This is the second part of a series responding to a viral YouTube video titled <a href= "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TgisehuGOyY" target="_blank" rel= "noopener">"Aquinas and the Cosmological Arguments"</a> (750,000+ views), which claims that Thomas Aquinas' arguments for God have been decisively refuted. But have they? Bishop Barron responds to the video and shows that when properly understood, Thomas' arguments are as strong today as ever before. A listener asks how the word "Gospel" would have been understood in the first century. SPECIAL: Pre-order the hardcover book today for just $19.95 (26% off) and free shipping.

INNOVATION and the CATHOLIC CHURCH | Jason Deuterman, OSV Institute | Episode #040

Father Michael McGivney is a documentary that brings to life the story of one of America's most extraordinary Catholic priests. Born in Connecticut of Irish immigrant parents just a few years before the Civil War, Michael McGivney grew up at a time when millions of Catholic immigrants were struggling to overcome poverty and prejudice. As a parish priest in the gritty New England manufacturing town of New Haven, he made a deep impact on his community, earning the respect of the Protestant establishment and the love of his parishioners at St. Mary's Church. Emboldened to care for families threatened by the death of the breadwinner, Fr. McGivney founded the Knights of Columbus, a mutual benefit society that today remains the world's largest Catholic lay organization with 1.8 million members in 13 nations. This film offers a rare glimpse into the life of an extraordinary priest and visionary leader. From defending the persecuted Church to protecting widows and orphans, Father Michael McGivney celebrates the triumphs and tribulations of a priest who may very well be America's first canonized parish priest.

This movie is not rated, but is suitable for all ages.

68: Responding to Hank Green's objections to Aquinas' 5 ways

Season Five explores the gift of Godly Friendship and why it matters.

Introduction to Season 5: Manly Friendship

In this episode, we hear from Steve Ray about two different types of pilgrimages: a pilgrimage of faith to the Catholic Church; and a literal pilgrimage through the Holy Land. Steve and his wife Janet have traveled to the Holy Land over 180 times exploring, filming, and leading thousands of pilgrims. We discuss the importance of pilgrimages and the power that comes from experiencing the very places Jesus, His mother, and the Saints walked. Steve Ray has authored many books, including the best-selling book "Crossing the Tiber: Evangelical Protestants Discover the Historic Church", and is a highly acclaimed speaker and producer of Catholic films.Steve Ray is a convert to the Catholic Church and the author of three best-selling Ignatius Press books (Crossing the Tiber, Upon this Rock, and St. John’s Gospel). He speaks at conferences around the world.  He is a regular guest on The Journey Home and has appeared on many other radio and TV programs, including Fox News. He is writer, producer and host of the 10-part video/DVD series The Footprints of God: the Story of Salvation from Abraham to Augustine filmed entirely on location in the Holy Land and surrounding countries. Steve and his wife Janet are certified guides to the Holy Land and lead pilgrimages throughout the Middle East and Rome. He and Janet live in Michigan. They have four children and ten grandchildren.Host: Mario Costabile Cohost: Dr. David HajdukFollow Array of Hope Ministries on:Facebook: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/ArrayOfHopeMinistries">@arrayofhopeministries</a>Instagram: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/arrayofhopeministries/">@arrayofhopeministries</a>Twitter: <a href="https://twitter.com/AOHMinistries">@aohministries</a>TikTok: <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@arrayofhopeministries">@arrayofhopeministries</a> LinkedIn: <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/company/array-of-hope-ministries/">@arrayofhopeministries</a> YouTube: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/c/arrayofhope">@ArrayofHopeMinistries</a>

Going on Pilgrimage w/ Steve Ray

From politics to COVID, this past year has been filled with disagreement. That led Christian apologist Natasha Crain to write an article titled <a href= "https://natashacrain.com/disagreement-fatigue-and-2020-how-the-events-of-the-year-will-shape-christian-interactions-in-2021-and-beyond/"> “Disagreement Fatigue and 2020: How the Events of the Year Will Shape Christian Interactions in 2021 and Beyond.”</a> Bishop Barron and Brandon discuss the article, focusing on three of Crain's predictions for 2021: more Christians will be hesitant to speak publicly about their faith, Christians will increasingly see apologetics as a contributor to (unhealthy) disagreement, and belief in a generic God will continue to be acceptable in culture, but belief in Jesus as God will become increasingly gauche. A listener asks, what form was Jesus in before the incarnation?

WOF 279: Overcoming Disagreement Fatigue

Grab a seat in the pew as John and Victor discuss humility and its importance as the foundation of the Christian life.

Humility

Today we’re talking to renowned Boston College professor of philosophy Dr. Peter Kreeft about a topic we all face in our lives: suffering. In his book “Making Sense Out of Suffering,” Dr. Kreeft shares an approach that helps us find meaning and purpose during distress and hardship.

On this podcast, we learn that:

- When we suffer, God is there with us
- We cannot negotiate our suffering with God
- A loving, benevolent God creates purpose out of our suffering

Suffering with Dr. Peter Kreeft

After perusing <a href= "http://www.pewresearch.org/fact-tank/2016/08/24/why-americas-nones-left-religion-behind/"> the latest Pew Study</a> on why young people are leaving the active practice of Christianity, Bishop Barron noticed that (once again) the reasons they offer for abandoning Christianity are entirely not compelling. That is to say, any theologian, apologist, or evangelist worth his salt should be able easily to answer these objections to faith and hopefully encourage the youngster to reconsider the Truth of the Church. With this in mind for today's episode, Bishop offers smart, passionate responses to the common misconceptions and objections that continue to lure young people away from God. The listener question asks which books are best for evangelizing atheists from both a rational and emotional standpoint. Topics Discussed <ul> <li>0:17  - Introduction, Bishop's trip to Lake Placid and current reading list</li> <li>3:25 - Bishop's reaction to young people leaving the church?</li> <li>5:15 - Should we avoid pressuring them and let young people return on their own?</li> <li>7:48 - Some common objections: Is religion the opiate of the people?</li> <li>11:10 - Has science disproven religion?</li> <li>15:15 - If religion causes so much violence, how can it possibly be right?</li> <li>17:50 - Does the sex abuse scandal invalidate the Church?</li> <li>20:53 - Is it better to be open-minded to all world religions?</li> <li>26:48 - What if church is too boring and you don't have time?</li> <li>30:40 - How would Bishop Barron encourage young people to return to the Church?</li> <li>32:09 - Question from listener: What are some good books to battle atheism both from a rational and emotional standpoint?</li> </ul> Bonus Resources <ul> <li>Videos <ul> <li><a href= "http://www.wordonfire.org/resources/video/effective-evangelization/228/"> Bishop Barron on Effective Evangelization </a>(Bishop Barron)</li> <li><a href= "http://www.wordonfire.org/resources/video/what-is-god-faith-seeks-understanding/118/"> Bishop Barron on “What is God?”</a></li> <li><a href= "http://www.wordonfire.org/resources/video/christianity-and-ethics/4666/"> Bishop Barron on Christianity and Ethics</a></li> </ul> </li> <li>DVD's <ul> <li><a href= "http://www.wordonfire.org/resources/dvd/catholicism-the-new-evangelization/2334/"> CATHOLICISM: The New Evangelization</a> (Word On Fire)</li> <li> <a href= "http://www.wordonfire.org/resources/dvd/faith-clips/4421/">Faith Clips</a> (Word On Fire)</li> </ul> </li> <li> Articles   <ul> <li><a href= "http://www.wordonfire.org/resources/article/the-joy-of-evangelizing/473/"> The Joy of Evangelization</a> (Bishop Barron)</li> <li><a href= "http://www.wordonfire.org/resources/article/practical-strategies-of-evangelization/322/"> Practical Strategies of Evangelization</a> (Bishop Barron)</li> </ul> </li> <li>Books <ul> <li><a href= "http://www.wordonfire.org/resources/book/seeds-of-the-word-finding-god-in-the-culture/4683/"> Seeds of the Word: Finding God in the Culture </a>(Bishop Barron)</li> <li><a href= "http://www.wordonfire.org/resources/book/word-on-fire-proclaiming-the-power-of-christ/2367/"> Word On Fire: Proclaiming the Power of Christ</a> (Bishop Barron)</li> <li><a href= "http://www.amazon.com/Answering-Atheism-Make-Logic-Charity/dp/1938983432/?tag=stno-20"> Answering Atheism: How to Make the Case for God with Logic and Charity</a> by Trent Horn</li> <li><a href= "http://www.wordonfire.org/resources/book/thomas-aquinas-spiritual-master/2358/"> Thomas Aquinas: Spiritual Master</a> by Bishop Robert Barron</li> <li><a href= "https://www.amazon.com/Mere-Christianity-C-S-Lewis/dp/0060652926"> Mere Christianity</a> by C.S.

A listener asks why God needed a second coming of Christ and couldn't have accomplished everything during his first coming.

Welcome to Leadership Where It Matters Most w/ Brett Powell

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.

Why Boys Are Not Becoming Men

Abiding in Hope

The Catholic Men's Leadership Alliance (CMLA) aims to equip men for their role as protectors and leaders within their families, communities, parishes, and nation.   Become a leader | Learn more

Our alliance emphasizes the importance of men coming together to grow in faith, strengthen each other, and embrace their duty as servant leaders. We recognize the challenges society faces if men abandon their responsibilities. 
We need men to step up and lead. 

CMLA empowers young leaders to build authentic relationships, collaborate, and share resources. By encouraging men to take action and support one another, the alliance fights against complacency and empowers men to be positive forces in the world.

Why a Protestant Youth Pastor Reverted to the One, Holy, Catholic, and Apostolic Church | Guest Jeremy Rivera

Andrew Laubacher, aka ALOB, was raised in Ventura, California, where he attended Mass, played many sports, hung out at the beach, and was always into music. He attended Catholic school before switching to a public school because he was “tired of the Catholic rules.” In high school, he fell away from his faith and lived the party lifestyle. After a serious wake-up call, he attended a Steubenville Youth Conference, where he found God. That changed his life. ALOB received degrees in theology and philosophy from Franciscan University.ALOB is now the Executive Director for Humanality, a nonprofit that aims to reclaim the adventure of human connection by helping people get off of their phones and into reality.

How Atheism and Protestantism Led to a Catholic Conversion

How did Jesus Christ form his apostles to be bold proclaimers of His word?  One way was by sending them where they thought they could never go – into the darkness and into fearful places armed with nothing more than his word and the powers of His priesthood.  And yet they were not alone.  In fact he promised that he would be with them always.  Doesn’t he do the same with us today?  In this final segment of our ten part series we look at the way he formed his apostles to understand how he trains us for leadership today.

DGT Episode 228 - Treading The Winepress - The Call Part 10

The Crowning of Thorns draws a definitive line in the sand, the Kingdom of God and the kingdom of the world are at odds. They fell to their knees and knelt before Him not to praise Him, not to worship Him but to humiliate Him.

Episode 4 - The Crowning with Thorns

Getting ready for Christmas is more than watching “Elf” or buying gifts. In this episode, John and Victor dive into what it means to LIVE into the reason for the season. 

In this episode, you will hear John and Victor say:

- Advent calls us to a preparation of our hearts and of our minds.
- Let the trumpets blast so we can turn our attention toward the Lord. 
- Christmas without Christ is unsatisfactory.
- Stay awake. Stay Vigilant!

<blockquote>
<div>March 2nd is Ash Wednesday, and over a billion people will start living different in some way. Maybe giving up chocolate or alcohol, or whatever.</div>
For a lot of Catholics, Lent is a time of finding the easiest way to “give something up”. But, at the end of those 40 days, did that sacrifice really make a difference?

This year, there’s a new opportunity out there specifically for men that will actually help you grow closer to God and become a better man.

You’ve heard me talk about Exodus 90 — but let me tell you about Exodus Lent: a 40-day journey that will challenge you to dig a little deeper this year.

If your first reaction is: “I’m absolutely not taking cold showers” well you’re in luck: men who take on the Exodus Lent get to take warm showers, drink alcohol, and — when you’re with others — watch TV and sports. But don’t be fooled, this will still be a challenging 40 days of preparation for living the Christian life, for the rest of your life.

Here’s how it works:

First — Over the 40 days of Lent, men commit to daily prayer, setting aside a minimum of 20 minutes to spend with the Lord. Each day includes a scripture reading and reflection written to help men better understand, grow in, and live virtue.

Second — More than just giving up chocolate, men take up a range of disciplines and sacrifices for the season of Lent. Sweets, snacks, social media, are all gone.

Third — Men commit to a fraternity of 5-7 men. Each week, the fraternity meets to pray together, check in, hold each other accountable and encourage one another.

On Easter Sunday, you’ll walk away with a new and lasting understanding of what it means to live the full Christian life. Chocolate bunnies and all.

WOF 312: Understanding Genesis: Abraham and Isaac

Evangelization  is for All Seasons... Especially Now with Deacon Nathan Gunn

THE ANGELIC SALUTATION by Thomas Aquinas translated by Joseph B. Collins “Hail Mary” We must now consider concerning the first part of this prayer that in ancient times it was no small event when Angels appeared to men; and that man should show them reverence was especially praiseworthy. Thus, it is written to the praise of Abraham that he received the Angels with all courtesy and showed them reverence. But that an Angel should show reverence to a man was never heard of until the Angel reverently greeted the Blessed Virgin saying: “Hail.” In olden time an Angel would not show reverence to a man, but a man would deeply revere an Angel. This is because Angels are greater than men, and indeed in three ways. First, they are greater than men in dignity. This is because the Angel is of a spiritual nature: “You make your angels spirits” [Ps 103:4]. But, on the other hand, man is of a corruptible nature, for Abraham said: “I will speak to my Lord, whereas I am dust and ashes” [Gen 18:27]. It was not fitting, therefore, that a spiritual and incorruptible creature should show reverence to one that is corruptible as is a man. Secondly, an Angel is closer to God. The Angel, indeed, is of the family of God, and as it were stands ever by Him: “Thousands of thousands ministered to Him, and ten thousand times a hundred thousand stood before Him” [Dan 7:10]. Man, on the other hand, is rather a stranger and afar off from God because of sin: “I have gone afar off” [Ps 44:8]. Therefore, it is fitting that man should reverence an Angel who is an intimate and one of the household of the King. Then, thirdly, the Angels far exceed men in the fullness of the splendor of divine grace. For Angels participate in the highest degree in the divine light: “Is there any numbering of His soldiers? And upon whom shall not His light arise?”[Job 25:3]. Hence, the Angels always appear among men clothed in light, hut men on the contrary, although they partake somewhat of the light of grace, nevertheless do so in a much slighter degree and with a certain obscurity. It was, therefore, not fitting that an Angel should show reverence to a man until it should come to pass that one would be found in human nature who exceeded the Angels in these three points in which we have seen that they excel over men—and this was the Blessed Virgin. To show that she excelled the Angels in these, the Angel desired to show her reverence, and so he said: “Ave (Hail).” “Full of grace” The Blessed Virgin was superior to any of the Angels in the fullness of grace, and as an indication of this the Angel showed reverence to her by saying: “Full of grace.” This is as if he said: “I show you reverence because you dost excel me in the fullness of grace.” The Blessed Virgin is said to be full of grace in three ways. First, as regards her soul she was full of grace. The grace of God is given for two chief purposes, namely, to do good and to avoid evil. The Blessed Virgin, then, received grace in the most perfect degree, because she had avoided every sin more than any other Saint after Christ. Thus it is said: “You are fair, My beloved, and there is not a spot in you” [Sg 4:7]. St. Augustine says: “If we could bring together all the Saints and ask them if they were entirely without sin, all of them, with the exception of the Blessed Virgin, would say with one voice: ‘If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves and the truth is not in us.’[1 Jn 1:8]. I except, however, this holy Virgin of whom, because of the honor of God, I wish to omit all mention of sin” [De natura et gratia 36]. For we know that to her was granted grace to overcome every kind of sin by Him whom she merited to conceive and bring forth, and He certainly was wholly without sin. Christ excelled the Blessed Virgin in this, that He was conceived and born without original sin, while the Blessed Virgin was conceived in original sin, but was not born in it. [as in Summa, but otherwise in I Sent., c. 44, q. 1, ad. 3]. She exercised the works of all the virtues, whereas the Saints are conspicuous for the exercise of certain special virtues. Thus, one excelled in humility, another in chastity, another in mercy, to the extent that they are the special exemplars of these virtues—as, for example, St. Nicholas is an exemplar of the virtue of mercy. The Blessed Virgin is the exemplar of all the virtues. In her is the fullness of the virtue of humility: “Behold the handmaid of the Lord” [Lk 1:38]. And again: “He has looked on the humility of his handmaid” [Lk 1:48]. So she is also exemplar of the virtue of chastity: “Because I know not man” [Lk 1:34]. And thus it is with all the virtues, as is evident. Mary was full of grace not only in the performance of all good, but also in the avoidance of all evil. Again, the Blessed Virgin was full of grace in the overflowing effect of this grace upon her flesh or body. For while it is a great thing in the Saints that the abundance of grace sanctified their souls, yet, moreover, the soul of the holy Virgin was so filled with grace that from her soul grace poured into her flesh from which was conceived the Son of God. Hugh of St. Victor says of this: “Because the love of the Holy Spirit so inflamed her soul, He worked a wonder in her flesh, in that from it was born God made Man.” “And therefore also the Holy which shall be born of you shall be called the Son of God” [Lk 1:35]. The plenitude of grace in Mary was such that its effects overflow upon all men. It is a great thing in a Saint when he has grace to bring about the salvation of many, but it is exceedingly wonderful when grace is of such abundance as to be sufficient for the salvation of all men in the world, and this is true of Christ and of the Blessed Virgin. Thus, “a thousand bucklers,” that is, remedies against dangers, “hang therefrom” [Sg 4:4]. Likewise, in every work of virtue one can have her as one’s helper. Of her it was spoken: “In me is all grace of the way and of the truth, in me is all hope of life and of virtue” [Sir 24:25]. Therefore, Mary is full of grace, exceeding the Angels in this fullness and very fittingly is she called “Mary” which means “in herself enlightened”: “The Lord will fill your soul with brightness” [Is 48:11]. And she will illumine others throughout the world for which reason she is compared to the sun and to the moon. “The Lord is with you” The Blessed Virgin excels the Angels in her closeness to God. The Angel Gabriel indicated this when he said: “The Lord is with you”—as if to say: “I reverence you because you art nearer to God than I, because the Lord is with you.” By the Lord; he means the Father with the Son and the Holy Spirit, who in like manner are not with any Angel or any other spirit: “The Holy which shall be born of you shall be called the Son of God” [Lk 1:35]. God the Son was in her womb: “Rejoice and praise, O you habitation of Sion; for great is He that is in the midst of you, the Holy One of Israel” [Is 12:6]. The Lord is not with the Angel in the same manner as with the Blessed Virgin; for with her He is as a Son, and with the Angel He is the Lord. The Lord, the Holy Ghost, is in her as in a temple, so that it is said: “The temple of the Lord, the sanctuary of the Holy Spirit,” [Benedictus antiphon from the Little Office of Blessed Virgin], because she conceived by the Holy Ghost. “The Holy Ghost shall come upon you” [Lk 1:35]. The Blessed Virgin is closer to God than is an Angel, because with her are the Lord the Father, the Lord the Son, and the Lord the Holy Ghost—in a word, the Holy Trinity. Indeed of her we sing: “Noble resting place of the Triune God.” “The Lord is with you” are the most praiseladen words that the Angel could have uttered; and, hence, he so profoundly reverenced the Blessed Virgin because she is the Mother of the Lord and Our Lady. Accordingly she is very well named “Mary,” which in the Syrian tongue means “Lady.” “Blessed art you among women” The Blessed Virgin exceeds the Angels in purity. She is not only pure, but she obtains purity for others. She is purity itself, wholly lacking in every guilt of sin, for she never incurred either mortal or venial sin. So, too, she was free from the penalties of sin. Sinful man, on the contrary, incurs a threefold curse on account of sin. The first fell upon woman who conceives in corruption, bears her child with difficulty, and brings it forth in pain. The Blessed Virgin was wholly free from this, since she conceived without corruption, bore her Child in comfort, and brought Him forth in joy: “It shall bud forth and blossom, and shall rejoice with joy and praise” [Is 35:2]. The second penalty was inflicted upon man in that he shall earn his bread by the sweat of his brow. The Blessed Virgin was also immune from this because, as the Apostle says, virgins are free from the cares of this world and are occupied wholly with the things of the Lord [1 Cor 7:34]. The third curse is common both to man and woman in that both shall one day return to dust. The Blessed Virgin was spared this penalty, for her body was raised up into heaven, and so we believe that after her death she was revived and transported into heaven: “Arise, O Lord, into your resting place, You and the ark which You hast sanctified” [Ps 131:8]. Because the Blessed Virgin was immune from these punishments, she is “blessed among women.” Moreover, she alone escaped the curse of sin, brought forth the Source of blessing, and opened the gate of heaven. It is surely fitting that her name is “Mary,” which is akin to the Star of the Sea (“Maria--maris stella”), for just as sailors are directed to port by the star of the sea, so also Christians are by Mary guided to glory. “Blessed is the fruit of your womb” The sinner often seeks for something which he does not find; but to the just man it is given to find what he seeks: “The substance of the sinner is kept for the just” [Prov 13:22]. Thus, Eve sought the fruit of the tree (of good and evil), but she did not find in it that which she sought. Everything Eve desired, however, was given to the Blessed Virgin. Eve sought that which the devil falsely promised her, namely, that she and Adam would be as gods, knowing good and evil. “You shall be,” says this liar, “as gods” [Gen 3:5]. But he lied, because “he is a liar and the father of lies” [Jn 8:44]. Eve was not made like God after having eaten of the fruit, but rather she was unlike God in that by her sin she withdrew from God and was driven out of paradise. The Blessed Virgin, however, and all Christians found in the Fruit of her womb Him whereby we are all united to God and are made like to Him: “When He shall appear, we shall be like to Him, because we shall see Him as He is” [1 Jn 3:2]. Eve looked for pleasure in the fruit of the tree because it was good to eat. But she did not find this pleasure in it, and, on the contrary, she at once discovered she was naked and was stricken with sorrow. In the Fruit of the Blessed Virgin we find sweetness and salvation: “He who eats My flesh... has eternal life” [Jn 6:55]. The fruit which Eve desired was beautiful to look upon, but that Fruit of the Blessed Virgin is far more beautiful, for the Angels desire to look upon Him: “You are beautiful above the sons of men” [Ps 44:3]. He is the splendor of the glory of the Father. Eve, therefore, looked in vain for that which she sought in the fruit of the tree, just as the sinner is disappointed in his sins. We must seek in the Fruit of the womb of the Virgin Mary whatsoever we desire. This is He who is the Fruit blessed by God, who has filled Him with every grace, which in turn is poured out upon us who adore Him: “Blessed be God and the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with spiritual blessings in Christ” [Eph 1:3]. He, too, is revered by the Angels: “Benediction and glory and wisdom and thanksgiving, honor and power and strength, to our God” [Rev 7:12]. And He is glorified by men: “Every tongue should confess that the Lord Jesus Christ is in the glory of God the Father” [Phil 2:11]. The Blessed Virgin is indeed blessed, but far more blessed is the Fruit of her womb: “Blessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord” [Ps 117:26].
