Darth Vader With a Lisp

With over 70% of Americans practicing new age and occultist practices, we are in need of a better understanding of why this is happening and how the Church is the only institution that can bring deliverance from this disaster. In this episode, we speak with Charles Fraune, who has just completed the most extensive dive into the occult, interviewing former Satanists, witches, and new-agers to unearth why almost 3 out of 4 Americans (including our Catholic brothers and sisters) are actively falling for demonic lies in the new age.🔴 ► "The Rise of the Occult: What Exorcists and Former Occultists Want You to Know" by Charles Fraune - Get The Book Here: https://bit.ly/TheRiseoftheOccultSubscribe to the Catholic Gentleman - https://catholicgentleman.com🔴 Join the Catholic Gentleman - https://catholicgentlemanplus.comCatholic Gentleman+ is now Live!

Today Sam and John are joined by a military veteran, teacher, and woodworker, Paul Hyatt, who explains the richness of his life and how he lives each day with significance.

The Importance of Choosing to Live with Intention and Purpose

In today's episode, hosts John Heinen and Sam Guzman discuss how the summer often presents difficulties for men pursuing holiness. When your summer is filled with travel, late night conversations, and children staying up late or not active in school work, it can be an occasion to loosen your own disciplines and perseverance in holiness. We discuss ways to avoid this from happening, as well as insights as to what unique opportunities summer can provide us. Finally, we turn to Archbishop Fulton Sheen to remind us of three laws necessary to achieve true happiness. 🔴 Catholic Gentleman+ - https://catholicgentlemanplus.com 🔴Enthronement of the Sacred Heart of Jesus - https://welcomehisheart.com Learn more about your ad choices.

Your Questions on Masculinity and Catholicism Answered

124: Do we really have guardian angels?

From Seattle Mariners catcher Cal Raleigh (“The Big Dumper”) to Cracker Barrel pancakes to mother-son saints, Father Dave and Deacon Bob serve up another classic mix of sports, pop culture, and faith. This week’s wide-ranging conversation moves from baseball nicknames and Ryder Cup golf to the Solemn Blessing of Christ the King Chapel and Franciscan University’s theme for the year: keeping Jesus at the center. 
Along the way, they debate Cracker Barrel’s new logo, celebrate St. Monica and St. Augustine, and swap stories from recent travels to Corpus Christi and Superior. And since the podcast is nearing its final episodes, they invite listeners to share both favorite nicknames and treasured podcast memories as this chapter draws to a close.

Repentance

Regardless of our positions and responsibilities communication is always a challenge.  How did the saints communicate when they needed to?  In today’s episode on Leadership Lessons From The Saints, I look at St. Patrick.  Not only did he manage to communicate foreign ideas to his audience, but he did so in a way that was persuasive.  He managed to do something with his communication that all of us leaders need to do.  He communicated facts in a way that moved and promoted action.  So, his leadership lesson from 1600 years ago remains true today.

56: What are the 4 causes of Aristotle? How do they apply to your 5 ways?

In this episode, we hear from Catholic convert, priest, author and blogger Fr. Dwight Longenecker. We hear about his journey from an Evangelical Protestant to Anglican priest to the Catholic Church and Catholic priesthood. We learn about Fr. Longenecker's love for literature and for writing, and in particular his books commenting on our current secular age riddled with atheism and materialism. We also hear about how St. John Paul II understood the false ideas that underlie our current cultural crisis and how he sought to correct them.-- About Fr. Dwight Longenecker "I was brought up in an Evangelical home in Pennsylvania. After graduating from the fundamentalist Bob Jones University with a degree in Speech and English, I went to study theology at Oxford University. Eventually I was  ordained as an Anglican priest and served as a curate, a school chaplain in Cambridge and a country parson on the Isle of Wight.""Realizing that the Anglican Church and I were on divergent paths, in 1995 I and my family were received into the Catholic Church. For ten years we continued to live in England where I worked as a freelance writer and charity worker.

Marriage, Today's Culture, and Catholic Living (Jackie Francois Angel) | Ep. 368

Lucia dos Santos was maybe the greatest 20th century prophetess. A model woman of great spiritual insight and mission.

LUCIA PROPHETESS

In this episode, John and Victor dive deep into a topic that affects us all—worry and anxiety. We all have those moments when life feels overwhelming, but what can we do about it? John shares a powerful personal story about how worry was stealing his joy, even during a simple fishing trip. We'll explore what the saints and scriptures have to say about overcoming these feelings and how trusting in God can make all the difference.

But that's not all—this episode is packed with inspiration! You'll hear a touching story of a young man who found hope and healing through our men's group, a reminder of the incredible impact community can have. Plus, we're talking about the busyness of ministry life, the importance of prayer, and the ways we can all support each other on this journey of faith.

Whether you're new to the show or a longtime listener, there's something here for everyone. Don't forget to like, comment, and consider becoming a Partner in the Pew to help us continue this vital work.

📚 Bible verses for reflection:

Philippians 4:6-7
1 Peter 5:7
Psalm 55:22
Matthew 6:25-34
Psalm 94:19
Psalm 56:3
Isaiah 41:10
Proverbs 12:25

The Waste of Worry

The first and more manifest way is the argument from motion. It is certain, and evident to our senses, that in the world some things are in motion. Now whatever is in motion is put in motion by another, for nothing can be in motion except it is in potentiality to that towards which it is in motion; whereas a thing moves inasmuch as it is in act. For motion is nothing else than the reduction of something from potentiality to actuality. But nothing can be reduced from potentiality to actuality, except by something in a state of actuality. Thus that which is actually hot, as fire, makes wood, which is potentially hot, to be actually hot, and thereby moves and changes it. Now it is not possible that the same thing should be at once in actuality and potentiality in the same respect, but only in different respects. For what is actually hot cannot simultaneously be potentially hot; but it is simultaneously potentially cold. It is therefore impossible that in the same respect and in the same way a thing should be both mover and moved, i.e. that it should move itself. Therefore, whatever is in motion must be put in motion by another. If that by which it is put in motion be itself put in motion, then this also must needs be put in motion by another, and that by another again. But this cannot go on to infinity, because then there would be no first mover, and, consequently, no other mover; seeing that subsequent movers move only inasmuch as they are put in motion by the first mover; as the staff moves only because it is put in motion by the hand. Therefore it is necessary to arrive at a first mover, put in motion by no other; and this everyone understands to be God. ST 1. Q2.

Leadership Development from an Army Ranger and Fighter Pilot

The journey continues as John and Victor dive deeper into the 7 Deadly Sins. This week's focus is Lust, the "disordered desire for or inordinate enjoyment of sexual pleasure" (Catechism of the Catholic Church [CCC], paragraph 2351). According to Archbishop Fulton Sheen, the key word is inordinate. God Himself associated pleasure with the flesh. Pleasure becomes sinful when we use it as a means instead of an end. Lust distorts the gift of sexuality and causes us to gaze only upon ourselves and our desires. What is the remedy? "The only real escape from the demands of the flesh is to find something more than the flesh to love" (Archbishop Fulton Sheen).  

Scripture passages to pray with:
-Matthew 5:28
-1 Thessalonians 4:3-5
-Romans 8:6 
-Psalm 51:10-12

In this episode: 
-Lust is selfish or perverted love 
-Acknowledging the gift of our sexuality 
-Chastity,"the successful integration of sexuality within the person" (CCC 2337), is the virtue that combats lust
-There is hope! Call on Jesus and His Mother, turn your gaze from yourself to the ones you love, & view temptation as an opportunity to choose the good

What is Ministry to Men?

Jamie Baxter is the Founder of Exodus 90, the #1 Freedom App to help you become the man you were created to be. By focusing on prayer, asceticism, and fraternity, Exodus helps men grow closer to God, replace distractions with peace, and embrace true brotherhood.Exodus exists for men to be uncommonly free. Throughout this episode, we learn about the practices and charisms of Exodus and the inspiration Jamie drew from his father’s devotion to God’s word and to living a life of joy. Jamie shares the heartbreaking story of the loss of his son, who was stillborn during the 20th week of his wife’s pregnancy. Throughout the pain and loss, Jamie and his wife grew closer to one another and Christ. Jamie credits his son, Jamie III, for bringing greater clarity and focus to his daily walk.

SPIRITUAL SLUGGISHNESS: The Evils of Laziness and Anger | Mthr Natalia

All of us need models for leadership.  Amongst the many candidates the Virgin Mary certainly merits our special attention.  Even though she held no office, did not run a company, and did not have a rank in the military, the mother of Jesus is believed by Christians to be the Queen of Heaven and Earth.  But what makes her leadership so special?  In this twelfth of a thirteen part series on the Virgin Mary, I look at her Assumption body and soul into heaven as an indicator as to what is greatest in her leadership:  the fact that it was totally focused on love.

Introduction To The Saints

Here is the text from Aquinas we read today: "And in Jesus Christ, His only Son, our Lord." It is not only necessary for Christians to believe in one God who is the Creator of heaven and earth and of all things; but also they must believe that God is the Father and that Christ is the true Son of God. This, as St. Peter says, is not mere fable, but is certain and proved by the word of God on the Mount of Transfiguration. "For we have not by following artificial fables made known to you the power and presence of our Lord Jesus Christ; but we were eyewitnesses of His greatness. For He received from God the Father honor and glory, this voice coming down to Him from the excellent glory: 'This is My beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased. Listen to Him.' And this voice, we heard brought from heaven, when we were with Him in the holy mount" [2 Pet 1:16]. Christ Jesus Himself in many places called God His Father, and Himself the Son of God. Both the Apostles and the Fathers placed in the articles of faith that Christ is the Son of God by saying: "And (I believe) in Jesus Christ, His (i.e., God's) only Son". Errors There were, however, certain heretics who erred in this belief. Photinus, for instance, believed that Christ is not the Son of God but a good man who, by a good life and by doing the will of God, merited to be called the son of God by adoption; and so Christ who lived a good life and did the will of God merited to be called the son of God. Moreover, this error would not have Christ living before the Blessed Virgin, but would have Him begin to exist only at His conception. Accordingly, there are here two errors: the first, that Christ is not the true Son of God according to His nature; and the second, that Christ in His entire being began to exist in time. Our faith, however, holds that He is the Son of God in His nature, and that he is from all eternity. Now, we have definite authority against these errors in the Holy Scriptures, Against the first error it is said that Christ is not only the Son, but also the only-begotten Son of the Father: "The only begotten Son who is in the bosom of the Father, He has declared Him:" [Jn 1:18]. And again the second error it is said: "Before Abraham was made, I AM" [Jn 8:58]. It is evident that Abraham lived before the Blessed Virgin. And what the Fathers added to the other [Nicene] Creed, namely, "the only-begotten Son of God," is against the first error; and "born of the Father before all ages" is against the second error. Sabellius said that Christ indeed was before the Blessed Virgin, but he held that the Father Himself became incarnate and, therefore, the Father and the Son is the same Person. This is an error because it takes away the Trinity of Persons in God, and against it is this authority: "I am not alone, but I and the Father who sent Me" [Jn 8:16]. It is clear that one cannot be sent from himself. Sabellius errs therefore, and in the [Nicene] Creed of the Fathers it is said: "God of God; Light of Light," that is, we are to believe in God the Son from God the Father, and the Son who is Light from the Father who is Light. Arius, although he would say that Christ was before the Blessed Virgin and that the Person of the Father is other than the Person of the Son, nevertheless made a three-fold attribution to Christ: (1) that the Son of God was a creature; (2) that He is not from eternity, but was formed the noblest of all creatures in time by God; (3) that God the Son is not of one nature with God the Father, and therefore that He was not true God. But this too is erroneous and contrary to the teaching of the Holy Scriptures. It is written: "I and the Father are one" [Jn 10:30]. That is, in nature; and therefore, just as the Father always existed, so also the Son; and just as the Father is true God, so also is the Son. That Christ is a creature, as said by Arius, is contradicted in the "Symbol" by the Fathers: "True God of true God;" and the assertion that Christ is not from eternity but in time is also contrary to the [Nicene] Creed: "Begotten not made;" and finally, that Christ is not of the same substance as the Father is denied by the [Nicene] Creed: "Consubstantial with the Father." The truth It is, therefore, clear we must believe that Christ is the Only-begotten of God, and the true Son of God, who always was with the Father, and that there is one Person of the Son and another of the Father who have the same divine nature. All this we believe now through faith, but we shall know it with a perfect vision in the life eternal. Hence, we shall now speak somewhat of this for our own edification. It must be known that different things have different modes of generation. The generation of God is different from that of other things. Hence, we cannot arrive at a notion of divine generation except through the generation of that created thing which more closely approaches to a likeness to God. We have seen that nothing approaches in likeness to God more than the human soul. The manner of generation in the soul is effected in the thinking process in the soul of man, which is called a conceiving of the intellect. This conception takes its rise in the soul as from a father, and its effect is called the word of the intellect or of man. In brief, the soul by its act of thinking begets the word. So also the Son of God is the Word of God, not like a word that is uttered exteriorly (for this is transitory), but as a word is interiorly conceived; and this Word of God is of the one nature as God and equal to God. The testimony of St. John concerning the Word of God destroys these three heresies, viz., that of Photinus in the words: "In the beginning was the Word;" that of Sabellius in saying: "And the Word was with God;" and that of Arius when it says: "And the Word was God" [Jn 1:1]. But a word in us is not the same as the Word in God. In us the word is an accident; whereas in God the Word is the same as God, since there is nothing in God that is not of the essence of God. No one would say God has not a Word, because such would make God wholly without knowledge; and therefore, as God always existed, so also did His Word ever exist. Just as a sculptor works from a form which he has previously thought out, which is his word; so also God makes all things by His Word, as it were through His art: "All things were made by Him" [Jn 1:3]. Now, if the Word of God is the Son of God and all the words of God bear a certain likeness of this Word, then we ought to hear the Word of God gladly; for such is a sign that we love God. We ought also believe the word of God whereby the Word of God dwells in us, who is Christ: "That Christ may dwell by faith in your hearts" [Eph 3:17]. "And you have not His word abiding in you" [Jn 5:38]. But we ought not only to believe that the Word of God dwells in us, but also we should meditate often upon this; for otherwise we will not be benefitted to the extent that such meditation is a great help against sin: your words have I hidden in my heart, that I may not sin against You" [Ps 108:11]. Again it is said of the just man: "On His law he shall meditate day and night" [Ps 1:2]. And it is said of the Blessed Virgin that she "kept all these words, pondering them in her heart" [Lk 2:19]. Then also, one should communicate the word of God to others by advising, preaching and inflaming their hearts: "Let no evil speech proceed from your mouth; but that which is good, to the edification of faith" [Eph 4:29]. Likewise, "let the word of Christ dwell in you abundantly in all wisdom, teaching and admonishing one another" [Col 3:16]. So also: "Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, entreat, rebuke in all patience and doctrine" [2 Tim 4:2]. Finally, we ought to put the word of God into practice: "Be doers of the word and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves" [James 1:22]. The Blessed Virgin observed these five points when she gave birth to the Word of God. First, she heard what was said to her: "The Holy Spirit shall come upon you" [Lk 1:35]. Then she gave her consent through faith: "Behold the handmaid of the Lord" [Lk 1:38]. And she also received and carried the Word in her womb. Then she brought forth the Word of God and, finally, she nourished and cared for Him. And so the Church sings: "Only a Virgin nourished Him who is King of the Angels" [Fourth Responsory, Office of the Circumcision, Dominican Breviary.].

183:  Jesus Christ: Lord, Liar, Lunatic, or Legend? (Apostles Creed #3)

Leaders don’t get to be in the positions they have by doing nothing.  Instead they are men and women of action.  But does this mean they have to leave their people behind?  Is there a way to unite both action and productivity?  In the Catholic imagination the two are linked.  In the 13th century a Dominican friar named St. Thomas Aquinas gave valuable insight into this very question by comparing human leadership with God’s governing of the world.

Forging Fatherhood

Every leader has to face trials.  Every leader has to face suffering.  Even St. Peter in his leadership in Acts of The Apostles goes through very hard times. What are the secrets that his leadership shows us about how to cope with the sufferings involved?

In today’s episode of A Reason For Hope Podcast, Dr. David Hajduk sits down with&nbsp;Dr. Deborah Savage, Catholic theologian, philosophical anthropologist, and founder/director of the&nbsp;Institute for the Study of Man and Woman&nbsp;at&nbsp;Franciscan University of Steubenville. This conversation tackles some of the most urgent questions facing the Church and culture today:<ul><li>What does it mean to be a man?</li><li>What does it mean to be a woman?</li><li>And how do we recover clarity about the human person in an age of confusion about sex, gender, identity, and the body?</li></ul> Dr. Savage shares her remarkable journey—from the corporate world and manufacturing leadership to Thomistic philosophy, Catholic theology, and decades of research into the&nbsp;complementarity of men and women. Along the way, she explains why&nbsp;Thomistic realism&nbsp;is essential for reclaiming truth about the human person—and why the Church’s teaching remains uniquely grounded in reality. We also dive deep into:<ul><li>John Paul II’s anthropology&nbsp;and why it’s a powerful evangelical tool today</li><li>Genesis 1 and Genesis 2&nbsp;and what they reveal about masculinity and femininity</li><li>The meaning of the&nbsp;masculine genius&nbsp;and the&nbsp;feminine genius</li><li>Why we can’t understand men without women—or women without men</li><li>The modern&nbsp;crisis of men, and how our culture has misunderstood masculinity</li><li>Why Dr. Savage’s Institute includes both&nbsp;theology and philosophy&nbsp;and&nbsp;the&nbsp;hard sciences + social sciences</li><li>The importance of fathers and mothers in forming children through the “law of gratuity” and the “law of exchange”</li><li>Why healing the family and rebuilding civilization requires a return to God’s design</li></ul> This is a hopeful, challenging, and deeply timely episode for&nbsp;Catholic parents, students, educators, young adults, and anyone seeking clarity&nbsp;in a confusing cultural moment. -Support our Sponsors-<a href="https://bit.ly/4qeIqHF" target="_blank">Franciscan University of Steubenville</a> - Live the Truth -Support Our Mission-<a href="https://arrayofhope.org/donate" target="_blank" style="background-color: transparent; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">Donate Here</a><a href="https://arrayofhope.org/events/" target="_blank" style="background-color: transparent; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">Book an Event</a> -Follow Us On Social Media-Facebook:&nbsp;<a href="https://facebook.com/r4hpodcast" target="_blank" style="background-color: transparent; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">https://facebook.com/r4hpodcast</a>Instagram:&nbsp;<a href="https://instagram.com/r4hpodcast" target="_blank" style="background-color: transparent; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">https://instagram.com/r4hpodcast</a>YouTube:&nbsp;<a href="https://youtube.com/@R4HPodcast" target="_blank" style="background-color: transparent; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">https://youtube.com/@R4HPodcast</a>TikTok:<a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@r4hpodcast" target="_blank" style="background-color: transparent; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">&nbsp;https://www.tiktok.com/@r4hpodcast</a> -Follow Franciscan-Instagram -&nbsp;<a href="https://www.instagram.com/franciscanuniversity" target="_blank">https://www.instagram.com/franciscanuniversity</a>Facebook -&nbsp;<a href="https://www.facebook.com/FranciscanUniversity/" target="_blank">https://www.facebook.com/FranciscanUniversity/</a>X -&nbsp;<a href="https://x.com/FranciscanU" target="_blank">https://x.com/FranciscanU</a>YouTube -&nbsp;<a href="https://www.youtube.com/@franciscanu" target="_blank">https://www.youtube.com/@franciscanu</a> ⏰Timecode⏰00:00 Introduction01:22 Start of Interview04:11 Dr. Deborah Savage's Journey to Theology08:15 What is Thomistic Realism?11:48 Saint John Paul II's Anthropology18:13 Inspiration to Study the Masculine and Feminine Genius27:12 Insights from Genesis on Gender Roles38:44 Understanding the Fall and Its Impact on Relationships42:09 The Crisis of Masculinity in Modern Society43:30 The Role of the Birth Control Pill in Gender Dynamics49:37 How do we affirm authentic masculinity55:59 Integrating Science with Theology in Understanding Gender04:45 The Mission and Future of the Institute for Man and Woman09:36 Goodbyes

Producing Cabrini and Other Faith-Driven Films | Leo Severino | R4H In this episode, we welcome Leo Severino - producer of the well-known films Bella and Sound of Freedom - to discuss his new film Cabrini about the life and work of Mother Frances Cabrini: nun, Italian emigrant, and first American saint. We discuss how Leo came to dedicate his professional life to making faith-driven films of high quality as positive alternatives to much of what is comes out of Hollywood. We also delve into his approach to film-making as a way to bring the beauty of the Catholic faith to a universal audience in a way that attracts them. Cabrini - Film SynopsisFrom Alejandro Monteverde, award-winning director of Sound of Freedom, comes the powerful epic of Francesca Cabrini, an Italian immigrant who arrives in New York City in 1889 and is greeted by disease, crime, and impoverished children. Cabrini sets off on a daring mission to convince the hostile mayor to secure housing and healthcare for society's most vulnerable. With broken English and poor health, Cabrini builds an empire of hope unlike anything the world had ever seen.

Every entrepreneur knows that having a good idea is only the beginning of the process.  To be successful you need to take that idea to market.  This involves production which involves people, organization, and year of hard effort.  At times the loneliness of the innovator can be so intense that we want to stop innovating altogether.  And yet innovation, novelty, beginning new things is part and parcel of the call to evangelize.  How does Christian grace sanctify the innovator’s solitude.

Have you ever thought about how every interaction in the workplace, in school, at home, at church (literally anywhere and everywhere) is an opportunity to be a witness to your faith? Our faith is not something separate or detached from our professional lives, from our academic pursuits, or from our friendships. It must be the very FOUNDATION of those things. This is what we're talking about today with our dear friend Angelo. Angelo works with technology startups, teaches business and ent...

Spreading the Gospel at Work with Angelo Nwigwe

Every day billions of human beings wake up and take on life. We make thousands of decisions that ultimately reveal what we value, what we believe, and what we prioritize. These decisions are best guided by a code of ethics, a philosophy, or a rule of life.&nbsp;
But most people don't ever take the time to truly consider what it means to live life well. We just haphazardly go about our every day life without much direction or purpose.&nbsp;
Seeking Excellence exists to change that. I want you to be on fire for life. I want you to find the reason why you are here. And I want you to experience all that life has to offer when you give it your best.&nbsp;
I'm two years and 190 episodes into podcasting, but I felt it was time to revisit the fundamentals of what a lifestyle of Seeking Excellence really looks like. In this episode and for the next 7 Mondays, we will take a deeper look at what excellence looks like in all the major areas of our lives.&nbsp;
I hope you're ready for a great year!&nbsp;

Ep 190 | What's the best way to live?

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.

We all know what a STRUGGLE it can be to even find a good man or woman to date, let alone to find one's spouse. Jack and Josie have a wonderful story of how they met, fell in love, and made the most courageous commitment to one another through the Sacrament of Marriage. 
We hope today's episode will fill you with hope, give you some laughs, and help you to see the ways God works in our lives to lead us to where He wants us to be!

Ep 145 | Finding An Excellent Spouse w/ Jack and Josie Delac

On the first day of the calendar year, the Church celebrates The Solemnity of Mary, the Holy Mother of God. This day honors the Blessed Virgin Mary under the aspect of her motherhood of Jesus. With her great "yes" to the Divine Will, Mary effectively reverses the negative trajectory caused by the great "no" of the world's first woman, Eve. Today's episode of the Word on Fire Show discusses how Mary, the Mother of God, represents the New Eve who ushers forth the New Adam, the Savior of the World, Jesus Christ.

What does it mean for a man to lead in a relationship? | Ep 259

Dr. Marcus Peter joins Men Answering the Heroic Call to talk about Catholic manhood, fatherhood, spiritual warfare, and why men are starving for preaching that calls them into courage instead of comfort. From his childhood in Malaysia and his years as an atheist speaker to his conversion and mission as a Catholic preacher, Dr. Peter explains why men need the full Gospel, Eucharistic adoration, and a battle cry strong enough to wake up husbands, fathers, sons, and brothers.
What You&rsquo;ll Learn ✅ Why manhood must be called out by virtuous men ✅ How performance culture feeds isolation and loneliness ✅ Why &ldquo;cotton candy faith&rdquo; fails men ✅ Why Eucharistic adoration is central to the mission

Dr. Marcus Peter on Manhood, War, and Embracing the Cross - 1/3

In this podcast, Dr. Phil Chavez explains what he means by “moving” as a Beloved Son. This goes be yond just “living” as a Son. To move as a son is to be positioned, received, and act in a mode where one is consciousness of unity with God the Father always.

A surrender remains actualized in this identity and thus which becomes a  mode of being, a perspective by which to live, a lens through which to see. Learn more ideas on how to live this way.

Ep. 1 - Welcome to The Manly Catholic!

Jesus’ cleansing of the Jerusalem Temple is an event used by some to say that Jesus supported the use of violence as a means to bring about social change. There is no denying that Jesus is angry, but what provoked this anger? Did Jesus contradict Himself? After all, he taught “that everyone who is angry with his brother shall be liable to judgment.” Deacon Harold breaks it down today and takes a look at Psalm 58.

Righteous vs. Hateful Anger

The title of this episode is inspired by one of my favourite worship songs, &quot;Find Me in the River&quot; by Delirious?
In this episode we encounter two men, King David and the Gerasene Demoniac. Both of these men embody the locale in which they find themselves: at the River Jordan. At the river, God finds them and heals them.
May this same loving God find you at your river.
Here&#39;s a link to the song: <a href="https://youtu.be/WFVmrdik5i8?si=xXd-np28FB8KVzXR" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">https://youtu.be/WFVmrdik5i8?si=xXd-np28FB8KVzXR</a>

Find Me in the River

In a recent talk, Bishop Barron presented on the importance of not dumbing down the faith as we engage in religious education. Young people enjoy asking about and discussing the big questions, from God's existence, to how to be a good and moral person, to the problem of suffering. A disconnect takes place when we meet these intellectual questions with watered-down catechesis. Instead, we must remember the central teachings of Christianity. We must present the fullness of truth, the reality of the Incarnation, and the good news of grace.

WOF 313: Not Dumbing Down the Faith

Why do so many young people drift away from God and the Church, and how can we help them return? This is a pressing question for all Catholics, but especially for parents who are brokenhearted about their own sons or daughters who have become unaffiliated. In today's episode, Bishop Barron and Brandon Vogt discuss Brandon's new book, just published by Word on Fire, titled <a href= "https://wordonfire.org/return">Return: How to Draw Your Child Back to the Church</a>, which provides a game plan for parents hoping to see their loved ones come back to the faith. A listener asks, what is the promise that God gives us if we keep His commandments? Eternal life, or something else? And what, exactly, is eternal life?

Bruce Lee was a Master Evangelist with Jared Zimmerer - Word on Fire

He attended Benedictine College Preparatory, where he distinguished himself as a three-sport athlete. He went on to play Division I soccer at Mount St. Mary's and Longwood University. He later coached at Benedictine for ten years, transforming the soccer program into one of the top-ranked teams in Virginia. He achieved similar success by elevating the St. Gertrude's soccer program to statewide prominence. In the fall of 2025, he accepted his current position as a teacher and head soccer coach at DeMatha Catholic High School in Maryland.
