Storms have a way of exposing the questions we are often afraid to ask out loud. In this episode, John reflects on grief, suffering, and the moments when life feels like it is taking on water, leading many of us to quietly wonder, “Does God even care?”

If you are walking through adversity, grief, or uncertainty, this episode is a reminder that God is not indifferent to your suffering. He sees you, He is present, and He is leading you to the other side. Stay in the boat.

Men and Women He created them. We know that everything God does is intentional. There is so much beauty in the human mind, body, heart, and soul. Today, Emily Harpole and Nathan Crankfield discuss the wonders of femininity, the many things women can learn from men, and how femininity can help change the world.&nbsp;
For men, it will be extremely insightful into the ways they can better understand and work with the women around them.

EP32 - Q&A with Fr. Larry Richards - The Reason For Our Hope Foundation

THE WAY OF THE CROSS
Episode 6 Message of Hope, The Eleventh and Twelfth Stations

In this sixth episode, Jon Leonetti breaks down the Eleventh and Twelfth Stations of the Cross. Jon helps us enter into the minds of the disciples at the time of the Crucifixion as he reflects on the theme of "The Messiah's End."

1. God's vision of victory was to die on the Cross. What does victory or winning look like in your life? Can victory come out of loss?

2. Jon Leonetti breaks down the privilege of Roman citizenship. Are you able to avoid persecution because of your background or relationships? How can you use your position of power to help others?

3. John was the only disciple brave enough to be present at Jesus' death. Have you been hesitant to be a witness of Jesus Christ for others because you were afraid of what others would think? How can you be a better witness of Christ?


THE MESSIAH'S END: ELEVENTH & TWELFTH STATIONS

“Return to me with all your heart, with fasting, weeping, and mourning; rend your hearts and not your garments.” Deacon Harold shares how we are "marked for change" more thoughts as we head into Ash Wednesday and the Lenten Season and also looking at Soulful Psalm

EP 69 Q&A with Fr. Larry Richards - Purgatory - The Reason For Our Hope Foundation

It is time to stop fighting like amateurs and start waging spiritual war like soldiers. In this powerful episode of The Manly Catholic, James sits down with Dr. Dan Schneider, a frequent flier (no pun intended) combat veteran, theologian, and co-author of <a href="https://tanbooks.com/products/books/spiritual-warfare-q-and-a-for-priests-and-laity/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Spiritual Warfare and Q&amp;A for the Priest and Laity</a> to expose the real strategies of the enemy and the ancient weapons every man must wield to defend his home, his wife, and his children.You’ll learn:<ul><li>How prayer, fasting, and vigils are the “ancient weapons” that defeat an ancient enemy.</li><li>The true difference between power and authority</li><li>How to protect your home</li><li>Why humility and obedience are the most dangerous weapons against the devil.</li><li>How Mary, the Queen of Heaven and the Destroyer of All Heresies, terrifies demons by her very presence.</li></ul>Dr. Dan’s message is clear: you are the spiritual head of your household, and the enemy knows it. Stop acting like a passive observer while your family is under attack. Take up your weapons. Impose order. Fast. Pray. Consecrate your home. Engage the battle.The Challenge: This week, every Catholic man must bless his home, pray a perimeter prayer before bed, and consecrate his family to the Sacred Heart of Jesus and the Immaculate Heart of Mary. Order begins when the man takes his rightful place as protector and provider.References:<ul><li><a href="https://tanbooks.com/products/books/spiritual-warfare-q-and-a-for-priests-and-laity/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Spiritual Warfare &amp; Q&amp;A for the Priest and Laity </a>by Dr. Dan Schneider and Jesse Romero</li><li><a href="https://tanbooks.com/products/books/the-liber-christo-method-a-field-manual-for-spiritual-combat/?revpage=2%20&amp;gc_id=10316277314&amp;h_ad_id=730848595836&amp;gad_source=1&amp;gad_campaignid=10316277314&amp;gbraid=0AAAAADyykAxTlTMyi9OL5XjxL41Viootp&amp;gclid=Cj0KCQjwsPzHBhDCARIsALlWNG3LCF6josS0KgekUUx4_oVWQKsCGaeqa3vCIlLZNDGXcgbjN5B75yEaAqBTEALw_wcB" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Liber Christo Method </a> by Dr. Dan Schneider</li><li><a href="https://tanbooks.com/products/books/true-devotion-to-mary-with-preparation-for-total-consecration/?srsltid=AfmBOoq9VCLWUCLwHp6pc9g6cRssSdpv0dmsdebqCm73nhJ-pqDlPIoj" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">True Devotion to Mary</a> by St. Louis de Montfort</li><li><a href="https://ignatius.com/to-raise-the-fallen-trtfp/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">To Raise the </a></li></ul><a href="https://www.buzzsprout.com/twilio/text_messages/1766613/open_sms" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Send us a text</a> <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://buymeacoffee.com/tmc">Support the show</a>Please prayerfully consider supporting the podcast on our <a href="https://buymeacoffee.com/tmc" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Buy Me A Coffee </a>page. to help grow the show to reach as many men as possible!

What we wished we learned in marriage prep | Emily Crankfield | Ep 263

In this episode, Dr. Deborah Savage of Franciscan University joins the conversation to unpack the "war on men," the masculine genius, and the deeper spiritual battle being waged against the human person. Drawing from St. John Paul II, Aquinas, and her own scholarship, she explores the unique gifts of men and women, the meaning of complementarity, and why fathers play a vital role in conferring identity. The discussion tackles hard truths about suicide rates, cultural blind spots, and misplaced anger, while also pointing to the beauty of God's design for man and woman. Listeners are invited to recover a deeper appreciation of our differences, not as a struggle for power, but as the foundation of authentic human flourishing.

To Love is to Give Oneself w/ Gus Lloyd

Today is a special edition of Beacon of Truth as we bring you Deacon Harold LIVE from the Deeper into the Psalms from the Ignite Bible Tour. He travels most of the year speaking and this conference he's challenging us to build a LEGACY.

LEGACY

He went from playing Little League baseball to 25-plus years of men's league softball to playing into his 50s with two years of vintage baseball. Meanwhile, he had also played Pop Warner football and then continued in the sport in high school and college, including being the placekicker on the undefeated 1977 team that is enshrined in the Iona College Sports Hall of Fame. He also spent a combined total of 15 seasons coaching high school and college football. He has been a columnist for Sports Collectors Digest magazine since 1993, specializing in Baseball Ballpark History. He is currently co-authoring his first nonfiction book, about the 1970s Oakland A's baseball team, to be published in 2025. And, having written other books, he says that his adult baseball novel "The Rovers: A Tale of Fenway" has the most overtly religious themes.

In this podcast, Dr Phil Chavez speaks again about what it is to be a Beloved Son in connection with the Liturgy. God desires that one gain grounding in their identity as well as their main duty in life. In this case, it is to embrace oneself as a Beloved Son, and thereafter offer worship God, particularly in the Mass. 

The secular world rejects an identity that is objective, and holds that everything is malleable and changeable. Dr. Chavez explains that the grounding of oneself as a Beloved Son is a good means by which to face a liquid society. To maintain grounding in one’s identity, and the primal duty of worship helps anyone looking for solid objectivity in the present age. Learn points as to how this becomes practical through a life of prayer and other means.

A Beloved Son Is Well Grounded | The Beloved Son 008

Sacred artist and stained-glass master Aaron Frei joins Paul Kolker, Nick Bezner, and Jeff Schiefelbein for a wide-ranging conversation that blends theology, art, discernment, and plenty of classic BeatiDudes banter. Aaron shares his journey from studying theology at the University of Dallas to discerning monastic life with the Hungarian Cistercians, and ultimately returning to serve the Church through sacred art.
The conversation explores why stained glass is uniquely powerful as an art form, relying on transmitted light rather than reflected light, and how imperfection allows beauty to shine more fully. Aaron offers rich spiritual metaphors drawn from his craft, connecting brokenness, reconciliation, and God’s grace with the way light passes through glass.
Aaron also opens up about leaving the monastery, wrestling honestly with the desire for family life, and discovering that discernment is not failure but fidelity. His story includes mentoring young artists, helping churches articulate sacred beauty, and even meeting his wife through a mosaic project that never came to be, proving that God still works through cancelled plans.
The episode wraps with humor, call-backs, and a challenge to listeners to be digital missionaries who do not stop at content but go to Mass, pray, and encounter Christ in the poor.
Key Themes and Takeaways
*Why stained glass depends on transmitted light and why imperfection increases beauty
*Discernment as dating rather than a one-time irreversible decision
*Learning holiness from community life, not just intellectual brilliance
*How God uses brokenness to let His light shine more clearly
*Sacred art as service to the Church, not personal expression alone

Logan O’Brien, Passing Game Coordinator for the Southlake Carroll Dragons, shares the highs and lows of high school football coaching with The BeatiDudes.Logan grew up playing football in San Angelo, Texas. As a junior, he helped his team snap a 21-game losing streak that season. After eight straight losses to start the year, they won the season's final two games. Logan then led the Bobcats to the first of nine straight playoff berths his senior season in 2010, including the program's first playoff win since 2006.After high school, Logan played for Eastern New Mexico University, scoring a critical touchdown to win the coveted Wagon Wheel trophy against West Texas A&amp;M. Logan met his future wife, Taylor, at Quarterback Ranch, where he made his first flirting attempt in front of her dad and brother by asking, “Can I take your trash?” Although that might not have been the winning line, the courting continued, and the couple married in 2022. Taylor founded Candid Dating, a virtual speed dating platform for Catholics looking to skip the swipe and get some face time.As a coach, Logan focuses on a potential player’s competitiveness, effort, and toughness, both physical and mental. In addition to coaching football in the fall and track in the spring, Logan also teaches Environmental Systems. Join Paul Kolker, Nick Bezner, Jeff Schiefelbein, and Logan O’Brien as they imagine an improv conversation leading into the upcoming season.

The Devil Hates a Healthy Home Life | Part 22 | Lent 2024

EP 152 Q&A With Fr. Larry Richards - The Reason For Our Hope Foundation

Scripture speaks throughout of marriage and its 'mystery,' its institution and the meaning God has given it, its origin and its end, its various realizations throughout the history of salvation, the difficulties arising from sin and its renewal 'in the Lord' in the New Covenant of Christ and the Church. We wrap up Marriage Week talking about The Biblical Foundations of Matrimony and Soulful Psalm 25:8-16

The Biblical Foundations of Matrimony Pt 4

In order to reveal himself to men, in the condescension of his goodness God speaks to them in human words: "Indeed the words of God, expressed in the words of men, are in every way like human language, just as the Word of the eternal Father, when he took on himself the flesh of human weakness, became like men."  Deacon Harold helps us explore ways to better understand God's word. Also looking into Soulful Psalm 136.

Understanding the Bible

C.S. Lewis wrote more than 30 books which have collectively sold over 100 million copies, including the Chronicles of Narnia series, Mere Christianity, and The Screwtape Letters. But of those thirty books, there was only one which Lewis described himself as "almost my favorite among my books," yet he was disappointed that "in general [the book] has been almost totally ignored by the public." The book was his prophetic text titled The Abolition of Man. It's an important book but one that many readers find dense and challenging. Thankfully, Michael Ward, one of the world's leading C.S. Lewis scholars, has stepped in to help. His groundbreaking new book titled <a href="https://wordonfire.org/humanity">After Humanity: A Guide to C.S. Lewis's 'The Abolition of Man</a> was just published by Word on Fire Academic. Today, Brandon Vogt sits down with Michael to discuss Lewis' original text and how Michael's new guide and commentary help readers make sense of Lewis's argument.

WOF 303: Which of C.S. Lewis's Books Was His Favorite?

In establishing the Church, the Lord established everything that makes that Church to be what it is.  The institution of the Sacraments by Christ is seen as a direct consequence of the institution of the Church by Christ. So, it’s not so much a direct action on one occasion by Jesus, so much as the whole action of the institution or establishment of the Church; that's what's come from Him, and then as that Church started establishing patterns or ritual behavior for itself, that is Christ instituting those Sacraments, but in an indirect fashion.  It is in this sense that we find Confirmation in the New Testament.  Talking more on this today along with Soulful Psalm 144

Ep 182 - Cold Showers and Holy Hours: Exodus 90 with Dr. Jared Staudt

Today, Deacon Harold breaks down the CONGREGATION FOR DIVINE WORSHIP AND THE DISCIPLINE OF THE SACRAMENT and how we can put them into practice in our faith. Also, looking into the Soulful Psalms with Psalm 92.

Liturgical Practice

The power of the Holy Spirit is with us. Today we are diving into the weekend as Deacon Harold breaks down The Holy Spirit and Divine Revelation in the Old Testiment. Also looking into more into Soulful Psalm 107.

The Holy Spirit and Divine Revelation

Holy Scripture, brethren, cries out to us, saying, "Everyone who exalts himself shall be humbled, and he who humbles himself shall be exalted" (Luke 14:11). Today Deacon Harold talks about what it means to have true humility and the 3 degrees of humility. Also, in the Soulful Psalms he looks into Psalm 119.

Humility

Our Lord says, “If anyone wishes to be first, he shall be the last of all and the servant of all.”  Humility doesn’t mean having low self-esteem, or being overly pious or holy because true humility isn’t about us.  Humility is not thinking less of yourself, it’s thinking of yourself less. Deacon Harold looks at Mark 9:30-37 to talk about humility as well as Soulful Psalm 39.
