The life of St. Paul provides Christians with a wonderful example of what it means to lead in Jesus Christ.  In fact St. Paul had to face many of the same challenges we do.  In my book, Coached by Paul the Apostle, I try to lay out many of these insights into leadership and in this series of podcasts I try and develop those insights in greater depth starting with this particular session where I develop the link between authority and freedom.  This follows Chapter 1 of my book.

DGT Episode 313 - In The Pattern Of Paul - Insights Into Leadership Part 1

Get Derya's book, From Islam to Christ <a href= "https://www.amazon.com/Islam-Christ-Womans-through-Riddles/dp/1621641120"> here</a>. Here's the excerpt from the Summa Contra Gentiles that I read: [Muhammad] seduced the people by promises of carnal pleasure to which the concupiscence of the flesh goads us. His teaching also contained precepts that were in conformity with his promises, and he gave free rein to carnal pleasure. In all this, as is not unexpected, he was obeyed by carnal men. As for proofs of the truth of his doctrine, he brought forward only such as could be grasped by the natural ability of anyone with a very modest wisdom. Indeed, the truths that he taught he mingled with many fables and with doctrines of the greatest falsity. He did not bring forth any signs produced in a supernatural way, which alone fittingly gives witness to divine inspiration; for a visible action that can be only divine reveals an invisibly inspired teacher of truth. On the contrary, Muhammad said that he was sent in the power of his arms—which are signs not lacking even to robbers and tyrants. What is more, no wise men, men trained in things divine and human, believed in him from the beginning, Those who believed in him were brutal men and desert wanderers, utterly ignorant of all divine teaching, through whose numbers Muhammad forced others to become his followers by the violence of his arms. Nor do divine pronouncements on the part of preceding prophets offer him any witness. On the contrary, he perverts almost all the testimonies of the Old and New Testaments by making them into fabrications of his own, as can be. seen by anyone who examines his law. It was, therefore, a shrewd decision on his part to forbid his followers to read the Old and New Testaments, lest these books convict him of falsity. It is thus clear that those who place any faith in his words believe foolishly SCG 1, 6, 4.

Living with Chronic Pain (Cameron Fradd) | Ep. 377

Men today are under siege. Our faith is mocked. Our masculinity is sidelined. Brotherhood fails around us. It’s a crisis like we’ve never seen before. How do we turn it around? | <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https:/heroicmen.org/alliance">Join the Heroic Alliance | Learn more!</a>500 years before Christ, King Nebuchadnezzar, the greatest warrior-king of the Babylonian empire rounded up and targeted the best Hebrew young men. He brainwashed their religion out of them, stripped them of their Hebrew identity, and demanded that they abandon their God - or face death.Today, Big Tech and broken education are brainwashing our children. Our youth have been robbed of their Christian identity. We are being challenged to abandon God. In those days of Hebrew persecution, Daniel and three men of heroic virtue refused to back down. They set an example of unfailing heroism in the middle of a brutal culture siege.What kind of men are we today? Do we know how to step up and take a stand for our faith, our families, and our future?Deacon Harold Burke-Sivers challenges men to join him live for a half hour of powerful storytelling, practical wisdom, and a roadmap to build the habits of a Heroic Man."Knowing that other men share my experience in this siege against my faith, my family, and my brothers, is crucial. I can connect with other men. I'm not alone. This is why Heroic Men matters! Brotherhood makes you stronger!" - Deacon Harold Burke-Sivers

Our guest this week, Matthew Harvey Sanders, has an impressive AI resume and is using AI for the good of the Church. He has a bold prediction: 50% of people will be “gainfully unemployed” potentially on just a decade as a result of AI. That’s a scary thought if we consider that the vast majority of people either have no understanding (or very little understa...

Christopher West on Sex, God, Beauty, and the Theology of the Body | Ep. 269

Today I'm joined by author Daniel Mattson to discuss homosexuality. This is part 1. of our discussion so be sure to tune in next week to hear part 2. --- Thanks to the following awesome people who are supporting Pints With Aquinas on Patreon: Jack Buss! ...

You can support Pints With Aquinas here: Patreon.com/pwa --- Here's what Aquinas had to say about homosexuality (among other things): Wherever there occurs a special kind of deformity whereby the venereal act is rendered unbecoming, there is a determinate species of lust. This may occur in two ways: First, through being contrary to right reason, and this is common to all lustful vices; secondly, because, in addition, it is contrary to the natural order of the venereal act as becoming to the human race: and this is called "the unnatural vice." This may happen in several ways. First, by procuring pollution, without any copulation, for the sake of venereal pleasure: this pertains to the sin of "uncleanness" which some call "effeminacy." Secondly, by copulation with a thing of undue species, and this is called "bestiality." Thirdly, by copulation with an undue sex, male with male, or female with female, as the Apostle states (Romans 1:27): and this is called the "vice of sodomy." Fourthly, by not observing the natural manner of copulation, either as to undue means, or as to other monstrous and bestial manners of copulation. ST II-II, Q. 154, A. 11.

77.5 Is it okay for Christians to celebrate Halloween?

The third way is taken from possibility and necessity, and runs thus. We find in nature things that are possible to be and not to be, since they are found to be generated, and to corrupt, and consequently, they are possible to be and not to be. But it is impossible for these always to exist, for that which is possible not to be at some time is not. Therefore, if everything is possible not to be, then at one time there could have been nothing in existence. Now if this were true, even now there would be nothing in existence, because that which does not exist only begins to exist by something already existing. Therefore, if at one time nothing was in existence, it would have been impossible for anything to have begun to exist; and thus even now nothing would be in existence — which is absurd. Therefore, not all beings are merely possible, but there must exist something the existence of which is necessary. But every necessary thing either has its necessity caused by another, or not. Now it is impossible to go on to infinity in necessary things which have their necessity caused by another, as has been already proved in regard to efficient causes. Therefore we cannot but postulate the existence of some being having of itself its own necessity, and not receiving it from another, but rather causing in others their necessity. This all men speak of as God. ST 1. Q. 2, A 3. --- The 13 step argument given by Robert in the interview: 1. We find in reality some things that are capable of existing and not existing, because they are found to be generated and to corrupt. 2. We call such beings possible beings. 3. A possible being cannot be the cause of its own existence. 4. This is so for two reasons: (1) It would already have to exist in order to cause its own existence, but if it already exists then it does not need to cause its own existence, and (2) If it caused its own existence then it would be both prior to itself and also not prior to itself, which is a contradiction and thus impossible. 5. Therefore a possible being must get its existence from a cause that exists external to it. 6. It is impossible that everything which exists is a possible being. 7. The reason is that nothing could have begun to exist in reality if everything were a possible being because a possible being only comes to exist through an already existing cause external to it, which would not exist if everything were a possible being. 8. But if nothing could have begun to exist in reality then nothing would have existed in the past and nothing would exist now, because "from nothing, nothing comes." 9. But this is absurd because things exist now. 10. Thus not all things are possible beings—at least one necessary being must exist. 11. There are 2 ways for a being to be necessary: (1) it can get its necessity from another; (2) it can get its necessity from itself (per se). 12. If it has its necessity from another, then it requires a cause external to it. 13. An infinity of beings that get their necessity from another would not explain how anything came to exist, just as it is clear from the above that an infinity of possible beings would not explain how anything came to be. Conclusion: There must be a cause that has of itself (per se) its own necessity (i.e., it does not receive necessity from another), and on which all other beings are, ultimately, dependent for their existence. And this we call God. --- Robert mentioned a paper, "There must be a First: Why Thomas Aquinas Rejects Infinite, Essentially Ordered, Causal Series."

106: How do I begin reading the Summa Theologiae?

THE WAY OF THE CROSS
Episode 3: Points of Light, The Fifth and Sixth Stations

In this third episode, Jon Leonetti breaks down the Fifth and Sixth Stations of the Cross. Jon encourages us to reflect on moments when strangers may have gone out of their way to us. As you watch this video reflect on the following questions.

Reflection Questions
1. Where do I see people who need a little help that I could give? Do I have burdens that I could share? 

2. Jon highlighted that Simon of Cyrene is mentioned again later in scripture after Jesus is crucified and Veronica is not mentioned at all in scripture, yet both stories have been preserved in the Christian tradition. How do you engage these stories in your life and with others?

3. "Veronica" comes from the Latin word 'vera', meaning "truth", and Greek 'eikon', meaning "image" - though she was not mentioned specifically in the Bible, all Catholics who meditate on the Stations of the Cross are familiar with this little-known saint who made a big, bold effort to comfort our Lord! Have you ever wondered if this image still exists (it is - at the Vatican!)? Do relics like Veronica's veil or the Shroud of Turin help you in your faith?  

POINTS OF LIGHT: THE FIFTH AND SIXTH STATIONS

Thanks for listening! Please support me (Thank you!) on Patreon <a href= "https://www.patreon.com/mattfradd" target="_blank" rel= "noopener">here</a> or directly <a href= "https://www.pintswithaquinas.com/donate" target="_blank" rel= "noopener">here</a>. Here's a slightly different translation of Aquinas' prayer before Mass: Almighty and everlasting God, behold I come to the Sacrament of Thine only-begotten Son, our Lord Jesus Christ: I come as one infirm to the physician of life, as one unclean to the fountain of mercy, as one blind to the light of everlasting brightness, as one poor and needy to the Lord of heaven and earth. Therefore I implore the abundance of Thy measureless bounty that Thou wouldst vouchsafe to heal my infirmity, wash my uncleanness, enlighten my blindness, enrich my poverty and clothe my nakedness, that I may receive the Bread of Angels, the King of kings, the Lord of lords, with such reverence and humility, with such sorrow and devotion, with such purity and faith, with such purpose and intention as may be profitable to my soul's salvation. Grant unto me, I pray, the grace of receiving not only the Sacrament of our Lord's Body and Blood, but also the grace and power of the Sacrament. O most gracious God, grant me so to receive the Body of Thine only-begotten Son, our Lord Jesus Christ, which He took from the Virgin Mary, as to merit to be incorporated into His mystical Body, and to be numbered amongst His members. O most loving Father, give me grace to behold forever Thy beloved Son with His face at last unveiled, whom I now purpose to receive under the sacramental veil here below. Amen.

159: How to prepare for Holy Mass W/ Fr. Ryan Mann

THE WAY OF THE CROSS
Episode 4: Message of Hope, The Ninth and Tenth Stations

In this fifth episode, Jon Leonetti breaks down the Ninth and Tenth Stations of the Cross. Jon helps us see the counter to God's suffering and humiliation in today's theme of Message of Hope. As you watch this video reflect on the following questions.

Reflection Questions
1. What problems have you tried to solve by yourself, only to find yourself feeling hopeless because you couldn't do it alone?  

2. Jesus falls a third time in the Ninth Station, but He also gets up. What motivates you to get up when you fall?

3. Jesus Christ is humiliated when his garments are torn away from him. Jon Leonetti illudes to hope in the face of humiliation. God chose to humble Himself first so that He could save us. Is there some way you can humble yourself for the sake of others? 

MESSAGE OF HOPE: THE NINTH & TENTH STATIONS OF THE CROSS

Today we'll take a look at what Thomas Aquinas has to say about John 3:30: "He must increase, but I must decrease."

He Must Increase, I Must Decrease | Bible Study With Aquinas

One thing a Christian leader can be sure of is that they will be asked to carry the cross with Jesus.  But carrying a cross isn’t easy for anybody and few of us embrace it as we should.  St. Francis de Sales, and early master of the 1600’s, knew this very well and he wrote to the leaders of this world with encouragement to carry the cross that God gave them with Jesus.  But what does this mean for us today?  By reading letters that he wrote to persons of the world we can discover some of what he meant.

Joyful Chaos with Aquinas (Mother Natalia & Shayne Smith) | Ep. 495

The BeatiDudes proudly welcome their hero and friend, Bill Sladek, for a look back at his life of service. Bill and his wife answer the call to help others and serve God daily with their time, talent, and treasure. Not only does this inspiring couple lend financial support to various organizations and serve as chairs for various fundraisers, but they also roll up their sleeves and get to work. They have cooked and served meals at the Ronald McDonald House every month for over 13 years. They helped to complete the physical renovation of the building, which now serves pregnant women in danger of homelessness, where Bill and his buddies continue to mow and maintain the lawn. The examples of service that Bill performs are almost as endless as the number of wristbands he wears in support of many people and causes. This show has a surprise opening as Jeff leads Paul, Bill, and Nick through a Jesuit Dallas quiz show full of twists and turns. The quiz helps reveal more about Bill and his incredible past. Bill and BeatiDudes also reflect on the powerful experiences each person had at the National Eucharistic Congress in July of 2024. Bill has been a commercial real estate attorney in Dallas for 39 years and is a partner with Condon Tobin Sladek Thornton Nerenberg PLLC. Bill is an alum of the University of Notre Dame (Class of 1982) and received his law degree in 1985 from the University of Texas School of Law.Bill is a proud member of the Jesuit Dallas Class of 1978 and is currently Chair of the Development Committee of the Board of Trustees of the Jesuit College Preparatory School of Dallas Foundation. Bill is also the current president of the Board of Directors of the Notre Dame School of Dallas and a member of the Board of Management of the Semones YMCA. Bill and Mary (his wife of 40 years) have chaired several charity events, including the Bishop’s Golf Tournament, the Catholic Charities Bishop’s Gala, the Catholic Pro-Life Community’s Bishop’s Gala, and the Holy Trinity Seminary’s Spes Gregis Gala.Bill and Mary, both Dallas natives, began dating while Mary was a junior at Ursuline and Bill was a senior at Jesuit. They have five children—four boys (Billy, Brendan, Brian, and Baby Brett, their Angel Baby) and one daughter (Maddie, an Ursuline alum). They are parishioners at St. Monica Catholic Church.On the Blessed are the Joke Makers, the Dudes must take on multiple personalities to address the prompt, “Seminarians talk about _____ after class.” Follow the <a href="https://www.firebreakerseries.com/">Firebreaker Series</a>Follow <a href="https://www.streamfio.com/">Fio</a><h2>Our Partners:</h2><a href="https://sockreligious.com/pages/beatidudes">Sock Religious (10% Discount)</a><a href="https://learnmore.solidarityhealthshare.org/beatidudes/?utm_source=podcast&amp;utm_campaign=BeatiDudes&amp;utm_content=why_solidarity">Solidarity HealthShare</a><a href="https://aquinaswealth.com/">Aquinas Wealth Advisors</a><a href="https://www.lucidprivateoffices.com/">Lucid Private Office</a><a href="https://spokestreet.com/">Spoke Street Media</a><a href="https://catholiccardgame.com/?sca_ref=4057467.xx2t04Acid">The Catholic Card Game</a><a href="https://divinecomedyimprov.com/">Divine Comedy</a><a href="https://www.undivided.life/">Undivided Life</a><h2>Follow The BeatiDudes:</h2><a href="https://www.undivided.life/podcasts">BeatiDudes Website</a><a href="https://www.linkedin.com/company/90739902/admin/">LinkedIn</a><a href="https://www.facebook.com/TheBeatiDudesPodcast">Facebook</a><a href="https://www.instagram.com/beatidudes/">Instagram</a><a href="https://twitter.com/The_BeatiDudes">Twitter</a><a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/schiefelbein/">Jeff Schiefelbein on LinkedIn</a> BeatiDudes Theme Song and Music By<a href="https://thepencilbureau.com/">The Pencil Bureau</a>

It is Solved by Walking | TJ Bogan | Episode #178

In his letter to Persons In The World, St. Francis de Sales writes admirable advice for those whose vocation it is to live in the world but not be of it.  For some Christians involving ourselves in the world is a distraction and others disparage the vocation of business as a temptation that could threaten one’s salvation.  But it was not so for St. Francis de Sales.  On the contrary, he encourages those who are called to engage in the world but gives them great advice about avoiding vanity and ambition.

Q&A With Father Martins, Testimonies and Absurd and Overly Specific Criticisms

Presentation for an RCIA group in my Province

RCIA Presentation: Building a Relationship with God

In this video, we cut straight to the hard truth from the Gospel of Mark. Peter tries to block Jesus’ mission, and boom—he gets called out. It’s a wake-up call: we struggle with our own agendas instead of following a higher purpose. The disciples? They’re busy arguing about who’s the greatest. Jesus steps in, flips their world upside down, and brings a kid into the room. Why? To show that greatness isn’t about titles or power—it’s about serving the ones who can’t give you anything back. Embrace the grind, carry your cross, and serve the “nobodies.” That’s where real greatness happens. Let’s level up and be heroic.

Your Bible Questions Answered (Dr. John Bergsma) | Ep. 422

Dan Donaldson didn’t start with faith; he started with skepticism. Raised in a non-practicing family, Mass felt like a mystery—confusing and distant. But that all changed when a series of divine encounters sparked his search for truth. The real turning point? Watching his son’s genuine connection to Scripture. That moment pushed Dan back to the Catholic Church, where he discovered the profound significance of the Eucharist—the source and summit of Catholic life. Now, Dan’s life revolves around the Eucharist, and he’s not keeping it to himself. He’s calling others to embrace the life-giving power that transformed him from a skeptic into a believer. If you’re searching for something real, Dan’s story is proof that the Eucharist can be the answer.

A Dram with Rick Sarkisian

Today we are excited to be joined by an expert on Bl. Emperor Karl, David Ross, to help inform and instruct us on how we can learn from his holy life and Christ like example. Bl. Karl was elevated to the throne as Emperor of the Austrian Hungarian Empire in 1916 in the midst of the War to End All Wars, WWI. We discuss how he virtuously and heroically balanced his life as a Catholic Emperor, loving husband, and passionate father. He knew great suffering having been betrayed by his friend, forced into exile without his children, and ultimately dying at the young age of 35. He is a saint for modern men, join us.🔴 Bl.

Exorcist's Best Tips on How To Keep Evil Spirits Away

Objection 1. It would seem that it is not necessary to confess to a priest. For we are not bound to confession, except in virtue of its Divine institution. Now its Divine institution is made known to us (James 5:16): "Confess your sins, one to another," where there is no mention of a priest. Therefore it is not necessary to confess to a priest. Objection 2. Further, Penance is a necessary sacrament, as is also Baptism. But any man is the minister of Baptism, on account of its necessity. Therefore any man is the minister of Penance. Now confession should be made to the minister of Penance. Therefore it suffices to confess to anyone. Objection 3. Further, confession is necessary in order that the measure of satisfaction should be imposed on the penitent. Now, sometimes another than a priest might be more discreet than many priests are in imposing the measure of satisfaction on the penitent. Therefore it is not necessary to confess to a priest. Objection 4. Further, confession was instituted in the Church in order that the rectors might know their sheep by sight. But sometimes a rector or prelate is not a priest. Therefore confession should not always be made to a priest. On the contrary, The absolution of the penitent, for the sake of which he makes his confession, is imparted by none but priests to whom the keys are intrusted. Therefore confession should be made to a priest. Further, confession is foreshadowed in the raising of the dead Lazarus to life. Now our Lord commanded none but the disciples to loose Lazarus (John 11:44). Therefore confession should be made to a priest. I answer that, The grace which is given in the sacraments, descends from the Head to the members. Wherefore he alone who exercises a ministry over Christ's true body is a minister of the sacraments, wherein grace is given; and this belongs to a priest alone, who can consecrate the Eucharist. Therefore, since grace is given in the sacrament of Penance, none but a priest is the minister of the sacrament: and consequently sacramental confession which should be made to a minister of the Church, should be made to none but a priest. Reply to Objection 1. James speaks on the presupposition of the Divine institutions: and since confession had already been prescribed by God to be made to a priest, in that He empowered them, in the person of the apostles, to forgive sins, as related in John 20:23, we must take the words of James as conveying an admonishment to confess to priests. Reply to Objection 2. Baptism is a sacrament of greater necessity than Penance, as regards confession and absolution, because sometimes Baptism cannot be omitted without loss of eternal salvation, as in the case of children who have not come to the use of reason: whereas this cannot be said of confession and absolution, which regard none but adults, in whom contrition, together with the purpose of confessing and the desire of absolution, suffices to deliver them from everlasting death. Consequently there is no parity between Baptism and confession. Reply to Objection 3. In satisfaction we must consider not only the quantity of the punishment but also its power, inasmuch as it is part of a sacrament. In this way it requires a dispenser of the sacraments, though the quantity of the punishment may be fixed by another than a priest. Reply to Objection 4. It may be necessary for two reasons to know the sheep by sight. First, in order to register them as members of Christ's flock, and to know the sheep by sight thus belongs to the pastoral charge and care, which is sometimes the duty of those who are not priests. Secondly, that they may be provided with suitable remedies for their health; and to know the sheep by sight thus belongs to the man, i.e. the priest, whose business it is to provide remedies conducive to health, such as the sacrament of the Eucharist, and other like things. It is to this knowledge of the sheep that confession is ordained. --- Quotes from the early Church (taken from Catholic.com) The Didache "Confess your sins in church, and do not go up to your prayer with an evil conscience. This is the way of life. . . . On the Lord's Day gather together, break bread, and give thanks, after confessing your transgressions so that your sacrifice may be pure" (Didache 4:14, 14:1 [A.D. 70]). The Letter of Barnabas "You shall judge righteously. You shall not make a schism, but you shall pacify those that contend by bringing them together. You shall confess your sins. You shall not go to prayer with an evil conscience. This is the way of light" (Letter of Barnabas 19 [A.D. 74]). Ignatius of Antioch "For as many as are of God and of Jesus Christ are also with the bishop. And as many as shall, in the exercise of penance, return into the unity of the Church, these, too, shall belong to God, that they may live according to Jesus Christ" (Letter to the Philadelphians 3 [A.D. 110]). "For where there is division and wrath, God does not dwell. To all them that repent, the Lord grants forgiveness, if they turn in penitence to the unity of God, and to communion with the bishop" (ibid., 8). Irenaeus "[The Gnostic disciples of Marcus] have deluded many women. . . . Their consciences have been branded as with a hot iron. Some of these women make a public confession, but others are ashamed to do this, and in silence, as if withdrawing from themselves the hope of the life of God, they either apostatize entirely or hesitate between the two courses" (Against Heresies 1:22 [A.D. 189]). Tertullian "[Regarding confession, some] flee from this work as being an exposure of themselves, or they put it off from day to day. I presume they are more mindful of modesty than of salvation, like those who contract a disease in the more shameful parts of the body and shun making themselves known to the physicians; and thus they perish along with their own bashfulness" (Repentance 10:1 [A.D. 203]). Hippolytus "[The bishop conducting the ordination of the new bishop shall pray:] God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. . . . Pour forth now that power which comes from you, from your royal Spirit, which you gave to your beloved Son, Jesus Christ, and which he bestowed upon his holy apostles . . . and grant this your servant, whom you have chosen for the episcopate, [the power] to feed your holy flock and to serve without blame as your high priest, ministering night and day to propitiate unceasingly before your face and to offer to you the gifts of your holy Church, and by the Spirit of the high priesthood to have the authority to forgive sins, in accord with your command" (Apostolic Tradition 3 [A.D. 215]). Origen "[A final method of forgiveness], albeit hard and laborious [is] the remission of sins through penance, when the sinner . . . does not shrink from declaring his sin to a priest of the Lord and from seeking medicine, after the manner of him who say, 'I said, "To the Lord I will accuse myself of my iniquity"'" (Homilies on Leviticus 2:4 [A.D. 248]). Cyprian of Carthage "The apostle [Paul] likewise bears witness and says: ' . . . Whoever eats the bread or drinks the cup of the Lord unworthily will be guilty of the body and blood of the Lord' [1 Cor. 11:27]. But [the impenitent] spurn and despise all these warnings; before their sins are expiated, before they have made a confession of their crime, before their conscience has been purged in the ceremony and at the hand of the priest . . . they do violence to [the Lord's] body and blood, and with their hands and mouth they sin against the Lord more than when they denied him" (The Lapsed 15:1–3 (A.D. 251]). "Of how much greater faith and salutary fear are they who . . . confess their sins to the priests of God in a straightforward manner and in sorrow, making an open declaration of conscience. . . . I beseech you, brethren, let everyone who has sinned confess his sin while he is still in this world, while his confession is still admissible, while the satisfaction and remission made through the priests are still pleasing before the Lord" (ibid., 28). "[S]inners may do penance for a set time, and according to the rules of discipline come to public confession, and by imposition of the hand of the bishop and clergy receive the right of Communion. [But now some] with their time [of penance] still unfulfilled . . . they are admitted to Communion, and their name is presented; and while the penitence is not yet performed, confession is not yet made, the hands of the bishop and clergy are not yet laid upon them, the Eucharist is given to them; although it is written, 'Whosoever shall eat the bread and drink the cup of the Lord unworthily, shall be guilty of the body and blood of the Lord' [1 Cor. 11:27]" (Letters 9:2 [A.D. 253]). "And do not think, dearest brother, that either the courage of the brethren will be lessened, or that martyrdoms will fail for this cause, that penance is relaxed to the lapsed, and that the hope of peace [i.e., absolution] is offered to the penitent. . . . For to adulterers even a time of repentance is granted by us, and peace is given" (ibid., 51[55]:20). "But I wonder that some are so obstinate as to think that repentance is not to be granted to the lapsed, or to suppose that pardon is to be denied to the penitent, when it is written, 'Remember whence thou art fallen, and repent, and do the first works' [Rev. 2:5], which certainly is said to him who evidently has fallen, and whom the Lord exhorts to rise up again by his deeds [of penance], because it is written, 'Alms deliver from death' [Tob. 12:9]" (ibid., 51[55]:22). Aphraahat the Persian Sage "You [priests], then, who are disciples of our illustrious physician [Christ], you ought not deny a curative to those in need of healing. And if anyone uncovers his wound before you, give him the remedy of repentance. And he that is ashamed to make known his weakness, encourage him so that he will not hide it from you. And when he has revealed it to you, do not make it public, lest because of it the innocent might be reckoned as guilty by our enemies and by those who hate us" (Treatises 7:3 [A.D. 340]). Basil the Great "It is necessary to confess our sins to those to whom the dispensation of God's mysteries is entrusted. Those doing penance of old are found to have done it before the saints. It is written in the Gospel that they confessed their sins to John the Baptist [Matt. 3:6], but in Acts [19:18] they confessed to the apostles" (Rules Briefly Treated 288 [A.D. 374]).

EP 125 Q&A With Fr. Larry Richards - The Reason For Our Hope Foundation

Catholic men have a moral obligation to be involved in the political and civil life of their cities. However, with so much media noise, character defamation attacks, and confusing rhetoric it can often seem overwhelming. My guest today, Mark Cronenwett, argues that it does not have to be this way. As a devout Catholic father of 7, a lawyer, and a man actively running for city council, he has already brought change to his city and is on the campaign trail to bring more.We discuss:<ul>
<li>Life as a Catholic Lawyer</li>

S2-Case #12-Awakened-Pt 1

Today we discuss with Thomas the sin of sloth. What is it? When does it become a mortal sin? --- Sloth, according to Damascene (De Fide Orth. ii, 14) is an oppressive sorrow, which, to wit, so weighs upon man's mind, that he wants to do nothing; thus acid things are also cold. Hence sloth implies a certain weariness of work, as appears from a gloss on Psalm 106:18, "Their soul abhorred all manner of meat," and from the definition of some who say that sloth is a "sluggishness of the mind which neglects to begin good." Now this sorrow is always evil, sometimes in itself, sometimes in its effect. For sorrow is evil in itself when it is about that which is apparently evil but good in reality, even as, on the other hand, pleasure is evil if it is about that which seems to be good but is, in truth, evil. Since, then, spiritual good is a good in very truth, sorrow about spiritual good is evil in itself. And yet that sorrow also which is about a real evil, is evil in its effect, if it so oppresses man as to draw him away entirely from good deeds. Hence the Apostle (2 Corinthians 2:7) did not wish those who repented to be "swallowed up with overmuch sorrow." Accordingly, since sloth, as we understand it here, denotes sorrow for spiritual good, it is evil on two counts, both in itself and in point of its effect. Consequently it is a sin, for by sin we mean an evil movement of the appetite, as appears from what has been said above (II-II:10:2; I-II:74:4). ... mortal sin is so called because it destroys the spiritual life which is the effect of charity, whereby God dwells in us. Wherefore any sin which by its very nature is contrary to charity is a mortal sin by reason of its genus. And such is sloth, because the proper effect of charity is joy in God, as stated above (II-II:28:1), while sloth is sorrow about spiritual good in as much as it is a Divine good. Therefore sloth is a mortal sin in respect of its genus. But it must be observed with regard to all sins that are mortal in respect of their genus, that they are not mortal, save when they attain to their perfection. Because the consummation of sin is in the consent of reason: for we are speaking now of human sins consisting in human acts, the principle of which is the reason. Wherefore if the sin be a mere beginning of sin in the sensuality alone, without attaining to the consent of reason, it is a venial sin on account of the imperfection of the act. Thus in the genus of adultery, the concupiscence that goes no further than the sensuality is a venial sin, whereas if it reach to the consent of reason, it is a mortal sin. So too, the movement of sloth is sometimes in the sensuality alone, by reason of the opposition of the flesh to the spirit, and then it is a venial sin; whereas sometimes it reaches to the reason, which consents in the dislike, horror and detestation of the Divine good, on account of the flesh utterly prevailing over the spirit. On this case it is evident that sloth is a mortal sin.

Atheist Doctor Becomes Catholic OBGYN and Pregnancy Expert

We are joined by a former white supremacist and now a devout Catholic man of letters, Joseph Pearce. We discuss his conversion to Catholicism from a life of hatred, G.K. Chesterton, and why men must read poetry. Joseph shares with us the intimate tie between poetry and prayer, he clarifies our thoughts on truth and beauty, and drives home how poetry identifies and assists in the completion of an authentic man. Please join us in this conversation."True perception comes with virtue, specifically the virtue of humility,it is humility that gives us a sense of gratitude,it is gratitude that opens the eyes to wonder,and it is only when the eyes are open to wonder that we are moved to contemplation,and it is only when we are moved to contemplation that the mind is open to dilation,and it is dilation which is the full opening of the mind to reality." - Joseph Pearce on The Catholic GentlemanJoseph Pearce is a premier literary biographer and author of our time, especially in reviewing the depths of the Catholic literary tradition. He is the author of acclaimed biographies of G.K. Chesterton, Oscar Wilde, Hilaire Belloc, and J.R.R. Tolkien, and books on English poetry and literature.He has hosted two 13-part television series about Shakespeare on EWTN, and has also written and presented documentaries on EWTN on the Catholicism of The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit.

How the New Age Movement Swept a Catholic Out of the Church Founded by Christ | Guest Hugo Delgado

&quot;Gender theory is extremely dangerous since it cancels differences in its claim to make everyone equal. This gift of human life in all its dimensions is to be accepted with gratitude and placed at the service of the good.&quot; Join us for a candid conversation with Wayne Ottenbreit, counselor, educator, and father of nine daughters, as we explore the Catholic perspective on gender ideology and its implications for families and society. Our discussion explores:- How gender theory represents a modern manifestation of humanity&#39;s perennial temptation to remake ourselves rather than accept God&#39;s design- The distinction between genuine compassion for individuals suffering from gender dysphoria versus political activism- Why girls and vulnerable individuals appear to be disproportionately affected by this ideology- How stereotypes about masculinity and femininity ironically drive some gender confusion- The concerning misogyny underlying the message that women must become like men to have value- The Catholic vision of authentic femininity that empowers women to be fully themselves- How parents can navigate raising children in a culture increasingly shaped by gender ideology- The importance of creating family subcultures that provide alternative frameworks to mainstream narratives- Finding the courage to speak truth with charity, even on controversial topics Wayne shares insights from his experience as both a counselor and father, highlighting the profound disconnect between today&#39;s gender ideology and the natural complementarity of male and female that creates the &quot;greatest imaginable difference&quot; and &quot;the most beautiful reciprocity.&quot; His perspective reminds us that while gender theory may be a &quot;blip in history,&quot; we must respond with both clarity and compassion. Let&#39;s reclaim authentic understanding of masculinity and femininity while responding with genuine kindness—not merely niceness—to those navigating gender confusion in a culture that often offers harmful solutions to legitimate suffering.
