1 Corinthians 12 describes the spiritual gifts, including the gift of healing. Andrew Laubacher, aka A-LOB, realized early in his journey that God was using his prayers over others to bring about physical, emotional, and spiritual healing to build up the Kingdom. In this special episode of The BeatiDudes, A-LOB shares healing stories that bring the miraculous into our current reality. A-LOB sums it up perfectly by stating, “People don’t need to be in ministry to be ministers.” The show concludes with a powerful prayer for the healing of Jeff’s three-year-old son, Benedict Pro, who was recently diagnosed with brain cancer. ALOB is now the Executive Director for Humanality, a nonprofit that aims to reclaim the adventure of human connection by helping people get off their phones and into reality.

Miracles, Prayers, and the Gift of Healing | Andrew Laubacher aka A-LOB | Episode #118

Christians have long professed that we are at the same time like everyone else and different.  We’re the same because we are human just like anyone else but we’re different because we have received the grace of Christ.  Well if this is true then our leadership will also be the same and different.  Our leadership will have to follow the same laws as everyone else and the same structure but we should also be leading with the grace of Christ.  I wanted to find out what this meant and share a short course with you.  A series of talks on this subject to help you appreciate the Christian advantage.

DGT Episode 269 - Christians Lead From Behind Christ - The Christian Leader's Advantage Part 1

For this bonus episode, I’m honored to speak to Sr. Miriam James Heidland of The Society of Our Lady of the Most Holy Trinity. Sr. Miriam has the distinction of being our first female guest in the pew! She is a noted Catholic speaker, author, and co-host of the podcast "Abiding Together." Sr. Miriam is going to talk to us about what really makes us reach for bad habits and how only the love of Christ can provide sufficient healing.

We’ll learn that:
- Uncovering the root of why we choose bad habits forces us to be honest with ourselves
- Understanding that Jesus didn’t come to fix us but to bring us into communion with Him is a terrifying but ultimately satisfying revelation
- Allowing Jesus to love us when we are most vulnerable is the key to transformation

I’m so excited for you to hear everything that Sr. Miriam has to say!

There are many ways to define the secrets of success but Christians have their own definition.  St. Paul lays it out clearly for us in his second letter to Timothy, chapter 4, where he speaks about the crown that is laid up for him in the Lord.  Through all of his life and his many ups and downs, St. Paul witnesses that Jesus is faithful and has carried him through all his adversities.  His words of hope help inspire us in our own journeys as leaders.

Sean 1 Wisdom from the Road

For many Christians today, obedience is one of the hardest things to master.  Afterall, what exactly is its value?  Why should we try and inculcate a spirit of obedience?  How do we keep from being obedient and servile at the same time?  Christ speaks in John 6 of how He came to do the will of the Father and how this will of the Father is a good thing.  Let’s listen to His word.

Today, John Heinen and Devin Schadt discuss the richness of Christmas traditions and how they improve everyone's lives. Find out why Christmas is celebrated on December 25th, the meaning of the term Xmas, and why we have multiple feast days we are told to enjoy within Christmastide.

“How Do I Get the Canon?” — A Calvinist’s Question That Changed Everything

We also discuss:
 - The state of faith in most Catholic churchgoers today.
 - Being a follower of Jesus vs. being a believer in Jesus.
 - How Christ truly wants us to seek Him out

Faith & Belief

'The Heroic Minute' with Deacon Harold Burke-Sivers is your briefing for Sunday Mass. Each episode gives you a sharp, no-nonsense breakdown of the upcoming Scripture readings—so when you step into church, you’re locked in, ready to engage, and primed to get more out of the Word of God. A soldier doesn’t wait until the battlefield to read his orders. A man of God doesn’t wait until the Gospel is proclaimed to understand its call. Get ahead. Get prepared. Be ready to receive what God has for you.

Sunday Prep with Deacon Harold Burke-Sivers

When we released Predatory in 2024, it drew a lot of criticism. Why would we include an episode where it didn't end well? The short answer is because it unfortunately proves the rule more than the exception. Many cases do not end well. Sin is intoxicating and hard to give up. For Dylan, he wanted the benefits of God without the relationship, and that wasn't going to work for Father Martins. In this revisit of the case file, Father Martins breaks down a very complex case and the bizarre psychological elements. How could a demon manipulate people into lust? Why would God permit that? Why did the demon remain dormant for so long before finally unleashing its attack on Dylan? Father Martins breaks down what dynamics are at play. Trigger Warning: This case file may be triggering to some listeners given the theme of sexual assault that is discussed. Listener discretion is advised.

Happy Easter to You and Your Family

This is the Every Catholic Man Gospel Devotional, where a man can draw closer to Jesus Christ, learn the Catholic faith and grow in happiness by becoming a better Catholic Son and Catholic Father. Today we hear Jesus, the Son of God, with divine insight as to how God desires for men to pray, gives men the perfect prayer, the Our Father including His mysterious reference to the super-essential daily bread of the Eucharist. We’ll reflect upon need for every Catholic man to grow in the Virtues of Observance and Prayer by praying the Our Father every day. We’ll also consider the importance of how the Our Father can help a man grow in the Virtue of Duty so he can live up to his responsibility to the the spiritual leader of his family.

What I Wish I Knew When I Converted | Ft. Dr. Scott Hahn | Last Call Ep. 3

One of the hardest parts about leading is making choices.  It seems that if you choose one thing, you can’t have another.  And the perspective of missing out on something can make us afraid.  How can we be sure that what we chose is really the best way?  Would life be easier if we didn’t have to make those decisions at all?  I find it fascinating that God forces us to make decisions.  It’s almost like God isn’t afraid of making us choose.  How can we as leaders make the best decisions?  What’s the secret to choosing well?

DGT Episode 204 - Leaders Make Choices - AUDEO Part 2

Jesus miraculously saves the Apostles from drowning by calming a deathly storm on the Sea of Galilee. Every Catholic man can grow in happiness by building the Virtue of Fortitude by seeking strength from Jesus Christ in the Spiritual Battle and by seeking the Fruits of Peace and Joy from the Holy Spirit so he can be comforted by the Spirit when Satan attacks Christ’s Holy Catholic Church.

Episode 190 - Jesus miraculously saves the Apostles from drowning by calming a deathly storm on the Sea of Galilee - Sunday June 23, 2024 - Mk 4:35-41

This is the Every Catholic Man Gospel DevotionalWhere a man can draw closer to Jesus Christ, learn the Catholic faith and grow in happiness by becoming a better Catholic Son and Catholic Father Today we give thanks to God for the Holy Family and hear about the evil threats against the Baby Jesus and how St. Joseph protected and provided for the Blessed Virgin Mary and Jesus. We’ll reflect upon God’s call for every Catholic man to be the heads of their own family by growing in the Virtue of Obedience. We’ll also consider the importance for every Catholic man to grow in the Virtue of Duty so he can better imitate the heroic sacrificial headship of St. Joseph.

St. Joseph Leads the Holy Family to the Temple - Feast of the Holy Family - December 28, 2025 - Mt 2:13-15, 19-23

Every leader has a call. Every call has a story.  St. Peter was called by Christ to dare great things, but he was called to dare great things because he was loved by Christ and knew it.  Discovering Christ’s love for you gives courage and incentive to strike out and follow him on the paths where he leads.

DGT Episode 39 - The Leader's Call In St. Peter - St. Peter Part 2

Some do it more from a personal charisma than from a studied approach, but all leaders have to bring people with them towards the vision that they’re casting.  And so that begs the question: “How can we who have to make decisions everyday make them in a way that other people will find attractive?”  Well, reaching back into our Catholic theology we find this subject matter already treated by St. Thomas Aquinas.  And in this fourth part of our series we explore it today.

DGT Episode 255 - Leading As If Seeing The Invisible - Leadership Lessons From Aquinas Part 4

It’s Last Call! Matt Fradd is taking voicemails and sitting down with Sr. Mary Rachel Capets to discuss how to hear God’s voice and know what you’re meant to do with your life.

Do THIS to Hear God's Will For Your Life  | Ft. Sr. Mary Rachel Capets | Last Call Ep. 6

We all have to work but not all of know why in the world we should!  A lot of young people today prefer to stay in the basements of their parent’s homes rather than get a job.  A lot of parents prefer to wait until their child is out of college before getting their first job.  What does the church have to say about this?  What about God’s wisdom?  Let’s take a look and go deeper!
