Many men want to do better as husbands and fathers but feel lost on where to begin. In this episode, John welcomes back author and founder of the Fathers of St. Joseph, Devin Schadt, to talk about his new book The Rule, a practical guide for living the spirituality of St. Joseph in everyday life.

Devin shares how the book was born out of his own discouragement and how men repeatedly asked for clear, concrete direction on becoming the men God created them to be. He and John discuss the pillars of St. Joseph’s life, the importance of sonship, vocation, and spiritual authority, and why true growth happens when men embrace small daily practices with humility and perseverance.

If you have ever felt overwhelmed by your responsibilities or unsure how to take the next step in your spiritual life, this conversation offers simple, actionable wisdom grounded in the heart of St. Joseph.

Wisdom from the Road Sean 2

I recently had a friend of mine gracefully challenge me about a story I posted on Instagram which read "You cannot be Catholic and Pro-Choice". What I really meant was that you cannot be Catholic and pro-abortion, but I think that was sufficiently clear.&nbsp;
We often hear the more tolerant side of Christianity voice opinions that some of us are too judgmental and harsh on those who disagree with us on certain social and political issues. What many fail to realize is that at their core these issues are not simply about politics and society, but more importantly they are rooted in morality.&nbsp;
And morality matters. Our understanding of morality and our willingness to live in accordance with it ultimately determine the eternal destiny of our soul.&nbsp;
So are we too harsh on pro-abortion Christians? Can you really be Catholic and pro-choice? I share my answers to these questions in today's episode.&nbsp;
 
*Note*: This episode was recorded before Archbishop Cordileone made his statement regarding Nancy Pelosi receiving Holy Communion. I support that decision and some of the content from today's episode is relevant to that, but does not explicitly discuss it since I did not know about it at the time.

185: A Fireside Chat With Fr. Gregory Pine

The BeatiDudes proudly welcome Jonathan J. Sanford, Ph.D., the 10th president of the University of Dallas. Dr. Sanford, who previously served as provost and dean of UD’s Constantin College of Liberal Arts and holds a doctorate in philosophy, is a noted scholar in virtue ethics. Dr. Sanford has published widely on philosophical figures and topics, especially in foundational questions in moral philosophy, as evidenced in “Before Virtue: Assessing Contemporary Virtue Ethics” (The Catholic University of America Press 2015). As provost, Dr. Sanford oversaw the development of a university-wide strategic plan, and as president, he is focused on leading its implementation by building on the university’s reputation for academic rigor, its commitment to classical Western tradition, and its faithful Catholic identity.During this episode, Dr. Sanford provides deep insight into the approach to formation and education philosophies of the University of Dallas. He calls upon several key teachings, including St. Pope John Paul II’s “Ex Corde Ecclesiae” and St. John Henry Cardinal Newman’s “The Idea of a University.” Then on “Blessed are the Joke Makers,” the Dudes square off to finish the statement, “Lord, I need [blank]” as a drill sergeant. The second half of the show explores Dr. Sanford’s education and career journey. We learn more about the mentors, saints, and materials that formed Dr. Sanford’s love for philosophy and teaching. Dr. Sanford penned several books along the way and then received a call to join the University of Dallas and grew to quickly love the University in a special way. This episode’s TBD Question (The BeatiDudes Question) asks which educator(s) left a big impression on your life. And finally, the Dudes finish with a fun Reverse Simpsons called “Just Ask JJ” during which Dr. Sanford has to answer three questions and attempt to get the same answer that his wife gave before the show. Will he get them all? Or perhaps none? Watch and see. <h2>Books by Jonathan J.

Eating the Sunrise (Christopher West) | Ep. 457

Joel Stepanek is the Chief Operating Officer for the National Eucharistic Congress and an avid fan of great music. After stumbling across the band Black-Eyed Peas in 2001, Joel created a website about the group and their upbeat, positive style of hip-hop music. His work was noticed early on by the band, and they soon reached out to Joel to offer him news, updates, and backstage passes for his fan site. As high school progressed, Joel stopped updating the site just a bit before the Black-Eyed Peas became a worldwide phenomenon.However, the lessons of Joel’s connection to the band did not end with the website. Instead, Joel realized that his love for music and its ability to transform the people who hear it paled in comparison to the similar impact that ministry could have on the world and that is why he dropped his other career pursuits to focus on the sharing the greatest thing of all, the Gospel. Joel is also an author with several books under his belt, covering many topics, including humility, authentic masculinity, and discernment. He explains that discernment is the ability to listen and respond to the interior movements of the Holy Spirit in our heart, and it requires a spiritual “affective”ness and an emotional “affective”ness. Joel’s closing message to men to close out the show concludes with three questions to ask each day:<ul>
<li>What are you creating?</li>
<li>What are you cultivating?</li>
<li>What are you protecting?</li>

EP 98 Q&A With Fr. Larry Richards - The Reason For Our Hope Foundation

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 Messiah, bluntly rebuke and the men of His hometown Nazareth and miraculously thwart their angry attempts to kill Him by throwing Him off a cliff. We’ll reflect upon need for every Catholic man to seek the Grace of Christ to grow in the Virtue of Faith so a man always remains faithful and loyal to Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.  We’ll also consider the importance for every Catholic man to build the Virtue of Piety so he can seek to imitate the heroic virtue of St. Joseph and seek his intercession in a man’s daily struggles.

Ep 45 - That Catholic Married Life with A "Real Modern Catholic"

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 celebrate Our Blessed Lady, Mary the Mother of God, as we hear about Our Lady’s memories of her son, Jesus, the Son of God, on that first Christmas and how the Church has venerated Mary the Mother of God over the last 2000 years. We’ll reflect upon need for every Catholic man to ask the Holy Spirit to give him the Gift of Understanding so he can more fully grasp the blessing of Mary the Mother of God. We’ll also reflect upon the need for every Catholic man to ask Our Lady to help him grow in the Virtue of Piety so he can more fully rely on her never-failing intercession.

EP 143 Q&A With Fr. Larry Richards - The Reason For Our Hope Foundation

We cannot be united with God unless we freely choose to love him But we cannot love God if we sin gravely against him, against our neighbor or against ourselves: "He who does not love remains in death. Deacon Harold shows how that leads to Hell as well as looks into Soulful Psalm 129.

The Four Last Things - Hell

In this episode, we explore the inspiring life of Saint Agatha, one of the Church’s most venerated virgin-martyrs. Known for her unwavering faith, heroic virtue, and miraculous intercession, Saint Agatha’s story is a challenge for men today to stand firm in truth, defend purity, and embrace suffering with faith.Key Takeaways:✅ The extraordinary courage of Saint Agatha—how she stood against a corrupt ruler and refused to compromise her faith, even in the face of brutal torture. ✅ The deeper meaning of suffering and sacrifice—how Agatha’s endurance teaches us to embrace trials with faith and perseverance. ✅ Why Saint Agatha’s witness still matters today—and how her life calls men to rise up, defend purity, and stand unwavering in truth.Notable Quotes:🛡️ &quot;I belong to Jesus Christ; He is my hope and salvation.&quot; – Saint Agatha 🛡️ &quot;The martyrs teach us that faithfulness to Christ and His Church must take precedence over everything else, even over life itself.&quot; – Pope Benedict XVI 🛡️ &quot;Lord, my Creator, You have protected me from my infancy. You have taken me from the love of the world and given me patience to suffer. Receive now my soul.&quot; – Saint Agatha’s prayer in the midst of sufferingLessons for Catholic Men:🔥 Be Courageous in Faith: Saint Agatha stood firm against pressure, persecution, and even physical torture. As men, we must ask ourselves: Are we willing to stand firm in our faith, even when it costs us? 🔥 Purity Is Worth Defending: In a culture that distorts and devalues the human body, Agatha’s witness reminds us that we are temples of the Holy Spirit. Men must reject impurity and strive for holiness. 🔥 God Strengthens the Faithful: Agatha’s sufferings were great, yet God did not abandon her. He sent Saint Peter to heal her wounds in prison. This is a reminder that God always provides grace to those who trust in Him.Saint Agatha’s Patronages:Saint Agatha is the patroness of purity, victims of violence, rape survivors, breast cancer patients, wet nurses, and Sicily. She is a powerful intercessor for those facing persecution and those suffering from physical or spiritual wounds.3 Challenges for Men Today:1️⃣ Commit to Purity: Whether single or married, strive to guard your heart and body as a temple of the Holy Spirit.

Sanctifying Saints - The Courage of Saint Agatha – A True Warrior for Christ

What comes to mind when you think of company “culture”? Pizza parties, birthday wishes and off-site team building events maybe? Obviously, there is more to it than that. Especially if you are a Christian running a business, in which case your values and actions should come across in how you work. Sadly, it is far more common today to read about a company’s “values” only to realize most people only pay lip service to these values in practice. And what does that mean for the company’s culture?&...

CSR 329 Matthew Plese

One of the things I love about the Bible is how events in the Old Testament foreshadow and point toward events in the New Testament. Deacon Harold examines some of them for Word of God Wednesday and looking at Soulful Psalm Psalm 78:17-29

Bread from Heaven

Good Friday & Holy Saturday

What does it take to stand firm in your faith when everyone around you bends? In this soul-stirring address, Father Deacon Andrew Bennett explores the heroic witness of St. John Henry Newman&mdash;a man who chose truth over popularity, conviction over comfort. Through vivid storytelling and powerful exhortation, we see how Newman&rsquo;s unflinching courage still calls us today to live counterculturally. Learn why compromise is the enemy of clarity, and how Newman&rsquo;s spiritual legacy speaks directly to Catholic men striving to live authentic, public faith in an age of confusion. If you&rsquo;ve ever felt pressure to water down your beliefs, this is the call to rise.

“Many persons come to God as Christians but not as leaders. Perhaps they travel by an easier road and are less hindered since they bear a lighter burden.

What are the things you do as a family that keep you rooted in your faith or walk with God. Deacon Harold shares ideas on practical tips to help you and pass on to your kids. Also, we look at Soulful Psalms with Psalm 19b.

Practical Tips for Families

We all emulate other people. One of the most influential ways we learn behaviors, language, ways of thinking, etc. is by witnessing and copying the actions of others. Knowing that this makes a huge impact on our development and character, we need to be intentional about choosing who we look up to and who we imitate.&nbsp;
Bobby and Nathan discuss their own journeys of finding role models, both good and bad, and how that impacted them becoming the men they are today. They talk about ways to find good heroes, how we can be better role models for others, and the importance of recognizing the goodness in others.

Men, Holy Week is upon us, and the finish line is in sight. Whether Lent has been a triumph or a struggle, now is your chance to lock in. Easter’s close, but we’re not there yet.   St. Joseph lived hidden, guarding the God-man in silence while the world ignored him. His humility shone in poverty and trials, his faith unshaken by darkness. He’s our model now. Here’s your challenge: Simplify your life today. Too many prayers? Too much noise? Pick one thing—silence, Scripture, a single act of charity—and do it well, humbly, like Joseph. Maybe you’ve stumbled this Lent; doesn’t matter. It’s how you finish that counts. Lean into his example to make this Holy Week your strongest yet.  Men, Satan trembles at Joseph’s quiet strength. Want to honor God and enter Easter’s mystery? Simplify and focus. Products/References Mentioned:  <ul><li>Consecration to St. Joseph by Father Donald Calloway</li></ul>Powerful Quotes:  <ol><li>“Joseph sought God in simplicity. Joseph found God in detachment. Joseph enjoyed God’s company in obscurity.”  </li><li>“He guards a God-man and breathes not a word of it. He is the witness of so great a mystery and he tastes it in secret without divulging it abroad.”  </li><li>“Not how you start, it’s how you finish. Right, gentlemen? How can we simplify our lives? How can we finish strong?”</li></ol>Key Takeaway: Simplify today—choose one humble act, like sitting in silence, and do it with focus. Start now to mirror St. Joseph and end Lent strong.<a target="_blank" href="https://www.buzzsprout.com/twilio/text_messages/1766613/open_sms">Send us a text</a> <a rel="payment" href="https://buymeacoffee.com/tmc">Support the show</a>Please prayerfully consider supporting the podcast on our <a href='https://buymeacoffee.com/tmc'>Buy Me A Coffee </a>page. to help grow the show to reach as many men as possible!

What does it mean to be Christian? Well, it means that we believe that God is real, we believe that there are expectations of us to do good and be good, and we believe that each individual has free will. We also believe that we are meant to serve and love others even at our own expense.So how does capitalism figure into it? And above all, how can we possibly reconcile capitalism with our beliefs as Christians?On today's episode, we welcome back our friend Braden Ritchie to discuss what is tru...

From a young age, many of us are taught to make our own way—to build a name, succeed, impress, and be approved by others. We begin to crave praise. The applause of friends, the compliments at work, the admiration on social media. It feels good, and we chase it. But that hunger for worldly affirmation subtly drives us to do only the things the world rewards, and to avoid anything that might get us rejected.But the world’s values don’t lead to Heaven. In fact, Jesus warns that following Him will divide people—even within families—and may cost you comfort, reputation, or relationships: “Do not think that I have come to bring peace… I have not come to bring peace, but a sword” (Mt 10:34, RSVCE). For two thousand years, saints and martyrs have been scorned by the world, yet honored in Heaven. When you aim to please the crowd, you risk ignoring the will of God. When you live to be holy, you often displease the world—but you please the King.Jesus won’t ask how many awards you earned, followers you had, or promotions you secured. He will ask if you served Him with faithfulness and love. The only approval that matters forever is His. So today, work to hear these words from the Savior: “Well done, good and faithful servant… enter into the joy of your master” (Mt 25:23, RSVCE).ChallengeToday, resist the temptation to seek the world’s praise. Choose one action—whether at work, in your family, or in your parish—that will likely go unnoticed by others but will please Christ. Offer it to Him alone, and seek only His approval.Pray: Lord Jesus Christ, my God and my King, grant me the Virtue of Magnanimity so that I may constantly strive to do the great work You have equipped me to do. Free me from chasing the applause of the world, and make me hunger only for Your approval. May I live each day so that I may hear You say, “Well done, good and faithful servant… enter into the joy of your master.” Amen.

ECM Five Minute Maxims for Men - Strive Today to Hea r- ‘Well Done, Good and Faithful Servant"

The four levels of happiness are interconnected and there is a natural progression moving up the four levels. However, one of the four levels is going to be most dominant in your life. The choice you make reveals which level of happiness is your priority. As you repeatedly resolve conflicts of desire in favor of one particular level, that kind of happiness becomes your meaning in life. You start living for it and the other levels fade into the background.
The desires of Level 2 motivate us to pursue many good things. It is very good to achieve a lot with our lives—to further our education, to have status, security, self-esteem, and the power to get things done. But people who get caught up in the "comparison game" can find themselves trapped. Moving on to Levels 3 and 4 becomes necessary if they are to avoid unhappiness.
