Spiritual warfare is real — but it’s often misunderstood. In this episode of A Reason for Hope, Alanis and Matt delve into what spiritual warfare truly entails in everyday Catholic life. From anxiety and distraction to temptation, fear, and isolation, this conversation sheds light on how the enemy works subtly — and how Christ has already given us everything we need to overcome. Together, we break down:<ul><li>The three types of spiritual warfare (oppression, obsession, possession)</li><li>Why Hollywood gets demons and exorcism wrong</li><li>How spiritual attacks often increase when you’re walking in God’s will</li><li>The connection between mental health, anxiety, and spiritual warfare</li><li>Why the devil thrives on distraction, isolation, and fear</li><li>The power of Scripture, fasting, order, silence, and the sacraments</li><li>Why community is one of the strongest weapons against the enemy</li><li>How hope, grace, and childlike dependence on God lead to victory</li></ul> This is not a fear-based conversation. It’s a Catholic, Christ-centered discussion rooted in Scripture, Church teaching, and lived experience — meant to bring clarity, peace, and hope. If you’ve ever wondered: <ul><li>Am I under spiritual attack?</li><li>Why do anxiety and temptation feel so intense?</li><li>How do I fight spiritual battles as a Catholic?</li></ul>— this episode is for you. 📿 “The battle belongs to the Lord.” Hope doesn’t disappoint. -Support our Sponsors-<a href="https://bit.ly/4pd2t9B" target="_blank" style="color: blue;">Magnifier</a>&nbsp;-&nbsp;An exciting new magazine to awaken wonder in children ages 7–12.<a href="https://bit.ly/44nYYUw" target="_blank" style="color: blue;">Scapulars.com</a>&nbsp;- Divine protection in life and death with the most durable, comfortable scapulars ever made. -Support Our Mission-<a href="https://arrayofhope.org/donate" target="_blank" style="color: blue;">Donate Here</a><a href="https://arrayofhope.org/events/" target="_blank" style="color: blue;">Book an Event</a> -Follow Us On Social Media-Facebook:&nbsp;<a href="https://facebook.com/r4hpodcast" target="_blank" style="color: blue;">https://facebook.com/r4hpodcast</a>Instagram:&nbsp;<a href="https://instagram.com/r4hpodcast" target="_blank" style="color: blue;">https://instagram.com/r4hpodcast</a>YouTube:&nbsp;<a href="https://youtube.com/@R4HPodcast" target="_blank" style="color: blue;">https://youtube.com/@R4HPodcast</a>TikTok:<a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@r4hpodcast" target="_blank" style="color: blue;">&nbsp;https://www.tiktok.com/@r4hpodcast</a> ⏰Timecode⏰00:00 Introduction03:20 What is Spiritual Warfare?11:31 What are the devil's abilities?12:49 Common Tactics of the Devil20:09 The Power of Fasting21:51 Practical Tips from an Exorcist to Combat Spiritual Warfare27:37 What are the Devils Motives? 30:08 Why Fear is Sinful31:14 Importance of Community 36:08 Hope in the Darkness

How to Recognize Spiritual Warfare (And How to Combat It)

Most men today feel torn in a dozen directions. Family, work, faith, pressure, expectations, comparison, and the relentless noise of a culture that confuses success with self-promotion.
In this conversation, Jeff Schiefelbein dismantles those false narratives.
He reveals a radically Catholic vision of leadership and manhood built not on ego, luck, or hustle, but on integrity, stewardship, and the courage to live the life God is actually calling you to live.

Overcome Fear and Persevere w/ Jeff Schiefelbein

Loneliness is one of the most widespread and least talked about struggles facing men today. John and Victor name what so many feel but rarely say out loud, the quiet isolation that exists even in homes, marriages, parishes, and pews filled with people.

If you have ever felt unseen, disconnected, or like you were carrying life on your own, this conversation is both a challenge and an invitation.

The Silent Epidemic

Sooner or later, every believer runs into a collision between what we hoped God would do and what He is actually doing. In this episode, John continues his reflection on grief and adversity by diving into one of the hardest realities of faith: wrestling with God when trust clashes with fear and our need for control.

If you are in a season that feels confusing, unfair, or out of your control, this episode is an invitation to stay in relationship, pray honestly, release control, and let the struggle refine you. Wrestling with God is not the end of faith. It may be the beginning of deeper trust.

Wrestling with God: Where Trust Collides with Control

This Ash Wednesday, Fr. Ken Geraci and John Heinen go straight to the heart of Lent’s first command: repent and believe.

We're focusing on two concrete actions that we avoid until we're desperate: a real examination of conscience and a clean, simple confession. Not scrupulosity. Not vague generalities. An honest inventory of blind spots, weak spots, compromises, and missed opportunities for virtue.

The Lent Resolution We All Need | Fr. Ken Geraci & John Heinen

What if your spiritual life didn&rsquo;t have to fall apart every time life got hectic? In this episode, Tom Hornichek and Dean Patterson tackle the exact struggles Catholic men face trying to pray consistently in a world of deadlines, distractions, and daily chaos. Starting from personal stories of lukewarm faith, burnout, and spiritual drift, they chart a path toward a simple, sustainable prayer life built for real men with real responsibilities.
Discover why routine beats intensity, how apps and tools like Amen and Magnificat can jumpstart your mornings, and why short prayers&mdash;like an Our Father on the drive to work&mdash;can anchor your soul. You&rsquo;ll hear how the rosary became more than just &ldquo;something old Catholic ladies do,&rdquo; why praying without ceasing isn&rsquo;t as mysterious as it sounds, and how praying like a warrior can actually change your life&mdash;and your family.
If you&rsquo;ve ever felt guilty, inconsistent, or overwhelmed about prayer, this is your episode. You&rsquo;ll leave with encouragement, practical tools, and the conviction that even five minutes with God can turn your entire day around.

He “offered it up” before he was Catholic!

Men today are often lost and quietly confused. Some know they should strive for more, yet feel strangely unmoved to pursue it. Others are driven but stuck, spinning their wheels, repeating the same habits and even the same sins, wondering why nothing ever changes. Still others feel unambitious, listless, and disengaged, moving from obligation to obligation without a clear sense of direction. In this episode, John Heinen and Devin Schadt name a reality they see everywhere: men who are not evil or careless, but internally stalled, unsure why they never seem to get ahead. 
Drawing on the work of Dallas Willard and their own experience walking with men, John and Devin unpack a simple but necessary framework for real change: Vision, Intention, and Means. They explore why some men burn with misdirected ambition while others drift without desire, how both stem from the same interior problem, and why a man’s belief in heaven, whether real or merely theoretical, shapes how he lives today. 🟢 Join over a 1000 men inside of Catholic Gentleman+ and get 33 sessions of exclusive formation, daily saint quotes, dozens of books, and a lot more: https://catholicgentlemanplus.com 👉 Get Devin Schadt’s book The Rule: https://sophiainstitute.com/product/the-rule/ COUPON CODE for 20% Off: Gentleman20 Video Producer - Pietro Damasceno

No. 1 Reason Men Struggle to Get Ahead

Fr. Gregory Pine, O.P. joins Matt Fradd for an in-depth conversation about Eucharistic miracles, the real presence of Christ, and the spiritual life. Fr. Pine shares his research on miraculous hosts that have turned to human heart tissue, how to detect pride and narcissism in ourselves, and offers practical wisdom on prayer, the dangers of social media, and why showing up in God's presence, even with our mess, is what Jesus desires most.

Mind blowing Eucharistic Miracles (Fr. Gregory Pine, O.P.) Ep. 566

In this episode, Deacon talks with Todd Dailey, founder of Eternize, about his journey from spiritual autopilot back to a deeper faith and how it led him to create the world's first haptic cross—a wearable device that gently vibrates to remind you of God's presence throughout the day. They explore the intersection of faith and technology, contrasting dystopian AI wearables with tools that foster real prayer habits rooted in Catholic traditions like the Angelus. Todd shares powerful testimonials, insights on staying spiritually grounded amid rapid tech advances, and his vision for using innovation to keep eternity in focus.Visit myeternize.com (use code "Living the Call" for a listener discount) to learn more about the Eternize Cross.

How Technology Can Point Us To Reality | Todd Dailey

Men treat Lent as optional. However, if this were the case, Christ would NOT have begun His public ministry with the command to repent. Yet most Catholic men approach Lent as if it were extra credit — giving something up, struggling through forty days, and returning to the same patterns unchanged. In this episode, John Heinen and Devin Schadt discuss the real reason Lent exists. Penance is not a spiritual accessory, and conversion is not reserved for dramatic moments of crisis. Lent is ordered toward metanoia, a real turning away from sin and a deliberate turning toward Christ. 
Together, they clarify what penance actually means in Scripture and tradition, why many men resist it, and why discipline without direction produces little lasting fruit. Most importantly, they lay out a concrete three-step plan to help men structure Lent intentionally, not as a seasonal effort, but as a path toward becoming like Christ.

<h2>100 years ago, if you were talking about teenagers, no one would know what you were talking about. What are the ramifications of creating this new category in society and in the Church?</h2>
When teenagers were revoked from the adults category, there were isolated into their own classification. Not grouped with adults meant they were able in many ways to continue the way of life they knew for their whole existence but with more bodily maturity too.
Here are a few points of discussion:
<ul>
 	<li>2 age categories for all of time: Adults and Children</li>
 	<li>Culture of the 1960's and 1970's</li>
 	<li>Youth culture over adult culture</li>
 	<li>God and the faith are "ever ancient and ever new" not forever young</li>
 	<li>What are the effects of this in youth ministry?</li>
 	<li>Maturity is restrained and unfree, bound to God and the crosses He sends and the people He binds us to. True freedom is not youthful unattachment, but the loss of the types of freedoms the world pursues</li>

About the Topic:
“And when you fast, do not look dismal, like the hypocrites, for they disfigure  their faces that their fasting may be seen by men. Truly, I say to you, they have their reward. But when you fast, anoint your head and wash your face, that your fasting may not be seen by men but by your Father who is in secret; and your Father whose in secret will reward you.” Matthew 6:16-18
Jesus says “when you fast” not “if you fast”. He expected us to fast. But we should not fast out of dieting or pride, but out of love of God. 
Fasting improves us spiritually in several ways (from <a href="https://jimmyakin.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Jimmy Akin</a>):

<ol class="ol1">
 	<li class="li1">We express our recognition that spiritual things are more important than physical things.</li>
 	<li class="li1">We learn to deny ourselves pleasures, even in spite of pain. (Increase in fortitude)</li>
 	<li class="li1">We declare that we recognize the need to reform and to get closer to God.</li>
 	<li class="li1">We willingly embrace the hunger fasting produces as a sign of being willing to shoulder the burdens of others (Col. 1:24 - “Now I rejoice in my sufferings for your sake, and in my flesh I complete what is Lacking in Christ’s afflictions for the sake of his body, that is, the Church…”). What is lacking: Christ’s sufferings were, of course, sufficient for our redemption, but all of us may add ours to his, in order that the fruits of his redemption be applied to the souls of men. </li>
 	<li class="li1">We express humility before God by adopting a humble posture, recognizing our dependence on him and affirming our submissiveness to his will.</li>
</ol> 
4 classes of penitents who committed major sins (idolatry, murder, abortion, adultery) in the ancient formal penitential discipline:

<ol class="ol1">
 	<li class="li1">Weepers - Not allowed in the church but stayed outside and asked those going in to pray for them.</li>
 	<li class="li1">Hearers - Stood inside the church doors and heard the liturgy of the word but were dismissed before the liturgy of the Eucharist.</li>
 	<li class="li1">Kneelers - knelt or lay down in church and participated with the Church in specific prayers for them before being blessed by the bishop and dismissed prior to the Eucharist. </li>
 	<li class="li1">Standers - sat in the congregation and stayed for the liturgy of the Eucharist but did not receive Communion.</li>
</ol> 
5 Tips when Fasting:

<ol class="ol1">
 	<li class="li1">Have a specific intention for your suffering. Visualize the person you are praying for or the grace you are asking God to give you.</li>
 	<li class="li1">Set a schedule. Scheduling how your day will look helps avoid moments of inactivity. Helps to go to sleep on time and get up early.</li>
 	<li class="li1">Increase the amount of water you drink per day.</li>
 	<li class="li1">Take multi-vitamins. When you fast you will become deficient in some vitamins your body is used to having.</li>
 	<li class="li1">Don’t complain. No one should know you are fasting.</li>
</ol> 
Canon Law on Feast Days: 
Can. 1246 §1. Sunday, on which by apostolic tradition the paschal mystery is celebrated, must be observed in the universal Church as the primordial holy day of obligation. The following days must also be observed: the Nativity of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Epiphany, the Ascension, the Body and Blood of Christ, Holy Mary the Mother of God, her Immaculate Conception, her Assumption, Saint Joseph, Saint Peter and Saint Paul the Apostles, and All Saints.
Canon Law on Days of Penance: 
Can. 1251 Abstinence from meat, or from some other food as determined by the Episcopal Conference, is to be observed on all Fridays, unless a solemnity should fall on a Friday. Abstinence and fasting are to be observed on Ash Wednesday and Good Friday.
Can. 1252 The law of abstinence binds those who have completed their fourteenth year. The law of fasting binds those who have attained their majority, until the beginning of their sixtieth year. Pastors of souls and parents are to ensure that even those who by reason of their age are not bound by the law of fasting and abstinence, are taught the true meaning of penance.
Can. 1253 The conference of bishops can determine more precisely the observance of fast and abstinence as well as substitute other forms of penance, especially works of charity and exercises of piety, in whole or in part, for abstinence and fast.

<blockquote>Hey men,

Let me ask you: in the past 90 days, how often did you eat a little too much, drink a little too much, or spend too much time in the office?

How many times did you ignore your wife, children, or friends just to thumb through social media, watch Netflix, YouTube, or a game?

So many men today are distracted. They’re dependent on the comforts of this world, making them incapable of even knowing they aren’t free to say no to those things. Guys, we were made for more than this.

If you desire freedom from those attachments — Freedom to be a better husband, a better father, and a better man for others — I invite you to check out <a href="http://exodus90.com/?utm_source=catholicmanshow&amp;utm_medium=email&amp;utm_campaign=exodus90-2022&amp;utm_content=catholicmanshow-email-1">Exodus 90</a></blockquote>
</div>
<div>

Exodus 90 is a ninety-day program that gets us back to the fundamentals of the faith: prayer, self-denial, and fraternity. It starts on January 17th and ends on Easter Sunday.More than 50,000 men from around the world — Catholics, Christians, even folks that don’t align with any Christian faith —  have done this. Of these men, 99% report experiencing greater freedom.

<h2>About our drink:</h2>
Bernheim Kentucky Straight Whiskey

At its launch, Bernheim Original Straight Wheat Whiskey was the first truly new variety of American straight wheat whiskey introduced since Prohibition. Heaven Hill Master Distillers saw an opportunity to give today's whiskey connoisseurs a unique taste experience. Bernheim was the only straight whiskey to use winter wheat as the primary grain in its mashbill, giving it a soft, sweet flavor and medium finish.

Today, on the front of the bottle, Bernheim proudly displays its finest attributes: Kentucky Straight Wheat Whiskey, small batch, and a 7 year age statement. With an age statement of 7 years, Bernheim Original Wheat Whiskey truly is well worth the wheat. It is the only straight wheat whiskey distributed nationally. As a straight whiskey, it meets the same criteria as Bourbon or rye—aged a minimum of two years in new, charred oak barrels, distilled at less than 160 proof, and contains no coloring, flavoring or blending agents. As a small batch product, it is made with a dump of 100 barrels or less.

<h2>About our drink: Vat 69</h2>
David Bates brought this from across the pond, as you can not get it here in the States. Vat 69 was the go-to scotch for Lewis, so it was very fitting for us to be sipping on the drink while talking about the Christian author.
The iconic Vat 69 bottle with its bulbous neck was introduced to the market and was not changed for about one hundred years. In 1882, William Sanderson prepared one hundred casks of blended whisky and hired a panel of experts to taste them. The batch from the cask (or “vat”) with number 69 was judged to be the best, and this provided the whisky&#8217;s <a title="Brand" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brand">brand name</a>. The whisky was at first bottled in <a title="Port wine" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Port_wine">port</a> bottles. In 1884, Sanderson bought the <a title="Glen Garioch distillery" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glen_Garioch_distillery">Glen Garioch distillery</a> which was situated in the middle of a <a title="Barley" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barley">barley</a> field. The distillery was meant to ensure the delivery of grain whisky.

<h2>About our topic: </h2>
C.S. Lewis was a British writer and theologian. He is best known for his works of fiction, especially The Screwtape Letters, The Chronicles of Narnia, and The Space Trilogy, and for his non-fiction Christian apologetics, such as Mere Christianity, Miracles, and The Problem of Pain.
The Screwtape Letters is a Christian apologetic novel written in a satirical format where the plot and characters are used to address Christian theological issues, primarily those to do with temptation and resistance to it.

It is a clarion call that hope must not be merely theoretical, but must “lead us to a deeper relationship with God, an encounter with the One who loves us and calls us to friendship with Himself.”
<h2>About our topic:</h2>
We try to lay out what hope is but also shows how we can exercise this theological virtue, through being daring, changing our ways, serving the Lord, struggling, suffering, and praying. We examine how hope directs us to our ultimate goal of life with God and gives us the strength and perseverance to attain it.

<h2>About our drink:</h2>
<a href="https://michters.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Michter&#8217;s Bourbon</a>
Notes of oak, white pepper, honey, peaches and raisins lingered for a while in my mouth with the predominant flavor being the white pepper that brings a subtle heat and spice to the finish. This bourbon tastes like many young bourbons I&#8217;ve had from start-up distilleries with its light nose and sweet palate profile.
<h2>About the gear:</h2>
N/A &#8211; we didn&#8217;t have a gear this week since we had so much we needed to cover.
<h2>About our topic:</h2>
The topic of confession.
How do we help the priest, help us, during confession? Should you pray while in the state of mortal sin? How do you make a good confession after you have stopped committing mortal sin on a regular basis? Can you make a confession on skype?

<h4>About the beer &#8211; Fr. Dominic Belgian Quad 9% ABV</h4>
In 1875 Father Dominic, a Belgian Monk, would travel to Indian Territory with the Saint Benedictine Monks from France. He would become the first brewmeister in the territory. This Abbey Quad in strict obedience, gives reverence to Father Dominic. His fermented drinks were enjoyed by the local Native Americans and many of the early boomers. This is a dark Belgian style Quad that is beautifully complex with hints of molasses, prairie fruits, and Belgian Candi. It is a heavenly smooth and delightful elixir that is dangerously drinkable.
St. Thomas Aquinas on whether peace is the same as concord:
<blockquote>Peace includes concord and adds something thereto. Hence wherever peace is, there is concord, but there is not peace, wherever there is concord, if we give peace its proper meaning.</blockquote>
St. Thomas in <a href="http://www.newadvent.org/summa/3029.htm" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Question 29</a> speaks on the topic of peace:
<ol>
<li>Is peace the same as concord?</li>
<li>Do all things desire peace?</li>
<li>Is peace an effect of charity?</li>
<li>Is peace a virtue?</li>
</ol>

The dram this week is Courvoisier VSOP ***CORRECTION*** in the episode Adam says VSOP stands for ‘Very Special Open Pale’ which is incorrect. It actually stands for ‘Very Superior Old Pale’.

Made in France- A skillfully crafted cognac that is a blend of several crus with a perfect balance between Fins Bois, Grande, and Petite Champagnes, at the peak of their aromatic potential. The result is an exquisitely balanced cognac with notes of peach and toasted almond

The gear is having a letterhead. Want to make your own letterhead? Here’s a list of some <a href="https://www.pinterest.com/jhnmdws/celebrity-letterheads/?lp=true" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">good examples</a>.

<h1>Cigar 101 with Tomas Baldonado from <a href="https://www.ultimocigars.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Ultimo Cigars</a></h1>
Every once in a while, we break away from our normal routine on The Catholic Man Show to have a conversation with someone we think is a craftsman, expert in a field, and/or has an interesting story. Our guest, Tomas Baldonado from Ultimo, fits all 3 categories.
Many men aren&#8217;t sure where to begin when picking up their first stick. In this episode, we sit down with Oklahoma&#8217;s first and only licensed manufacturer of premium handcrafted cigars.
In the January edition of <a href="https://www.cigaraficionado.com" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Cigar Aficionado Magazine</a>, Ultimo Cigars was mentioned in an article entitled, &#8220;<a href="https://www.cigaraficionado.com/article/50-factories-in-the-u-s-that-still-make-cigars" target="_blank" rel="noopener">50 Factories in the U.S. that still make Cigars</a>&#8220;.
Things you will learn:
<ul>
<li>Anatomy of a cigar</li>
<li>How to find a cigar that fits your palate</li>
<li>How to cut a cigar</li>
<li>How a cigar is made</li>
<li>Types of cigars</li>
<li>How to keep cigars fresh</li>
<li>How Tomas paired a cigar with a beer</li>
<li>and much more</li>
</ul> 
<h3>About Ultimo Cigars:</h3>

Talking Discipline with 6-time World and Olympic Champion, John Smith – Episode 147

<h1>We need your help</h1>
Our annual Catholic radio fundraiser is coming up and we are hoping to put together a video montage of people who have found The Catholic Man Show to be helpful in their lives, the lives of friends, and/or the lives of family members and play the video at our fundraiser to show how Catholic media, particularly Catholic radio, can impact people. This is where the request comes into play. We would like you to send us a 15-20 second video and tell us how TCMS has impacted your life.
Here&#8217;s what you need to do:
<ol>
<li>Turn your smartphone horizontal, then hit video record.</li>
<li>Introduce yourself and where you are from.</li>
<li>And tell us in a couple sentences how TCMS has made an impact in your life.</li>
<li>Save the video and send it to <a href="mailto:adam@stmichaelradio.com" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">adam@stmichaelradio.com</a> before Friday, November 22nd, 2019.</li>
</ol> 
That&#8217;s it!
I know these type of requests can be annoying or inconvenient, but it truly helps us continue growing and gaining the support we need to make high-quality Catholic media.
We appreciate your willingness to help us.
We are on the Lord&#8217;s team. The winning side. So raise your glass. 
Cheers to Jesus,
Adam and David

<h2>About our drink:</h2>
Proper Twelve is a triple distilled Irish whiskey that is an ultra-smooth blend of fine grain and single malt with hints of vanilla, honey, and toasted wood.
The founder, Conor McGregor, and his team searched for a place and people that shared the same passion for Ireland and its whiskey. He found this at the oldest whiskey distillery on the Isle of Ireland and with his master distiller created a unique and special blend.

Cajetan Mary da Bergamo
<blockquote>"In Paradise, there are many Saints who never gave alms on earth: their poverty justified them. There are many Saints who never mortified their bodies by fasting, or wearing hair shirts: their bodily infirmities excused them. There are many Saints too who were not virgins: their vocation was otherwise. But in Paradise, there is no Saint who was not humble." - Fr. Cajetan Mary da Bergamo</blockquote>
<h2>Twelve  Steps  of  Humility</h2>
Step 1. A first step is taken when one consciously obeys all of God’s commandments, never ignoring them but always holding within himself a fear of God in his heart.
Step 2. The second step is achieved when one thinks not about pleasing himself but instead follow the injunction of the Lord.
Step 3. The third step is reached when out of love of God, one obediently submits to a superior in imitation of the Lord.
Step 4. The fourth step is achieved when one, under obedience, patiently and quietly endures all thing that are inflicted on him.  It should make no difference whether the trials are painful, unjust or even completely beyond his understanding; he should neither tire nor give up.
Step 5. The fifth step is reached when one humbly discloses to his superior all the evil thoughts in his heart, as well as those faults and evil acts he has actually committed.
Step 6. To achieve the sixth step one must without qualms accept all that is crude and harsh; at all times he considers himself a poor and worthless workman.
Step 7. The seventh step is attained when one not only confesses that he is an inferior and common wretch, but believes it to his very core.  He must be willing to humble himself.
Step 8. One reaches the eighth step of humility when he does only that which is demanded by the common rule of his seniors.
Step 9. The ninth step can be achieved when one, practicing silence, only speaks when asked a question.
Step 10. The tenth step is climbed when one restrains himself from undue laughter and frivolity.
Step 11. To reach the eleventh step one must speak gently, without jests, but simply, seriously, tersely, rationally and softly.
Step 12. The final step is attained only when one can at all times show humility not only in his appearance and actions, but also in his heart.

Look at the Cross

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.

A Critique of Feminism (Dr. Abigail Favale) | Ep. 342

Recognizing the disorder within our culture is the initial step toward rectifying the missteps, often subtle, within our individual lives. Today we discuss how the world is playing this out on a grand scale which culminates in seeing things and even people simply as a means to our own personal ends. In light of this, Dr. John Cuddeback engages with us to assert that we must first identify and be aware of this limited and disordered mindset to begin to re-order and improve our lives and those around us. However, it is not enough to speak of things in the abstract or philosophical sense, we bring this knowledge into the fabric of our daily lives and offer a number of actionable methods through which we can start living out our best life.Life Craft - https://life-craft.orgInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/lifecraft_johncuddeback/Youtube - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC_k-11w5x6ivEem1z4eyOXwBook - True Friendship - https://ignatius.com/true-friendship-tfp🔴 🔴 Help Support Our Need for Professional Studio Equipment and get 3 Months of Free Access to CG+ - https://catholicgentleman.com/support🔴 Catholic Gentleman+ is Now Live - https://catholicgentlemanplus.com Learn more about your ad choices.

Life Coaching

In today's episode of Pints With Aquinas we ask Thomas about knowledge and stuff (that sounded smart right? "and stuff"). --- On this point the philosophers held three opinions. For Democritus held that "all knowledge is caused by images issuing from the bodies we think of and entering into our souls," as Augustine says in his letter to Dioscorus (cxviii, 4). And Aristotle says (De Somn. et Vigil.) that Democritus held that knowledge is cause by a "discharge of images." And the reason for this opinion was that both Democritus and the other early philosophers did not distinguish between intellect and sense, as Aristotle relates (De Anima iii, 3). Consequently, since the sense is affected by the sensible, they thought that all our knowledge is affected by this mere impression brought about by sensible things. Which impression Democritus held to be caused by a discharge of images. Plato, on the other hand, held that the intellect is distinct from the senses: and that it is an immaterial power not making use of a corporeal organ for its action. And since the incorporeal cannot be affected by the corporeal, he held that intellectual knowledge is not brought about by sensible things affecting the intellect, but by separate intelligible forms being participated by the intellect, as we have said above (Articles 4 and 5). Moreover he held that sense is a power operating of itself. Consequently neither is sense, since it is a spiritual power, affected by the sensible: but the sensible organs are affected by the sensible, the result being that the soul is in a way roused to form within itself the species of the sensible. Augustine seems to touch on this opinion (Gen. ad lit. xii, 24) where he says that the "body feels not, but the soul through the body, which it makes use of as a kind of messenger, for reproducing within itself what is announced from without." Thus according to Plato, neither does intellectual knowledge proceed from sensible knowledge, nor sensible knowledge exclusively from sensible things; but these rouse the sensible soul to the sentient act, while the senses rouse the intellect to the act of understanding. Aristotle chose a middle course. For with Plato he agreed that intellect and sense are different. But he held that the sense has not its proper operation without the cooperation of the body; so that to feel is not an act of the soul alone, but of the "composite." And he held the same in regard to all the operations of the sensitive part. Since, therefore, it is not unreasonable that the sensible objects which are outside the soul should produce some effect in the "composite," Aristotle agreed with Democritus in this, that the operations of the sensitive part are caused by the impression of the sensible on the sense: not by a discharge, as Democritus said, but by some kind of operation. For Democritus maintained that every operation is by way of a discharge of atoms, as we gather from De Gener. i, 8. But Aristotle held that the intellect has an operation which is independent of the body's cooperation. Now nothing corporeal can make an impression on the incorporeal. And therefore in order to cause the intellectual operation according to Aristotle, the impression caused by the sensible does not suffice, but something more noble is required, for "the agent is more noble than the patient," as he says (De Gener. i, 5). Not, indeed, in the sense that the intellectual operation is effected in us by the mere impression of some superior beings, as Plato held; but that the higher and more noble agent which he calls the active intellect, of which we have spoken above (I:79:4) causes the phantasms received from the senses to be actually intelligible, by a process of abstraction. According to this opinion, then, on the part of the phantasms, intellectual knowledge is caused by the senses. But since the phantasms cannot of themselves affect the passive intellect, and require to be made actually intelligible by the active intellect, it cannot be said that sensible knowledge is the total and perfect cause of intellectual knowledge, but rather that it is in a way the material cause. ST I, Q. 84, A. 6. --- Here's what Thomas said in response to what we now call idealism: This is, however, manifestly false for two reasons. First, because the things we understand are the objects of science; therefore if what we understand is merely the intelligible species in the soul, it would follow that every science would not be concerned with objects outside the soul, but only with the intelligible species within the soul; thus, according to the teaching of the Platonists all science is about ideas, which they held to be actually understood [I:84:1]. Secondly, it is untrue, because it would lead to the opinion of the ancients who maintained that "whatever seems, is true" [Aristotle, Metaph. iii. 5], and that consequently contradictories are true simultaneously. For if the faculty knows its own impression only, it can judge of that only. Now a thing seems according to the impression made on the cognitive faculty. Consequently the cognitive faculty will always judge of its own impression as such; and so every judgment will be true: for instance, if taste perceived only its own impression, when anyone with a healthy taste perceives that honey is sweet, he would judge truly; and if anyone with a corrupt taste perceives that honey is bitter, this would be equally true; for each would judge according to the impression on his taste. Thus every opinion would be equally true; in fact, every sort of apprehension. Therefore it must be said that the intelligible species is related to the intellect as that by which it understands: which is proved thus. There is a twofold action (Metaph. ix, Did. viii, 8), one which remains in the agent; for instance, to see and to understand; and another which passes into an external object; for instance, to heat and to cut; and each of these actions proceeds in virtue of some form. And as the form from which proceeds an act tending to something external is the likeness of the object of the action, as heat in the heater is a likeness of the thing heated; so the form from which proceeds an action remaining in the agent is the likeness of the object. Hence that by which the sight sees is the likeness of the visible thing; and the likeness of the thing understood, that is, the intelligible species, is the form by which the intellect understands. But since the intellect reflects upon itself, by such reflection it understands both its own act of intelligence, and the species by which it understands. Thus the intelligible species is that which is understood secondarily; but that which is primarily understood is the object, of which the species is the likeness. This also appears from the opinion of the ancient philosophers, who said that "like is known by like." For they said that the soul knows the earth outside itself, by the earth within itself; and so of the rest. If, therefore, we take the species of the earth instead of the earth, according to Aristotle (De Anima iii, 8), who says "that a stone is not in the soul, but only the likeness of the stone"; it follows that the soul knows external things by means of its intelligible species.

8 Principal Faults

Where does true strength come from? Hint: It&rsquo;s not your willpower, discipline, or grind. In Chapter Five, Strength, Father Larry reveals the real source of masculine strength&mdash;the Holy Spirit. Not brute force. Not control. But daily surrender to God&rsquo;s power living inside you. This chapter lays out the bold truth: most men are spiritually weak because they still try to do everything on their own. <a href="http://heroicmen.org/be-a-man-guide" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Download the Heroic Men Guide</a>

Curiosity Killed the Christian? | Fr. Gregory Pine, O.P.

One of the most important aspects to any leadership is your ability to have ideas.  Casting a vision and showing where we want to go is essential to have anyone follow us.  But what is the difference between having ideas and having good ideas?  What makes a potential idea or a future vision something that is captivating and true?  Our Christian faith helps us here – God will help us to be temperate, to not be afraid to prioritize, and to be open to the great things he wants to do through us.

DGT Episode 215 - Getting Good Ideas - AUDEO Part 13

St. Thomas Aquinas is a genius of thought and in this course for Catholic leaders I present a summary course on the four aspects of all human action essential for leadership.  In today’s class I focus in on the doing of deeds.  All leadership goes from vision into planning and from planning into execution.  Doing the great things we planned is the key to having impact in our lives.

How a Convicted Murderer Became an On-Fire Christian! (Part 2)

We hear a lot about the Good News today, but we do not hear much about the bad news. However, as Peter Kreeft has stated, without the bad news, the good news is meaningless. Sin is not spoken of frequently enough, glossed over, and sometimes outright ignored. We all know that the secular world champions vice and acts as if it is virtue, and while this complete reversal might not affect you totally, it likely has lessened the degree to which you despise sin in your life. Today we go into sin, what it is, what it is not, and two devastating ways that men often deal with sin in their lives. As we look to Christ on the Cross, it is necessary to understand how our sin has put him there and the mercy that is available to us.🔴 🔴 Watch the extended addition, all 1h 30 mins of episode 152 on Catholic Gentleman Plus where we discuss the way out of sin in your life: https://catholicgentlemanplus.com✅ We love to answer questions on the show.

Two Devastating Ways NOT to Deal with Sin

The power of a leader is as much about your connection with your people as it is about your vision and your drive.  People follow those who trust them and they trust those who show the character and the drive necessary not only to succeed but to succeed at doing what’s right.  This is the difference that Christ makes.  In this sixth and final episode of our six part series on The Difference Christ Makes we look at the unique impact Jesus gives to his followers in their connectivity with others and how that applies to our businesses.

DGT Episode 185 - Christian Communion - The Difference Christ Makes Part 6

John Michael Lucido is a regional director at FOCUS (Fellowship of Catholic University Students), where he and his wife serve the Lord by accompanying others, including fellow missionaries. John Michael shares how he tried to find acceptance in the wrong places as he started college and soon had to take a step back to reset his priorities and put God back at the forefront. He reflects on the powerful legacy of great Catholic men who came before him and how we are all standing on the shoulders of the men and women who carved this path for us. This is a story of God’s mercy and His pursuit of true relationship with each of us. Fun side note - John Michael was a former student of Paul’s back at Jesuit Preparatory School in Dallas, and they recounted some of the fun adventures and memories they shared from those days. On Blessed are the Joke Makers, the dudes must take on the persona of someone who shares too much info to address the prompt, “A little know Bible story.” The TBD Question of the Day asks John Michael and the Dudes to reflect on what they each remember from their own Baptisms.

Big Man on Campus Undergoes Spiritual Renewal | John Michael Lucido | Episode #097

Leaders are people of action.  They are those who have the vision to know what they want to do, the intelligence to choose how to do it, and the dedication to carry the job through.  It’s this last part that is a challenge for many.  As soon as we begin the process of change, challenges will arise from every side.  How do we form the heart and the drive sufficient to carry our actions through to success.  In these circumstances the Christian faith shines beautifully and gives Christian leaders and advantage.

In this week's episode, we are joined by Dr. Jeff LaCour to discuss masculine suffering, marriage, life as a doctor with 6 children, and how to grow in holiness.

Dr. Jeff LaCour on Suffering, Marriage, and Surrender to God

Sometimes even the best leaders can forget that in the end leadership isn’t about them.  If we are leading our people, it’s to lead them to something bigger than ourselves and sometimes we have to die to ourselves in order to bring people to something that will really be good for them.  At Cana in Galilee the Virgin Mary triggers a series of events that will lead to our Lord’s crucifixion and death.  She hastens the hour of its coming even though that means that she will have to say goodbye sooner.  She teaches us how to lead even when that means saying goodbye.

DGT Episode 236 - Hastening The Hour At Cana - Mary Queen Of Leaders Part 8

Back when I worked as an apologist with Catholic Answers we received a lot of questions around this time of year. Perhaps the most common was, "are Sunday's excluded from Lent?" The answer is . . . are you ready for this? No. Sunday's are not excluded from Lent. According to the <a href="https://www.ewtn.com/library/CURIA/CDWLITYR.HTM">General Norms for the Liturgical Year and the Calendar</a>, "Lent runs from Ash Wednesday until the Mass of the Lord's Supper exclusive" (28). No exceptions are given for Sunday's during Lent. In fact, a couple of paragraphs later the GN says: "The Sundays of this season are called the First, Second, Third, Fourth, and Fifth Sundays of Lent. The Sixth Sunday, which marks the beginning of Holy Week, is called Passion Sunday (Palm Sunday)" (30). So there you have it. Now, does that mean that we cannot choose to allow ourselves the things we voluntarily gave up for lent? No, it doesn't. These voluntary fasts are personal devotions. Because they have been voluntarily taken up, we can choose to set them aside. That said, be awesome and sacrifice this Lent. What my P.E coach told me in middle-school applies to Lent also, "mate, if it's not hurting, you're not doing it right."

How God Called His Daughter Home

The Catholic Men’s Leadership Alliance proudly welcomes the Bishop Joseph L. Coffey as our Episcopal Moderator, straight from the frontline of faith and service as the Auxiliary bishop for the Archdiocese for the Military Services.

BISHOP'S MESSAGE:
"My brothers in Christ, my name is Bishop Joe Coffey. I'm an auxiliary Bishop with the military Archdiocese, having served almost 20 years on active duty as a Navy chaplain with tours with the Navy, the Marines, and the Coast Guard. I am honored that the Catholic Men's Leadership Alliance has asked me to be their Episcopal moderator. They were formed just a few years ago and their mission is very simple: strengthen the man, strengthen the family, strengthen the church, and strengthen the culture.

There's no doubt in anybody's mind that we are in trouble right now. Our world is in trouble, our church is in trouble, our country is in trouble, but God has always raised up men to be leaders. Just think of the role he gave my patron saint, St Joseph, in Salvation history. His mission: protect the savior of the world and his blessed mother. Talk about a mission! And he did it with grace, and humility, and Faith. 

So men: in history, men have always loved their families, their wives, their kids, and their country, and will be willing to lay down their lives for them. Men love the church, men love the Lord, and love to pray. So join other men from around our country with the Catholic Men's Leadership Alliance, and help them help you, and help other men to be the men God created all of us to be. 

I look forward to meeting you God bless you!

BISHOP COFFEY'S BIO
Bishop Coffey's bio reads like a military ops report. Born in '60, raised in Philly, this man has been hustling since day one. Double major at La Salle University, ski instructor in Switzerland, and even revving it in the auto industry in Germany and Belgium.

But that's just the prelude. Fast forward to '96, and he's not just Father Coffey anymore; he's Navy Chaplain Coffey. Ensign status, serving on active duty assignments six global locations, even deploying to the Camp Leatherneck in Afghanistan. 

Medals? Plenty.  He’s been awarded the Meritorious Service Medal, Navy Commendation Medal with two gold stars, and many  more. This man's the real deal, a spiritual warrior with the grit of a Navy lifer.

We're talking about a leader who's been everywhere from the South Pacific to the Arabian Gulf, and now he's on a new mission with us. Now, Bishop Coffey's reported for duty as the incoming Episcopal Moderator for CMLA, effective December 18, 2023. 

This is more than an extra command post; it's a heroic, spiritual call to arms. As our Episcopal Moderator, he will provide spiritual and apostolic guidance to help keep our mission focused on serving Jesus and His Church.

Recollection, Office Life, and Pope Francis

From its rich monastic heritage and the teachings of Jesus Christ, all of these practices originate from the Church's understanding of the nature of man and how practicing these habits can help improve your life.If you have a question for us to answer on the show please send a voice recording or written out a question to podcast@catholicgentleman.com.🎉 FREE ROSARY FOR ALL NEW ANNUAL MEMBERS - Join CG+ - https://catholicgentlemanplus.com🔴 Get this and watch the entire 1h 30mins of episode 179 here - https://catholicgentlemanplus.com🔴 NEW SESSION ON Civic Duty.

Playing Jesus (Jonathan Roumie) | Ep. 238

[I]t is superfluous to suppose that what can be accounted for by a few principles has been produced by many. But it seems that everything we see in the world can be accounted for by other principles, supposing God did not exist. For all natural things can be reduced to one principle which is nature; and all voluntary things can be reduced to one principle which is human reason, or will. Therefore there is no need to suppose God's existence. - ST I. Q, 2. A, 3. --- SPONSORS EL Investments: <a href="https://www.elinvestments.net/pints">https://www.elinvestments.net/pints</a> Exodus 90: <a href="https://exodus90.com/mattfradd/">https://exodus90.com/mattfradd/</a> Hallow: <a href="http://hallow.app/mattfradd">http://hallow.app/mattfradd</a> STRIVE: <a href="https://www.strive21.com/">https://www.strive21.com/</a> GIVING Patreon: <a href="https://www.patreon.com/mattfradd">https://www.patreon.com/mattfradd</a> This show (and all the plans we have in store) wouldn't be possible without you.

30: Has science done away with the need for God? With Trent Horn

Many Christians have become overly interested in justice, and not concerned enough with mercy or the other virtues.

We Are WAY Too Obsessed With Justice! | Fr. Gregory Pine O.P.

Deacon Harold Burke Sivers helps men realize the Call to be Saints by identifying the obstacles in their prayer life and their relationship to Jesus, and how to engage the Word of God to transform your life.

Miracles Do Happen: In this episode, we are honored to have Dr. Ben Carson - the world-renowned pediatric neurosurgeon, Presidential Medal of Freedom recipient, two-time speaker at the National Prayer Breakfast, presidential candidate, and author. We discuss Dr. Carson’s life and faith, and how he almost miraculously overcame adversity, and went from a life of dire poverty to national recognition. Dr. Carson will share some stories of real miracles he witnessed as a neurosurgeon. We will also discuss what miracles are and the essential part they play in our Faith. -- About Dr. Ben CarsonNeurosurgeon, medical director, foundation executive and author Dr. Benjamin Solomon Carson, Sr. was born on September 18, 1951 in Detroit Michigan, to Sonya and Robert Solomon Carson. After the couple separated, Carson and his brother Curtis lived with their mother. Although she worked several jobs at a time, Sonya supported the family and played a tremendous role in shaping the lives of her sons. Upon seeing her sons’ poor performance in school, Sonya required them to read regularly and to present her with weekly book reports, although she herself only had a third grade education and had difficulty reading. In 1969, Carson graduated with honors as the student “Most likely to succeed,” from Southwestern High School, a public school located in southwest Detroit, Michigan. During his early years, although Carson had improved his grades considerably, he had to overcome his temper. After an incident in which he almost stabbed a friend, Carson made up his mind to change his ways. Upon receiving his high school diploma, Carson attended Yale University, where he would meet his future wife, Lacena “Candy” Rustin. After graduating from Yale University with his B.A. degree in psychology in 1973, he went on to the University of Michigan School of Medicine. After receiving his M.D. degree in 1977, Carson trained at Johns Hopkins University, where he completed his internship in general surgery and his residency in neurological surgery. In 1983, Carson traveled to Perth, Australia to serve as a senior registrar in neurosurgery at Sir Charles Gairdner Hospital. A year later, he returned to Johns Hopkins and by the following year was named Director of Pediatric Neurosurgery. In 1987, through a ground-breaking surgical procedure, Carson successfully separated conjoined twins who were attached at the head. Outside of his work as a world-renowned surgeon, Carson has been civically active. Using his own life story as a background, Carson has written four motivational books, which include: "Gifted Hands" in 1990, "The Big Picture" in 2000, "Think Big" in 2006, and "Take the Risk: Learning to Identify, Choose, and Live with Acceptable Risk" in 2007. The first of these works served as the inspiration for a film of the same title, in which Cuba Gooding, Jr. plays the role of Carson. Carson has also created three foundations—the Carson Scholars Fund, the Ben Carson Reading Project, and Angels of the Operating Room. He serves on the board of directors of the Kellogg Company and CostCo Wholesale Corporation. In 2008, President George W. Bush presented Carson with the Presidential Medal of Freedom, the nation's highest civilian award. Carson and his wife have three sons, Murray Nedlands, Benjamin Solomon, Jr. and Rhoeyce Harrington. -- Host: Mario Costabile Cohost: Dr. David HajdukVisit our website:<a href="https://arrayofhope.org/">https://arrayofhope.org/</a> Sign up for FREE on the Array of Hope Channel app:<a href="https://watch.arrayofhope.net/">https://watch.arrayofhope.net/</a>Available on Apple TV, Roku, iOS, and Android mobile devices.
