that justice may be upheld, and God honoured), then vengeance may be lawful, provided other due circumstances be observed. 
<h3 class="p1">WHETHER VENGEANCE IS A SPECIAL VIRTUE?</h3>
I answer that, As the Philosopher states (Ethic. ii. 1), aptitude to virtue is in us by nature, but the complement of virtue is in us through habituation or some other cause. Hence it is evident that virtues perfect us so that we follow in due manner our natural inclinations, which belong to the natural right. Wherefore to every definite natural inclination there corresponds a special virtue. Now there is a special inclination of nature to remove harm, for which reason animals have the irascible power distinct from the concupiscible. Man resists harm by defending himself against wrongs, lest they be inflicted on him, or he avenges those which have already been inflicted on him, with the intention, not of harming, but of removing the harm done. And this belongs to vengeance, for Tully says (loc. cit.) that by vengeance we resist force, or wrong, and in general whatever is obscure<a href="https://biblia.com/books/vulgataclem/Ge">*</a> (i.e. derogatory), either by self-defense or by avenging it. Therefore vengeance is a special virtue.
<h3 class="p1">WHETHER VENGEANCE SHOULD BE WROUGHT BY MEANS OF PUNISHMENTS CUSTOMARY AMONG MEN? </h3>
I answer that, Vengeance is lawful and virtuous so far as it tends to the prevention of evil. Now some who are not influenced by motive of virtue are prevented from committing sin, through fear of losing those things which they love more than those they obtain by sinning, else fear would be no restraint to sin. Consequently vengeance for sin should be taken by depriving a man of what he loves most. Now the things which man loves most are life, bodily safety, his own freedom, and external goods such as riches, his country and his good name. Wherefore, according to Augustine’s reckoning (<a href="https://biblia.com/reference/Augustine.De_civ._Dei_21?resourceName=summaeng">De Civ. Dei xxi</a>.), Tully writes that the laws recognize eight kinds of punishment: namely, death, whereby man is deprived of life; stripes, retaliation, or the loss of eye for eye, whereby man forfeits his bodily safety; slavery, and imprisonment, whereby he is deprived of freedom; exile, whereby he is banished from his country; fines, whereby he is mulcted in his riches; ignominy, whereby he loses his good name.
<h3 class="p1">4 sins that cry to Heaven for Vengeance</h3>
1.       Murder – “the blood of able”
2.      Sodomy – “the sins of the Sodomites”
3.       Oppression of the poor – “cry of the people oppressed in Egypt”
4.      Injustice to the wage earner – not paying wages owed
a. Dt [24:14]-15 &#8211; 14 You shall not withhold the wages of poor and needy laborers, whether other Israelites or aliens who reside in your land in one of your towns. 15 You shall pay them their wages daily before sunset, because they are poor and their livelihood depends on them; otherwise they might cry to the Lord against you, and you would incur guilt.

How Demonic Shackles were Destroyed by CHRIST

Today Deacon Harold celebrates the fact that the Blessed Mother was conceived without Original Sin. This is not a difficult teaching to accept if we remember that it was God's original intention that all humans begin their existence in the family of God in the state of saving grace. Also we look at Soulful Psalm 118

The Immaculate Conception

Today, John, Sam, and Devin dive deep into the compelling topic of why men often seek respect but sometimes for misguided reasons. They explore how this desire for respect is etched into the core of a man's being, often intertwined with the desire for love. However, the hosts emphasize the need for this to be guided correctly because the opposite leads to vainglory, a sin that veers us off the virtuous path. Tune in as they articulate the essential rules that men should hold close to their hearts, guiding them on the journey to earn respect in a way that aligns with God's divine plan for their lives.Finally, each week we are going to answer one of your questions during the podcast. This week we have a question from a man who wants to know the relationship between habitual sins and addictions. If you have any questions, please, record yourself on your phone and send us the audio clip to <a href="mailto:podcast@catholicgentleman.com">podcast@catholicgentleman.com</a>.

&nbsp;
<blockquote>
<div>March 2nd is Ash Wednesday, and over a billion people will start living different in some way. Maybe giving up chocolate or alcohol, or whatever.</div>
For a lot of Catholics, Lent is a time of finding the easiest way to “give something up”. But, at the end of those 40 days, did that sacrifice really make a difference?

This year, there’s a new opportunity out there specifically for men that will actually help you grow closer to God and become a better man.

You’ve heard me talk about Exodus 90 — but let me tell you about Exodus Lent: a 40-day journey that will challenge you to dig a little deeper this year.

If your first reaction is: “I’m absolutely not taking cold showers” well you’re in luck: men who take on the Exodus Lent get to take warm showers, drink alcohol, and — when you’re with others — watch TV and sports. But don’t be fooled, this will still be a challenging 40 days of preparation for living the Christian life, for the rest of your life.

Here’s how it works:

First — Over the 40 days of Lent, men commit to daily prayer, setting aside a minimum of 20 minutes to spend with the Lord. Each day includes a scripture reading and reflection written to help men better understand, grow in, and live virtue.

Second — More than just giving up chocolate, men take up a range of disciplines and sacrifices for the season of Lent. Sweets, snacks, social media, are all gone.

Third — Men commit to a fraternity of 5-7 men. Each week, the fraternity meets to pray together, check in, hold each other accountable and encourage one another.

On Easter Sunday, you’ll walk away with a new and lasting understanding of what it means to live the full Christian life. Chocolate bunnies and all.

Virtue of Prudence with Fr. Gregory Pine

10 combat tours. 4,000 soldiers brought home alive. One daughter&rsquo;s cry for help &mdash; and suddenly, the battlefield was home. In this gripping episode of Heroic Stories, former Army Special Forces officer Sean Berg opens up about the wars he fought overseas &mdash; and the one he never saw coming: watching his teenage daughter spiral into a mental health crisis that nearly took her life.
From running combat missions in Afghanistan to holding his daughter after a suicide attempt, Sean shares the raw, unfiltered truth about masculinity, helplessness, faith, and the power of choosing family over career. What happens when a warrior trained for every scenario faces one he can&rsquo;t control? How do you hold onto your faith when everything seems lost? And what does it mean to live a life of purpose when your past identity no longer fits?
This is not just a story of survival &mdash; it&rsquo;s a story of surrender, redemption, and a father&rsquo;s decision to fight the right war. For every man who&rsquo;s ever felt broken, overwhelmed, or unsure how to lead &mdash; this conversation is a map home.

Episode 190: The Man in the Mirror

Have you ever just rubbed someone the wrong way? Or they just irk you a little bit? Maybe it is NOT an unsolvable mystery. Sometimes our reactions that seem over-the-top are actually steaming from wounded places deep-down in our hearts. Maybe it is time we REALLY look at ourselves in the mirror. 

In this episode with John and Victor, you will hear about:

- Keeping up the facade of “I’m fine” 
- Two people blinded to their own faults
- Complaining and blaming others is never the solution
- Practical tips for managing our own wounds!

The Man In The Mirror

In this episode, we welcome back Dr. Peter Kreeft, Professor of Philosophy at Boston College and renowned author and lecturer. We discuss the importance of philosophy and logic, and why philosophical errors are at the root of much of the crisis in our culture and in the Church. We also consider how we seem to live in a world “without reason,” in which rationality seems to be in short supply and common sense not so common.

A World without Reason | Dr. Peter Kreeft | R4H

Without a doubt St. Peter and St. Paul dominate Church history – their names are as synonymous with Christianity as Our Lord’s own name or that of His Blessed Mother.  But how did the two get along and what was their relationship like?  If you were a leader how would you lead a church with someone like St. Paul in it? St. Peter gives us an example of a charismatic leadership – humble and empowering.

How the Rosary Worked a Miracle in the Midst of COVID

Having just finished his studies at Xavier in New Orleans, Pradeep Thoppil started working at Tulane Medical Center shortly before Hurricane Katrina hit in 2005. As a first-year pharmacist, he was eager to help the team and volunteered to join the pre-hurricane team. He had no idea that when he entered the hospital that day, he would not leave until six and a half days later.Pradeep, a self-proclaimed weather nerd, shares when he realized that Katrina had made a turn and headed straight for New Orleans. What happened next is a wild tale of triumphs, trials, and the heroic efforts of the team inside the medical center. Pradeep’s recounting of the race against time includes flooding, the quick decision to move medications to higher floors, praying for people outside the hospital windows after the doors had to be locked for safety, the loss of power, water, and their food supply, creating and protecting a makeshift pharmacy, relocating patients into hallways as the storm’s pressure made the walls breath and windows break, and eventually moving patients up many flights of stairs and out to the parking garage for rooftop evacuation. At one point, Pradeep considered leaving the hospital to meet his parents, which led to an honest conversation with God in which Pradeep realized he was being called to stay for the long haul. Despite the trials that ensued, Pradeep knew he had made the right decision. Sharing this story with The BeatiDudes was not easy for Pradeep, as it brings back many deep and difficult emotions. Please join us in praying for Pradeep and all of those affected by natural disasters like Hurricane Katrina. <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>

Hurricane Katrina: The Race Against Time Inside Tulane Medical | Pradeep Thoppil | Episode #139

Jim Hickey leads the BeatiDudes through a unique bonus episode, reflecting on Tara Grinstead's 2005 disappearance and the subsequent investigative podcast featuring her story, “Up and Vanished.” Jim had dated Tara before her disappearance, and thanks to that podcast, the mystery was solved, justice was served, and Jim was also proven innocent. Reflecting on the tragedy of Tara’s story, Jim and The BeatiDudes open up the discussion of demonic attack that leads to suicide, depression, drug use, and the million distractions that keep us from following God in every moment. Jim points out that the antidote is simple—show up. We are called to show up for others.We are called to show up for our Church.We are called to show up for our community.

Showing Up | Jim Hickey | Episode #134

Alan Diaz didn’t find belonging in the streets of Harlem or in a gang; he found it in real brotherhood. Growing up without a father, he got pulled into the Bloods, searching for something that could never fill the void. The regret weighed heavy, but his story didn’t end there.Alan’s life took a turn when love and faith stepped in—starting with his wife, Daniela, and powerful mentors like Father Orlando and his brother Mike. They didn’t just support him; they showed him the way to redemption.Here’s the punchline: true strength isn’t about playing tough. It’s about humility, forgiveness, and the bonds you build in Christ’s love. Alan’s journey is proof that the hardest struggles can forge the most authentic relationships. And if you’re still chasing something real, it’s time to look in the right place.

From Gang Life to Grace: Alan Diaz's Journey to Seek Heroic Manhood

What if the end of your life was today&mdash;would it matter how you lived? In this gripping and raw reflection, &ldquo;Final Goal&rdquo; confronts the ultimate truth: you are going to die. And that&rsquo;s not a threat&mdash;it&rsquo;s a wake-up call. From a spit-take over a shocking book line to the death of a teenage hockey player, every story in this chapter is a reminder that life is short, fragile, and urgent. But more than fear, it offers purpose. The real question isn&rsquo;t just when you&rsquo;ll die&mdash;but who you&rsquo;re living for. <a href="http://heroicmen.org/be-a-man-guide" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Download the Heroic Men Guide</a>

Chapter 1: Final Goal

Brothers, we’re living in a time when manhood has been marginalized and undervalued, and it’s our duty to reclaim it. We have a dire need for brotherhood— a staggering 31% of Catholic men don't have a single friend! We men have a mandate from God on page 2 of Sacred Scripture: to serve, protect, and defend. But here’s the kicker: We can’t do it alone. Even Jesus needed help carrying His cross. We’re in a culture of compromise, where men have become too comfortable and complacent. It’s time to rise up and lead with courage, just like Matathias did during the epic wars of the Maccabees. We need to a new generation of Godly men. This isn’t just about us; it’s about the future of our families, our churches, and our culture. The strength we need comes from the Lord. So let’s band together and transform lives, because the harvest is plentiful, and the laborers are few. We need you, heroic men of God! <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://heroicmen.org/give">Donate to Heroic Men</a>

Get YOU in SPIRITUAL SHAPE | Brad Linder | Episode #147

Most Christians today recognize the importance of engaging our culture with the Gospel.  Changes are afoot that would radically alter the way that we raise our families and understand our fundamental freedoms.  This sense of urgency has led many to find the most effective ways to impact the culture.  How do we transform a culture before it transforms us?  One of the most overlooked methods, however, is the simplest: the direct encounter we can have with the people around us.  If cultural leadership were football, this would be the ground game, and this is the method our Lord, Himself, showed us.

DGT Episode 262 - Playing A Good Ground Game - Impact Culture For Christ Part 5

Reform was founded and started by Jackie. After years of tireless striving, stress, and compromised health as a result of her lifestyle, Jackie found her identity, healing, and wholeness in God. She found a more simple way; a way centered in faith, wellness, and freedom. Now, she is devoted to helping others find the same. Combining her passions of wellness, faith, and education, Jackie works with clients locally and around the world. Along the way, she discovered that one of her greatest passions was helping others build stronger connections to themselves, their health, and their faith through wellness at every level: physical, emotional and spiritual.   Show Sponsors: <a href= "https://strive21.com/matt">https://strive21.com/matt</a> <a href= "https://hallow.com/mattfradd">https://hallow.com/mattfradd</a> <a href= "https://www.reformwellness.co/">https://www.reformwellness.co/</a>

Wellness, Prayer, Nutrition, and Health Culture (Jackie Mulligan) | Ep. 463

The great mystery of Christmas is commemorating the historical event of the birth of the Messiah and simultaneously the preparation of the second coming of Christ. As St. John Paul II said, "Our whole life should be an 'advent', in vigilant expectation of Christ's final coming." Preparation and expectation. How we live our everyday lives matters. Join John and Victor as they address the temptation to get caught up in the busyness of Christmas and reject the gift of the Advent season. 

In this episode, John and Victor discuss:
-Advent as a time of training for the rest of our lives 
- How conforming our will to the Lord's can be a source of joy
- 5 ways to enter into Advent

The Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you." - Luke 1:35Our Lady, from the moment of her conception, was overshadowed by the Holy Spirit. As the Spouse of the Holy Spirit she models for us what our lives can look like when we say "yes" to God's will and fully give ourselves over to the actions of the Spirit of God. Mary's fiat led her to the cross, the empty tomb, and ultimately the upper room where she was once again overshadowed by the Holy Spirit. If we have the courage, as Mary did, to say yes to God's Spirit and to surrender our will to his, we too will experience the power of the Most High overshadowing us.<a href="https://wildgoose.tv/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Visit Wild Goose Website</a> | <a href="https://drive.google.com/file/d/1hOAVbPbyXfzLijwZdhtcqa9_9bHFiff1/view?usp=drive_link" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Download Study Guide</a>

The Spirit and Our Lady | Episode 4

What if the moment you built your life around—your career, your ambitions, your independence—was taken away in an instant? Dean faced that reality when he learned he was going blind. Mid-career, with a family relying on him, he spiraled into self-doubt and isolation. But instead of letting darkness consume him, he found new heroes, a deeper faith, and a mission to serve. From learning how to navigate a world without sight to walking into a maximum-security prison to bring hope to the forgotten, his story is one of resilience, Brotherhood, and faith. If you’ve ever felt lost, stuck, or alone, this conversation will challenge you to rethink what true strength looks like—and where to find it.Subscribe free to the weekly Heroic Men email: <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://stories.heroicmen.org">https://stories.heroicmen.org</a>For the price of a coffee, you can support our mission to reach 25,000 men in 2025. <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://heroicmen.org/give">https://heroicmen.org/give</a>| ABOUT HEROIC MEN |Heroic Men strengthens men to become missionary disciples, to bring more men to Jesus Christ.

Objection 2: Further, it is unfitting that elements hostile to one another should be brought under the mastership of one. But many animals are hostile to one another, as the sheep and the wolf. Therefore all animals were not brought under the mastership of man. Reply to Objection 2. In the opinion of some, those animals which now are fierce and kill others, would, in that state, have been tame, not only in regard to man, but also in regard to other animals. But this is quite unreasonable. For then ature of animals was not changed by man's sin, as if those whose nature now it is to devour the flesh of others, would then have lived on herbs, as the lion and falcon. Nor does Bede's gloss on Genesis 1:30, say that trees and herbs were given as food to all animals and birds, but to some. Thus there would have been a natural antipathy between some animals. They would not, however, on this account have been excepted from the mastership of man: as neither at present are they for that reason excepted from the mastership of God, Whose Providence has ordained all this. Of thisProvidence man would have been the executor, as appears even now in regard to domestic animals, since fowls are given by men as food to the trained falcon. ST 1. Q 96.

Preparing you and your family for Holy Mass

You can&rsquo;t live as a true Christian man on your own. In Chapter Four, Holy Spirit, we enter the heart of power, purpose, and surrender. This chapter kicks off a four-part focus on the forgotten third person of the Trinity&mdash;who isn&rsquo;t just a &ldquo;spiritual idea&rdquo; but the fire and force that makes Christian living possible. &ldquo;You will receive power,&rdquo; Jesus said. And most of us are still trying to live without it. <a href="http://heroicmen.org/be-a-man-guide" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Download the Heroic Men Guide</a>

Chapter 4: Holy Spirit

It has been used for centuries to elevate and to glorify the Mass, memorize Scripture, and harnessed as a weapon against Satan. Although we see little evidence of this in the modern context, men must understand that music has been given pride of place in the Divine Liturgy. Today, Sam and John are joined by a composer, convert, and man of wisdom, Paul Jernberg, who is working to correct bad Church music and restore the glory of music once again.Magnificat Institute - https://magnificatinstitute.orgListen to Paul's Great Music - https://www.youtube.com/@pauljernberg8950Connect with Paul - https://www.pauljernberg.comPaul's Mass - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FQfy1G_PirM&amp;t=2860s🔴 The Catholic Gentleman On PatreonJoin the movement of The Catholic Gentleman by supporting us and getting incredible gifts as a thank you for your support: https://patreon.com/catholicgentlemanPaul Jernberg was born in Chicago in 1953. Having studied piano from an early age, he pursued a career as a piano soloist and accompanist which began in the Midwest and continued in Sweden, where he lived and worked from 1983 to 1993. While in Europe, his musical work expanded to include composition and choral directing. After his reception into the Catholic Church in 1992, and his return to the US in 1993, his career was devoted to teaching, conducting, and composing at the service of Catholic schools and parishes in Illinois and Massachusetts. Since 2017 he has continued this three-fold work as founding director of the Magnificat Institute of Sacred Music, a non-profit organization now based in Lander, Wyoming.

You can support Pints With Aquinas here: Patreon.com/pwa --- Here's what Aquinas had to say about homosexuality (among other things): Wherever there occurs a special kind of deformity whereby the venereal act is rendered unbecoming, there is a determinate species of lust. This may occur in two ways: First, through being contrary to right reason, and this is common to all lustful vices; secondly, because, in addition, it is contrary to the natural order of the venereal act as becoming to the human race: and this is called "the unnatural vice." This may happen in several ways. First, by procuring pollution, without any copulation, for the sake of venereal pleasure: this pertains to the sin of "uncleanness" which some call "effeminacy." Secondly, by copulation with a thing of undue species, and this is called "bestiality." Thirdly, by copulation with an undue sex, male with male, or female with female, as the Apostle states (Romans 1:27): and this is called the "vice of sodomy." Fourthly, by not observing the natural manner of copulation, either as to undue means, or as to other monstrous and bestial manners of copulation. ST II-II, Q. 154, A. 11.
