Dan Donaldson didn’t start with faith; he started with skepticism. Raised in a non-practicing family, Mass felt like a mystery—confusing and distant. But that all changed when a series of divine encounters sparked his search for truth. The real turning point? Watching his son’s genuine connection to Scripture. That moment pushed Dan back to the Catholic Church, where he discovered the profound significance of the Eucharist—the source and summit of Catholic life. Now, Dan’s life revolves around the Eucharist, and he’s not keeping it to himself. He’s calling others to embrace the life-giving power that transformed him from a skeptic into a believer. If you’re searching for something real, Dan’s story is proof that the Eucharist can be the answer.

From Doubt to Devotion: Dan Donaldson's Journey to the Eucharist

Politics, Concentration Camps, &amp; St Catherine of Sienna? What do a medieval saint and a concentration camp survivor have to say to a modern man trying to do the right thing? A lot, it turns out. Deacon Eric Paige opens up about his own turning point&mdash;from a fast track in politics to a life of faith and service. He talks about why St. Catherine of Siena&rsquo;s fierce love and clear calling speak so deeply to him, and how Viktor Frankl&rsquo;s ability to find meaning in the worst darkness still lights the way today. This isn&rsquo;t about having it all figured out. It&rsquo;s about trusting God enough to take the next step.
For any man trying to show up for his family, his church, and himself&mdash;this is a story about courage, clarity, and how we keep going when the path isn&rsquo;t clear.

Catholic Infighting, Liturgy Wars, and Knowing Jesus (Michael Gormley) | Ep. 412

Deacon Harold sheds light on "why women can't be Deacons". Also looking into Soulful Psalm 44:18-20

Why Can’t Women Be Deacons

There’s a new pope—and he’s an Augustinian!  
In this episode, Father Dave and Deacon Bob discuss the election of Pope Leo XIV, the first member of the Order of St. Augustine to lead the Catholic Church. They explore why St. Augustine’s Confessions remains a spiritual masterpiece and how his vision of community, conversion, and interior prayer speaks to the Church’s call for renewal today. 
Naturally, they go off on many tangents, starting with a chilly trip to Cedar Point, detouring through spelling bee glory and NFL drama, and ending in Poland (via pilgrimage, not roller coaster). And yes, they say “Pope” a lot. Allegedly, it boosts downloads. (Spoiler: It works.) 
 
Highlighted Sections 
(00:00) T-Shirts, Field of Dreams, and the Pope Bump  
The episode opens with an early Father’s Day gift: a nostalgic T-shirt featuring <a href='https://www.80stees.com/products/silhouettes-if-you-build-it-he-will-come-field-of-dreams-t-shirt'>Field of Dreams</a>. This sparks a discussion about podcast stats and the surprisingly real “Pope bump,” where there seems to be an uptick in listeners anytime the pope is mentioned in the title. For science, they test it live. 
(03:45) Teacups, Tournaments, and the Cold Ride of Aging  
Deacon Bob recounts a brisk grandkid-filled day at <a href='https://www.cedarpoint.com/'>Cedar Point,</a> while Father Dave recaps the equally chilly <a href='https://www.thememorialtournament.com/'>Memorial Golf Tournament in Dublin, Ohio</a>. Along the way, they correct a <a href='https://www.pgatour.com/player/01869/jack-nicklaus'>Jack Nicklaus</a>/Jack Nicholson mix-up and debate whether roller coasters or golf better reveal our age. 
(10:28) Spelling Bees, Stage Fright, and Childhood Wins  
The <a href='https://spellingbee.com/'>Scripps National Spelling Bee</a> champ nails “éclaircissement,” then collapses with joy. That memory sparks their own stories: Father Dave’s catechism bee victory and Deacon Bob’s state theater auditions. They reflect on the pressure of performing, the resilience it builds, and how these moments shape us. 
(16:11) Pope Leo XIV, St. Augustine, and Why Confessions Still Matters  
The first Augustinian pope opens the door to rich reflections on St. Augustine’s enduring legacy. Father Dave and Deacon Bob spotlight <a href='https://www.amazon.com/Return-Heart-Spirituality-Augustines-Confessions/dp/1645854485'>Return to the Heart</a> by <a href='https://spt.franciscan.edu/faculty/owens-dr-shane/'>Dr. Shane Owens</a>, which unpacks the biblical themes in <a href='https://www.gutenberg.org/files/3296/3296-h/3296-h.htm'>Confessions</a> for today’s reader. Owens also recently joined Father Dave for an episode of <a href='https://faithandreason.com/presents-home/st-augustines-confessions-and-us/'>Franciscan University Presents</a> to discuss how Augustine’s life and writings continue to guide hearts back to Christ. 
(21:05) Pentecost, Pilgrimages, and the Road Ahead  
Pentecost kicks off a summer of spiritual encounters: <a href='https://www.instagram.com/heatherkhym/?hl=en'>Heather Khym</a> leads the first <a href='https://steubenvilleconferences.com/events/glory/'>Glory: A Women’s Gathering, </a>Deacon Bob heads to the <a href='https://www.instagram.com/heatherkhym/?hl=en'>LifeTeen Catholic Youth Ministry Convention,</a> and Father Dave departs for a <a href='https://faithandreason.com/pilgrimage/poland-pilgrimage/'>pilgrimage to Poland</a> to visit sites connected to St. John Paul II, St. Faustina, and St. Maximilian Kolbe. They share the joys of ministry on the move and the fresh hope the Holy Spirit always brings.

Lesson 6: Reading to Conversation

Heroic Men welcomes Dr. Ed Tse, founder of <a href="https://aiparenting.live/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">AIParenting.live</a>, to discuss AI's impact on society, specifically focusing on the challenges it presents to men's mental health and connections. Dan Donaldson welcomes you to this online event, emphasizes Heroic Men's mission to strengthen ministry to men across North America. Dr. Ed, founder of AI Parenting, shares his insights on AI and loneliness, highlighting the manipulation and isolation caused by AI-driven platforms.Key points discussed include:1. Manipulation: AI and social media are designed to manipulate users by showing content that maximizes engagement, often through sensational and emotional triggers.2. Isolation: Despite increasing connectivity, social media often leads to superficial connections and deeper feelings of loneliness.3. Navigation: To navigate the digital landscape, individuals need unshakeable beliefs and values to anchor themselves amidst the constant manipulation.4. Personal Data: Users must understand that sharing personal information online is akin to sharing their digital soul, which can be used to manipulate them.5. Decision Fatigue: Social media bombards users with countless decisions, draining their mental energy and affecting their ability to make important life choices.6. Emotional Control: Constant exposure to dopamine-inducing content on social media impacts motivation and mental health, leading to issues like addiction and reduced life satisfaction.7. Technology and Automation: Users must be cautious about what aspects of their lives they allow AI to automate, as it can lead to loss of control and increased manipulation.Dr. Ed encourages men to be proactive in their faith and digital interactions, urging them to share their stories and build authentic connections. The session concludes with a call to action for men to participate in the Heroic Leadership Summit and other events to strengthen their faith and community.

Be a Man! with Fr Larry Richards 

This Corpus Christi Sunday, we reflect on the history of God's relationship with us. From the Passover through to the Resurrection, Christ shows us how he lays down his body for us, you and me. And he laid it down even before anyone took it from him. We are wounded sinners, blessed by the body of the Son of God. Join Mike in his reflections on the final covenant between God and Creation. This week on the Heroic Word, Mike Donovan, a Heroic Leadership Coach from New York, shares his reflections on the Scripture readings for this Sunday. Join us in the <a href="https://heroicmen.circle.so/c/heroic-word/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Heroic Word</a> group in the Heroic Brotherhood!

Deacon Charlie Echeverry cuts through the noise and gets real about what’s missing in today’s world—authentic friendship and real missionary discipleship. He doesn't sugarcoat it: the loneliness epidemic we’re facing? It’s no accident. It's a product of tech overload and a culture that's forgotten what real connection looks like. He breaks it down with raw, personal stories, giving you four clear signs you're in a true brotherhood: showing up in prayer, valuing people over transactions, and going all-in for God and those around you. With a mix of humor and relentless passion, he lights a fire under you to build genuine relationships and take action in sharing Christ's love.

The Catholic Gentleman

The Man Who Lost His Head for the Truth is more than a clever title&mdash;it&rsquo;s a piercing reminder of what real conviction looks like. In this stirring talk, Father Deacon Andrew Bennett draws us into the fearless faith of St. Thomas More, the Lord Chancellor who defied a king and paid with his life. With stories pulled from trial transcripts and scenes that echo through Westminster Hall, this video asks the hard questions: What is truth? Who gets to define it? And are we, like More, willing to suffer for it?
From the bloody legacy of Henry VIII&rsquo;s supremacy to today&rsquo;s quiet coercions, this is a bold meditation on what it means to live&mdash;and die&mdash;for the truth. Blending historical drama with deep spiritual insight, the talk is a call to live a public faith in a world that demands silence. Whether you're a student, a professional, or simply a Catholic who&rsquo;s tired of hiding your beliefs, this is your moment to be inspired by a man who was never afraid to say no. &nbsp; | ABOUT HEROIC MEN | Heroic Men strengthens men to become missionary disciples, to bring more men to Jesus Christ.

A Reason for Hope

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.

What if the path to heroism didn&rsquo;t start with strength&mdash;but with panic?&nbsp; In The Hero&rsquo;s Journey That Started with Anxiety, we follow Nick Pierlot, a Catholic husband, father, and missionary, as he walks us through his darkest hour: a breakdown on a spiritual pilgrimage. In the face of crippling panic attacks, emotional repression, and a crisis of identity, Nick uncovers an unexpected truth&mdash;heroism begins not with power, but with surrender. From battling inner dragons to chopping down literal god-trees, from failing forward to forming unshakable faith, this episode is a raw, honest deep dive into how God makes men heroic. It&rsquo;s not about being the hero&mdash;it&rsquo;s about letting God be one in you.

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.

Why Sacrifice is SO Important | Fr. Gregory Pine, O.P.

What makes a Catholic man? It's not about doing more or being louder—it's about quiet heroism, relentless service, and mastering your inner self. Dominic walks around the essence of true masculinity inspired by powerful stories—from Aragorn to Tony Stark—looking for practical steps to step up as leaders, fathers, and warriors for good. The Oath from the talk: "Night gathers, and now my watch begins. It shall not end until my death. I pledge to love my wife, tend my responsibilities, and be a father to all children. I shall wear no crowns and win no glory. I shall live and die at my post. I am the sword in the darkness. I am the watcher on the walls. I am the fire that burns against the cold, the light that brings the dawn, the horn that wakes the sleepers, the shield that guards the realms of men. I pledge my life and honor to the Night’s Watch, for this night and all the nights to come.”ABOUT DOMINIC: Dominic de Souza is a cradle-Catholic passionate about how Faith, history, and science meet in today’s world. Born in New Zealand, studied in Fiji and France, was raised in Australia, and now living in the USA. He is riveted by the Catholic frontier between faith, science, and history. He is fixated on discovering healthy, disciplined, and courageous examples of manhood and fatherhood for himself, and his family. More from Dominic at https://smartcatholics.com/

St. Joseph as a Model for Fatherhood (Devin Schadt) | Ep. 504

What if the biggest thing holding men back... was the pain they never talk about?
In this raw and revealing episode, Catholic men&rsquo;s coach Kenneth Harouff joins Sean to unpack the hidden struggles men carry&mdash;addiction, isolation, spiritual burnout, emotional wounds&mdash;and why just &ldquo;being more spiritual&rdquo; isn&rsquo;t enough. With honesty and deep compassion, Kenneth shares how real healing begins when men stop hiding, start reaching out, and surround themselves with wise, courageous brothers.
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.

They That Hope

Today we chat with Thomas about why Christ rose from the dead and then go from there to take a look at how one might argue for the resurrection of Christ. --- HUGE THANKS to the following Patrons: Tom Dickson, Jack Buss, Sean McNicholl, Jed Florstat, Daniel Szafran, Phillip Hadden Katie Kuchar, Phillipe Ortiz, Russell T Potee, Sarah Jacob, Fernando Enrile --- Here's some resources to delve deeper: Gary Habermas - <a href= "http://www.garyhabermas.com/">http://www.garyhabermas.com/</a> William Lane Craig - <a href= "http://www.reasonablefaith.org/">http://www.reasonablefaith.org/</a> Trent Horn - <a href= "http://shop.catholic.com/why-believe-in-jesus-a-case-for-the-existence-divinity-and-resurrection-of-christ.html">http://shop.catholic.com/why-believe-in-jesus-a-case-for-the-existence-divinity-and-resurrection-of-christ.html</a> --- Here's the section I read from the Summa: It behooved Christ to rise again, for five reasons. First of all; for the commendation of Divine Justice, to which it belongs to exalt them who humble themselves for God's sake, according to Luke 1:52: "He hath put down the mighty from their seat, and hath exalted the humble." Consequently, because Christ humbled Himself even to the death of the Cross, from love and obedience to God, it behooved Him to be uplifted by God to a glorious resurrection; hence it is said in His Person (Psalm 138:2): "Thou hast known," i.e. approved, "my sitting down," i.e. My humiliation and Passion, "and my rising up," i.e. My glorification in the resurrection; as the gloss expounds. Secondly, for our instruction in the faith, since our belief in Christ's Godhead is confirmed by His rising again, because, according to 2 Corinthians 13:4, "although He was crucified through weakness, yet He liveth by the power of God." And therefore it is written (1 Corinthians 15:14): "If Christ be not risen again, then is our preaching vain, and our [Vulgate: 'your'] faith is also vain": and (Psalm 29:10): "What profit is there in my blood?" that is, in the shedding of My blood, "while I go down," as by various degrees of evils, "into corruption?" As though He were to answer: "None. 'For if I do not at once rise again but My body be corrupted, I shall preach to no one, I shall gain no one,'" as the gloss expounds. Thirdly, for the raising of our hope, since through seeing Christ, who is our head, rise again, we hope that we likewise shall rise again. Hence it is written (1 Corinthians 15:12): "Now if Christ be preached that He rose from the dead, how do some among you say, that there is no resurrection of the dead?" And (Job 19:25-27): "I know," that is with certainty of faith, "that my Redeemer," i.e. Christ, "liveth," having risen from the dead; "and" therefore "in the last day I shall rise out of the earth . . . this my hope is laid up in my bosom." Fourthly, to set in order the lives of the faithful: according to Romans 6:4: "As Christ is risen from the dead by the glory of the Father, so we also may walk in newness of life": and further on; "Christ rising from the dead dieth now no more; so do you also reckon that you are dead to sin, but alive to God." Fifthly, in order to complete the work of our salvation: because, just as for this reason did He endure evil things in dying that He might deliver us from evil, so was He glorified in rising again in order to advance us towards good things; according to Romans 4:25: "He was delivered up for our sins, and rose again for our justification."

53: Did Jesus Christ rise from the dead?

This Sunday, the Scripture readings (Matthew 12:46) seriously challenges us as men to think about who our family is. Our true family. Because even Christ pushed back on the crowds around him, and changed the game. <h2>Heroic Brotherhood Meetup</h2><a href="https://heroicmen.circle.so/c/events/heroic-word-live" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Join the live event</a> each Thursday with Mike, in the Heroic Brotherhood!

The FORGE Podcast

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

What if the deepest truth about you isn&rsquo;t your failures&mdash;but that you are loved? In &ldquo;Beloved Son,&rdquo; the most essential chapter of the book, we get a powerful reminder of our true identity&mdash;not as sinners, but as sons. This isn&rsquo;t just theory. It&rsquo;s personal, emotional, and deeply spiritual. Centered around Mark 1:11, where the Father says to Jesus, &ldquo;You are my beloved Son, with whom I am well pleased,&rdquo; this talk calls every man to hear those words for himself&mdash;and to believe them. <a href="http://heroicmen.org/be-a-man-guide" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Download the Heroic Men Guide</a>

Chapter 2: Beloved Son

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 message 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 invite men to this kickoff event for the essential series on the Catholic Faith and Science.<a href="https://storage2.snappages.site/GNDZHC/assets/files/Heroic-Men-Young-Men-Presentation-Aug-7--10.pdf" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Download Slides</a> | <a href="https://storage2.snappages.site/GNDZHC/assets/files/Notes-Fr-Robert-Spitzer-S.J-PH.D.-Real-E-38.pdf" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Download Notes</a>About Fr Spitzer: Born in Honolulu, Hawaii, on May 16, 1952, Fr.

This week on Living the Call, Deacon Charlie sits down with pro-life author and speaker Brett Attebery. After a powerful mid-life conversion to Christ that led him to seek healing for his role in the abortion of his own child, Brett left his career and devoted himself entirely to saving lives from abortion. Brett has an academic and professional background in economics and consumer product marketing.In this episode, Deacon talks with Brett about his cutting-edge approach to ending abortion, specifically by incorporating powerful business and marketing strategies into his work. He discusses the importance of investing heavily into healthcare efforts that will make abortion irrelevant to thriving, empowered, supported women.Brett’s website:&nbsp; <a href="https://brettattebery.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://brettattebery.com/</a>Brett’s Book: Your Pro-Life Bottom LineHeroic media website: <a href="https://heroicmedia.org/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://heroicmedia.org/</a>ThriVe website:&nbsp; <a href="https://thrivestlouis.org/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://thrivestlouis.org/</a>

Navy SEAL’s Journey: From Elite Leadership to Faithful Surrender with Sam Blair

The BeatiDudes welcome one of their favorite priests, Fr. Edwin Leonard, Pastor of St Ann Parish in Coppell, where the Dudes are parishioners with their families. Fr. Edwin shares the spirit-led way in which St. Ann Parish encourages participation and receives each person with abundant hospitality. While describing St. Ann’s openness to new ideas, it becomes clear to the Dudes that St. Ann follows the first rule of improv – “Yes, and” – as that is part of their unique approach to ministry. During Blessed are the Joke Makers, with 72 points of the line, the Dudes must address the question, “What is talked about at the pub,” as a new parent.Fr. Edwin shares exciting updates about St. Ann Parish, including the new missionary institute, the addition of 2 new priests, and a church renovation to bring the tabernacle into the main sanctuary of the parish. He then reflects on the beauty of all types of worship, from the most traditional to the most charismatic. Then during the TBD Question of the Day, the Dudes and Fr. Edwin reflect on a fight-or-flight moment from each of their lives. And you won’t want to miss the most amazing reverse Simpsons ending, during which Fr. Edwin is asked to sing Taylor Swift.<h2>Follow St. Ann Parish</h2><a href="https://www.stannparish.org/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">St Ann Parish, Greater Coppell Area</a><h2>Our Partners:</h2><a href="http://www.joinsolidarity.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Solidarity HealthShare</a>joinsolidarity.com <a href="https://sockreligious.com/pages/beatidudes" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Sock Religious (10% Discount)</a><a href="https://decidedexcellence.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Decided Excellence</a><a href="https://spokestreet.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Spoke Street Media</a><a href="https://divinecomedyimprov.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Divine Comedy</a><a href="https://www.undivided.life/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Undivided Life</a><h2>Follow The BeatiDudes:</h2><a href="https://www.undivided.life/podcasts" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">BeatiDudes Website</a><a href="https://www.linkedin.com/company/90739902/admin/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">LinkedIn</a><a href="https://www.facebook.com/TheBeatiDudesPodcast" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Facebook</a><a href="https://www.instagram.com/beatidudes/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Instagram</a><a href="https://twitter.com/The_BeatiDudes" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Twitter</a><a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/schiefelbein/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Jeff Schiefelbein on LinkedIn</a>BeatiDudes Theme Song and Music By<a href="https://thepencilbureau.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">The Pencil Bureau</a>

DOES YOUR PARISH say "Yes, And"?  | Fr. Edwin Leonard, Pastor of St. Ann Parish | Episode #023

Mary, Mother of God and Mother of the Church, points the way to Jesus.  Through her beautiful example of motherhood, fidelity, and holiness, all of humanity has the gift of a living signpost along the road to salvation.  Though she rose to extraordinary holiness, it is in the simple day-to-day events of home life that Mary shines as a model of simplicity, as well as love for her husband and child.  Mary's greatest desire is for us to find her Son.  Also Soulful Psalm 102:19-23

Catholic Heretics and Fundamentalists (Trent Horn) | Ep. 488

The BeatiDudes - Paul Kolker, Nick Bezner, and Jeff Schiefelbein - enter sacred territory with Fr. John Paul Kern, a Dominican Friar from New York City. Broadcasting once again from Catholics at the Shore, we dig deep into the heart of identity, the trials of discernment, and the peace that comes only from total surrender to God.Fr. John Paul shares his vocation story, his thoughts on monastic community, and the real cost of saying “yes” to God. It’s a conversation that swings from Notre Dame dorm-room conversions to monastery silence, from struggles with pride to joyful humility. Oh, and Jeff totally forgets what question he was asking (again).Highlights:• “A priest’s job is to get out of the way so the faithful can encounter Christ.”• The danger of identity confusion in today’s world - and how the monastery offers clarity.• Father’s advice for men discerning: “Listen, then move. Stop chasing certainty.”Fr. John Paul’s Wisdom Drop:“The more we receive who we are from God, the less we feel the need to define it for ourselves.”<h2>Our Partners:</h2><a href="https://sockreligious.com/pages/beatidudes" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Sock Religious (10% Discount)</a><a href="https://learnmore.solidarityhealthshare.org/beatidudes/?utm_source=podcast&amp;utm_campaign=BeatiDudes&amp;utm_content=why_solidarity" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Solidarity HealthShare</a><a href="https://aquinaswealth.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Aquinas Wealth Advisors</a><a href="https://www.lucidprivateoffices.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Lucid Private Office</a><a href="https://divinecomedyimprov.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Divine Comedy</a><a href="https://www.undivided.life/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Undivided Life</a><h2>Follow The BeatiDudes:</h2><a href="https://www.undivided.life/podcasts" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">BeatiDudes Website</a><a href="https://www.linkedin.com/company/90739902/admin/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">LinkedIn</a><a href="https://www.facebook.com/TheBeatiDudesPodcast" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Facebook</a><a href="https://www.instagram.com/beatidudes/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Instagram</a><a href="https://twitter.com/The_BeatiDudes" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Twitter</a><a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/schiefelbein/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Jeff Schiefelbein on LinkedIn</a>BeatiDudes Theme Song and Music By<a href="https://thepencilbureau.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">The Pencil Bureau</a> <a href="https://www.davemooremusic.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Dave Moore Music</a>

- How a relationship with the Church and Jesus Christ is the path to real freedom
- Practical tips from spiritual masters on how to live out this freedom


Men of the Cross with Jared Zimmerer

The Shroud of Turin is the most studied archeological object in human history, and Fr. Andrew Dalton joins the BeatiDudes for a journey into Shroud science that will move you regardless of where you are in your own faith walk. What the Gospels do not record, Shroud science does. But what does it reveal about the physical sufferings of the man? Are signs of Resurrection traced on the Shroud? How was this enigmatic image, which acts as a photonegative and encodes three-dimensional information, formed in the first place? Do these linen fibers contain the blood that was shed for our salvation?Fr. Andrew Dalton is a Catholic priest of the Legionaries of Christ and professor of theology at the Pontifical Athenaeum Regina Apostolorum in Rome. He teaches the Synoptic Gospels and Biblical Greek and Hebrew. Fr. Dalton obtained a Postgraduate Certificate in Shroud Studies in 2011 and became a board member of Othonia, an international center of investigation on the Shroud, in 2017. In 2018, he worked with Shroud experts worldwide to bring university-level studies to the English-speaking world. He also teaches the Biblical Theology of the Passion of the Christ for the Science and Faith Institute, which collaborates with the International Centre of Shroud Studies in Turin and the Giulio Ricci Diocesan Centre of Shroud Studies in Rome. <a href="https://www.othoniainternational.org" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Shroud Studies</a><h2>Our Partners:</h2><a href="https://sockreligious.com/pages/beatidudes" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Sock Religious (10% Discount)</a><a href="https://spokestreet.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Spoke Street Media</a><a href="https://divinecomedyimprov.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Divine Comedy</a><a href="https://www.undivided.life/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Undivided Life</a><h2>Follow The BeatiDudes:</h2><a href="https://www.undivided.life/podcasts" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">BeatiDudes Website</a><a href="https://www.linkedin.com/company/90739902/admin/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">LinkedIn</a><a href="https://www.facebook.com/TheBeatiDudesPodcast" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Facebook</a><a href="https://www.instagram.com/beatidudes/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Instagram</a><a href="https://twitter.com/The_BeatiDudes" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Twitter</a><a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/schiefelbein/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Jeff Schiefelbein on LinkedIn</a>BeatiDudes Theme Song and Music By<a href="https://thepencilbureau.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">The Pencil Bureau</a>

Dating Before and After Marriage w/ Lisa Cotter

Andy Churray drove all night from Wichita, Kansas, to share the mission and impact of Vagabond Missions. As Jesus was a vagabond during his earthly ministry, wandering to the margins of society to bring home the wanderers, Vagabond missionaries follow his example and bring the Good News to those the world ignores. Vagabond missionaries build friendships with and serve teens in urban and inner-city communities through weekly programs, outreach, and personal mentorship.When Bob and Kate Lesnefsky took their first positions in youth ministry at a parish in Schenectady, NY, they were surprised to find an inner-city community. They were even more surprised at how much fulfillment they found in bringing the Gospel to those on the margins. After four years in New York, Bob took what he believed at the time was the “dream” youth ministry job at a wealthy parish in Texas, but it only took a few months for him and Kate to realize that God was calling them back to the inner city.Teens in the inner city face a cycle of neglect, violence, and broken family life. This destructive environment has dire consequences for them and society. Vagabond Missions intervenes during this time of crisis by inviting them into a relationship with God and others. Through outreach and mentorship, teens experience hope for their lives and a place to call home. When teens tangibly experience Jesus, their lives are transformed.Follow <a href="https://vagabondmissions.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Vagabond Missions</a><h2>Our Partners:</h2><a href="https://sockreligious.com/pages/beatidudes" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Sock Religious (10% Discount)</a><a href="https://learnmore.solidarityhealthshare.org/beatidudes/?utm_source=podcast&amp;utm_campaign=BeatiDudes&amp;utm_content=why_solidarity" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Solidarity HealthShare</a><a href="https://aquinaswealth.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Aquinas Wealth Advisors</a><a href="https://www.lucidprivateoffices.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Lucid Private Office</a><a href="https://spokestreet.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Spoke Street Media</a><a href="https://catholiccardgame.com/?sca_ref=4057467.xx2t04Acid" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">The Catholic Card Game</a><a href="https://divinecomedyimprov.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Divine Comedy</a><a href="https://www.undivided.life/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Undivided Life</a><h2>Follow The BeatiDudes:</h2><a href="https://www.undivided.life/podcasts" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">BeatiDudes Website</a><a href="https://www.linkedin.com/company/90739902/admin/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">LinkedIn</a><a href="https://www.facebook.com/TheBeatiDudesPodcast" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Facebook</a><a href="https://www.instagram.com/beatidudes/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Instagram</a><a href="https://twitter.com/The_BeatiDudes" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Twitter</a><a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/schiefelbein/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Jeff Schiefelbein on LinkedIn</a> BeatiDudes Theme Song and Music By<a href="https://thepencilbureau.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">The Pencil Bureau</a>

How a Cradle "Invert" Catholic Encountered the Living God and Became a Warrior for the Faith | Guest Gary Michuta

Friends, today we discuss an interesting new book titled​​ <a href= "https://www.amazon.com/Strange-Rites-Religions-Godless-World/dp/1541762533/?tag=woonfi-20" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Strange Rites: New Religions for a Godless World</a> by Tara Isabella Burton. Burton argues that while younger generations are supposedly the most secular according to surveys, they’re actually notably religious—it’s just that they have adopted strange new religions. She claims today's Americans are embracing a kaleidoscopic panoply of spiritual traditions, rituals, and subcultures, from astrology and witchcraft to SoulCycle and the alt-right. In search of the deep and the real, they are finding meaning, purpose, ritual, and communities in ever-newer, ever-stranger ways. A listener asks, if religious faith is based on our response to the revealing God, how do we reconcile this with the plurality of religions?

WOF 322: Strange Rites

Replay Episode Did you watch the SEEK talk that broke the internet this year? Today’s guest is the man who gave that talk, Monsignor Shea. At the age of 34, Monsignor Shea became the youngest college president in the United States, appointed to the University of Mary in Bismarck. Today, we discuss his book, From Christendom to Apostolic Mission, which has been passed around through many Catholic circles. He shares how he has focused on the apostolic mission with his students and the need to implement this in our own parishes.

Apostolic Mission w/ Msgr. Shea (replay)

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.
