Today I sit down with Kevin Vost to discuss Aquinas' advice on how to study better. We also listen to a brand new awesome song by the one and only Emma Fradd. Get Kevin's new book <a href= "https://www.amazon.com/How-Think-Like-Aquinas-Perfect-ebook/dp/B07HYCZC5Q" target="_blank" rel="noopener">How To Think Like Aquinas</a> Become a patron <a href= "https://www.patreon.com/mattfradd/posts" target="_blank" rel= "noopener">here</a>. Thank you, thank you, thank you! --- LETTER OF ST. THOMAS AQUINAS TO BROTHER JOHN ON HOW TO STUDY Because you have asked me, my brother John, most dear to me in Christ, how to set about acquiring the treasure of knowledge, this is the advice I pass on to you: That you should choose to enter by the small rivers, and not go right away into the sea, because you should move from easy things to difficult things. Such is therefore my advice on your way of life: <ul> <li>I suggest you be slow to speak, and slow to go to the room where people chat.</li> <li>Embrace purity of conscience; do not stop making time for prayer.</li> <li>Love to be in your room frequently, if you wish to be led to the wine cellar.</li> <li>Show yourself to be likable to all, or at least try; but do not show yourself as too familiar with anyone; because too much familiarity breeds contempt, and will slow you in your studies; and don’t get involved in any way in the deeds and words of worldly people.</li> <li>Above all, avoid idle conversation; do not forget to follow the steps of holy and approved men.</li> <li>Never mind who says what, but commit to memory what is said that is true.</li> <li>Work to understand what you read, and make yourself sure of doubtful points.</li> <li>Put whatever you can into the cupboard of your mind as if you were trying to fill a cup.</li> <li>“Seek not the things that are higher than you.”</li> </ul> Follow the steps of blessed Dominic, who produced useful and marvelous shoots, flowers and fruits in the vineyard of the Lord of Hosts for as long as life was his companion. If you follow these things, you will attain whatever you desire.

164: How to study like Aquinas, with Kevin Vost

In this episode, Jon Leonetti reminds us of the wisdom that is found in the desert. When you are tested in the "desert," how do you respond? Spend some time this week to meditate on Jesus' journey in the desert and why we focus on prayer, fasting and almsgiving during the season of Lent.

#14 The Desert

In this episode of The Catholic Gentleman, Sam is joined by Fr. Dwight Longenecker to discuss why it is vitally important for a man to understand, live, and boldly confront evil as Christ's clear example and constant demand. Avoiding a nonconfrontational, feel good Gospel is not the way forward or the teachings of the Church. This widespread approach has created a wayward flock that indirectly teaches pacifism and has damaged uncountable lives.In this episode we discuss;<ul>
<li>How getting knocked outside our comfort zone can lead to right action</li>
<li>How the Church calls us to boldly proclaim Truth</li>
<li>The damage to society at large by watering down Christ's teaching</li>
<li>And More</li>

What to Make of Death + Q&A w/ Fr. Gregory Pine, O.P.

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 honor the Solemnity of the Annunciation of Our Lord as we hear the astounding account of how the Blessed Virgin Mary accepts God’s call through the Archangel Gabriel to become the Mother of God.  We’ll reflect upon need for every Catholic man to grow in the Virtue of Humility so he can better imitate the divine humility of Our Lord Jesus Christ who humbly takes on human flesh to save mankind. We’ll also consider the importance for every Catholic man to seek the Fruits of Love, Patience, Kindness, Generosity, Modesty and Chastity and more full imitate our Beautiful Mother of God.

Alan Brown is a people-first leader with a flair for creating world-class cultures in the demanding automotive sales industry. He started his career in the car business in 1990 washing cars before working his way up and partnering in three different Volkswagen stores. He is now the General Manager for Sam Pack's Five Star Chevrolet in Carrollton, TX.Alan’s relationship with work took a life-changing turn when a friend challenged him to add prayer to his manager meetings. That moment made Alan realize he can and should put his faith at the forefront of every part of his business. It is a good thing Alan learned that faith comes first early in his career as preparation for what comes next. Alan faced an immense challenge when he was chairman of the VW National Dealer Council through Diesel Gate and the subsequent settlement. This scandal completely consumed Alan’s life for almost two years as he played a key role representing the needs of the dealer network while also handling the fallout at his own dealerships. Alan does a morning devotional every Monday through Saturday at 5:30 am CST, which he sends via text message to many. You can receive his texts by sending him a message at 972-824-6096. He also hosts a daily devotional on LinkedIn with thousands of followers every Wednesday morning.

Effects of the Sacrament of Marriage

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

Friends, many people are familiar with the Thomistic tradition, following St. Thomas Aquinas, but what about the Franciscan intellectual tradition, following St. Francis? Who are some of the great Franciscan theologians, and what can they teach us today?

Why do you pray? Why do you work? Why do you listen to this podcast? 
“If you don't have passion you are never going to do anything well”.  Where does that passion come from? On this week’s episode, John and Victor chat about this answer… your “why”. THAT is what is going to make a difference in how you live your everyday life. Your WHY is the detrimental factor in living a meaningful life.

In this episode, John and Victor talk about:
- Following the traditions of the family vs. claiming your own beliefs. 
- Jesus becoming REAL to John in jail

This week on Living the Call, Deacon Charlie sits down with returning guest Buchi O’Maria Akpati for a conversation about beauty. Founder and CEO of Beauty Unbound, which helps women realize their God-given beauty, Buchi shares about her background going from a professional celebrity make-up artist to a Carmelite religious. She talks about her time in the monastery and how she now shares the fruits of what she learned in the cloister with the world through beauty. In this episode, Deacon Charlie and Buchi break open beauty. She is a Nigerian-American speaker and beauty advocate, giving talks about a woman’s journey of discovering tools that enhance one’s God-given beauty. They discuss the history of makeup, how beauty trends could be an extension of colonization, and the radical effects of a cosmetic procedure. Buchi shares about the Influence of St. Louis de Montfort on her beauty program and what Mary, Mother of God, may have done to accentuate her beauty. Finally Buchi challenges the audience to go mirror-free.

Friends, in February 2023, at the Sharing the Church’s Story Conference in London, I reflected on the evangelical counsels of poverty, chastity, and obedience, and how these counsels can be lived out by the laity. Vatican II wanted great Catholic parents, great Catholic lawyers, great Catholic politicians, great Catholic writers and journalists, great Catholic business leaders, great Catholic bankers and investors, and more living their faith vibrantly and publicly. How do we accomplish that? By living out the evangelical counsels.

James Chapter One tells us to be doers of The Word, not just hearers. Listen to Gerald Montpetit tell us about how the Word of God, while attending a Protestant youth group, led him into the life of ministry that he has journeyed through ever since. After graduating from a Catholic Bible School, Gerald and his wife, Denise, put their faith into action by developing a program to reach and teach children about the faith through music.

It has been said that success is more difficult to handle than failure.  For those of us striving for success this can be hard to hear.  How can I be successful with success and why do worldly honors trip up more people than difficulty and challenge?  St. Thomas Aquinas tackles this question when he treats the virtue of magnanimity.  How can Christians really strive after greatness and stay humble?  This is the secret of the virtues and the secret that St. Thomas teaches about in his Summa Theologica.

Exodus Advent Challenge | The BeatiDudes | Episode #1 of 5

Is it ever necessary to label ourselves? Is it ever ok to label anyone else? Not according to internet celebrity and spoken-word poet, Prince Ea, whose viral video entitled "I Am Not Black, You Are Not White" claims that labels are the root of all social ills and that our identity is entirely separate from our physical reality. The video has reached over 100 million views on Facebook and over 11 million views on Youtube with an overwhelming approval rating (300 to 1 like to dislike ratio). The most liked comment on Youtube reads, "They showed this to us in school." In this episode of The Word on Fire Show, Bishop Barron critiques each segment of the argument posed by the young poet and explains the philosophical history behind this radical, yet widely accepted argument. The listener question asks for a book suggestion that encourages teens to return to the Church.

Friends, in light of the recent scandals, I know many people are wondering whether they should remain in the Catholic Church. And I totally get that; the outrage is warranted. But in this time of crisis, I beg you not to flee, but to fight--not violently, with the weapons of the world, but with the weapons of the Spirit. We need you.

There are three ways of knowing a thing: first, by revelation, and thus anyone may know that he has grace, for God by a special privilege reveals this at times to some, in order that the joy of safety may begin in them even in this life, and that they may carry on toilsome works with greater trust and greater energy, and may bear the evils of this present life, as when it was said to Paul (2 Corinthians 12:9): "My grace is sufficient for thee." Secondly, a man may, of himself, know something, and with certainty; and in this way no one can know that he has grace. For certitude about a thing can only be had when we may judge of it by its proper principle. Thus it is by undemonstrable universal principles that certitude is obtained concerning demonstrative conclusions. Now no one can know he has the knowledge of a conclusion if he does not know its principle. But the principle of grace and its object is God, Who by reason of His very excellence is unknown to us, according to Job 36:26: "Behold God is great, exceeding our knowledge." And hence His presence in us and His absence cannot be known with certainty, according to Job 9:11: "If He come to me, I shall not see Him; if He depart I shall not understand." And hence man cannot judge with certainty that he has grace, according to 1 Corinthians 4:3-4: "But neither do I judge my own self . . . but He that judgeth me is the Lord." Thirdly, things are known conjecturally by signs; and thus anyone may know he has grace, when he is conscious of delighting in God, and of despising worldly things, and inasmuch as a man is not conscious of any mortal sin. And thus it is written (Apocalypse 2:17): "To him that overcometh I will give the hidden manna . . . which no man knoweth, but he that receiveth it," because whoever receives it knows, by experiencing a certain sweetness, which he who does not receive it, does not experience. Yet this knowledge is imperfect; hence the Apostle says (1 Corinthians 4:4): "I am not conscious to myself of anything, yet am I not hereby justified," since, according to Psalm 18:13: "Who can understand sins? From my secret ones cleanse me, O Lord, and from those of others spare Thy servant."   ST I-II. Q. 112, A. 5.

WOF 247: Non-Catholic Q&A w/ Bishop Barron (August 2020)

The Resolution is: The Doctrine of Papal Primacy given at Vatican I is true to Apostolic Tradition. Fr. Patrick (John Ramsey) was born in 1970 in New Zealand. He attended the University of Waikato in Hamilton New Zealand, completing Bachelor's degrees in Science, majoring in Mathematics, and in Law with honors. He then completed a Master of Theology in Orthodox Studies at the University of Wales, in 2010 followed by a Ph.D. in Orthodox ecclesiology in 2015 at the University of Winchester, England. He presently works as a distance tutor for the Institute for Orthodox Christian Studies in Cambridge, England. He serves as a priest in the Western Rite deanery in the UK under the Russian Church Outside Russia. He has enjoyed engaging in Facebook discussions for a number of years after contributing to Orthodox blogs before this.   Erick Ybarra is a Latin rite Catholic speaker and blogger. Having graduated from the University of Central Florida with a B.S, he currently works for a global manufacturer in Technology. While entering University as an atheist, he had an encounter with the Lord Jesus Christ through the Reformed Baptist tradition. After spending years as a Protestant, he crossed the horizon to high-Church Anglicanism where he prayerfully studied the Bible and Church History leading to his conversion to the Catholic Church. He is a co-host for popular YouTube channel Reason and Theology and has made plenty of public appearances on Catholic social networks. His writings specialize in Catholicism and Eastern Orthodoxy, and he can be found at www.ErickYbarra.org. He is a Husband and Father of 5 children, living in the upper Midwest of the United States.   Join my email list and get my FREE ebook! <a href= "https://pintswithaquinas.com/understanding-thomas/">https://pintswithaquinas.com/understanding-thomas/</a>    SPONSORS Hallow: <a href= "http://hallow.app/mattfradd">http://hallow.app/mattfradd</a>  STRIVE: <a href= "https://www.strive21.com/">https://www.strive21.com/</a>  Catholic Chemistry: <a href= "https://www.catholicchemistry.com/">https://www.catholicchemistry.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.
