A Catholic & Protestant Marriage Finds Jesus Christ in the Holy Eucharist | Guests Jim and Kara Johnson

Today Sam and John are joined by a shepherd and fatherly leader, Bishop Joseph Strickland of Tyler Texas. We have the great privilege of hearing from Bishop Strickland about why the world needs real men, as well as the virtues and spirituality needed to be a real man. Our modern times have thrown us dozens of competing images of what it means to be a man and we need strong examples to set things right. We discuss how you can embrace this call to true masculinity and live your God-given role in your family and society. 🔴 SPONSOR - Exodus 90 - https://ex90.cc/gentlemanWebsite - https://www.bishopstrickland.comTwitter - https://twitter.com/bishopoftyler -- SUPPORT THE CATHOLIC GENTLEMAN --https://www.patreon.com/catholicgentleman Learn more about your ad choices.

Bishop Strickland’s Direct Challenge to All Catholic Men

The uncommon courage of ordinary men who lived with fire in their souls.
In an age when manhood is under siege, these four saints stand like watchmen on the wall&mdash;men forged in the furnace of history, defiant in the face of tyranny, and unwavering in their devotion to truth. 4 Modern Saints for Men is a gripping, soul-stirring mini-series by Father Andrew Deacon Bennett that reveals how St. Thomas More, St. John Henry Newman, Blessed Jerzy Popiełuszko, and Blessed Vasyl Velychkovsky each became heroic witnesses to Christ in a hostile world.
🔹 Thomas More, the lion-hearted lawyer who chose a martyr&rsquo;s crown over political compromise. 🔹 John Henry Newman, the intellectual warrior who traded worldly accolades for the radical fidelity of faith. 🔹 Jerzy Popiełuszko, the priest who challenged communism with a microphone and a rosary. 🔹 Vasyl Velychkovsky, the bishop who risked everything to shepherd an underground Church through Soviet terror.
Each episode reveals how these men embraced sacrifice, led with conviction, and became beacons of courage for today&rsquo;s Catholic man. This isn&rsquo;t just history&mdash;it&rsquo;s a manual for spiritual battle. Because in every generation, God raises up men who refuse to bow.

25 Ways to Crush the Serpent

[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.

156: Should we be evangelizing the Jews? (Supersessionism) W/ Fr. William Goldin

In this episode of The Catholic Gentleman, Sam is joined by Fr. Dwight Longenecker to discuss why it is vitally important for a man to understand, live, and boldly confront evil as Christ's clear example and constant demand. Avoiding a nonconfrontational, feel good Gospel is not the way forward or the teachings of the Church. This widespread approach has created a wayward flock that indirectly teaches pacifism and has damaged uncountable lives.In this episode we discuss;<ul>
<li>How getting knocked outside our comfort zone can lead to right action</li>
<li>How the Church calls us to boldly proclaim Truth</li>
<li>The damage to society at large by watering down Christ's teaching</li>
<li>And More</li>

The Death of 3 Men

Happy Thanksgiving! Today John and Sam are joined by Jason Craig. Jason has spent years studying and defining the rites of passage boys must take to become men. He has applied this anthropological research to the teachings and lived reality of Christ and His Church, and he shares his discovery with us. The author of Leaving Boyhood Behind, he explains to us how societies have been built around raising boys to adult maturity through recognizable passages and more importantly how our society is lacking in providing these necessary stages of initiation.Fraternus - <a href="https://fraternus.net/">Click Here</a>St. Joseph Farm - <a href="https://stjosephsfarm.com/">Click Here</a>The Sword and Spade - <a href="https://www.theswordandspade.com/">Click Here</a>🔴 Join us on Catholic Gentleman Plus (To receive a ton of great content and strategies to become a better man.

151: Aquinas' 2nd argument for God's existence

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."

Perfectionism

Objection 3. Further, as it has been stated above, no feast is celebrated except of some saint. But some keep the feast of the Conception of the Blessed Virgin. Therefore it seems that in her very Conception she was holy; and hence that she was sanctified before animation. Reply to Objection 3. Although the Church of Rome does not celebrate the Conception of the Blessed Virgin, yet it tolerates the custom of certain churches that do keep that feast, wherefore this is not to be entirely reprobated. Nevertheless the celebration of this feast does not give us to understand that she was holy in her conception. But since it is not known when she was sanctified, the feast of her Sanctification, rather than the feast of her Conception, is kept on the day of her conception. ST. 3. Q 27. A 2. ---------- God so prepares and endows those, whom He chooses for some particular office, that they are rendered capable of fulfilling it, according to 2 Corinthians 3:6: "(Who) hath made us fit ministers of the New Testament." Now theBlessed Virgin was chosen by God to be His Mother. Therefore there can be no doubt that God, by His grace, made her worthy of that office, according to the words spoken to her by the angel (Luke 1:30-31): "Thou hast found grace withGod: behold thou shalt conceive," etc. But she would not have been worthy to be the Mother of God, if she had ever sinned. First, because the honor of the parents reflects on the child, according to Proverbs 17:6: "The glory of children are their fathers": and consequently, on the other hand, the Mother's shame would have reflected on her Son. Secondly, because of the singular affinity between her and Christ, who took flesh from her: and it is written (2 Corinthians 6:15): "What concord hath Christ with Belial?" Thirdly, because of the singular manner in which the Son of God, who is the "Divine Wisdom" (1 Corinthians 1:24) dwelt in her, not only in her soul but in her womb. And it is written (Wisdom 1:4): "Wisdom will not enter into a malicious soul, nor dwell in a body subject to sins." We must therefore confess simply that the Blessed Virgin committed no actual sin, neither mortal nor venial; so that what is written (Canticles 4:7) is fulfilled: "Thou art all fair, O my love, and there is not a spot in thee," etc. ST. 3. Q 27. A 4.

06: Why didn't you accept the immaculate conception, St. Thomas?

Alex Trevino is a strong Catholic husband, father, and businessman. In his college days at the University of Dallas, Alex discovered his passion for acting and film production. This episode begins with Alex recalling the story of meeting his wife while both acting in A Midsummer Night’s Dream together in college. Then we learn more about Alex’s career and his experience playing behind-the-scenes roles in movies like Little Boy. These experiences inspired Alex to launch a full-fledged video production and branding agency called Project Thirty-Six. On Blessed are the Joke Makers, the Dudes must take on the persona of a cartoon character to address the statement, “My old Catholic grandma is known for ______________.” After the break, we dive deeper into Alex’s business and gain a better understanding of his ideal client and project types. For TBD-Squared (The BeatiDudes Deck of Questions), the Dudes must share a personal quirk or two about themselves. And finally, Reverse Simpsons offers a popcorn round of quick-hit, one-word(ish) answers to questions about life. <h2>Follow Alex:</h2><a href="www.projectthirtysix.com">Project Thirty-Six</a>Instagram - @alextrevino1989<h2>Our Partners:</h2><a href="http://www.joinsolidarity.com/">Solidarity HealthShare</a><a href="https://sockreligious.com/pages/beatidudes">Sock Religious (10% Discount)</a><a href="https://decidedexcellence.com/">Decided Excellence</a><a href="https://spokestreet.com/">Spoke Street Media</a><a href="https://catholiccardgame.com/?sca_ref=4057467.xx2t04Acid">The Catholic Card Game</a><a href="https://divinecomedyimprov.com/">Divine Comedy</a><a href="https://www.undivided.life/">Undivided Life</a><h2>Follow The BeatiDudes:</h2><a href="https://www.undivided.life/podcasts">BeatiDudes Website</a><a href="https://www.linkedin.com/company/90739902/admin/">LinkedIn</a><a href="https://www.facebook.com/TheBeatiDudesPodcast">Facebook</a><a href="https://www.instagram.com/beatidudes/">Instagram</a><a href="https://twitter.com/The_BeatiDudes">Twitter</a><a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/schiefelbein/">Jeff Schiefelbein on LinkedIn</a>BeatiDudes Theme Song and Music By<a href="https://thepencilbureau.com/">The Pencil Bureau</a>

When it comes to learning how to lead no one can teach us better than Christ.  And for Christians who are trying to lead their world Christ is the ultimate and best reference point.  So how did he do it?  When he had his disciples to form in order to make them the leaders that he wanted them to be – how did he approach it?  In this first of a ten part series we try to answer those questions.  And let Jesus speak and form us as leaders today.  Christian leadership is the way of every disciple – then and now.

Young Earth Creationism: Gideon Lazar VS Jimmy Akin

Today I'm joined with my friend Emily Barry to discuss the four hymns Thomas wrote for the feast of Corpus Christi. --- HUGE THANKS to the following Patrons: Tom Dickson, Jack Buss, Sean McNicholl, Jed Florstat, Daniel Szafran, Phillip Hadden Katie Kuchar, Phillipe Ortiz, Russell T Potee, Sarah Jacob, Fernando Enrile --- Here are those hymns: Lauda Sion Sion, lift up thy voice and sing: Praise thy Savior and thy King, Praise with hymns thy shepherd true. All thou canst, do thou endeavour: Yet thy praise can equal never Such as merits thy great King. See today before us laid The living and life-giving Bread, Theme for praise and joy profound. The same which at the sacred board Was, by our incarnate Lord, Giv'n to His Apostles round. Let the praise be loud and high: Sweet and tranquil be the joy Felt today in every breast. On this festival divine Which records the origin Of the glorious Eucharist. On this table of the King, Our new Paschal offering Brings to end the olden rite. Here, for empty shadows fled, Is reality instead, Here, instead of darkness, light. His own act, at supper seated Christ ordain'd to be repeated In His memory divine; Wherefore now, with adoration, We, the host of our salvation, Consecrate from bread and wine. Hear, what holy Church maintaineth, That the bread its substance changeth Into Flesh, the wine to Blood. Doth it pass thy comprehending? Faith, the law of sight transcending Leaps to things not understood. Here beneath these signs are hidden Priceless things, to sense forbidden, Signs, not things, are all we see. Flesh from bread, and Blood from wine, Yet is Christ in either sign, All entire, confessed to be. They, who of Him here partake, Sever not, nor rend, nor break: But, entire, their Lord receive. Whether one or thousands eat: All receive the self-same meat: Nor the less for others leave. Both the wicked and the good Eat of this celestial Food: But with ends how opposite! Here 't is life: and there 't is death: The same, yet issuing to each In a difference infinite. Nor a single doubt retain, When they break the Host in twain, But that in each part remains What was in the whole before. Since the simple sign alone Suffers change in state or form: The signified remaining one And the same for evermore. Behold the Bread of Angels, For us pilgrims food, and token Of the promise by Christ spoken, Children's meat, to dogs denied. Shewn in Isaac's dedication, In the manna's preparation: In the Paschal immolation, In old types pre-signified. Jesu, shepherd of the sheep: Thou thy flock in safety keep, Living bread, thy life supply: Strengthen us, or else we die, Fill us with celestial grace. Thou, who feedest us below: Source of all we have or know: Grant that with Thy Saints above, Sitting at the feast of love, We may see Thee face to face. Amen. Alleluia. Pange Lingua Gloriosi Sing, my tongue, the Saviour's glory, Of His Flesh, the mystery sing; Of the Blood, all price exceeding, Shed by our Immortal King, Destined, for the world's redemption, From a noble Womb to spring. Of a pure and spotless Virgin Born for us on earth below, He, as Man, with man conversing, Stayed, the seeds of truth to sow; Then He closed in solemn order Wondrously His Life of woe. On the night of that Last Supper, Seated with His chosen band, He, the Paschal Victim eating, First fulfils the Law's command; Then as Food to all his brethren Gives Himself with His own Hand. Word-made-Flesh, the bread of nature By His Word to Flesh He turns; Wine into His Blood He changes: What though sense no change discerns. Only be the heart in earnest, Faith her lesson quickly learns. Down in adoration falling, Lo, the sacred Host we hail, Lo, o'er ancient forms departing Newer rites of grace prevail: Faith for all defects supplying, When the feeble senses fail. To the Everlasting Father And the Son who comes on high With the Holy Ghost proceeding Forth from each eternally, Be salvation, honor, blessing, Might and endless majesty. Amen. Alleluia. Verbum Supernum The Word descending from above, without leaving the right hand of his Father, and going forth to do his work, reached the evening of his life. When about to be given over to his enemies by one of his disciples, to suffer death, he first gave himself to his disciples as the bread of life. Under a twofold appearance he gave them his flesh and his blood; that he might thus wholly feed us made up of a twofold substance. By his birth he gave himself as our companion; at the Last Supper he gave himself as our food; dying on the cross he gave himself as our ransom; reigning in heaven he gives himself as our reward O salutary Victim, Who expandest the door of Heaven, Hostile wars press. Give strength; bear aid. To the Lord One in Three, May there be sempiternal glory; May He grant us life without end In the native land. Sacris Solemniis At this our solemn feast let holy joys abound, and from the inmost breast let songs of praise resound; let ancient rites depart, and all be new around, in every act, and voice, and heart. Remember we that eve, when, the Last Supper spread, Christ, as we all believe, the Lamb, with leavenless bread, among His brethren shared, and thus the Law obeyed, of all unto their sire declared. The typic Lamb consumed, the legal Feast complete, the Lord unto the Twelve His Body gave to eat; the whole to all, no less the whole to each did mete with His own hands, as we confess. He gave them, weak and frail, His Flesh, their Food to be; on them, downcast and sad, His Blood bestowed He: and thus to them He spake, "Receive this Cup from Me, and all of you of this partake." So He this Sacrifice to institute did will, and charged His priests alone that office to fulfill: to them He did confide: to whom it pertains still to take, and the rest divide. Thus Angels' Bread is made the Bread of man today: the Living Bread from heaven with figures dost away: O wondrous gift indeed! the poor and lowly may upon their Lord and Master feed. Thee, therefore, we implore, O Godhead, One in Three, so may Thou visit us as we now worship Thee; and lead us on Thy way, That we at last may see the light wherein Thou dwellest aye.

Are You Overwhelmed by the Gospel? w/ Fr. John Riccardo

It is impossible for happiness to consist in honor. For honor is given to a man on account of some excellence in him; and consequently it is a sign and attestation of the excellence that is in the person honored. Now a man's excellence is in proportion, especially to his happiness, which is man's perfect good; and to its parts, i.e. those goods by which he has a certain share of happiness. And therefore honor can result from happiness, but happiness cannot principally consist therein. --- Objection 1. It would seem that man's happiness consists in glory. For happiness seems to consist in that which is paid to the saints for the trials they have undergone in the world. But this is glory: for the Apostle says (Romans 8:18): "The sufferings of this time are not worthy to be compared with the glory to come, that shall be revealed in us." Therefore happiness consists in glory. Reply to Objection 1. The Apostle speaks, then, not of the glory which is with men, but of the glory which is from God, with His Angels. Hence it is written (Mark 8:38): "The Son of Man shall confess him in the glory of His Father, before His angels." Man's happiness cannot consist in human fame or glory. For glory consists "in being well known and praised," as Ambrose [Augustine, Contra Maxim. Arian. ii, 13 says. Now the thing known is related to human knowledge otherwise than to God's knowledge: for human knowledge is caused by the things known, whereas God's knowledge is the cause of the things known. Wherefore the perfection of human good, which is called happiness, cannot be caused by human knowledge: but rather human knowledge of another's happiness proceeds from, and, in a fashion, is caused by, human happiness itself, inchoate or perfect. Consequently man's happiness cannot consist in fame or glory. On the other hand, man's good depends on God's knowledge as its cause. And therefore man's beatitude depends, as on its cause, on the glory which man has with God; according to Psalm 90:15-16: "I will deliver him, and I will glorify him; I will fill him with length of days, and I will show him my salvation." ST I-II, Q 2. A2 &amp; 3. --- O Jesus! meek and humble of heart, Hear me. From the desire of being esteemed, Deliver me, Jesus.From the desire of being loved... From the desire of being extolled ... From the desire of being honored ... From the desire of being praised ... From the desire of being preferred to others... From the desire of being consulted ... From the desire of being approved ... From the fear of being humiliated ... From the fear of being despised... From the fear of suffering rebukes ... From the fear of being calumniated ... From the fear of being forgotten ... From the fear of being ridiculed ... From the fear of being wronged ... From the fear of being suspected ... That others may be loved more than I, Jesus, grant me the grace to desire it. That others may be esteemed more than I ... That, in the opinion of the world, others may increase and I may decrease ... That others may be chosen and I set aside ... That others may be praised and I unnoticed ... That others may be preferred to me in everything... That others may become holier than I, provided that I may become as holy as I should… 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.

A Missouri-Synod Lutheran Converts to Catholicism | Guest Roger Batt

In addition to being a loving father and husband, Jason Deuterman serves as the Director of Strategic Consulting and Innovation Design for Our Sunday Visitor. This episode starts with some incredible stories of how Jason has been connected to the BeatiDudes for many years and a true confession from Nick Bezner. Jason then reflects on his work in helping to bring the new evangelization of the Catholic church to light, especially through his work at both the Diocese of Dallas and Our Sunday Visitor. Years ago, Jason and his team launched a unique young adult ministry called “The 635” - - a nod to the main road around the city of Dallas and a tribute to John 6:35. These events were held in an old theater near a set of bars and restaurants in East Dallas that created a welcoming atmosphere to those looking for a night of praise and worship. On Blessed are the Joke Makers, the Dudes must take on the persona of Hardened Criminal to address the prompt, “David’s secret weapon to defeat Goliath was….” The show continues with a discussion on professionalism within ministry work and the need for excellence in our crafts. The TBD Question for this episode – Reflect on a Holy Spirit moment in your life. On Reverse Simpsons, Jason is surprised by a game of This is Your Life featuring voice recordings from his friends with various messages. Jason must correctly guess the friend and share more details on each of their comments.

175: Aquinas on the Transfiguration

We all know how important determination and effort is to succeed at what we do.  After all a large portion of success is determined by our effort to get there.  What can be overlooked in this process, however, is the nimbleness and agility of mind necessary in order to make the adaptations or even change course as needed on our pathway to success.  This flexibility is something that we can cultivate and grow and it is at the very root of the art of power.

39: Aquinas' 5 remedies for sorrow, with Fr. Damian Ference

On the contrary, It is written (Matthew 25:46): "These," namely the wicked, "shall go into everlasting punishment." Further, as reward is to merit, so is punishment to guilt. Now, according to Divine justice, an eternal reward is due to temporal merit: "Every one who seeth the Son and believeth in Him hath [Vulgate: 'that everyone . . . may have'] life everlasting." Therefore according to Divine justice an everlasting punishment is due to temporal guilt. Further, according to the Philosopher (Ethic. v, 5), punishment is meted according to the dignity of the person sinned against, so that a person who strikes one in authority receives a greater punishment than one who strikes anyone else. Now whoever sins mortally sins against God, Whose commandments he breaks, and Whose honor he gives another, by placing his end in some one other than God. But God's majesty is infinite. Therefore whoever sins mortally deserves infinite punishment; and consequently it seems just that for a mortal sin a man should be punished for ever. I answer that, Since punishment is measured in two ways, namely according to the degree of its severity, and according to its length of time, the measure of punishment corresponds to the measure of fault, as regards the degree of severity, so that the more grievously a person sins the more grievously is he punished: "As much as she hath glorified herself and lived in delicacies, so much torment and sorrow give ye to her" (Apocalypse 18:7). The duration of the punishment does not, however, correspond with the duration of the fault, as Augustine says (De Civ. Dei xxi, 11), for adultery which is committed in a short space of time is not punished with a momentary penalty even according to human laws [Cf. I-II, 87, 3, ad 1]. But the duration of punishment regards the disposition of the sinner: for sometimes a person who commits an offense in a city is rendered by his very offense worthy of being cut off entirely from the fellowship of the citizens, either by perpetual exile or even by death: whereas sometimes he is not rendered worthy of being cut off entirely from the fellowship of the citizens. wherefore in order that he may become a fitting member of the State, his punishment is prolonged or curtailed, according as is expedient for his amendment, so that he may live in the city in a becoming and peaceful manner. So too, according to Divine justice, sin renders a person worthy to be altogether cut off from the fellowship of God's city, and this is the effect of every sin committed against charity, which is the bond uniting this same city together. Consequently, for mortal sin which is contrary to charity a person is expelled for ever from the fellowship of the saints and condemned to everlasting punishment, because as Augustine says (De Civ. Dei xxi, 11), "as men are cut off from this perishable city by the penalty of the first death, so are they excluded from that imperishable city by the punishment of the second death." That the punishment inflicted by the earthly state is not deemed everlasting is accidental, either because man endures not for ever, or because the state itself comes to an end. Wherefore if man lived for ever, the punishment of exile or slavery, which is pronounced by human law, would remain in him for ever. On the other hand, as regards those who sin in such a way as not to deserve to be entirely cut off from the fellowship of the saints, such as those who sin venially, their punishment will be so much the shorter or longer according as they are more or less fit to be cleansed, through sin clinging to them more or less: this is observed in the punishments of this world and of purgatory according to Divine justice. We find also other reasons given by the saints why some are justly condemned to everlasting punishment for a temporal sin. One is because they sinned against an eternal good by despising eternal life. This is mentioned by Augustine (De Civ. Dei. xii, 12): "He is become worthy of eternal evil, who destroyed in himself a good which could be eternal." Another reason is because man sinned in his own eternity [Cf. I-II, 87, 3, ad 1]; wherefore Gregory says (Dial. iv), it belongs to the great justice of the judge that those should never cease to be punished, who in this life never ceased to desire sin. And if it be objected that some who sin mortally propose to amend their life at some time, and that these accordingly are seemingly not deserving of eternal punishment, it must be replied according to some that Gregory speaks of the will that is made manifest by the deed. For he who falls into mortal sin of his own will puts himself in a state whence he cannot be rescued, except God help him: wherefore from the very fact that he is willing to sin, he is willing to remain in sin for ever. For man is "a wind that goeth," namely to sin, "and returneth not by his own power" (Psalm 77:39). Thus if a man were to throw himself into a pit whence he could not get out without help, one might say that he wished to remain there for ever, whatever else he may have thought himself. Another and a better answer is that from the very fact that he commits a mortal sin, he places his end in a creature; and since the whole of life is directed to its end, it follows that for this very reason he directs the whole of his life to that sin, and is willing to remain in sin forever, if he could do so with impunity. This is what Gregory says on Job 41:23, "He shall esteem the deep as growing old" (Moral. xxxiv): "The wicked only put an end to sinning because their life came to an end: they would indeed have wished to live for ever, that they might continue in sin for ever for they desire rather to sin than to live." Still another reason may be given why the punishment of mortal sin is eternal: because thereby one offends God Who is infinite. Wherefore since punishment cannot be infinite in intensity, because the creature is incapable of an infinite quality, it must needs be infinite at least in duration. And again there is a fourth reason for the same: because guilt remains for ever, since it cannot be remitted without grace, and men cannot receive grace after death; nor should punishment cease so long as guilt remains. --- 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.

25: Does Hell exist? Is it eternal? With Fr. Chis Pietraszko

YOU are a leader!! We are all leaders. Leadership, in its simplest form, is influence. And we all influence people every single day, for better or worse, whether we like it or not. Parents, priests, bosses, spouses, and Christians in general are all leaders! We are all called to be an example to others and to help them remove the obstacles that stand between them and fulfilling their full potential. It's time we take responsibility for this and begin to be intentional about growing our leadership skills.&nbsp;
Fr Jonathan Meyer is a consistent guest on the podcast. He serves as the pastor for All Saints Parish in Guilford IN. We highly recommend you check out his parish's YouTube channel to catch his weekly homilies. Fr Meyer also serves as a member of the Board of Directors for Seeking Excellence.&nbsp;

Ep 6 | Let's Talk About Leadership! w/ Fr Jonathan Meyer

The body is meant to teach us about the soul. In the Church, we often hear about how the body is a temple of the Holy Spirit and that we ought to take great care of our bodies. But why don't we? Christians aren't any more fit or healthy than the average population. But doesn't our faith teach us to be good stewards of the gift of our bodies? How did our society get to be as obese as we are? What does physical excellence practically look like? All this and more in today's show!&nbsp;

The conversation also delves into the significance of authentic relationships in faith, the role of cooking traditions, and the influence of saints in their lives. The episode concludes with reflections on the journey of faith and the importance of community engagement.

A Dram with Richard Beaulieu

Without a doubt the life of St. Paul is one of the best places to study leadership in The New Testament.  Not only is his life an example of leadership, but in his first and second letters to Timothy St. Paul exposes his heart.  He writes to his beloved son, Timothy, whom he has formed in the faith, a letter of encouragement to go all the way to the end to mee the demands of leading God’s people.  His letter gives us many wonderful insights, especially in how to rekindle the fire.

“In your anger do not sin” - Ephesians 4:26

This week John and Victor continue their Lenten Series on the seven deadly sins and how they impede us from being able to "return to God with our whole hearts" ( Joel 2:12). The sin of the week is Anger. Many of us struggle almost daily with anger. Sometimes our anger is just and sometimes it is unjust. So how do you know the difference and if your anger is actually a sin? If your anger is festering and is bad for you then how do you rid yourself of it? Listen into this week’s episode as John and Victor seek to find the answers to dealing with anger in a healthy way and discuss the methods in which we can utilize charity and forgiveness as a remedy for unjust anger. 

In this episode:
John and Vic cover the catechism and Archbishop Fulton Sheen’s definition of anger
If anger is really a sin
The two types of anger
The remedy for unjust anger

A Protestant Composer Explores Christian History and Becomes Catholic

The work of St. Thomas Aquinas remains at the center of Catholic tradition.  In his many writings Thomas treats of leadership in many different ways.  But nowhere is his treatment as concise or condensed as in his letter to the King of Cyprus in his book De Regno.  I’d like to continue lessons that I’ve given on this book about leadership.  This is lesson number two on Leaders of the Common Good.

What Early Christians Believed About The Eucharist

The BeatiDudes proudly present the second of three segments recorded live at their booth during the 10th National Eucharistic Congress.Luis Gonzales from episodes #075 and #076 pops by the booth to kick off the guest appearances and shares his joy for the Eucharist and his love for serving others. On Blessed are the Joke Makers with Luis, the Dudes must take on the persona of a magician to address the prompt, “I would _________, for Christmas.” The TBD Question with Luis and the Dudes – When you are walking around the NEC, which religious order connects with you in an emotional and/or spiritual way? Next, a young man named Jonathan from Colorado agrees to jump into the guest seat without knowing what he is getting into. He was visiting the Congress with his immediate and extended family. He shared details about his work with robotics, his appreciation for family, and his excitement to hear Chris Stefanick and many others. What happens next nearly breaks the internet – all seven of Jeff Schiefelbein’s kids jumped on the show to laugh, scream, and serve as extra special guests. Lorelei and Emilia both get to spend some special time as individual guests. Next, with Emilia as the judge, the Dudes play another round of Blessed are the Joke Makers, where they must take on the persona of an extraterrestrial to address the prompt, “The best pilgrimages offer ____ to their pilgrims.” Following the appearance of her kids, Jeff’s wife Amanda jumps on the show for some quick encouragement and constructive feedback.Then Tate from Tampa joins the show. He is on a school trip with friends and chaperones and looking to fall more in love with the Eucharist. Tate judges the BeatiDudes on Blessed are the Joke Makers, in which the Dudes must take on the persona of Geekiest Tech Nerd to address the prompt, “Doubting Thomas wished he was known for ______.”Jose from Indiana and three of his five kids stop by the booth for some authentic fraternity. He reflects on the ways in which we can live our faith in everyday life. After Jose, the show concludes with Lauren Moore from the Catholic Music Initiative.

Call to Adventure w/ Sean O'Brien

Episode 28 - Q&A with Fr. Larry Richards - The Reason For Our Hope Foundation

What every man needs but rarely finds is brotherhood. In this episode of Heroic Hotline, Brett Powell and Sean Lynn dive deep into the loneliness epidemic men face&mdash;from pastors and bishops to fathers, leaders, and everyday guys. What if the secret to resilience isn&rsquo;t standing alone, but standing together?&nbsp;
Discover why honoring masculinity is essential, how &ldquo;sacred brotherhood&rdquo; heals hidden wounds, and why leaders especially need spaces where they can be known without shame. Along the way, Brett and Sean uncover the battles men are called to fight, the adventure they long to live, and the beauty they are meant to protect. If you&rsquo;ve ever wondered why life feels heavier when carried alone&mdash;or how to build friendships that actually last&mdash;this conversation might change the way you see brotherhood forever.

What Every Man Needs But Rarely Finds | Heroic  Hotline | Brett Powell

I think leaders often get a bad name.  We are portrayed as people whose vision makes us hard and whose clarity makes us intransient. But a Christian leader is called to be something more.  The Acts Of The Apostles show us St. Peter as a leader who is vulnerable, who is emotionally engaged and, therefore, who is even more effective.

DGT Episode 49 - Peter And A Leader's Vulnerability - St. Peter Part 12

Fr. Dave and Dcn. Bob discuss the World Cup Final (which Bob didn’t see), the new Avatar movie (which Fr. Dave hasn’t seen), and the fourth reason for the Incarnation.

Ep 135 - Removing the Stain on Your Soul, What's Up with Indulgences Anyways?

If our identity includes being a warrior, that must mean there is a war to be fought. I can assure you, we are at war and engaged in a real spiritual battle. We have three main enemies of our soul that oppose our journey to holiness: the world, the flesh, and the devil. Understand the battle, then you can understand how to defeat the Enemy.

Ep 8: Who Are You? Your Identity as a Warrior for the Kingdom

Seeking Excellence Podcast #163
Do most people go to Heaven? I think the world is pretty split on that question. Many of us think that at least most good people go to Heaven? But what does that really even mean?&nbsp;
Will I go to Heaven? That is the question we should be most concerned about. But that leads us back to the original question. If most people go to Heaven, then I'd say my chances are pretty good. If, on the other hand, most people do NOT go to Heaven, then I better evaluate my life and try to gauge where I'd end up if I were to die today.&nbsp;
The Catholic Church (and Christ Himself) has much to say on this topic. Today, we take a deep dive into this urgent and necessary question!&nbsp;

Most of us spend most of our time working.  And yet most of us have a hard time linking what we do when we work to the most important of tasks – namely, our relationship with God.  In this series I want to explore the deep foundations of the work that we do and its link to our spirituality.

Masculinity has been neutered. In an effort to escape the tyranny of toxic masculinity, we have made modern day men into cowards. 
 
Men are told to avoid danger, avoid strength, avoid boldness - to not be a hero. 
 
Men know that they have an innate, deep desire to do something great. They want to be a part of something bigger than themselves. They want to be strong, dangerous, and heroic. 
 
It&#39;s time we start to embrace that desire rather than run from it. 
 
Be your best!

Selfishness & Narcissism

<h3>Joseph Pearce Author, Professor and Convert</h3>
Understanding Joseph to be an Islay guy, Sean pours out the usual friendly measure of a dram of Laphroaig Quarter Cask. &nbsp;Joseph, joining us from 20 miles south of Greenville South Carolina, has already come prepared with a dram of his favourite, Lagavulin 16 year old whisky; not as smoky as the Laphroaig, both light on the nose. But when you taste it, it’s a different matter. &nbsp;https://jpearce.co/
Come and have yourself a seat in the pub as Sean pours us a drink. &nbsp;Close your eyes and you’ll swear you’re in England as you hear this former agnostic and supremacist speak of delights of a good Scotch, his conversion, his play and how in it we see not only the conversion of Siegfried Sassoon to Catholicism but of Death itself. &nbsp;Find out what both he and J.R.R. Tolkien have in common.
Hear what he dares to say to his 18 year old self, knowing full well that this imposing man would not even listen to himself, what he has to say about love. &nbsp;&nbsp;And before he answers the question, guess what you think is his favourite Saint.

A Dram With Joseph Pearce

Friends, in today's episode of "The Word on Fire Show," we share Lecture 1 from Peter Kreeft's new 12-part video series on <a href="https://wordonfire.org/philosophy" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">"Socrates' Children: The Great Debates of Philosophy."</a> In this lecture series, Dr. Peter Kreeft examines key ideas in philosophy by comparing and contrasting two representative philosophers in each lecture. The first lecture compares the father of philosophy, Socrates, with the Sophists, whose philosophy is marked more by cleverness and emotion rather than by wisdom and truth. This video series is being released alongside Word on Fire's new book series by Kreeft, titled <a href= "https://wordonfire.org/philosophy?_ga=2.128706956.1681425296.1677787164-1034457484.1641079730&_gl=1*15ctd40*_ga*MTAzNDQ1NzQ4NC4xNjQxMDc5NzMw*_ga_4081DYV3TL*MTY3Nzc4OTE1MS40OTMuMS4xNjc3NzkwNzM2LjQ4LjAuMA.." target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Socrates' Children: An Introduction to Philosophy from the 100 Greatest Philosophers</a>. In this four-volume series, Kreeft examines with his characteristic wit and clarity, the big ideas of four major eras—ancient, medieval, modern, and contemporary—and immerses the reader in the "great conversation" the ongoing dialogue among the great thinkers of history.

WOF 376: Peter Kreeft on Socrates vs. the Sophists

When we assume a role of leadership we set ourselves apart from the people that we lead.  By definition the leader is at the top or first in line.  And leaders in general play positions in society where power is a part of their lives.  But what do we do as Christians?  Shouldn’t we be the same as every other Christian?  And what if our position of leadership brings us a little too close to the world and its way of thinking and acting?  What did our Lord do?  How did He live?

Parenting in a World Gone Woke

"Humility, humility and always humility. Satan fears and trembles before humble souls. The Lord is willing to do great things, but on condition that we are truly humble" (Padre Pio).
Be humble enough to let go of your comfortable bias.

Toxic Bias

The North Lawndale Kinship Initiative Director for Old St. Patrick's Church in downtown Chicago, directing a ministry of community development. In that role he has set up a neighborhood sports collaborative called the North Lawndale Athletic & Recreation Association. Many people know him as coordinator for youth and young adult parish ministry, which he started doing 35 years ago and to some degree still goes on now. As a student he was the football manager for the team at his Catholic high school where he was able to learn the skills and the science of coaching, which he used when his parish started and needed a coach for a CYO football team, and that led to a whole career of coaching youth athletics across a variety of sports.

Episode 265 - Jesus rebukes Martha’s distraction and praises Mary’s devotion to Him - Sunday July 20, 2025 - Lk 10:38-42

Over 83 percent of Americans still believe in miracles, but what, specifically, are miracles? What are the grounds for believing in them, especially for non-eye witnesses? In the Catholic context, who has the authority to deem an event miraculous? Should Catholics incorporate devotions to Church-approved supernatural events like apparitions of the Virgin Mary and post-Ascension appearances of Jesus Christ into their faith life? We discuss the Catholic understanding of miracles and how the miraculous fits with a comprehensive evangelical vision of the life of the Church. A listener asks if it was a sin when those healed by Jesus in the Bible told others of their miraculous healing, though Jesus had told them not to tell. 00:00 | Intro 01: 20 | Update on Winona-Rochester's new pastoral center 03: 10 | Distinguishing miracles from improbable or impossible events 06:15 | Conditions necessary for the miraculous 10:58 | The relationship between nature and grace 14:10 | How miracles are confirmed 16:44 | Science and miracles 20:09 | Miracles and the Bible 23:19 | If God's revelation is complete, why do miracles continue? 25:50 | The Vatican's recent document on apparitions 27:14 | Addressing skepticism of the miraculous 31:05 | Listener question 32:54 | Join the Word on Fire Institute Links: <ul> <li>Poll citation: <a href= "https://thehill.com/blogs/blog-briefing-room/4400922-americans-ghosts-aliens-devil-survey/"> https://thehill.com/blogs/blog-briefing-room/4400922-americans-ghosts-aliens-devil-survey/</a></li> <li>Word on Fire Institute: <a href= "https://institute.wordonfire.org/" target="_blank" rel= "noreferrer noopener">https://institute.wordonfire.org/</a></li> </ul> NOTE: Do you like this podcast? <a href= "https://www.wordonfire.org/ignite-wof-show" target="_blank" rel= "noreferrer noopener">Become a Word on Fire IGNITE member</a>!
