Rachel Ullmann | The Myth of Having it All

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?

You must hear the advice Jeff gives to his 18-year-old self. &nbsp;If you’re a young man, it will change your life.

A Dram with Jeff Cavins

In some ways all leadership is the same.  Individuals have to move groups of people to accomplish things in unity.  What then is the Christian difference and what does a religion of love have to do with leadership?  In this fourth part of our series on The Christian Leaders Advantage, we explore the difference that love makes in leadership.  Not only does it speak to the emotions of all involved, but it allows leaders to penetrate more deeply into what really motivates people to be their best.  And being the best of all things, why wouldn’t love make us the best of all leaders.

140: Intro to Aquinas (Yeeeey!)

This is the Every Catholic Man Gospel Devotional, where 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 witness the beautiful act of Mary the sister of Lazarus as she anoints the feet of Jesus with costly ointment, a mysterious prefigurement of the anointing of Jesus’ body after the Crucifixion, and how Jesus defends Mary against the evil attacks of the greedy Judas. We’ll reflect upon need for every Catholic man to build the Virtue of Justice so he can always refuse to break the 7th Commandment which condemns stealing.   We’ll also consider the importance for every Catholic man to build the Virtue of Generosity so he can always generously invest to build and support beautiful parishes.

In Defense of Modern Art?! with Fr. Bonaventure Chapman

All great leaders dare to dream but what do you do when the dreams have gone dry?  Where does our power to come up with great ideas or great initiatives come from?  In the Christian view of leadership, it comes from deep within our hearts made in the image and likeness of God.  Which is why the redeeming power of Christ to heal us and our sense of ourselves is the key to unlocking our desire to dare great things for Christ.  Journey with us as we explore self-acceptance and its power to change our lives.

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>

How do we avoid the culture of conformity? One of the biggest challenges we face as Catholics is aligning our desires with the truth of the Gospel instead of the culture at large. As Pope St. John Paul II stated, “man is more valuable for what he is than what he has ”. In Episode Two, Andreas Widmer and Luke Burgis lead us to discover why it's important to make intentional choices to conform our life to Christ and the Gospel, instead of defaulting to the ways of others.

The Culture of Conformity | The Gospel of Work | E2

Humility gives us the wisdom to understand our strengths and weaknesses (or talents and non-talents) so that we can use our own gifts for the glory of God and recognize the contribution of others.

All people have inherent dignity and worth, no matter their background, ethnicity, age, sex, ability, or talent. We should care for sick people and help the needy. Common sense, right? Hardly. We tend to take these ideas for granted now, but Jesus’ teachings were truly radical at the time. In this chapter, you will explore how the message of Christianity changed the world.In this episode you will learn that ...■ The ultimate expression of Jesus’ unconditional love is His self-sacrifice at the end of His earthly mission.■ At the Last Supper Jesus instituted the Eucharist, specifying that this gift is truly His Body and Blood.■ Jesus initiated a New Covenant — a solemn binding promise between parties — in His Blood, bringing salvation to our entire human race.■ Jesus instructed the Apostles to perform the Eucharistic ritual so that He would actually be present with them when they do, anywhere on Earth, throughout history.■ Knowing and sharing God’s love and our intended destiny to be happy with Him can make the difference between a life of hope and a life of despair, especially in a world so darkened by suffering and evil.About Fr Spitzer: Born in Honolulu, Hawaii, on May 16, 1952, Fr.

Episode 13: Jesus Unconditional Self-Offering

We all know that leaders are responsible for getting things done, leading their organizations to be productive, but sometimes we forget that leadership also sometimes has a softer side and that a leader is just as responsible for the moral climate of his organization as he is for its efficiency.  In St. Paul’s letter to Titus, Chapter 2, St. Paul outlines his vision for the leader as the guardian of excellence.  And what he wrote Titus then still holds true for us today.

Being Authentically Catholic  w/ Bill Donaghy

"Beige Catholicism" is a phrase Bishop Barron coined early in his career as a way of describing the Church's lackluster adoption of the post-conciliar movement. Much of Bishop Barron's evangelical work, including his famous Catholicism book and film series, focuses on bringing Christ's radical distinctiveness and the Tradition's beautiful vibrancy back into our understanding of the Church. In this episode Bishop Barron details the problems with beige Catholicism as well as the path to a solution. Finally, a listener asks about the Benedict Option for Catholics struggling to keep the faith alive in contemporary culture.

WOF 034: Don't Be a 'Beige' Catholic

Fr. Ken Geraci lived the life of the prodigal son for most of his young adult life. Raised in a nominally Catholic family, who only lived the externals of the faith, Fr. Ken left the Catholic Church for many years. During that time, he earned a business degree and worked as a business professional in Advanced R&amp;D and software testing. &nbsp;During this journey, God presented him with challenges that forced him to question his personal beliefs and the question, “What is Truth?” Through a series of conversions, years of struggle, study, and questioning, Fr. Ken found his way from agnosticism to non-denominational Christianity, and ultimately back to the Catholic Church. Fr. Ken joined the Fathers of Mercy in 2006 and was ordained in 2012. Fr. Ken has a great understanding of the personal and societal pressures that individuals face and knows what it is like to “hate coming to church.” His mission talks are for people of all levels of faith, from those who are madly in love with Jesus to those who struggle with church and religion.In this episode, Fr. Ken shares the history of his order and discusses the current crisis of manhood. The BeatiDudes joke about Fr. Ken’s understated crucifix before inviting him to judge their comedy woes on “Blessed are the Joke Makers.” As we follow Fr. Ken through the journey of his life, we come to learn of his spiritual gift of healing. This show ends with a deep reflection on the process of healing, along with a healing exercise that all are welcome to join. Fair warning, we told you the BeatiDudes was a blend of humor and holiness, prepare for a big dose of both. <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 Fathers of Mercy:</h2><a href="https://fathersofmercy.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Fathers of Mercy Website</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>

Catholic Priest with The GIFT OF HEALING | Fr. Ken Geraci | Episode #013

The things that matter most must never be at the mercy of things that matter least. The Church has the most important mission on the planet, "Go, therefore and make disciples of all nations" (Matt. 28:18). The Family is the most important institution in the history of humanity, "The future of the world and the Church passes through the family" (Saint John Paul II). This podcast is a conversation about Leadership Where it Matters Most.

Leadership Where it Matters Most

In this episode we’ll learn that:

 - Striving to be perfect leads to disappointment and even depression
 - God is happy with the small steps we make to be better
 - Finding the right tools and relationships helps us make progress.

Last month, Jon Steingard, frontman of the Christian rock group Hawk Nelson, revealed that <a href= "https://www.cnn.com/2020/05/27/entertainment/jonathan-steingard-atheist/index.html"> “he no longer believes in God”</a> after spending his life as a devout Christian. His prominent de-conversion was profiled by The TODAY Show, People Magazine, NPR, and numerous other outlets. In today’s episode of “The Word on Fire Show,” Bishop Barron and Brandon Vogt explore the reasons Jon Steingard gave to explain why he lost his faith.

CANDID - Things to Know About Getting Engaged, Pt. 2

The nature and purpose of the human body was once considered obvious. But it has come under attack from secular culture in some strange and even disturbing ways in recent years. Now, unfortunately, it is up for grabs. The Word on Fire Institute sought to address this confusion surrounding the body at our recent Wonder Conference, “Nature and the Human Body.” Drawing on rich theological, philosophical, scientific, medical, moral, political, technological, and artistic resources, the conference sought to reclaim an authentic understanding and deep appreciation for the body—its resilience and fragility, its joys and its sufferings, its transcendence and its temporality, and, above all, its wonder. A listener asks how Catholics should think about near-death experiences and stories.   00:00 | Intro 01:23 | Hosting the Wonder Conference in Bishop Barron’s own diocese 02:25 | Why we needed Wonder 03:50 | Understanding the false dichotomy of faith and science 06:20 | Addressing the question of body/soul unity 12:38 | Inherent dangers in dividing body and soul 15:36 | Can Catholic ministries give platforms to evolutionary biologists? 17:11 | Highlights from Dr. Heather Heying’s Wonder talk 18:45 | Beginning with the logos and intelligibility 20:04 | The human difference 21:04 | Bishop Barron Presents: liturgical artist Jonathan Pageau 23:06 | Materialism as an incoherent philosophy vs. scientific worldview 26:30 | The intelligibility of creation 27:36 | Fr.

WOF 453: Nature & the Human Body—Recapping Wonder 2024

Today is the first in a two-part series on the incarnation I recorded with Fr. Gregory Pine. --- Here's what we read today:   On the contrary, What frees the human race from perdition is necessary for the salvation of man. But the mystery of Incarnation is such; according to John 3:16: "God so loved the world as to give His only-begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him may not perish, but may have life everlasting." Therefore it was necessary for man's salvation that God should become incarnate. I answer that, A thing is said to be necessary for a certain end in two ways. First, when the end cannot be without it; as food is necessary for the preservation of human life. Secondly, when the end is attained better and more conveniently, as a horse is necessary for a journey. In the first way it was not necessary that God should become incarnate for the restoration of human nature. For God with His omnipotent power could have restored human nature in many other ways. But in the second way it was necessary that God should become incarnate for the restoration of human nature. Hence Augustine says (De Trin. xii, 10): "We shall also show that other ways were not wanting to God, to Whose power all things are equally subject; but that there was not a more fitting way of healing our misery." Now this may be viewed with respect to our "furtherance in good." First, with regard to faith, which is made more certain by believing God Himself Who speaks; hence Augustine says (De Civ. Dei xi, 2): "In order that man might journey more trustfully toward the truth, the Truth itself, the Son of God, having assumed human nature, established and founded faith." Secondly, with regard to hope, which is thereby greatly strengthened; hence Augustine says (De Trin. xiii): "Nothing was so necessary for raising our hope as to show us how deeply God loved us. And what could afford us a stronger proof of this than that the Son of God should become a partner with us of human nature?" Thirdly, with regard to charity, which is greatly enkindled by this; hence Augustine says (De Catech. Rudib. iv): "What greater cause is there of the Lord's coming than to show God's love for us?" And he afterwards adds: "If we have been slow to love, at least let us hasten to love in return." Fourthly, with regard to well-doing, in which He set us an example; hence Augustine says in a sermon (xxii de Temp.): "Man who might be seen was not to be followed; but God was to be followed, Who could not be seen. And therefore God was made man, that He Who might be seen by man, and Whom man might follow, might be shown to man." Fifthly, with regard to the full participation of the Divinity, which is the true bliss of man and end of human life; and this is bestowed upon us by Christ's humanity; for Augustine says in a sermon (xiii de Temp.): "God was made man, that man might be made God."

Friends, what fuels our modern “culture of contempt,” so prevalent online? And how can Catholics resist it? A helpful new book by John Allen, Jr., <a href= "https://wordonfire.org/contempt">Catholics and Contempt</a>, seeks to answer those questions, and on today’s “Word on Fire Show” I discuss the book with Brandon Vogt. A listener asks, do the three transcendentals include unity?
