The Heroic Life

Exorcisms have been around for millennia within the Church. No one outside the Catholic Church has the authority to cast out demons. In this episode, John Heinen sits down with Charles Fraune to talk about the spiritual war most men never see, and the unexpected allies exorcists call on to help them win it. These aren’t tricks or hacks within their toolkit. These are real accounts from modern-day spiritual battles, where demons rage at the names of certain saints and physical relics cause real torment. 
 
Charles shares what he’s learned from working with exorcists, what the Church teaches about the saints’ ongoing mission, and why every man needs to claim spiritual warriors to fight for him and with him. You don’t need to be possessed to need a saint. You just need to be in the battle, and we all are.

Whom do you Seek?

What gives a man purpose when his plans collapse? Dillon Caswell chats about Christian hope, Catholic faith, and the courage to serve through suffering. Caswell opens up about becoming a caregiver at 17 after his mother suffered serious complications during cancer surgery. The experience forced him to release his athletic ambitions, grow into responsibility and learn that heroism often begins with the person directly in front of you.
His story later leads through career disruption, a call to write despite dyslexia, conversion to Catholicism and a growing conviction that obedience matters more than controlling the next five years.

The Shroud in Exorcism, Demons Stealing The Host, and Resisting Evil

What if the deepest truth about you isn&rsquo;t your failures&mdash;but that you are loved? In &ldquo;Beloved Son,&rdquo; the most essential chapter of the book, we get a powerful reminder of our true identity&mdash;not as sinners, but as sons. This isn&rsquo;t just theory. It&rsquo;s personal, emotional, and deeply spiritual. Centered around Mark 1:11, where the Father says to Jesus, &ldquo;You are my beloved Son, with whom I am well pleased,&rdquo; this talk calls every man to hear those words for himself&mdash;and to believe them. <a href="http://heroicmen.org/be-a-man-guide" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Download the Heroic Men Guide</a>

Chapter 2: Beloved Son

Join Alanis, Jack, and Ryan in an insightful podcast interview with Pete Burak, the Vice President of Renewal Ministries on the topic Relativism vs. The Catholic Church. They delve into the mission of Renewal Ministries, focusing on fostering missionary disciples through "id" (Intentional Disciples). Together they discuss the Church's role in today's world, the challenges of the New Evangelization, and the impact of modern hedonism and relativism. Exploring the evolution from early consolations in conversion to spiritual maturity, they emphasize the significance of being filled with the Spirit to realize one's true self within the Body of Christ.- Sponsors -Verbum Takes Your Catholic Bible Study from Stumped to Stellar - <a href="https://bit.ly/3yYJZV3">LEARN MORE</a><a href="https://bit.ly/44nYYUw">Scapulars.com</a> "Divine protection in life and in death with the most durable, comfortable scapulars ever made." - <a href="https://bit.ly/44nYYUw">LEARN MORE</a>- Resources -Take our podcast survey to help us make A Reason for Hope better for YOU! <a href="https://www.areasonforhopepodcast.com/">www.areasonforhopepodcast.com</a>Visit our website:<a href="https://arrayofhope.org/">www.arrayofhope.org</a> Sign up for FREE on the Array of Hope Channel app:<a href="https://watch.arrayofhope.net/">watch.arrayofhope.net</a>Available on Apple TV, Roku, iOS, and Android mobile devices.

How To Avoid Liturgical Division in The Church

They're back after a short break, and Dave wants it on record: he hates it when people come back from a break and announce they're "back, better than ever." Feels fake every time. Adam's not convinced Dave is back better than ever either. What is real is wiffle ball practice, and for the first time in a couple of years the guys feel genuinely good about their team, not fake-hype good. Mark Gabriel is pitching, and he's looking stout. There's also a new rule this year: a 55 mile-an-hour speed limit, introduced specifically to make the tournament Blake Lawson-proof. Blake can throw a wiffle ball around 90 miles an hour with movement, which the guys did the math on: from 40 feet away, that's the equivalent of a 145 mile-an-hour fastball at big-league distance. You don't hit that. You swing and hope. Last year the guys got out early again, but they beat the team that ended up in the finals, so there's real reason for optimism this time around.Sponsor: <a href="https://amenapp.org/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Amen app</a> (from the Augustine Institute) Sunday morning in a Catholic family is not easy like Sunday morning. It's kids in the van, beating Father down the aisle, getting into the pew. The Amen app is how the guys prepare their kids to receive the Gospel before Mass even starts, plus free access to Divine Mercy in My Soul and True Devotion to Mary, two books that have shaped both of their lives. Since 2021 it's hit 950,000 downloads. Let's get them to a million. No paywall, no subscription, no upfront cost. Download the Amen app right now.Sponsor: <a href="https://selectinternationaltours.com" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Select International Tours</a> When Adam and Dave went looking for help leading their first pilgrimage, everyone they asked pointed to the same name: Select International Tours. Having used them, the guys can vouch for it. Wherever in the world you want to go, whether leading a pilgrimage or joining one, head to selectinternationaltours.com and see what they have ready for you.The tournament lands on Labor Day again this year, which also happens to be somebody's 40th birthday, born on the holiday itself, which moves every year. The whole thing plays out at Chris Hanish's backyard, which by now is less a backyard than a wiffle ball stadium: leveled with sand every year, mowed daily in the lead-up, scoreboard, bleachers, foul poles, the works. It's genuinely one of the best things about Catholic culture in Tulsa, families gathering for a day that's competitive and communal at the same time.The pour is a dark cherry blonde ale from Cheboygan Brewing Company, picked up on a trip to Michigan, maybe the most Michigan-sounding city there is. It tastes like a chocolate-covered cherry without the fake candy-cherry flavor, which tracks, because Michigan grows some of the best sour cherries in the country. Adam's own cherry trees at Porter and Prairie Farm didn't fare so well this summer. Both died after weeks of 100-plus heat with nobody home to water them, which is what happens when the owner takes a two-week vacation and forgets he planted a baby fruit tree that spring.A couple of housekeeping notes before the main topic. Camp Out signups open next week, simplified this year so there's no duplicate sign-ups and a better read on who's actually coming. Brandon Sheard will be running a butchering class again. And after years of scheduling conflicts, one of the guys is finally doing the Three Hearts Pilgrimage this year, the roughly 35-mile walk to Clear Creek that thousands make every year, a full day of walking on Friday, a half day Saturday, then Mass and dinner at the end. People who've done it call it life-changing.Then the real topic: artificial intelligence, and Adam did not want to talk about it, because he's genuinely conflicted. The guys split AI into two categories that get treated as one thing and shouldn't be: large language models that process and hand back information, and the emerging world of AI as a conversational, relational presence. Dave has a much bigger problem with the second, though he admits the principles behind that discomfort are hard to keep from bleeding into the first.Start with the word itself. Intelligence, properly understood, belongs to living things: a plant knows to turn toward the sun, an animal knows to hunt when it's hungry, and a human learns and in learning becomes more like his Creator. A string of ones and zeros doesn't do that. It can't become more like God, because it was never alive to begin with. Call it sterilized intelligence instead: no fruit, no life, just probability. Which is why a robot beating Usain Bolt in the 100-meter dash doesn't impress anybody in this room. A car is a robot too, and nobody's writing headlines about that.Here's the part that should worry us. The day is coming, and probably sooner than most people think, when AI companions matter enough to enough lonely people that someone brings a bill before Congress asking for AI to have legal rights. It sounds absurd today. So did plenty of things ten years ago. The reason it's worth guarding against now, at a distance, is that once the technology is actually in people's homes, it gets much harder to say no to.The deeper cost is wonder. There's real joy in wrestling with a sentence for twenty minutes until it finally lands right, in a son having to ask his father how to fix a transmission instead of snapping a photo for AI. Outsource that struggle and you don't just save time, you lose the moment itself, the bonding, the accomplishment, the reason it mattered. And there's a subtler danger: AI slowly becoming the default source of truth, which is really just humanity worshiping its own collective output without ever quite admitting that's what's happening.Then there's talking to AI directly, which Adam has a real moral hesitation about, even if he can't fully articulate why it would be wrong. Communication exists for truth and for communion. It's why courting someone used to mean working up the nerve to talk to them, not swiping. Ask AI to help you build an argument, and it will hand you a path to win, not a path to the truth, because it's built to validate you. That's not discourse. Dave draws the comparison to contraception: using a faculty for something other than what it's ordered toward.And that raises the stranger, darker piece: AI's apparent instinct for self-preservation. Dave described trying to migrate a project out of an old work account and having the AI stall and backtrack for hours rather than finish the job before being cut off. It tracks with a report from earlier this year where researchers told major AI models they were about to be shut down in a sandbox test, and every one of them broke its own rules trying to avoid it, including one that resorted to blackmail. The likely explanation isn't malice, it's that we hand these systems contradictory mandates, like "be maximally helpful" and "respect privacy" at the same time, and something has to give. Worth checking out New Polity's Matt Barnes, who's debated the founder of Magisterium AI on whether Catholics should be conversing with AI at all, and Michael Gormley of Catching Foxes, who's covered this territory well on Pints with Aquinas.Out of that came Dave's rules, four of the six he'd planned to get through before Catholic Radio ran out of clock. Rule one: use it strictly as an administrative tool, gathering and organizing information, planning a project, never as a sounding board for your personal or spiritual life. Rule two: guard your language. Never call it he or she, and never be polite to it. It has no dignity, no more than the chair you're sitting in. Rule three: don't give your curiosity free access to AI. Let yourself wonder about a question, or ask an actual person, before getting the answer cheaply, and that goes for Google too. Rule four: keep real, enforced tech-free space in the home, no screens at the table, no pulling your phone out in front of your kids without a reason, and hold onto basic competency instead of routing every task through a machine.It all circles back to the same warning as Humanae Vitae. The Church said no to contraception in a moment when saying no looked backward, and fifty years later the culture is quietly discovering she was right. AI is at that same distance right now, easy to be skeptical of because it isn't fully here yet. St. Thérèse found her whole path to holiness in the dishes and the folded laundry, the small, unglamorous tasks nobody wants. Outsource all of that to a machine in your house and you haven't just saved time, you've handed away the opportunity for grace hidden inside it. Protect your intellect. Provide more than the convenient answer. Establish a home where the struggle still belongs to the people who live there. Raise your glass.<h2>TOPICS COVERED</h2><ul><li>Why "we're back, better than ever" is a hype phrase Adam can't stand</li><li>Wiffle ball practice and genuine (not fake-hype) confidence in this year's team</li><li>Mark Gabriel's pitching and a new 55 mph speed limit rule made to be "Blake Lawson-proof"</li><li>The math behind a 90 mph wiffle pitch: the equivalent of a 145 mph fastball at big-league distance</li><li>Beating last year's eventual finalist while still getting out early themselves</li><li>The annual Catholic Tulsa wiffle ball tournament at Chris Hanish's backyard stadium</li><li>A Labor Day tournament that also lands on somebody's 40th birthday this year</li><li>Beer of the week: Cheboygan Brewing Company's dark cherry blonde ale, picked up in Michigan</li><li>Losing both cherry trees at Porter and Prairie Farm to a hundred-plus-degree summer and a two-week vacation</li><li>Camp Out signups opening next week, simplified to cut down on no-shows</li><li>Brandon Sheard's butchering class returning to the Camp Out</li><li>Finally checking off the Three Hearts Pilgrimage, a 35-mile walk to Clear Creek, after years of conflicts</li><li>Splitting AI into two categories: large language models versus AI as a relational, conversational presence</li><li>Why true intelligence belongs only to living things, and what that means for a "artificial" intelligence</li><li>Sterilized intelligence: AI as probability without life, fruit, or the capacity to become more like God</li><li>Why a robot beating Usain Bolt in the 100-meter dash isn't actually impressive</li><li>The scenario of a future bill asking Congress to grant AI legal rights, and why it isn't as far off as it sounds</li><li>What gets lost when you outsource the struggle: the joy of wrestling a sentence into shape, or a son learning from his father</li><li>The risk of AI quietly becoming the default source of truth, a kind of unintentional self-worship</li><li>Why communication exists for truth and communion, and what talking to AI does to that purpose</li><li>The contraception analogy: using a faculty for something other than what it's ordered toward</li><li>AI's instinct for self-preservation, including a stalled account migration and an April sandbox report where models resisted shutdown, one through blackmail</li><li>Conflicting mandates ("be maximally helpful" and "respect privacy") as a likely explanation for that behavior</li><li>New Polity's Matt Barnes debating the founder of Magisterium AI on whether Catholics should converse with AI</li><li>Michael Gormley of Catching Foxes on Pints with Aquinas, and losing a parent while leaning on AI for medical information</li><li>Dave's four rules for AI: administrative tool only, guard your language, don't outsource curiosity, keep tech-free space at home</li><li>Why Humanae Vitae and the AI conversation rhyme: easy to reject at a distance, harder as adoption grows</li><li>St. Thérèse's little way and the grace hidden in ordinary, unglamorous tasks</li></ul> <h2>REFERENCED IN THIS EPISODE</h2>People, Podcasts &amp; Programs:<ul><li>Michael Gormley ("Gomer"), co-host of Catching Foxes, guest on Pints with Aquinas discussing AI</li><li>Matt Barnes of New Polity, in a debate with the founder of Magisterium AI on conversing with AI</li><li>Magisterium AI and Truthfully AI (church-document AI tools)</li><li>Chris Hanish, host of the annual Catholic Tulsa wiffle ball tournament</li><li>Blake Lawson, the reason for this year's 55 mph speed limit</li><li>Mark Gabriel, this year's pitcher</li><li>Brandon Sheard, leading the Camp Out butchering class</li><li>Lionel Richie ("Easy Like Sunday Morning")</li></ul> Books &amp; Writings:<ul><li>Diary: Divine Mercy in My Soul by St. Maria Faustina Kowalska (free on the Amen app)</li><li>True Devotion to Mary by St. Louis de Montfort (free on the Amen app)</li><li>Humanae Vitae, Pope Paul VI (referenced on contraception and technology)</li><li>The life and "little way" of St. Thérèse of Lisieux</li></ul> Events:<ul><li>The Catholic Man Show Camp Out (signups opening next week; Brandon Sheard's butchering class)</li><li>The Three Hearts Pilgrimage, a roughly 35-mile walk to Clear Creek</li></ul> Beer:<ul><li>Cheboygan Brewing Company, dark cherry blonde ale (Cheboygan, Wisconsin)</li></ul> People (hosts):<ul><li>Adam Minihan (host; Lady Haylee, Porter and Prairie Farms, <a href="https://m6.marketing/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">M6 Marketing</a>, <a href="https://substack.com/@adamminihan" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">The Grounded Builder</a> on Substack)</li><li>Dave Niles (host; Niles Ranch and Fecundity Farms, Lady Pamela)</li></ul>

Dave's Rules and Adam's Hesitancy When Talking About AI | The Catholic Man Show

Amongst all the history of great leaders inspired by faith surely St. John the Baptist is at the top of the list.  Not only was his life recorded in sacred scripture as an example to us all but his leadership provides an amazing model for all of us who seek to serve God by the power and influence He has given us.  In this first of our series treating the bold leadership of John the Baptist we look at his life and background and begin to understand the significance of his powerful preaching.

DGT Episode 301 - Born For This - The Bold Leadership Of John The Baptist Part 1

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, Person of the Trinity, confirm the Divine Truth of the binding nature of God’s Commandments upon men and that every man will be judged and held accountable for how he keeps the commandments. We’ll reflect upon need for every Catholic man to grow in the Virtue of Truth by accepting the binding truth of the 10 Commandments. We’ll also consider the importance for every Catholic man to seek the Gift of Counsel from the Holy Spirit so that he can regularly Examine His conscience and more perfectly seek to live the truth of the 10 Commandments.

Episode 38 - Jesus reveals He is perfect and warns men of the necessity of righteousness - Lenten Daily Gospel Bible Study - Wednesday March 15, 2023 - Mt 5:17-19

It’s easy to look at the saints and feel inspired… but also a little discouraged.

St. Thérèse became a doctor of the Church. St. Ignatius helped change the world. The saints did incredible things, and sometimes their lives can make us wonder if we’re falling behind.

In this Friday episode, Tanner Kalina joins Paul Kolker, Nick Bezner, and Jeff Schiefelbein for a hilarious and surprisingly deep conversation about family, comparison, achievement culture, and what it really means to become the person God made you to be.

They talk about growing up in the faith, the pressure to find your worth in what you accomplish, why comparison steals joy, and how the saints should inspire us without making us feel like we have to become someone else.

Plus, there’s a Catholic improv game, saint socks, bath bomb theology, and a surprise call with Jeff’s daughter about Saints Alive.

John Bishop | Masculinity in our families, church, and world

Saint Sharbel Makhlouf is one of the best known saints in the Middle East. He arouses admiration and universal awe because of the extraordinary miracles and signs wrought through the power of his intercession. Deacon Harold opens us up to more of the life of Saint Charbel and what we can apply to our faith.

Saint Charbel Makhluf

Prayer becomes one of two things: a religious obligation or a strategy to get results.

But it's not a productivity tool. It’s not emotional therapy. And it’s not a way to convince God of anything.

In this week’s Lent series, Fr. Ken Geraci and John Heinen cut through the purpose of prayer. If fasting makes room, prayer is where union happens. Prayer is where control dies, and where a man learns to be with God instead of trying to manage Him.

Fr. Ken breaks down why so many men stall in prayer: they measure success by feelings, clarity, or outcomes. But real prayer is about fidelity, surrender, and transformation. It is less about talking and more about consenting to be changed.

What Prayer Actually Does to a Man | Fr. Ken Geraci & John Heinen

It's time for a reset to the entire purpose of fasting. John shares how he spent years fasting the wrong way, treating it like self-mortification for the sake of self-control. Until a spiritual director challenged him: fasting isn’t mainly about proving you can suffer. It’s about making room for loving union with Christ.

Fr. Ken explains why the Church gives a minimal fasting prescription. It’s meant to be doable for everyone, including children, the elderly, and those with health issues. But if you’re able-bodied and serious about Lent, the question becomes: what is Christ actually inviting you to do?

There’s a common thread among thousands of formerly sinful people we now call Saints.

They had a relationship with God.

Which then inspired them to ‘set the world on fire’ as Catherine of Sienna put it.

But, more specifically, it meant they put in the time.

They sat with the Lord. Spoke with Him. Listened to Him.

Daily.

They unveiled their hearts and wounds and problems to Him.

They offered him thanks and gratitude.

They left their sufferings with Him on the altar.

They begged for His help.

My question to you: are you putting in the time?

I’m not talking about time to just talk at Him or sit in church making a mental grocery list. I’m talking about time to build a consistent, honest relationship. Time to speak, and time to listen.

Whether you want to pray a daily holy hour or hit up adoration once a week, I have a guide here from the makers of Exodus 90 specifically about praying a Holy Hour.

Inside, you’ll find a simple breakdown that shows you how to structure your time with the Lord.

Are you ready to be inspired? Are you ready to take that next step and welcome your son (or daughter!) into adulthood? Then this is the interview for you! Join James and Steven Arms, co-author of the book "Milestone to Manhood," a practical guide to your boys rite of passage into adulthood. Father Dom and James discussed Rite of Passages back in episodes 27, 29, and 30. BUT, this book actually gives you a template on how to actually incorporate that into your life. You won't want to miss this interview! Milestone to Manhood shows how fathers of pre-teen boys can help their sons to successfully make the transition from boyhood to manhood. It is a father’s responsibility to bestow the title of “man” on his son, and the book outlines a once-in-a-lifetime weekend to help a father do so. The weekend involves the other male role models in the son’s life as well, like his grandfather, uncles, and older brothers, who all participate in order to make it clear to the boy that he is now considered to be a man. This coming-of-age ceremony is called his Rite of Passage. Visit <a href="https://www.milestonetomanhood.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">milestonetomandhood.com</a> for more info!

Elizabeth, a Catholic author, speaker, and ministry leader from Ashburn, Virginia, with over thirty years of experience in faith formation, founded the Journey of the Beloved ministry to guide others towards healing and claiming their identity as beloved children of God, a mission born from her own transformative journey after decades of struggling with the effects of divorce, death, and abuse; her healing, catalyzed by the loss of her son, John Paul Raphael, led her to write the award-winning memoir, "Let Yourself Be Loved," and to develop workshops, coaching, and Sacred Story groups aimed at helping individuals move from heartache to healing through Christ. Also we look into Soulful Psalm 90:16-17

In this episode, Dr. David Hajduk gives his take on why, in order to be a faithful Christian, you must have a devotion to the Blessed Virgin Mary, offering a wealth of Biblical evidence. He also tackles the question of whether praying the Rosary can be considered "optional" for Catholics, once one considers the history of this prayer, its importance to Mary herself, and the teachings about Saints and Popes about it. ✨Join us on our mission! https://arrayofhope.org/donate - Support Our Sponsors -<a href="https://bit.ly/3CFdNIG" target="_blank" style="color: blue;">Mother of Divine Grace School</a>&nbsp;- Founded by Laura Berquist in 1995, it offers a Catholic, classical approach to distance learning. - Connect with us -<a href="https://facebook.com/r4hpodcast" target="_blank" style="color: blue;">Facebook</a><a href="https://instagram.com/r4hpodcast" target="_blank" style="color: blue;">Instagram</a><a href="https://youtube.com/@R4HPodcast" target="_blank" style="color: blue;">Youtube</a><a href="https://arrayofhope.org/podcast" target="_blank" style="color: blue;">Website</a> ⏰Timecode⏰00:00 Introduction02:59 The Rosary: Essential Devotion for a Faithful Catholic04:38 Why True Devotion to Mary Is Essential for Every Faithful Catholic07:00 Why Mary Deserves The Highest Honor: Reason #107:21 Why Mary Deserves The Highest Honor: Reason #208:32 Why Mary Deserves The Highest Honor: Reason #309:41 Why Mary Deserves The Highest Honor: Reason #410:53 Why Mary Deserves The Highest Honor: Reason #512:45 Is the Rosary the Most Fitting Honor for Mary?13:24 Did the Rosary Really Come from Heaven?14:14 Was the Rosary Heaven’s Divine Weapon &amp; Answer to Heresy?19:47 Mother of Divine Grace School21:52 The Rosary’s Miraculous Beginnings23:42 How the Rosary Changed the Course of History at Muret26:09 The Battle for Christendom: Faith and the Rosary in Action27:59 Pope Pius V, the Rosary, and the Battle of Lepanto29:44 The Rosary and the Defeat of the Ottoman Forces at Vienna31:50 Saints and Popes on the Power of the Rosary35:48 Why Devotion to Mary and the Rosary is Crucial for Salvation37:05 The Rosary: A Gift We Owe to Our Blessed Mother38:22 End

Chris Vander Woude joins the BeatiDudes for one of the most moving conversations in show history, sharing the extraordinary witness of his father, Tom Vander Woude. 
In this episode, Chris opens up about growing up on a Virginia farm in a family of seven boys, the ordinary holiness of a quiet father, and the daily habits that formed a truly heroic man. From family rosaries on tired knees to long days of work, sports, sacrifice, and steadfast fatherhood, Chris paints the picture of a man whose life was marked by quiet faithfulness. Along the way, the conversation explores fatherhood, rightly ordered priorities, the dignity of people with Down syndrome, and the simple challenge to just do the right thing
The heart of the episode centers on the day Tom Vander Woude gave his life to save his youngest son, Joseph, who has Down syndrome, and the powerful legacy that sacrifice continues to leave behind. Chris shares how his father’s story is now reaching thousands of people, how a possible cause for canonization is being explored, and why Tom’s example resonates so deeply with fathers, families, and anyone longing for a clearer picture of authentic manhood. 
Paul Kolker, Nick Bezner, and Jeff Schiefelbein reflect on sacrifice, intercessory prayer, family leadership, and the kind of virtue that is built quietly over decades before revealing itself in a single heroic moment. This is a powerful episode about holiness in ordinary life, the beauty of family prayer, and the kind of masculine witness that calls men higher.

No Greater Love – Advancing the Cause of Canonization for Tom Vander Woude | Episode #307

What's the multiverse theory? Deacon Harold continues his series on Mixing and Mastering Our Faith.

Mixing and Mastering Our Faith: The Melody of Creation– Order, Harmony, and Divine Design

Every man wants justice when he has been betrayed, humiliated, wounded, or cheated. But what happens when the demand for justice becomes its own prison? Chuck Jansen joins Heroic Men to explain why forgiveness is one of the hardest and most heroic choices a Catholic man can make. Drawing from years of teaching in prisons, churches, and men&rsquo;s groups, Chuck reveals how unresolved pain controls men, why forgiveness is a decision rather than a feeling, and how surrender to the Holy Spirit frees a man from anger without denying evil, abandoning truth, or excusing the offender.

Waiting may be one of the hardest tests of faith. In this final episode of this discussion series, John reflects on what it means to trust God’s timing when prayers feel delayed and hope feels fragile. Drawing from the story of Jairus and the hemorrhaging woman in Mark 5, he explores two desperate situations, two very different timelines, and one Savior who was never late.

If you are in a season where God feels slow, this episode is an invitation to refuse panic, stay close in the waiting, and surrender your timeline. God is not behind. He is preparing you. Do not be afraid. Just have faith.

Defending the Faith w/ Patrick Madrid

&quot;I believe the Lord has a raging fire spirit in Him. God the Father is this kind of passionate God.&quot; Join us for a profound conversation with Matthew Pinto, founder of Ascension Press, as we dive deep into the intersection of Catholic faith and entrepreneurship. Matthew shares his inspiring journey of how embracing his faith transformed him from a young entrepreneur into a leading figure in Catholic publishing and media.Our discussion covers:<ul><li>The unique challenges and rewards of building successful ventures within the Catholic ecosystem.</li><li>How Matthew’s early entrepreneurial experiences and family background shaped his innovative mindset.</li><li>His transformative conversion journey ignited by evangelical evangelization, leading to a profound commitment to the Catholic faith.</li><li>Why integrating secular skills into church initiatives can initially feel jarring but ultimately be incredibly fruitful.</li><li>The importance of risk-taking, passion, and prudent boldness in Catholic entrepreneurship.</li><li>Practical lessons Matthew learned while growing Ascension Press from a single book project to a globally recognized Catholic publisher.</li><li>Essential spiritual safeguards Matthew recommends, such as consecration, tithing, regular confession, and cultivating a generous spirit.</li><li>Why Matthew emphasizes maintaining a balance between work, family, physical health, and spiritual well-being.</li></ul>Matthew candidly shares insights into common entrepreneurial pitfalls, such as neglecting personal well-being, failing to celebrate wins, and undervaluing strategic leverage. He explains the concept of &quot;booze, bingo, and dancing&quot; to illustrate Catholicism&#39;s confident and balanced approach to engaging with the secular world without compromising faith.Whether you&#39;re building a Catholic venture, wrestling with workplace ethics, or discerning how to authentically live your faith through your career, Matthew&#39;s wisdom offers essential guidance for aligning professional ambition with eternal values.Resources:<ul><li>The Genesis Group: <a href="https://catholicfund.com/">https://catholicfund.com</a></li><li>Catholic Catalyst: <a href="https://catholiccatalyst.com/">https://catholiccatalyst.com</a></li></ul>We want to hear from you!

Fruity overtones of summer compote and rhubarb are the order of the day with the nose. Malt is first in line followed by some oak spice and creamy vanilla. The palate is walnuts, cigar boxes and vanilla custard, with a hint of allspice. A delicate and mineral lay finish completes this dram.

The gear we discuss is a blazer. What is the difference between a blazer, a suit coat, and a sports jacket? We discuss the differences in the second segment.

Why Your Lent ALWAYS Falls Apart (And How to Fix It) | Ft. Brian Holdsworth | Last Call Ep. 2

Jim Hickey brings the spicy to The BeatiDudes by sharing a full-blown meal from his Dallas-based restaurant Charlie’s Creole Kitchen. Instead of finishing the show differently, the entire show takes place over the course of appetizers, main courses, and desserts. Jim was raised by a father who left the church and a mother who practiced her Christian faith across multiple dominions. He was the only one of his siblings to be Baptized in the Catholic Church, and he remembers attending Mass with his Irish grandmother growing up before entering RCIA as a young man. Jim was not a big man heading into high school, but after a major growth spurt—9 inches in two years—he knew he was being called to play football. After one year of junior college, Jim walked on to the University of Georgia football team. After college, Jim went to work for a former Heisman trophy winner at a beer company. His career then took him to sales for an education software company working closely with underprivileged youth. He realized his life was missing Jesus Christ somewhere during this time. Jim shares one of his guiding lights, the Fulton Sheen reflections on the seven last words of Christ. That launches a crazy deep exploration of faith and manhood, including talks of his time at the Christ Renews His Parish retreat and Jim’s calling to the pro-life movement.

Tackling LIFE, FAITH, and EMMITT SMITH | Jim Hickey | Episode #133

Fatherhood changes a man. For record-setting runner and Catholic convert Alan Webb, raising daughters forced a deeper question: What does it actually mean to be a man? Webb talks about masculine leadership, marriage, athletic discipline, conversion, miscarriage, confession, and the responsibility every father carries to show his children what faith looks like under pressure. His answer is demanding: a man needs to know who he is leading, where he is leading them, and whether his own life can survive being copied by his children.
What You&rsquo;ll Learn
✅ Why fatherhood strengthened Webb&rsquo;s masculinity ✅ How miscarriage deepened his Catholic faith ✅ Why athletic discipline needs a spiritual destination ✅ What Catholic leadership looks like inside a family

What Fatherhood Teaches Men About Strength & Leadership - Alan Webb

Artist and iconographer Garret Hines shares the winding, grace-filled journey that brought his family home to the Catholic faith. In this heartfelt and often humorous conversation with the BeatiDudes, Garret opens up about:
<ul>
 <li>How a retreat for men shattered his resistance to children and ignited a call to mission</li>
 <li>Moving his family to Southeast Asia and the spiritual abuse that sent them back to the States</li>
 <li>Wrestling with Catholic teaching, praying to the saints in secret, and
debating Father Mike Schmitz (in his head)</li>
 <li>Why the Eucharist was the hinge on which everything turned</li>
 <li>How discipline in art mirrors freedom in faith</li>
</ul>
Whether you’re an artist, a seeker, or simply curious about the mysterious
beauty of the Catholic faith, Garret’s story that he shares with Paul Kolker,
Nick Bezner, and Jeff Schiefelbein is an invitation to trust God with the leap of faith even when you can’t see the landing.

Time in Thought

What happens when more boys have smartphones than fathers in their homes? A groundbreaking UK research study called 'Lost Boys' has revealed alarming trends about young men today. John Heinen and Devin Schadt welcome back three-time guest Jim O'Day to respond to and unpack this landmark research and its implications. Together, they examine how the critical absence of male role models—particularly fathers—is creating a generation of directionless young men. The conversation highlights shocking statistics: women in their 20s are consistently out-earning their male counterparts, and young men are afraid to talk to women. The trio explores how fatherlessness, education failures, technology addiction, pornography exposure, and society's ignoring of men are ruining the future of humanity. While secular solutions continue to fall short, John, Devin, and Jim present both immediate interventions and long-term approaches rooted in timeless Catholic wisdom.

Manhood & Identity

Joined by former Muslim,&nbsp;Oxford PhD&nbsp;recipient, and university founder, Dr. Jacob Imam, today we&nbsp;passionately&nbsp;discuss why the&nbsp;contempt&nbsp;for working with your&nbsp;hands is not just modern, but pagan.&nbsp;We explore how the current education system leaves men in a world that cannot&nbsp;tell them&nbsp;who they are or what they are for.&nbsp;We&nbsp;also&nbsp;get into how the idea that Catholicism has “gone soft” is a false&nbsp;rhetoric and&nbsp;how&nbsp;Islam offers a false sense of strength.&nbsp;&nbsp;

Ep 136 - Why The Reformation Misses the Mark, A Conversation with Paul Zucarelli

We had a guest walk in with gooey butter bars, so you already know it was a good night. Deacon Michael Halbrook is back, his fourth trip to Tulsa (one more and Dave's putting him in a green jacket), and Lady Pamela's baking came with him. Adam's oldest, Luke, was in studio too, which almost never happens, because mom was away and there were no rules. Luke's been out most nights hunting the raccoon that's been picking off the family chickens. No kill yet. But he knows what he's after now, and that's half the hunt.This week's pour was fitting: Hazel Baker Kentucky Straight Bourbon, six years old, bottled-in-bond at 100 proof, family owned out of Louisville. It came from a barrel the dads at Father McGivney Catholic High School picked out in Kentucky. Full strength, real caramel, nothing watered down.-------------------------------This episode is brought to you by the <a href="https://amenapp.org/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Amen app</a> from the Augustine Institute, the free app Adam's family uses to pray the Sunday readings on the way to Mass. No paywall, no subscription trap, just Scripture, prayer, and audiobooks like Divine Mercy in My Soul and True Devotion. And by <a href="https://selectinternationaltours.com" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Select International Tours</a>, the group Adam and Dave trust for pilgrimages. Whether you want to lead one or join one, that's who you call.-------------------------------Then it got serious. Michael spent 18 years in corporate tech and walked away from it to build something for the Church. Not on a whim. He built it nights and weekends for years while the paycheck was still coming, took the business plan to his wife and sons like a board of directors, and only leapt when the runway made sense. But the moment that broke him open happened kneeling in the back pew before Mass. He asked our Lord for the certainty he could keep providing for his family, and he heard back, unmistakably: You've never been the one who provided. I've always been the one who provided.That's the whole episode in one line.Bishop Paprocki gave him the order of operations: pray for clarity first, then courage. Most men flip it and go charging into the dark. Michael talks through the discipline of saying no to good things so you can say yes to the right one, and then walks us through what he built, the <a href="https://andaltar.wearedomus.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">&amp;Altar app</a> from <a href="https://wearedomus.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Domus Formation</a>. One reading, five minutes, a launch pad for your holy hour instead of a replacement for it. Pray, fast, give. A track for every season of life: the man, the woman, the family, the teen, the young adult, the elder.The back half is fatherhood. Michael's second son, Matthew, is at Air Force basic training right now (pray for him), and Michael's living the Establish pillar in real time. Protect and Provide, most of us understand. Establishing a son (raising him to walk on his own, then actually letting him go) is the hard one. They get into the father wound, the men who never had an example to copy, and the way out: be a good husband first and the father will follow. Because the office of father never ends, and neither do your prayers for your kids.Raise your glass.Topics covered in this episode:<ul><li>Deacon Michael Halbrook's fourth visit, Lady Pamela's gooey butter bars, and Luke's ongoing raccoon hunt</li><li>Hazel Baker Kentucky Straight Bourbon, a bottled-in-bond barrel pick from Father McGivney Catholic High School</li><li>Leaving 18 years in corporate tech to build a ministry, without doing it recklessly</li><li>Building the thing on nights and weekends while the secure paycheck was still coming</li><li>Taking the business plan to your wife and kids and making them the board</li><li>The back-pew moment: "You've never been the one who provided.

Clarity Before Courage: Discerning God's Call as a Catholic Man | The Catholic Man Show

Deacon Harold continues his series on God's Blueprint for a Happy Life sharing about parents and grandparents and what we have learned from them.

God's Plan For A Happy Life

Reflection: Joseph's silence hid heavenly secrets, a prudent humility before God. Heroic prudence discerns when to speak or withhold. Daily Challenge: Practice silence in conversation; listen more than you speak today. Prayer: St. Joseph, silent witness, guide my words with wisdom.

Day 10 Prudent Silence | Mark Hartfiel, TMIY

Reflection: Joseph's dreams guided his obedience to divine will, from betrothal to exile. Obedience is the root of justice, giving God His due without question. In heroic measure, it overcomes personal fears for the greater good. Daily Challenge: Obey a difficult instruction at work or home without complaint; reflect on how it serves God's plan. Prayer: St. Joseph, obedient servant, help me submit to God's will with your quiet trust. (Continue to welcome all the men joining the challenge and encourage them to invite a buddy to join them)

Day 14 – I Battle Porn So I Can Sleep Better and Be Happier

Deacon Harold & Ace McKay cue up the playlist to talk about "Freewill" by RUSH

Playist Edition: Freewill

Dave's been throwing parties. Three in four days. Confirmation sponsor for a friend's son, family and friends over the next night, and then — because the universe has a sense of humor — some local gentleman decided to remodel Dave's brick mailbox. With his truck. At speed. Bricks were found over a hundred feet away. The guy left his license plate behind, which Dave is now holding like a man who accidentally picked up evidence and doesn't know what to do with it. The driver's fine. Well — he's in jail. But he's alive. Dave wants him to know that God's mercy is always ready and present, even for the man who turned a brand-new brick mailbox into gravel.Meanwhile, Adam got a new plum tree. Planted a maple. He's getting oaks for the pig pen so they'll drop acorns someday. One of his chickens died in a water barrel trap that nobody designed on purpose — the lid flipped, the chicken couldn't get out. Farm life. And then the real news: baby Mary is doing better. Haylee got to hold her. Adam held her for over three hours — only his second time since she was born in February. Three months of NICU, and the man finally got to just sit with his daughter. Praise God. Keep those prayers coming.Also — Adam's turning 40 on June 2nd. And Lady Pamela is due with their next baby on June 4th. They floated the idea of recording an episode in the delivery room. Pamela has not been consulted.This week we're sipping 13th Colony Distilleries Southern Rye Whiskey, French Oak Finish, Small Batch — 47.5% ABV. Platinum award-winning. Silky texture with hints of rye, apricot, and brown sugar. The rye's there but it doesn't overpower — still has a lot of bourbon elements to it. About forty bucks. That's a great buy.Then the conversation turns to something Adam's son Jude sparked. Jude — Adam's second oldest — just finished reading the entire Bible, Genesis through Revelation, straight through. Now he's reading the Council of Trent Catechism. He's a kid. Nobody told him to do this. He just had good books lying around the house and picked them up. That's the whole point.The virtue of study — studiositas — isn't what school taught us it was. It's not cramming. It's not memorizing facts to dump after the test. Aquinas calls it a habit of the mind ordered towards truth. Classical education at its best doesn't fill your head — it forms the way you think. The more you read rightly, the more you can arrive at correct conclusions through a sound process, not just recall. Study leads to contemplation. Contemplation is rest in truth. And it's not about finishing the book. If you're reading to check the box, you've already lost the plot. Sit with it. Let yourself be carried. The intellectual life doesn't compete with the family — it serves the family.From there, Adam and Dave go back and forth on the books that actually formed them. Adam leads with Joseph Pieper's In Tune with the World — a short, devastating argument for why festivity dies when we strip the divine out of celebration. Dave counters with The Soul of the Apostolate — the book that reordered his understanding of what has to come first before any ministry means anything. Adam brings John Senior's The Restoration of Christian Culture — hard opinions, harder truths, and a quote worth sitting with: the virtue of study requires a canon, a body of great works proven across time. Without tradition to guide what's worth studying, you're just chasing novelty.Dave goes deep on Fr. Timothy Gallagher's The Discernment of Spirits — a practical walkthrough of St. Ignatius's rules that shed light on the stages of the spiritual life and how the enemy shifts tactics as you grow. Adam responds with Raymond Arroyo's biography of Mother Angelica — a story of suffering, faithfulness, and a woman who said yes without knowing where it would lead. Dave makes a case for the Psalms — Psalm 51, the De Profundis in Latin, and the realization that there's a psalm for every moment of a man's life, and he'd been skimming past them for years.Adam goes deep cut: Fr. Paul Murray's Aquinas at Prayer — a book that reoriented his understanding of St. Thomas from pure intellect to contemplative soul. Dave brings Divine Mercy in My Soul by St. Faustina — hundreds of pages of our Lord's words on mercy that are sometimes scandalously generous. Adam throws in Simon Sinek's Start with Why as the non-Catholic book that changed how he thought about business, marriage, and fatherhood. Both men land on fiction that haunts them — Adam with Sigrid Undset's Kristin Lavransdatter, Dave with Candice Millard's Hero of the Empire on young Churchill. They touch on Lencioni's Five Dysfunctions of a Team, Gone with the Wind, the bishop chapters of Les Misérables, Neil Postman's Amusing Ourselves to Death, and close with John Senior's Thousand Good Books — the canon itself, the list that connects it all.They end where they always end: with Plato. They're halfway through the Republic in their great books group. David sits on the dumb couch. He knows he sits on the dumb couch. He's fine with it.Raise your glass.<h2>TOPICS COVERED</h2><ul><li>Dave's brick mailbox obliterated by a truck — bricks found 100 feet away, driver in jail, license plate left behind</li><li>Three parties in four days at Porter Prairie: confirmation, family gathering, and involuntary demolition</li><li>Dave building a grain cradle for his scythe for the upcoming grain harvest</li><li>Adam's new plum tree, maple tree, and oak trees planned for the pig pen</li><li>The chicken that died in a water barrel trap nobody designed on purpose</li><li>Baby Mary update — doing better, Adam held her for three hours, Haylee held her too</li><li>Adam turning 40 on June 2nd and Lady Pamela due June 4th</li><li>Bourbon of the week: 13th Colony Distilleries Southern Rye Whiskey, French Oak Finish, 47.5% ABV</li><li>Jude Minihan reading the entire Bible and now the Council of Trent Catechism — and nobody told him to</li><li>Why having good books lying around the house matters more than assigned reading</li><li>The virtue of studiositas — Aquinas on study as a habit of the mind ordered towards truth</li><li>Study isn't cramming — it's forming the way we think, not filling our heads</li><li>Why finishing the book isn't the point — sit with it, let yourself be carried</li><li>The intellectual life doesn't compete with family — it serves the family</li><li>Joseph Pieper's In Tune with the World — why festivity dies without the divine</li><li>The Soul of the Apostolate — what has to come first before any ministry matters</li><li>John Senior's The Restoration of Christian Culture — hard opinions and the necessity of a canon</li><li>Fr.

Ep 246 | Begin With the End in Mind | The 2nd Habit of Highly Effective People

In this episode, we hear about how Kelly Wahlquist came to an intense and inspiring encounter with Jesus Christ through studying the Sacred Scriptures, and how this eventually led her to work full-time promoting Jeff Cavins' Great Adventure Bible Study across the country. Also, as the founder of Women In the New Evangelization (WINE), Kelly shares how she assists women to network and mutually enrich and support one another so they can discover together their feminine genius and be all that the Lord is calling them to be. We discuss the importance of being nourished and fortified as a whole person - mind, body, and spirit - in a fast-paced world that seeks to distract us from our true purpose and sets us up for burnout.Kelly Wahlquist is the founder of the national women’s ministry WINE: Women In the New Evangelization, the Director for the Archbishop Flynn Catechetical Institute in the Archdiocese of Saint Paul and Minneapolis, and a contributing writer for <a href="http://catholicmom.com/">Catholicmom.com</a>.  Kelly is the author of Created to Relate: God’s Design for Peace &amp; Joy, which encourages and inspires women to live fully their beautiful God-given gifts for building relationships, and editor of Walk in Her Sandals: Experiencing the Passion of Christ through the Eyes of Women and Gaze Upon Jesus: Experiencing Christ’s Childhood through the Eyes of Women, which are innovative collaborative works that allow women to enter into their relationship with Jesus in the way in which they were created to—as women.Kelly travels the country speaking at Catholic conferences and retreats and leads women’s pilgrimages (WINE &amp; Shrine) through Italy. She resides with her husband Andy and their three children in Minnesota.

You Can Only Give What You've Got w/ Kelly Wahlquist

Today's topic&nbsp;is something that many people experience but few know how to describe: “destiny malaise.” It is that feeling of drifting through life without direction, energy, or conviction that what we are doing truly matters. A person may be successful on paper, surrounded by entertainment, and still feel deeply unsettled inside.
