Grace Prompts a Catholic Conversion

From Divine Intimacy: "However slight may be our concern for our reputation, if we wish to make progress in spiritual matters, we must put this attachment right behind us; for if questions of honour prevail, we will never make great progress or come to enjoy the real fruit of prayer: intimacy with God" (DI.117, "True Glory." 1).

Pray the St. Michael the Archangel Prayer Daily:
"St. Michael the Archangel, defend us in this day of battle. Be our safeguard against the wickedness and snares of the Devil; may God rebuke him, we humbly pray, and do thou, O Prince of the Heavenly Host, cast into hell Satan and all the evil spirits who prowl throughout the world seeking the ruin of souls. Amen."

Honour Worship

Choose joy! That&#39;s some sound advice. But how do we not only choose joy, or a positive attitude more generally, but go on to protect that choice throughout the day?

Edmund Mitchell joins The BeatiDudes for the bonus episode. Edmund’s career includes a unique blend of creative work, a wide array of ministry experience, and a passion for the Catechism of the Catholic Church. Edmund is the co-founder of Real + True, an extensive platform that explains the Catechism using a creative approach to each of the document’s four-part framework – the Creed, sacraments, morality, and prayer. The work of Real + True makes the teachings of the church accessible and enjoyable. The show starts by reviewing the imprimatur (aka the Oprah Mater) that was granted to Real + True by the Dicastery for Evangelization. Edmund reflects on the pressure he feels as he undergoes the creative process for each new segment. Jeff tells more stories of times he made “big timing” statements to the people in his life, and this time he tells the story of asking his wife on their first date. During “Blessed are the Joke Makers,” the Dudes answer the question, “I will be canonized for ______” as a self-righteous vegan.Edmund leaves us with nuggets of personal wisdom about books he likes and another that he finds to be overrated. <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://divinecomedyimprov.com/">Divine Comedy</a><a href="https://www.undivided.life/">Undivided Life</a><h2>Follow Edmund and his work:</h2><a href="https://realtrue.org/">Real + True</a><a href="https://bummerlazarus.co/">Bummer + Lazarus</a><a href="http://edmundmitchell.com/">Edmund Mitchell</a><a href="https://www.osv.com/">OSV </a>- Producers of Real + True<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>

Living Life Liturgically | Evan Woolsoncroft | Episode #124

When all things are said and done, the goal of leadership ought to be simple.  Thomas Aquinas provides us with a wonderful summary in chapter sixteen of his work, On The King, he gives us a final goal - three things.  By focusing on these three things we can find the direction we need as we apply leadership to our home, our business, and our world.

Five Questions That Will Expose Your Spiritual Life

<h3>Episode Overview</h3>David and Adam share humorous anecdotes from their chaotic home lives—mice-catching kids, runaway cows, and pig feeder mishaps—before diving into a deep discussion on spiritual growth. Drawing from Father Frederick Faber’s Growth in Holiness, they explore five practical signs of progress in the spiritual life, offering insights for men seeking to deepen their relationship with God. The episode balances lighthearted banter with profound reflections on humility, perseverance, and living intentionally for Christ.<h3>Key Discussion Points</h3>Life Updates:<ul><li>Adam recounts his son Leo’s antics, including catching mice and feeding them into traps, and opening a gate, letting a cow escape during relentless Oklahoma rain. He also shares the challenges of a kitchen remodel, leading to household disorder and a mouse infestation.</li><li>David discusses his pigs knocking over their feeder, eating through plywood, and his frustration-driven rebuild with metal siding, highlighting the manual labor woes of farm life.</li><li>Spiritual Focus: The hosts explore Father Frederick Faber’s Growth in Holiness (published by Cor Iesu Press), focusing on Chapter 1’s five signs of progress in the spiritual life. Faber, a 19th-century Oratorian and convert, offers timeless clarity on Catholic spirituality.</li><li>Contradictions in the Spiritual Life: Faber notes the spiritual life is full of contradictions due to our fallen nature, particularly the tension between knowing ourselves deeply while thinking of ourselves humbly. David challenges the modern adage that humility is “thinking about yourself less,” arguing that true humility requires rightly ordered self-reflection.</li></ul> What Not to Do:<ul><li>Don’t Ask Your Spiritual Director for Progress Reports: Faber advises against seeking your spiritual director’s judgment on your progress, as it places unfair pressure on them and risks oversimplifying complex spiritual states.</li><li>Avoid Arbitrary Benchmarks: Setting personal, artificial markers of progress can lead to disquietude, distracting from genuine growth and forfeiting graces.</li></ul> Five Signs of Spiritual Progress:<ol><li>Discontent with Your Present State: A desire to be holier, coupled with humility and gratitude for past graces, indicates progress. This discontent must avoid sloth (acedia) or unease with devotional practices.</li><li>Constant Fresh Starts: Persevering through repeated failures by recommitting to holiness (e.g., overcoming a persistent sin like pornography) is a sign of growth, reflecting perseverance.</li><li>Specific Goals in View: Actively pursuing a particular virtue, overcoming a specific fault, or adopting a penance shows intentionality, akin to a business plan for spiritual growth.</li><li>Feeling God’s Particular Call: An “attraction” to a specific fault to correct or pious work to undertake, guided by the Holy Spirit, signals progress. Not all experience this, but it’s significant when present.</li><li>General Desire for Perfection: A broad desire to be more perfect, if acted upon through prayer, penance, or zealous acts, is valuable but must be channeled into action to avoid spiritual stagnation.</li></ol> Practical Reflections:<ul><li>Adam shares his practice of writing down elements of a “good day” (waking early, praying, reading, working hard, family dinner, early bedtime) to replicate satisfying days, aligning with Faber’s call for specific goals.</li><li>David reflects on overcoming obsessive thoughts by offering gratitude to God, transforming burdens into opportunities for grace, illustrating the power of fresh starts.</li></ul> Hot Takes:<ul><li>Faber’s claim that “we must not be without fear even of forgiven sin” sparks debate. David questions fearing forgiven sins, suggesting it doubts God’s mercy, while Adam interprets it as acknowledging lingering attachments or temporal consequences requiring atonement.</li><li>Faber’s assertion that exact knowledge of our growth in grace is harmful is clarified as a caution against prideful self-assessment, emphasizing trust in God’s measurement over our own.</li></ul> <h3>Featured Beverage</h3><ul><li>Duchess de Bourgogne (Regular and Cherry): A Flemish red ale from Brouwerij Verhaeghe in West Flanders, Belgium. The regular version offers a refreshing, slightly tart complexity, while the cherry variant is overly tart and less balanced. Priced at $25 for a four-pack, it’s a rare find but best sampled if you enjoy sour beers.</li></ul> <h3>Spiritual Takeaway</h3>The spiritual life is not about mountaintop experiences or avoiding sin alone but pursuing a deeper relationship with Christ through intentional, humble efforts. Faber’s five signs encourage men to embrace discontent as a spur to holiness, persevere through fresh starts, set specific goals, respond to God’s unique call, and act on desires for perfection. By avoiding prideful self-measurement and trusting in God’s grace, we can grow in love and freedom.<h3>Call to Action</h3><ul><li>Join the Pilgrimage: Sign up for <a href="https://selectinternationaltours.com/catholicmanshow/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">The Catholic Man Show</a>’s pilgrimage to Italy, visiting Rome, Assisi, and the incorrupt bodies of Carlo Acutis, Saint Clare, and Saint Francis.

Five Signs of Progress in the Spiritual Life

Many Christians today feel intimidated.  The culture around us is shifting and ideas and notions foreign to the Bible are gaining a cultural foothold.  Many today feel a sense of loss or hopelessness in front of the situations.  But is today’s situation for a Christian that much different than the one that was confronted by the Apostles?  Was the world of St. Paul that much different from today’s world?  Where did St. Paul gain his strength?  What allowed him to lead?  In this new series we explore his soul and the source of his leadership in Christ.

Tucker: Biden is in serious trouble tonight

What is love? The word &ldquo;love&rdquo; takes on a multitude of meanings in our culture, and,as a result, is a very misunderstood word. Love is most often associated withfeelings. But what is the kind of love we were created for as persons made in God&rsquo;simage andlikeness? What is &ldquo;God&rsquo;s brand&rdquo; of love? Dr. David Hajduk explores thedefinition of love as &ldquo;willing the good of another&rdquo; and &ldquo;giving the sincere gift ofself.&rdquo; We discover that love is a choice to sacrifice ourselves for what is truly good.This is the love that makes life make sense.

In this episode, Dr. Phil Chavez explains that being a Beloved Son of the Father means to move steadily in Christ. Life is not about going to heaven and having needs met along the way. 

The journey of a Son is to be formed in God’s Image. A true Son takes interest in what gives God glory. One brings change in the world by reforming oneself to become the Salt of the earth and the Light of the world. Learn more ideas on how to manifest Christ in a difficult world.

The DARK TRUTH About Feminism! (Carrie Gress) | Ep. 506

Like the vast majority of practicing Catholics, I have had a number of frustrations over the years with our Holy Father, Pope Francis. His ambiguity is frequently misrepresented and misinterpreted by secular media outlets with little to no effort from the Vatican or the Pope himself to actually clarify what he meant to say. The many occasions of such events have certainly inflicted damage both upon the lay faithful and the world's understanding of Church teaching.&nbsp;
In episode 85, I criticized Pope Francis' move to restrict the traditional Latin Mass in Amoris Laetitia. We were highly disappointed with this move to punish some of the most faithful and devout communities in the Church.&nbsp;
I recently read a book titled, <a href="https://www.amazon.com/What-Went-Wrong-Vatican-Explained/dp/0918477794">What went wrong with Vatican II</a>. The book was published some 24 years ago, but the points made by author Ralph McInerny were relevant to a number of issues I've had recently with what seemed to me to be excessive criticisms of the Pope. I have also recently been very moved by some personal conversations, prayer time, other podcasts, etc. that have changed the way I view the current papacy (to an extent) and many other issues in the Church today.&nbsp;
Today's episode takes you on a journey of my own developing understanding of the current Church climate. The vast majority, some 99%, is purely my opinion, so please keep that in mind.&nbsp;
I recently heard a guest on Jordan Peterson's podcast say, "your content should anger about 20% of your readers/listeners, but the goal is to not make it the same 20% every time". I hope and pray that whoever listens to this will do so with an open mind and a softened heart, with the willingness to embrace and even consider other points of view that might just help us restore unity in the Church.
