Freedom After a Homosexual Lifestyle w/ Kim Zember

Deacon Harold discusses his book on racism and the Catholic Church&#39;s response to this issue. He emphasizes the importance of building relationships and seeing the image of God in every person. Deacon Harold also shares personal experiences and insights on racial bias in law enforcement training.

Cycles in Business and the Christian Life

This is the Every Catholic Man Gospel DevotionalWhere a man can draw closer to Jesus Christ, learn the Catholic faith and grow in happiness by becoming a better Catholic Son and Catholic Father Today we hear Jesus, warn men not to falsely judge, condemn and bear grudges against others so that a man justly and generously gives to others. We’ll reflect upon need for every Catholic man to grow in the Virtue of Kindness so that he can perform many small acts of kindness every day of his life.  We’ll also consider the importance for every Catholic man to reject wrath and grow in the Virtue of Meekness so he respond to difficult people and situations with gentleness, patience and forgiveness.

Episode 29 - Jesus commands men not to judge and condemn others and warns of their own coming Judgment - Lenten Daily Gospel Bible Study - Monday March 6, 2023 - Lk 6:36-38

“We spend our time trying to avoid hell instead of trying to get to heaven. “

On this week’s episode John and Victor talk all about intentionality within the faith and being able to be purposeful. They discuss how hard It can be to pay attention to what God puts in front of you. Through scripture, John discusses how sin can distract us from the true purpose of life. Lastly, they discuss the importance of putting action behind the faith instead of being a bystander.

Chill Out, It’s Just Chili’s | Logan O’Brien | Episode #192

Today I chat with Dr. Robert Delfino about Thomas' 5th argument for God's existence. --- Here is the translation from the Fathers of the English Dominican Province (ST 1, Q. 2, A. 3.): "The fifth way is taken from the governance of the world. We see that things which lack intelligence, such as natural bodies, act for an end, and this is evident from their acting always, or nearly always, in the same way, so as to obtain the best result. Hence it is plain that not fortuitously, but designedly, do they achieve their end. Now whatever lacks intelligence cannot move towards an end, unless it be directed by some being endowed with knowledge and intelligence; as the arrow is shot to its mark by the archer. Therefore some intelligent being exists by whom all natural things are directed to their end; and this being we call God." Here's Delfino's translation:  The fifth way is taken from the governance of things. For we see some things that lack knowledge, namely natural bodies, act for the sake of some end. This is apparent from the fact that they always or most often act in the same way and achieve what is best [i.e., what fulfils their natural needs]. From this it is obvious that they achieve their end not by chance but by natural inclination (ex intentione). But those things that lack knowledge do not tend toward an end except under the direction of something with knowledge and intelligence, as in the case of an arrow from an archer. Therefore there is some intelligent being by whom all natural things (omnes res naturales) are ordered to an end, and this we call God. --- Defino's 10 step argument: 1. We see in nature that non-intelligent things act for a goal that is good with regularity. For example, it is in the nature of an electron to be attracted to protons, which helps to form atoms. 2. If electrons did not have this natural inclination then none of the elements on the periodic table you studied in Chemistry would form, which would mean that none of the physical life forms we know (including yourself!) would exist anywhere in the physical universe. But that would be bad, because life is good. 3. In the case of electrons being attracted to protons, we cannot ascribe such behavior to chance or to biological evolution. In the case of chance, chance would not explain why the electrons act with such regularity because chance refers to what happens rarely. 4. In the case of biological evolution, this is because the regularity of action in the case of electrons exists prior to biological evolution and is necessary in order to make biological evolution possible. 5. An intelligent cause can direct something for a goal that is good with regularity. For example, consider an archer who, with routine success, directs his arrows towards the animals he is hunting for food. However, these regular actions of the arrows, which are made of wood, do not represent the natural actions of wood. Instead, they represent something imposed on the wood of the arrows by the archer. This is similar to how a puppeteer imposes movement on a puppet, and how a watchmaker orders the part of a watch to tell time. 6. An intelligent cause is able to do this because having intelligence allows one to envision something mentally that does not yet exist physically (for example, envisioning a watch before it was invented). Non-intelligent matter cannot order itself to an end that is good precisely because it is incapable of thought. 7. However, human intelligence cannot explain why an electron has, within its own nature, an inclination to be attracted to protons because electrons exist prior to humans and humans could not exist without electrons already having these natural inclinations. 8. In our attempt to explain why electrons, as non-intelligent beings, have a natural inclination to be attracted to protons, which makes life possible, we have ruled out the material aspect of the electron, chance, biological evolution, and human intelligence. 9. Therefore, there must be some non-human intelligence that is responsible for the natural inclinations of electrons. 10. This non-human intelligence cannot achieve this by imposing activity on the electron in a manner similar to a puppeteer or a watchmaker. Instead, this non-human intelligence must be capable of endowing an electron with its being and nature.

OPPOSITE DAY!? Fr. Pine Interviews Matt!

Friends, many people in the Church, including the Holy Father, have been talking about “synodality.” But what is it? What does it mean? How can it help the Church, and what are possible dangers? That’s what Brandon Vogt and I discuss on today’s episode of “The Word on Fire Show.” A listener asks, what is appropriate to bring with you into Eucharistic Adoration? Links <ul> <li><a href="https://goodnewsconference.com/" target= "_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Good News Conference</a></li> </ul>

WOF 365: What is Synodality?

In 1960, Bill Sladek’s mom was told that she should not carry her baby to term due to her age and previous pregnancy issues. She told her doctor that “God doesn’t make mistakes” and welcomed baby Bill in June of that year. Bill’s wife, Mary, has a similar story about her heroic mom and the battle she endured to continue her pregnancy despite the health struggles she was facing at the time that led to her passing only months after Mary was born. This is a must-watch episode that reinforces the culture of life. It includes incredible stories about the mothers who made every sacrifice possible to bring Bill and Mary into the world, allowing their light to shine on many others. Bill has been a commercial real estate attorney in Dallas for 39 years and is a partner with Condon Tobin Sladek Thornton Nerenberg PLLC. Bill is an alum of the University of Notre Dame (Class of 1982) and received his law degree in 1985 from the University of Texas School of Law.Bill is a proud member of the Jesuit Dallas Class of 1978 and is currently Chair of the Development Committee of the Board of Trustees of the Jesuit College Preparatory School of Dallas Foundation. Bill is also the current president of the Board of Directors of the Notre Dame School of Dallas and a member of the Board of Management of the Semones YMCA. Bill and Mary (his wife of 40 years) have chaired several charity events, including the Bishop’s Golf Tournament, the Catholic Charities Bishop’s Gala, the Catholic Pro-Life Community’s Bishop’s Gala, and the Holy Trinity Seminary’s Spes Gregis Gala.Bill and Mary, both Dallas natives, began dating while Mary was a junior at Ursuline and Bill was a senior at Jesuit. They have five children—four boys (Billy, Brendan, Brian, and Baby Brett, their Angel Baby) and one daughter (Maddie, an Ursuline alum). They are parishioners at St. Monica Catholic Church.<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>

What's a BALLERINO | Peter Blute from Young Catholic Professionals, YCP | Episode #026

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

Today we'll begin a three part series on John 8:1-11 (The woman caught in adultery). 🔴 Patreon: <a href= "https://www.patreon.com/mattfradd">https://www.patreon.com/mattfradd</a> 📖 Here is the text from the ESV: but Jesus went to the Mount of Olives. Early in the morning, he came again to the temple. All the people came to him, and he sat down and taught them. The scribes and the Pharisees brought a woman who had been caught in adultery, and placing her in the midst they said to him, “Teacher, this woman has been caught in the act of adultery. Now in the Law, Moses commanded us to stone such women. So what do you say?” This they said to test him, that they might have some charge to bring against him. Jesus bent down and wrote with his finger on the ground. And as they continued to ask him, he stood up and said to them, “Let him who is without sin among you be the first to throw a stone at her.” And once more he bent down and wrote on the ground. But when they heard it, they went away one by one, beginning with the older ones, and Jesus was left alone with the woman standing before him. Jesus stood up and said to her, “Woman, where are they? Has no one condemned you?” She said, “No one, Lord.” And Jesus said, “Neither do I condemn you; go, and from now on sin no more.”

Dad Prepping

We know that St. Joseph was not present at the Cross but that doesn’t mean the Cross was not present for St. Joseph.  As a matter of fact the Cross is something that each one of us has to carry in order to enter into eternal life.  It’s the condition that our Savior laid down for true discipleship.  The Cross, present in St. Joseph, speaks to us about how God wants us to lead in the places that He has put us.

Understanding Suffering with Patrick Coffin

The ancient feast of the Epiphany, which means “appearance” or “manifestation,” actually celebrates three events in the life of Christ.  Deacon Harold breaks these open today as we also look more at Soulful Psalm 119.

Hosts Pat Lencioni and Chris Stefanick give a daily reflection for Christians in the workplace.

Meaning in our Work

Mitch Boersma and his wife Rosie have a gaggle of kids, with number 6 due towards the end of 2024. Their daily intention is to Catechize the children and grow a faithful Catholic family together.

Father’s Loving Care | Mitch Boersma | Episode #138

What difference is there between a Christian leader and a non-Christian leader?  Does being a Christian impact leadership?  Understanding the ways that it does is vital for us who are called by Christ to lead in our world today.  One place we can look to see what it means to lead as a Christian is the life of the Virgin Mary.  In this final segment of our thirteen part course on Mary’s leadership, we take a deeper look at what it means for her to rule as Queen of Heaven and Earth.

DGT Episode 241 - Leading With Christ - Mary Queen Of Leaders Part 13

We all know that leaders need to be strong and bold and brave.  We all know that a group’s success will depend in large proportion on the success of it’s leadership.  But what happens when leaders aren’t successful?  Have there ever been saints that showed us the other side of failure?  What can we learn from the stories of leaders, even Saints, who may have come up short from time to time.  Join me in my first part of the series, “Where Leaders Fail.”

DGT Episode 128 - Simon Peter - Where Leaders Fail Part 1

The Holy Catholic Church celebrates the Solemnity of All Saints. Every Catholic man can grow in happiness by building the Virtue of Gratitude so he can joyfully and reverently observe Holy Days and by growing in the Virtue of Piety so he can be fortified by the Communion of Saints.

A different post than usual. Hope you enjoy. Fr. John Sweeney didn’t believe in demons until he answered a call from one of his parishioners to come and bless her home because “the devil was after her” and discovered through the guidance of an old “traddie” priest how evil should be handled when it shows its face.

"The Word needs to be listened to attentively and heard in mind and heart with a hearing that is eminently receptive according to Guy Ouray, The Mass, p.36. Today Deacon Harold reflects on how silence is the best way to hear from God and in the Soulful Psalm we look at Psalm 28

How do you put yourself in a position in being led when you are a leader?
&hellip; Hosts Pat Lencioni and Chris Stefanick give a daily reflection for Christians in the workplace.

Learning to Follow

We look for Jesus in churches, in prayer, and in scripture; but we can forget that Jesus presents Himself physically to us in the person right next to us.  We often see the worst in others and fail to see God Himself. 

Slow down this week to consider every person you encounter this week, reflect on how you treat them? Would your interactions have changed if you saw them as Jesus Christ? It is never too late to do more for your neighbor.
