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

Today Sam and John discuss desk job burnout, depression, knife making, Poland and Ukraine, and finding God's will at work with award-winning blacksmith Leszek Sikon. Leszek's journey to the life of blacksmithing is filled with acceptance and growing in unity with God's will. We also spend time talking about knives and the artistry behind wielding the forge.Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/lsikonblacksmithSite - https://www.lsikonblacksmith.comEating Tools - https://www.eatingtools.com-- PLEASE CONSIDER SUPPORTING THE CATHOLIC GENTLEMAN --https://www.patreon.com/catholicgentlemanLeszek Sikon - Originally from Poland, Leszek came to the UK 17 years ago. He earned a decent living as a middle manager in retail yet this career left me feeling wholly unfulfilled. Leszek knew that he wanted to create something that would last. He was used to getting dirty and working with his hands – so he was thrilled to learn that Hereford College of Arts ran a blacksmithing course. The next thing he knew, he quit his job and started training.Since then he has found his passion in producing a series of superb artisan tools and knives, using age-old skills to produce modern objects of desire. His inspiration comes from the history and the traditional methods, getting to grips with hammers, tongs, and fire. Having these skills has paid off more than a career in retail ever would.

From Desk Job Burnout to the Life of a Blacksmith

In this episode of The Catholic Gentleman, Sam and John have an intriguing conversation about extraterrestrial intelligence (aliens) and what the Catholic Church has to say about them! We are joined by Dr. Paul Thigpen to discuss what saints and philosophers have argued about for centuries, as well as what it means to us as baptized Catholic men. When placing the possibility of alien existence against the Catholic faith, we enjoy learning and deepening our faith on truths such as human beings created in the Image of God, the fallen nature of man, and our relationship to God's universe.

Alcohol

Grab a seat in the pew as John and Victor discuss sloth and the danger it poses to your spiritual life.

Sloth

In this episode, Victor and I tackle one of the most relatable topics in faith: spiritual desolation. 

I open up about my personal struggles with feeling distant from God and how even saints like Mother Teresa faced years of spiritual dryness. Together, we explore what desolation really means and how it can impact our prayer life, mindset, and overall connection with God.

Drawing inspiration from St. Ignatius of Loyola and the teachings of Mother Teresa, we break down how to push through these tough times, offering practical advice on perseverance, prayer, and trusting God’s will even when it feels like He’s far away.

If you've ever felt stuck in your spiritual journey, this episode offers a reminder that you're not alone—and that there’s a way forward.

📚 Bible verses for reflection:

John 7:37-38 – "If anyone thirsts, let him come to me and drink. Whoever believes in me, as Scripture has said, ‘Out of his heart will flow rivers of living water.’"

Psalm 40:1-2 – "I waited patiently for the Lord; he turned to me and heard my cry. He lifted me out of the slimy pit, out of the mud and mire; he set my feet on a rock and gave me a firm place to stand."

Romans 8:28 – "And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose."

James 1:2-3 – "Count it all joy, my brothers, when you meet trials of various kinds, for you know that the testing of your faith produces steadfastness."

James 1:12 – "Blessed is the man who remains steadfast under trial, for when he has stood the test he will receive the crown of life, which God has promised to those who love him."

Persevering In Desolation

In this week&#39;s episode of Catholic ReCon, testimonies from reverts and converts, Dr. Ray Guarendi (Drray.com | @EWTNcatholictv ) joins me to discuss his reversion to the Catholic faith. Through reason and humor, Dr. Ray offers an apologetic and thought-provoking masterpiece that should be shared widely and often. Peace be with you all.

Why an EVANGELICAL Protestant Returned to Catholic Christianity

Every loving husband wants his wife to be happy. But what happens when every attempt, every word, solution, silence, seems to push her further away? Why is it that more often than not, she does not want us to help her fix her problems?

In this episode, John Heinen &amp; Devin Schadt dig into the struggle so many good men face: the instinct to fix their wife’s unhappiness… and why healing often begins when you stop trying to be her repairman. You’ll hear the truth about the masculine drive to solve, the feminine longing to be seen, and how the real breakthrough comes when you shift your focus from making her happy to loving her well.

Each week, watch these men explore Gospel reading, looking for ways to grow in awe of Jesus Christ and grow in real happiness.

The Lent Gospels: Palm Sunday

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

Do We Need Marian Apparitions? | Fr. Gregory Pine, O.P.

Of the many excellent texts on leadership in the Catholic Church’s tradition The Rule of Saint Benedict surely holds a pride of place.  Written around 530 AD by St. Benedict of Nursia this text provided the foundation for the way of life of his monks.  A way of life that shaped many of our traditions in Western Civilization.  This is why his take on leadership is so important.  And he provides us with a valuable lesson in our ongoing series on the lessons of leadership from the saints.

Back to our Catholic Roots with Keith Downey | CANDID

Kyle Washut is the youngest Catholic president at the youngest Catholic college in America. Kyle, President at Wyoming Catholic College (WCC), joins The BeatiDudes for an adventurous episode full of surprises, including the unique approach that WCC takes to educating and forming its students. WCC is a “great books school” where every student starts their freshmen year by spending several weeks in the wilderness. They all receive the same degree, a Bachelor of Arts in Liberal Arts. In addition to spending a semester on horseback, the entire student body memorizes a repertoire of poems and songs that unite them in the classroom and around the campfire. Kyle, a Wyoming native, has been with WCC since its inception. Growing up in Casper, Wyoming, he worked in nuclear missile silos and coal mines during his teenage years, receiving an AA in Political Science and a second in Spanish from Casper College in 2003. While in Casper, he studied under two of WCC’s eventual founders, Dr. Robert Carlson and Fr. Robert Cook. He began his journey toward Wyoming Catholic by serving as a dishwasher at the annual Wyoming School for Catholic Thought, where the idea for the College was first proposed.He graduated from Thomas Aquinas College in 2007 with a B.A. in Liberal Arts and returned to Wyoming (and Wyoming Catholic) as the inaugural Assistant Dean for Student Life—a position he held until departing in the Fall of 2009 to pursue a graduate degree in Sacred Theology from Austria’s International Theological Institute (ITI). While in Austria, he continued to work for the College, coordinating its inaugural high-school (PEAK) and adult education (WSCT) summer programs, before returning as a full-time professor in early 2012. Washut has taught across the College’s curriculum since his return—theology and philosophy, as well as her distinctive Trivium and Humanities courses. In addition to serving as Visiting Associate Professor of Patristics and Ecclesiastical History at St. Cyril and Methodius Byzantine Catholic Seminary in Pittsburgh, he has worked closely with a number of the College’s Administrative offices, including Admissions, Advancement, and the Outdoor Leadership Program (OLP). In the Fall of 2019, he was named Academic Dean and served in that capacity for four years before being named President in August 2023.On Blessed are the Joke Makers, the Dudes must take on the persona of a shop-a-holic to address the prompt, “I would be the patron saint of _______.” The TBD question of the day – share a story or memory about your grandfather. For this episode of Reverse Simpsons, Kyle and the hosts enjoy various strange drinks and finish the show by promoting the surprise drink they consumed.

Is Purgatory taught in Scripture and in the Fathers? William Albrecht Vs Fr. Ramsey

Jim Hickey brings the spicy to The BeatiDudes by sharing a full-blown meal from his Dallas-based restaurant Charlie’s Creole Kitchen. Instead of finishing the show differently, the entire show takes place over the course of appetizers, main courses, and desserts. Jim was raised by a father who left the church and a mother who practiced her Christian faith across multiple dominions. He was the only one of his siblings to be Baptized in the Catholic Church, and he remembers attending Mass with his Irish grandmother growing up before entering RCIA as a young man. Jim was not a big man heading into high school, but after a major growth spurt—9 inches in two years—he knew he was being called to play football. After one year of junior college, Jim walked on to the University of Georgia football team. After college, Jim went to work for a former Heisman trophy winner at a beer company. His career then took him to sales for an education software company working closely with underprivileged youth. He realized his life was missing Jesus Christ somewhere during this time. Jim shares one of his guiding lights, the Fulton Sheen reflections on the seven last words of Christ. That launches a crazy deep exploration of faith and manhood, including talks of his time at the Christ Renews His Parish retreat and Jim’s calling to the pro-life movement.

Join Sean in the Pub as he welcomes Father Troy Nguyen, whose journey to the priesthood was a true sojourn as a soul searching for the longing of his heart. Father Troy was born and raised in Calgary, and attended Minor Seminary in high school, which led directly into seminary in preparation for the priesthood. Not sure of his vocation, Father left the seminary for a time, working in various fields of employment, but felt unfulfilled. &nbsp;&nbsp;When he attended one of the God Squad conferences a few years ago, he credits being there with helping him discern a return to the seminary and his true vocation as a priest.

Why a Protestant Returned to the Catholic Church | Idaho Men's Conference 2021 | Eddie Trask

Is it lust or love? Many men are looking for a cure for lust and often think that marriage will cure it, only to discover the struggle follows them into married life. The truth is, marriage doesn’t magically cure lust. If you battled it before, you’ll still battle it after. Marriage doesn’t change the interior dispositions and temptations of man. Love does.
In this episode of The Catholic Gentleman, John Heinen and Devin Schadt expose one of the most misunderstood realities in marriage: the difference between lust and love. Wives know the difference, and they can feel when they are cherished and when they are being used. And if men don’t learn this distinction, it erodes trust, poisons communication, and slowly kills intimacy.

Fatherhood, Devotion to Mary, and Catholic Pet Peeves (Sam Guzman) | Ep. 300

The Blessed Virgin Mary is visited by the Archangel Gabriel and gives her humble “yes” to God’s desire for her to become the Mother of God. Every Catholic man can grow in happiness by growing in the Virtue of Humility so he can reject pride and do God’s will and by seeking the Fruits of Love, Patience, Kindness and Generosity from the Holy Spirit so he can be a blessing to others.

Episode 107 - The Archangel Gabriel’s Annunciation of the birth of Jesus to the Blessed Virgin Mary - Sunday December 24, 2023  – Lk 1:26-38

"Acquiring the Spirit of God is the TRUE AIM of our Christian Life, while prayer, fasting, alms-giving, and other good works done for Christ's sake are merely a means for acquiring the Spirit of God" (St. Seraphim of Sarov, On Acquisition of the Holy Spirit).
Referenced Scripture reading: <a href="https://bible.usccb.org/bible/readings/110820.cfm">Gospel of Matthew 25:1-13</a>.

But would you really die for your faith? Would you go to war for your country? 
 
This doesn&#39;t have to mean going to the front lines to fight. There is plenty of fighting to do here at home. 
 
Today&#39;s video evaluates whether or not we are really willing to die to self for the sake of others.

ILT Ep07 Effeminacy

Ministry is not a career…or at least…it shouldn’t be. However, ministry does demand professionalism in both approach and exercise. What does this mean? This talk invites the viewer to assess their own ministry behavior and re-examine the high standards set by the history of professional ministry throughout time. Learn more at https://osvtalks.com/ 

The Subtle Deterioration of True Professionalism with Jason Deuterman

In the ascent towards holiness and happiness, a Catholic man must build the good habits (Virtue, from the Latin, vir, meaning “manliness, moral strength, goodness, valor”) of the moral life and break the bad habits (Vice, from the Latin, vitium, meaning “defect, offense, blemish, imperfection”) which cause him to fall into sin and risk losing his salvation. The Church provides a comprehensive list of Virtues which fall into two major categories: Theological Virtues (Supernatural) and Cardinal Virtues (Human). Because it is impossible for a mere man ascend to Heaven on his own ability, God grants every Catholic man the supernatural help to grow in Virtue through the Gifts of the Holy Spirit which are freely available to every Catholic man who remains in a state of grace; even if a Catholic man falls into mortal sin and loses the Gifts of the Holy Spirit, he can repent, confess his sins in the Sacrament of Penance and return to a state of grace and regain access to the Gifts of the Holy Spirit. What a man needs to break Vice and build Virtue is to come to understand Vice and Virtue and then seek God’s help. To help men understand Virtue and Vice and take concrete action, <a href='http://everycathoicman.com/'>EveryCathoicMan.com</a> has developed the Litanies of Virtue.<a href='https://everycatholicman.com/overview-of-vice-virtue-and-the-holy-spirit/'>To learn more about Vice, Virtue and the Gifts and Fruits of the Holy Spirit, go to EveryCatholicMan.com.</a> <a href='https://everycatholicman.com/litany-of-justice-against-injustice/'>To see a written  version of the Litany of Justice go to EveryCatholicMan.com</a>.

LITANIES OF VIRTUE SERIES - The Litany of Justice (Against Injustice)

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.

Continue listening to find out what the heck the USCCB actually decided to do in the fall, why President Biden, Speaker Pelosi, and Catholic politicians are in danger when they receive Communion, and why Fr.

Guardian Angels, Demonic Tactics and Turning The Other Cheek- With Fr. Martins

Friends, today we continue our "Word on Fire Show" series on how to understand Genesis by focusing on Jacob, the son of Isaac and a patriarch of the ancient Jews. How should we understand his early struggle with Esau, the famous "Jacob's ladder," and his mysterious wrestling match and name change? That's what we discuss today. A listener asks, why is it that we just got this information from God, from the Bible, only 2,000 years ago? What happened to all those people who lived before the Bible?

WOF 316: Understanding Genesis: Jacob

Friends, an interesting article was published at The Gospel Coalition titled <a href= "https://www.thegospelcoalition.org/article/savior-stoics-modern-men/">"Savior or Stoics? Why Modern Men Look for Spiritual Wisdom Outside the Church"</a>. The author observed how a growing number of young men are filling a moral and spiritual void in their lives by turning to modern self-help books based on ancient Stoic thinkers. Authors such as Jordan Peterson, Ryan Holiday, and Navy SEAL Jocko Willink have won large followings of men by translating the principles of Marcus Aurelius, Seneca, and Epictetus into modern advice. Why is Stoicism so appealing to many young men today? And what lessons might Christians learn from this development? That is what Brandon Vogt and I discuss on today's episode of "The Word on Fire Show." A listener asks for recommendations before receiving the Sacrament of Reconciliation for the first time.
