Protestantism, Contingency, and D&D (Cameron Bertuzzi) | Ep. 194

Objection 1. It would seem that the saints in heaven do not pray for us. A man's action is more meritorious for himself than for others. But the saints in heaven do not merit for themselves, neither do they pray for themselves, since they are already established in the term. Neither therefore do they pray for us. Objection 2. Further, the saints conform their will to God perfectly, so that they will only what God wills. Now what God wills is always fulfilled. Therefore it would be useless for the saints to pray for us. Objection 3. Further, just as the saints in heaven are above, so are those in Purgatory, for they can no longer sin. Now those in Purgatory do not pray for us, on the contrary we pray for them. Therefore neither do the saints in heaven pray for us. Objection 4. Further, if the saints in heaven pray for us, the prayers of the higher saints would be more efficacious; and so we ought not to implore the help of the lower saints' prayers but only of those of the higher saints. Objection 5. Further, the soul of Peter is not Peter. If therefore the souls of the saints pray for us, so long as they are separated from their bodies, we ought not to call upon Saint Peter, but on his soul, to pray for us: yet the Church does the contrary. The saints therefore do not pray for us, at least before the resurrection. On the contrary, It is written (2 Maccabees 15:14): "This is . . . he that prayeth much for the people, and for all the holy city, Jeremias the prophet of God." I answer that, As Jerome says (Cont. Vigilant. 6), the error of Vigilantius consisted in saying that "while we live, we can pray one for another; but that after we are dead, none of our prayers for others can be heard, seeing that not even the martyrs' prayers are granted when they pray for their blood to be avenged." But this is absolutely false, because, since prayers offered for others proceed from charity, as stated above (Articles 7 and 8), the greater the charity of the saints in heaven, the more they pray for wayfarers, since the latter can be helped by prayers: and the more closely they are united to God, the more are their prayers efficacious: for the Divine order is such that lower beings receive an overflow of the excellence of the higher, even as the air receives the brightness of the sun. Wherefore it is said of Christ (Hebrews 7:25): "Going to God by His own power . . . to make intercession for us" [Vulgate: 'He is able to save for ever them that come to God by Him, always living to make intercession for us.']. Hence Jerome says (Cont. Vigilant. 6): "If the apostles and martyrs while yet in the body and having to be solicitous for themselves, can pray for others, how much more now that they have the crown of victory and triumph." Reply to Objection 1. The saints in heaven, since they are blessed, have no lack of bliss, save that of the body's glory, and for this they pray. But they pray for us who lack the ultimate perfection of bliss: and their prayers are efficacious in impetrating through their previous merits and through God's acceptance. Reply to Objection 2. The saints impetrate what ever God wishes to take place through their prayers: and they pray for that which they deem will be granted through their prayers according to God's will. Reply to Objection 3. Those who are in Purgatory though they are above us on account of their impeccability, yet they are below us as to the pains which they suffer: and in this respect they are not in a condition to pray, but rather in a condition that requires us to pray for them. Reply to Objection 4. It is God's will that inferior beings should be helped by all those that are above them, wherefore we ought to pray not only to the higher but also to the lower saints; else we should have to implore the mercy of God alone. Nevertheless it happens sometime that prayers addressed to a saint of lower degree are more efficacious, either because he is implored with greater devotion, or because God wishes to make known his sanctity. Reply to Objection 5. It is because the saints while living merited to pray for us, that we invoke them under the names by which they were known in this life, and by which they are better known to us: and also in order to indicate our belief in the resurrection, according to the saying of Exodus 3:6, "I am the God of Abraham," etc. 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.

The Hamill Camel

Most people acknowledge that humility is a good thing – something that we should desire.  But most leaders struggle to find how humility can be incorporated into their leadership.  Afterall, don’t we need to be assertive?  Controlling?  In Charge?  It would seem that if I am a leader and I am humble that I am weak and incapable of providing the vision and the drive necessary for my people.  But this is not the case.  In the third chapter of St. Paul’s letter to Titus we see that God’s vision for humility is a powerful one.  In all the books of the bible we find God’s wisdom

Men want and need respect like women need love. This idea is explained thoroughly in the great book by Dr. Emerson Eggerichs. 

Respect, however, is earned. It is not just freely given. How you show up to things matters. In today&#39;s episode, we will talk about the need for you to take yourself more seriously if you want more respect from others.

Culture, Pro-life Movement, and Nashville (Jonathon Van Maren) | Ep. 396

Grab a seat in the pew as John and Victor discuss one of the biggest roadblocks to living an authentic christian life: Duplicity

Duplicity

As men, we fight. 
We fight for our families to be financially stable, for our children to do well in sports, and we fight to get that new car because ultimately we fight for the things that we think will make us happy. Yet, so often we are left unfulfilled or frustrated. In this episode, John and Victor cut right to the chase and discuss our common failure to choose the right battle. 

True victory and true peace come from diagnosing our interior challenges (and wounds) and picking up the fight within. 


In this episode John and Victor talk about: 
Our tendency to go, go, go. 
The reading of the "rich fool" (Matthew 16: 21-27) 
Jacques Philippe’s book: Interior Freedom
Physical healing from interior healing!

The Spiritual War with Fr. Daniel Ebert

In this episode, Dr. David Hajduk gives his take on whether you can call yourself "Catholic" and be "pro-choice." He makes clear what being "pro-choice" means and what being "Catholic" means, as well as what sort of choices, beliefs, and activities might make a person no longer in communion with the Catholic Church. - Support our Sponsor -<a href="https://bit.ly/3UaE1t2" target="_blank" style="color: blue;">Ave Maria Mutual Funds</a>&nbsp;-&nbsp;the largest family of Catholic mutual funds in the U.S. Launched in 2001, their six no-load funds adhere to strong pro-life and pro-family values. ✨See How We Can Help Your Parish/Faith Community https://arrayofhope.org/ - Connect with us! -Facebook: @arrayofhopeministriesInstagram: @arrayofhopeministriesX: @aohministriesTikTok: @arrayofhopeministriesLinkedIn: @arrayofhopeministriesYouTube: @ArrayofHopeMinistriesWebsite : https://arrayofhope.org/podcast #catholic #prolife #prochoice ⏰ Timecodes ⏰00:00 Intro01:28 Can a person be both Catholic and Pro-choice02:30 What is Abortion?03:45 The Catholic Churches opinions &amp; teachings about abortion05:28 Excommunicated from the Catholic Church06:33 How can excommunication be lifted?06:57 Abortion in Politics10:38 Ave Maria Mutual Fund Ad12:13 More on the Teachings of the Church about Abortion13:36 St. Pope John Paul II - Evangelium Vitae15:35 Rejecting the Churches Teachings about Abortion16:33 Possibility of schism on those who oppose the Churches teachings on abortion16:56 St. Pope John Paul II's Apostolic Letters17:47 Pope Benedict XVI comments on the teachings19:26 Are the excommunicated still Catholics?20:51 Final Thoughts

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

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;

Case #01 - No Life Without Death - Pt. 1

In this episode, you will hear John and Victor talk about:

- The REASON your lent is getting difficult
- Being grounded in a “yes”.
- Suffering is the key to our salvation!
- Practical tips on how to suffer well!

Why Is It Hard To Keep Our Lenten Promises?

Chapter 18 of Machiavelli’s “The Prince” is the most controversial of them all.  You could even say that it represents the heart of his thesis.  Concerning the way in which princes should keep faith it flies directly in contradiction to what most of us as Christian leaders understand as the power of leadership coming from Christ.  And so it is a fascinating study to help us understand where Christ wants us to lead and how.

The Hours (Sneak Preview)

Strength, discipline, and self-reliance are often praised as the highest virtues of manhood. But what happens when those very traits become obstacles to trust, intimacy, and faith?

In this episode, John sits down with former Navy SEAL officer Sam Blair for an honest conversation about identity, surrender, and the spiritual battle beneath high performance.

If you’ve been trying to carry everything on your own, this conversation is a reminder that real strength begins when we stop relying on ourselves and learn to trust the Father who wants all of us, not just our achievements.

Seals, Identity, and Surrender with Sam Blair

<h2>Helping grow Catholic Education!</h2>
In this week’s episode, Sean visits with the Chief Superintendant of the Calgary Catholic School District, Dr. Bryan Szumlas. Listen as they discuss life within Canada’s second largest Catholic school district, the challenges faced in bringing to life the Catholic Faith, and of being messengers of, and doing a better job of showing our Catholic faith.

A Dram with Dr. Bryan Szumlas

Flip Howard is a dynamic entrepreneur and Catholic leader who truly serves as a role model for Catholic husbands, fathers, and now grandfathers. Flip arrives in style, bringing his private-label blended whiskey to share with the BeatiDudes in an episode that begins with a recall of great pranks before moving into Flip’s entrepreneurship journey. Early in his career, Flip started a laundry servicing company on college campuses and tells an amazing story about the competitor he bought out, who years later went on to start the global brand Tom’s Shoes. Flip then talks through the arch of his successful upscale co-working company, Lucid Private Offices. In addition to serving as a professional and welcoming workspace for small businesses, Lucid Private Offices are also the home of The BeatiDudes and Undivided Life. As the Lucid Private Office tagline goes, “Work is good. Where you do it matters.”Thanks to his faith-filled upbringing that was nurtured by his mother and his ongoing formation through great institutions like Franciscan University in Steubenville, Flip has always looked for ways to grow great businesses while trusting and glorifying God throughout it all. On Blessed are the Joke Makers, the Dudes must take on the persona of a Movie Villain to address the prompt, “The 11th plague is going to be _______.” The TBD Question of the Day – Who is the speaker you always get excited to hear? The show ends with a surprise party with little Flip Howard confetti cutouts falling from the sky.

Work is GOOD and Where You Do It MATTERS | Flip Howard | Episode #131

We are enslaved by our attachments to this world. But the world REJECTED Christ. 
How could we love both Jesus and the world if they oppose each other? 
The world and Jesus just don't mesh. 

We must choose to submit ourselves FULLY to Jesus and “take nothing with us” like the true disciples we are made to be.

This Secret-Sauce-Episode includes spicy content about:

- Elijah's abandonment  
- What it means to ~actually~ follow Jesus
- The 5 checks to being a disciple in daily life

The Secret Sauce to Loving Jesus

Today, we’re zeroing in on “Joseph Most Chaste, ”a title that’s not just a pat on the back, but a battle cry for us men. Joseph never flinched during his life. He guards his heart, his eyes, and his soul, living pure for God’s plan. That’s the kind of strength we’re unpacking here.We’re diving into what chastity really means, not just dodging the bad, but forging a life of purpose, body, mind, and spirit. Joseph didn’t just abstain; he chose a love so deep it outshone every temptation. Maybe he vowed virginity alongside Mary, maybe not, the point is, he stuck to it. In a culture drowning us in locker room talk, billboards, and endless smartphone scrolls, Joseph’s a lifeline. Porn’s a click away, flirtations beckon when marriage gets tough—how do you stand firm? This episode’s got answers.Here’s your challenge: Pick one weak spot today—phone, gym eye-candy, whatever triggers you—and cut it off. Delete those apps, switch your workout time, get a dumb phone if you have to. Do it now, before the day’s out, and ask St. Joseph to back you up. He’s not some dusty statue; he’s a warrior in your corner. Push play to hear how his chastity isn’t weakness—it’s power, freedom to love right and fight for what matters. Lent’s your shot to step up—let’s make it count.Hit that button now, brothers. This one’s raw, real, and loaded with grit to get you through the muck. Let’s lean on Joseph and lock in that purity together.Products and References Mentioned:<ul><li>The Bible: References include Matthew 1:25 (Joseph “knew her not” until Jesus’ birth), Luke 2 (Joseph at Jesus’ birth), and Psalm 24 (“He who has clean hands and a pure heart”).</li><li>Consecration to St. Joseph: Book by Fr. Donald Calloway—highly recommended for this Lenten journey, grab it and dig in.</li><li>BuyMeACoffee.com/TMC: Support the podcast—link in show notes for one-time or monthly giving with perks.</li></ul>3 Powerful Quotes: <ol><li>“Chastity is not just about avoiding sin. It’s about purity of heart, purity of body, and purity of mind, living out that with purpose.”</li><li>“St. Joseph shows that chastity isn’t about what you can’t do. It’s about who and what you can become. It’s freedom to love rightly, to protect what matters, to be a man worth trusting.”</li><li>“Chastity is a fight worth winning.”</li></ol>Guard your eyes—today. If porn, social media, or that gym distraction’s pulling you, ditch it now.

Why Would ANYONE Want to be Catholic Right Now? Here's Why. (Larry Chapp) | Ep. 505

St. Thomas Aquinas is one of the greatest minds in the history of the world.  He wrote about authority and leadership in many different ways and in many places.  Today, I’d like to begin a series studying his thoughts on leadership and the impact that that can make directly on our modern-day leaders.  Join me on this exciting adventure as we begin a ten part series on the leadership lessons of Aquinas.

DGT Episode 90 The Leader And The Sailor - Leadership Lessons From Aquinas Part 1

Jesus announces that His &quot;hour&quot; has arrived and the Almighty Father&apos;s voice is heard. Every Catholic man can grow in happiness by building the Virtue of Fraternity so he can build friendships and draw men to Jesus Christ and by seeking the Fruit of Generosity from the Holy Spirit so he can persistently pray that all people will be converted to Jesus Christ and His Holy Catholic Church. Go to <a href='https://everycatholicman.com/'>EveryCatholicMan.com</a> to grow further in holiness and happiness.

Patrick Thornton, marketing vet turned Catholic entrepreneur behind Tiny Saints and Catholic.store, joins Paul Kolker, Nick Bezner, and Jeff Schiefelbein, at the famous Tiny Table for an episode that’s part improv, part inside-baseball for Catholic media, and all heart. From Chicago-to-Denver-to-Irving life moves and father-of-many/grandpa stories, to the ‘Tiny Saints Show’ (think “Catholic Bluey”) and why quality family content deserves real investment, Patrick keeps a dry wit while the Dudes serve up URL shenanigans, saint jokes, and a game of ‘Blessed Are the Joke Makers.’ The throughline: build excellent, joyful Catholic storytelling that the whole family can love, and help fund the pilot.
Call to Action
Back the Tiny Saints Show pilot and help bring joyful, excellent Catholic family animation to life. Goal: ~$175,000 for the pilot episode (as of the episode’s recording). The Kickstarter campaign runs through October 23. Visit tinysaints.com and click the banner to watch the pitch video and support.

Tiny Saints Show = Catholic Bluey | Patrick Thornton | Episode #267

From holding hands during the "Our Father" to lovey-dovey couples at Mass, there's plenty of stuff to grind a Catholic's gears. In this episode, Sam Guzman joins me as we share our biggest Catholic pet peeves. We also discuss: - The importance of sacrifice in marriage, including small acts of self-denial. - How to handle today's liturgy wars between attendees of the Latin and New Order Masses. - Why devotion to Mary and St. Joseph is so important. - And more!

We Mustache You About Those Chains| Reg Platt | Episode #160

In the ascent towards holiness and happiness, a Catholic man must build the good habits (Virtue, from the Latin, vir, meaning “manliness, moral strength, goodness, valor”) of the moral life and break the bad habits (Vice, from the Latin, vitium, meaning “defect, offense, blemish, imperfection”) which cause him to fall into sin and risk losing his salvation. The Church provides a comprehensive list of Virtues which fall into two major categories: Theological Virtues (Supernatural) and Cardinal Virtues (Human). Because it is impossible for a mere man ascend to Heaven on his own ability, God grants every Catholic man the supernatural help to grow in Virtue through the Gifts of the Holy Spirit which are freely available to every Catholic man who remains in a state of grace; even if a Catholic man falls into mortal sin and loses the Gifts of the Holy Spirit, he can repent, confess his sins in the Sacrament of Penance and return to a state of grace and regain access to the Gifts of the Holy Spirit. What a man needs to break Vice and build Virtue is to come to understand Vice and Virtue and then seek God’s help. To help men understand Virtue and Vice and take concrete action, <a href='http://everycathoicman.com/'>EveryCathoicMan.com</a> has developed the Litanies of Virtue.<a href='https://everycatholicman.com/overview-of-vice-virtue-and-the-holy-spirit/'>To learn more about Vice, Virtue and the Gifts and Fruits of the Holy Spirit, go to EveryCatholicMan.com.</a> <a href='https://everycatholicman.com/litany-of-fortitude-against-effeminacy/'>To see a written  version of the Litany of Fortitude go to EveryCatholicMan.com.</a>

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>

The OPRAH MATER Imprimatur | Edmund Mitchell Episode #016

Sooner or later, every believer runs into a collision between what we hoped God would do and what He is actually doing. In this episode, John continues his reflection on grief and adversity by diving into one of the hardest realities of faith: wrestling with God when trust clashes with fear and our need for control.

If you are in a season that feels confusing, unfair, or out of your control, this episode is an invitation to stay in relationship, pray honestly, release control, and let the struggle refine you. Wrestling with God is not the end of faith. It may be the beginning of deeper trust.

Peter's Bold Step

Fr. Dave and Dcn. Bob make World Cup predictions, argue over whether people still throw rice/birdseed at weddings, talk about finding hope in death, and discuss how Jesus is our “model of holiness.”

Why Did the Word Become Flesh? (Part 3)

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

In Jeff’s life, not unlike the King David story, sexual sin led to death. A life conceived in the womb while he was in high school was eliminated for two hundred dollars. Enter into Jeff’s pain and the scourge of abortion. Encounter the God of Mercy as Jeff recounts his process of healing and his newfound relationship with his son, Jonathan.

Episode 4: Abortion

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

In this episode, Dr. Phil Chavez addresses those aspects of what it means to be a Beloved Son when one worships. The Liturgy is a response back to God and is the crowning way we respond to all that God is. In the Mass Jesus makes His Eternal Sacrifice to His Father. 

The priest is called to offer himself to the Father as Christ did; and the layman makes the sacrifice of himself through the priest. Our act becomes perfect when we act with Christ. We are to act as Beloved Sons through Him, with Him, and in Him, so we can gain the fullest merit we can. Gain insights about what it means to perfect ourselves in uniting ourselves to Christ and His sacrifice.
