In the ascent towards holiness and happiness, a Catholic man must build the good habits (Virtue, from the Latin, vir, meaning “manliness, moral strength, goodness, valor”) of the moral life and break the bad habits (Vice, from the Latin, vitium, meaning “defect, offense, blemish, imperfection”) which cause him to fall into sin and risk losing his salvation. The Church provides a comprehensive list of Virtues which fall into two major categories: Theological Virtues (Supernatural) and Cardinal Virtues (Human). Because it is impossible for a mere man ascend to Heaven on his own ability, God grants every Catholic man the supernatural help to grow in Virtue through the Gifts of the Holy Spirit which are freely available to every Catholic man who remains in a state of grace; even if a Catholic man falls into mortal sin and loses the Gifts of the Holy Spirit, he can repent, confess his sins in the Sacrament of Penance and return to a state of grace and regain access to the Gifts of the Holy Spirit. What a man needs to break Vice and build Virtue is to come to understand Vice and Virtue and then seek God’s help. To help men understand Virtue and Vice and take concrete action, <a href='http://everycathoicman.com/'>EveryCathoicMan.com</a> has developed the Litanies of Virtue.<a href='https://everycatholicman.com/overview-of-vice-virtue-and-the-holy-spirit/'>To learn more about Vice, Virtue and the Gifts and Fruits of the Holy Spirit, go to EveryCatholicMan.com.</a> <a href='https://everycatholicman.com/litany-of-diligence-against-sloth/'>To see a written  version of the Litany of Diligence go to EveryCatholicMan.com</a>.

Rest in the Lord
Richard once again shares the wisdom gained from his experiences on the road. He speaks of understanding that vanity comes in many forms that we may not recognize. He desires to live as a true disciple, giving God his time and attention when he should - even if it means getting a good night's sleep so he can safely participate in sharing the journey with his friends and being able to focus on what God has given him to do in each moment.

Wisdom From The Road Richard 3

God loves you. He loves you and the same Power that rose Jesus from the dead abides in you ... because he loves you. Because he loves you, you will change the entire course of Human History, if you are obedient to just one thing ...

Nefarious is hitting the theatres by storm. Highly endorsed by many Catholic priests, including Cardinal Raymond Burke, for its accurate portrayal of the demonic, Nefarious will leave you on the edge of your seat wanting more.  As ChurchPop states on its website summarizing the plot, "On the day of his scheduled execution, a convicted serial killer gets a psychiatric evaluation during which he claims he is a demon, and further claims that before their time is over, the psychiatrist will commit three murders of his own."Several priests, including Cardinal Raymond Burke and exorcist Fr. Carlos Martins, recommend "Nefarious." The writers and directors of the film also brought audiences Abby Johnson's "Unplanned" movie." From roofs blowing off of houses to multiple car crashes effecting many of the crew members, Nefarious is a movie the demons don't want you to see. Join James as he interviews Cary Solomon, co-director and producer of the movie. Like what you heard? Maybe you just enjoy reading James’s show notes?

Ep 75 - Nefarious, Psychopath or Demon?

Where citizens are oppressed by a public authority overstepping its competence, they should not protest against those things which are objectively required for the common good; but it is legitimate for them to defend their own rights and the rights of their fellow citizens against the abuse of this authority, while keeping within those limits drawn by the natural law and the Gospels. Deacon Harold talks about this further today. Also looking into Soulful Psalm  40:17-18

Is it possible to be a committed Christian working in finance? The answer isn't obvious, and yes, we're looking at you fellow finance professionals.In this episode, we discuss the morality of finance as an industry. Working in the industry, professionals spend a lot of time managing other people's money and being told how to manage it in a lot of cases. This can often pose a conflict with a Christian's values if they are asked to manage money in a way that might be immoral. With some ref...

It’s common place to hear people say that things are happening today that have never happened before and that social tensions today are unique.  However true that statement might be it needs to be grounded in history.  In point of fact, the political tensions, the social tensions we suffer from today have roots as far back as the industrial era.  Encyclical “Rerum Novarum” by Pope Leo XIII addressed many of these tensions and by studying them we can gain jewels of wisdom for our approach today.

Grace Prompts a Catholic Conversion

Hello again! Welcome to Episode 3, "The Manly Dillema." Today,  James and Father Dom  continue their epic discussion Bishop Olmsted's gut-punching "Into the Breach." Bishop Olmsted asks three important questions in his exhortation that he addresses: 1. What does it mean to be a Christian man? 2. How does a Catholic man love? 3. Why is fatherhood, fully understood, crucial for every man? Within those questions, he discusses three primary contexts to shape and mold the questions: 1. A New Apostolic Moment - The "New Evangelization" 2. A Field Hospital and a Battle College 3. Man and Woman are Complementary, not Competitors This episode dropped all sorts of nuggets so make sure you tune in! You don't want to miss  how this podcast is single-handedly trying to fulfill the call of the new evangelization, why the Church tends to the wounded from the spiritual battle with Satan and his demons (another epic novel idea), and why men and women are indeed different but they are in fact on the same team.  DO NOT FORGET James' Challenge. Yes, James stole Father Dom's game. Men, get to confession. No matter how long it has been, no matter what is holding you back, get to confession. Get in a state of grace first and foremost and allow God to work in your life. I, James, dread going to confession every time, but I leave feeling a weight has been lifted from my heart and soul. The Lord truly heals and gives us such a tremendous gift with confession.

Ep. 3 - A Manly Dilemma

Jesus Christ is born in poverty to the Blessed Virgin Mary and St. Joseph in Bethlehem and is accompanied by an army of of angels. Every Catholic man can grow in happiness by seeking the Gift of the Fear of the Lord so he can be drawn to God and by building the Virtue of Generosity so he can always be exceedingly generous to the poor.

Episode 109  - Jesus the Son of God is born in Bethlehem - December 25, 2023 - Mass at Night - Lk 2: 1-14
