By now any Christian who follows events in the world knows how important it is for us to act.  The news headlines are filled with reports of things that are happening and calls for us to get involved.  On the other hand Christians are equally convinced that we need to pray.  Prayer is a part of our spiritual tradition and something our Savior commanded us to do. Is there a connection between the two?  Is there really a value to prayer when so much of our brain space is taken up by issues, and confrontations, and worry about the future.  I think there is and I want to make a case for it.

DGT Episode 261 - Making The Case For Prayer - Impact Culture For Christ Part 4

To borrow a football term, an audible is called at the last-minute when the scheduled guest doesn't show up, utilizing this episode instead to share some insights brought back from the 2nd Global Congress on Sport and Christianity. The conference took place in late October in Grand Rapids, Michigan, and this installment of CSR cites content from that event that underscore the longstanding relationship between sports and faith.

Carefree Timelessness

Christian leaders follow Christ – even though it seems contradictory to say leaders follow – this is what makes our leadership special.  It’s not about us.  It’s about Him and the influence He gives to the world through us.  The Virgin Mary demonstrates this admirable in her own life.  She is Christ’s perfect servant by doing everything that she can to make Him known and loved.  We can see this throughout his apostolic life but especially at two key moments.

DGT Episode 237 - Leading By Following - Mary Queen Of Leaders Part 9

Leadership is not done in a vacuum.  In fact the cultural situation we find ourselves in often influences the decisions we have to make.  This is why it is so important for Christian leaders to always remember the importance of their role as leaders in a world that is marked by sin.  In today’s episode, the second of our series of Leaders In A Broken World we develop the importance of Christian leadership for providing true unity and creating true harmony for the betterment of all.

Anonymity

We all know the value of separating our work life from our private life.  But are we always aware of the value that could come by integrating the two?  What would change about my personal life if I brought my work and dedication home? What would change about my work life if I integrated the values that I hold as an individual person into it? These questions have immense potential to change the trajectory of our lives.

The new, relaunched 12 year old, this single malt has been bottled at a slightly higher proof, negating the necessity for chill-filtration and as such retaining more of its original charm. A lovely dram from the Deanston distillery.

About the Topic:
This episode is taken from Dr. Tim Gray - <a href="https://ascensionpress.com/collections/exodus-called-to-freedom" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Exodus: Called to Freedom by Ascension Press</a>
When God called Israel out of slavery in Egypt to a life of freedom as his people, it was the defining moment in Israel’s history. Exodus: Called to Freedom looks through the lens of Christ and the Church to show that, more than just seeking to free his people from the domination of Pharaoh, God desired to free his people from the far more dangerous grip of sin. Presenter Tim Gray explains how the Exodus story is not just Israel’s story but our story as well, because it reveals who God is and what he calls us to be. Discover the divine purpose behind the plagues on Egypt and how God’s law reflects his love and concern. Learn the keys to authentic freedom and how a proper understanding of the Exodus can illuminate one’s understanding of the Christian Faith.

58: Why did Christ ascend into Heaven?

Leaders don’t get to be in the positions they have by doing nothing.  Instead they are men and women of action.  But does this mean they have to leave their people behind?  Is there a way to unite both action and productivity?  In the Catholic imagination the two are linked.  In the 13th century a Dominican friar named St. Thomas Aquinas gave valuable insight into this very question by comparing human leadership with God’s governing of the world.

DGT Episode 188 - Causing The Good - Leadership Lessons From Aquinas Part 3

After his time in the Navy, Steve built submarines for Electric Boat as a nuclear submarine design engineer.On Blessed are the Joke Makers, the Dudes must take on the persona of a rebellious teenager to answer the prompt, “a lesser-known Bible story is about ____.”In his role as an adjunct professor, Steve teaches a fascinating class at Seton Hall called Sports &amp; Spirituality. This class starts with an understanding of the human person and then explores how sports and spirituality both require discipline, fortitude, and forgiveness.TBD Question – What is something you wish you could do or know at a mastery level, but you are only a novice at this point?

St. Gregory The Great lived a very long time ago but his words remain important for us today.  Even though he was a Pope and a Bishop he was first and foremost a leader.  His book, “On The Rule Of Shepherds” is a hallmark on leadership from the middle ages to today.  Looking at this book can give us insights into what Christ asks for those that follow Him by leading others.

DGT Episode 134 - St. Gregory The Great - Of Leading And Shepherds

Season 5 Episode 4: Saintly Friendship From A Former Saint with Guest Danny Abramowicz

A Blessed Holy Week to you. Join John and Victor as we conclude the Lenten journey with the 7th Deadly Sin: Pride, the root of all sin. "In that sin man preferred himself to God...He chose himself over and against God, against the requirements of his creaturely status and therefore against his own good" (Catechism of the Catholic Church, paragraph 398). How do we return to God? Humility. "Humility is truth or the recognition of gifts as gifts, faults as faults. Humility is dependence on God, as pride is independence of Him" (Archbishop Fulton Sheen). This is the way. This is the remedy. 

Scripture passages to pray with:
- Proverbs 11:2
-James 4:6
-Philippians 2:3
-John 15:5

In this episode: 
-"Pride is an inordinate love of one's own excellence, either of body or mind or the unlawful pleasure we derive from thinking we have no superiors." ~Archbishop Fulton Sheen
-The key to offset pride is humility and surrender to God

This Corpus Christi Sunday, we reflect on the history of God's relationship with us. From the Passover through to the Resurrection, Christ shows us how he lays down his body for us, you and me. And he laid it down even before anyone took it from him. We are wounded sinners, blessed by the body of the Son of God. Join Mike in his reflections on the final covenant between God and Creation. This week on the Heroic Word, Mike Donovan, a Heroic Leadership Coach from New York, shares his reflections on the Scripture readings for this Sunday.

Relationships are vitally important to our lives as men. After all, Christ told us to love our neighbor as ourselves. Yet, if we are being honest, when people are working against us, constantly rubbing us the wrong way, or are outright enemies, it can be confusing to understand how this love takes shape. Today, we dive into a conversation about how to handle toxic people in our lives. Whether they are friends or even family, the guidelines we discuss today will help you cultivate the best relationships possible. We explore 3 levels of separation between you and other people, as well as 4 reasons why you might not be on the same page as the relationships that have developed in your life.✅ If you have any questions that we can answer on the show, please, send your questions to us at podcast@catholicgentleman.com.

Perceptions & Reality with Fr. Nesbit from Clear Creek Abbey

Grab a seat in the pew as John and Victor discuss perseverance as the key to living truth.

Perseverance

Whatever format it’s found in, teamwork has always played an essential role in getting anything done.  It’s so important in fact that much of contemporary literature around leadership focuses on a leader’s ability to generate and maintain healthy teams.  But isn’t the notion of a team something that is essential to the Christian religion?  And if so shouldn’t Christianity offer a special advantage to a Christian leader?  In this tenth episode of our series on the Christian advantage in leadership I take a look at this question.

DGT Episode 278 - A Different Kind Of Team - The Christian Leader's Advantage Part 10

Let’s face it, work is hard, and a lot of people would prefer not to work if they didn’t have to.  What would a world look like where people no longer worked?  People no longer owned things?  Wouldn’t it be better or in fact could it be really worse?  Pope Leo XIII in his encyclical Rerum Novarum explores this asking the question about the link between work and dignity.  It becomes a practical question for each one of us.

Saul’s work at Freedom Coaching provides one-to-one mentoring aimed at helping those with an attraction and compulsion to pornography, with the goal of reclaiming a healthy vision of the body and of sexuality.In this episode, Deacon and Saul discuss how people fall into a pornographic lifestyle and the ways in which wounds play a role in that. They also talk about the trauma porn causes and how men and women are affected differently. Saul shares his experience of leading clients on the healing journey of freedom from this compulsion through a “redeemed vision” of the human body.

American Politics and Catholicism w/ Dr. Michael Breidenbach

Friends, today I take several questions from kids all over the world, including: <ul> <li>1:40 - Why did Jesus appear so long ago?</li> <li>4:26 - Why did God the Father send Jesus to be born if God could be born himself?</li> <li>7:28 - How can you be happy in heaven if someone you love isn’t there?</li> <li>12:10 - What would happen if Jesus didn’t get crucified?</li> <li>14:38 - Can God die?</li> <li>18:35 - How will God end the world?</li> <li>21:08 - How did the devil get kicked out of heaven? By my research, once you’re in heaven, I thought you can’t get kicked out?</li> <li>26:10 - Does God like when we discover something?</li> </ul>
