Today we share Bishop Barron’s presentation entitled “Breaking Through the Buffered Self,” which he offered for the prestigious 2022 Albert Cardinal Meyer Lecture series hosted at Mundelein Seminary back in March 2022. In the talk, Bishop Barron looks at the intellectual matrix that has made the army of the disaffiliated possible, namely, what Charles Taylor calls the culture of the “buffered self,” the ego cut off from any living contact with the transcendent. Then, using the three great transcendentals—the good, the true, and the beautiful—as his framework, he proposes ways to break through the buffered self and to open the restless heart to a consideration of God and the things of God. (This is Part I of his lecture series. We will share Part II on a future episode.)

Envy

As anyone who has ever had to manage people can tell you, jealousy is one of the most dangerous passions to rule in the workplace.  Where people are jealous division will ensue and teamwork will corrode.  We who are in charge of our teams needs to watch for jealousy and ward against it.  Pope St. Gregory The Great in his “Rule Of Shepherds” Book 3 gives us some valuable insights we can apply as we try to lead our workplace with Christ.

EP 147 Q&A With Fr. Larry Richards - The Reason For Our Hope Foundation

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, the Perfection of Charity, reveal the necessity of forgiving others and offers a frightening warning to men about the awful fate of men who fail to forgive in the Parable of the Unmerciful Servant. We’ll reflect upon need for every Catholic man to seek the Gift of Piety from the Holy Spirit so he can have great sorrow for his sins and seek true forgiveness in the Sacrament of Penance.  We’ll also consider the importance for every Catholic man to seek the fruit of love from the Holy Spirit so a man can get the help he needs to forgive those who are difficult to forgive.

The Holiest Week of the Year

Most Christians today recognize the importance of engaging our culture with the Gospel.  Changes are afoot that would radically alter the way that we raise our families and understand our fundamental freedoms.  This sense of urgency has led many to find the most effective ways to impact the culture.  How do we transform a culture before it transforms us?  One of the most overlooked methods, however, is the simplest: the direct encounter we can have with the people around us.  If cultural leadership were football, this would be the ground game, and this is the method our Lord, Himself, showed us.

Do the Harder Thing w/ Jordan Burke

<h3>Bishop Emeritus of Calgary Frederick Henry</h3>
Sean starts by pouring himself a dram of Kilbeggan Iris Whiskey out of fatherly pride as his daughter is evangelizing in Ireland with NET ministries in the Kilbeggan area of Ireland. &nbsp;His Excellency found the occasion special enough to pour himself a dram of Crown Royal Limited Edition, “it’s pretty smooth stuff.” According to Bishop Henry.
Bishop Baron said in his series “Catholicism” that Jesus went to Jerusalem to pick a fight. &nbsp;The Holy Spirit sent this Napoleon sized Bishop to Calgary to pick a fight with the forces of evil. &nbsp;Hear what his mother thought she might have done wrong with this Bishop as a child who in Calgary had no fear. His first words setting foot in Calgary were prophetic. &nbsp;See how he rallied the Knights of Columbus to do something over night which he gave them two years to accomplish.
Clearly the secret for raising this fine young man is his father. &nbsp;Listening to him speak, you’d swear he’s talking about St. Joseph himself. &nbsp;He gives our young four simple rules to abide by to lead us all to happiness and eternal life. &nbsp;This is a must see.

Faith is the beginning of our life with God, and it leads to true freedom. Despite their imprisonment in the POW camp, Father Kapaun encouraged his men to find the freedom and strength that faith offers us.

Faith

Get your Pints With Aquinas shirt <a href= "https://teespring.com/fradd" target="_blank" rel= "noopener">here!</a> Available for 7 days only. --- It behooved Christ to rise again, for five reasons: First of all; for the commendation of Divine Justice, to which it belongs to exalt them who humble themselves for God's sake, according to Luke 1:52: "He hath put down the mighty from their seat, and hath exalted the humble." Consequently, because Christ humbled Himself even to the death of the Cross, from love and obedience to God, it behooved Him to be uplifted by God to a glorious resurrection; hence it is said in His Person (Psalm 138:2): "Thou hast known," i.e. approved, "my sitting down," i.e. My humiliation and Passion, "and my rising up," i.e. My glorification in the resurrection; as the gloss expounds. Secondly, for our instruction in the faith, since our belief in Christ's Godhead is confirmed by His rising again, because, according to 2 Corinthians 13:4, "although He was crucified through weakness, yet He liveth by the power of God." And therefore it is written (1 Corinthians 15:14): "If Christ be not risen again, then is our preaching vain, and our [Vulgate: 'your'] faith is also vain": and (Psalm 29:10): "What profit is there in my blood?" that is, in the shedding of My blood, "while I go down," as by various degrees of evils, "into corruption?" As though He were to answer: "None. 'For if I do not at once rise again but My body be corrupted, I shall preach to no one, I shall gain no one,'" as the gloss expounds. Thirdly, for the raising of our hope, since through seeing Christ, who is our head, rise again, we hope that we likewise shall rise again. Hence it is written (1 Corinthians 15:12): "Now if Christ be preached that He rose from the dead, how do some among you say, that there is no resurrection of the dead?" And (Job 19:25-27): "I know," that is with certainty of faith, "that my Redeemer," i.e. Christ, "liveth," having risen from the dead; "and" therefore "in the last day I shall rise out of the earth . . . this my hope is laid up in my bosom." Fourthly, to set in order the lives of the faithful: according to Romans 6:4: "As Christ is risen from the dead by the glory of the Father, so we also may walk in newness of life": and further on; "Christ rising from the dead dieth now no more; so do you also reckon that you are dead to sin, but alive to God." Fifthly, in order to complete the work of our salvation: because, just as for this reason did He endure evil things in dying that He might deliver us from evil, so was He glorified in rising again in order to advance us towards good things; according to Romans 4:25: "He was delivered up for our sins, and rose again for our justification."

INNOVATION and the CATHOLIC CHURCH | Jason Deuterman, OSV Institute | Episode #040

Father Michael McGivney is a documentary that brings to life the story of one of America's most extraordinary Catholic priests. Born in Connecticut of Irish immigrant parents just a few years before the Civil War, Michael McGivney grew up at a time when millions of Catholic immigrants were struggling to overcome poverty and prejudice. As a parish priest in the gritty New England manufacturing town of New Haven, he made a deep impact on his community, earning the respect of the Protestant establishment and the love of his parishioners at St. Mary's Church. Emboldened to care for families threatened by the death of the breadwinner, Fr. McGivney founded the Knights of Columbus, a mutual benefit society that today remains the world's largest Catholic lay organization with 1.8 million members in 13 nations. This film offers a rare glimpse into the life of an extraordinary priest and visionary leader.

68: Responding to Hank Green's objections to Aquinas' 5 ways

Season Five explores the gift of Godly Friendship and why it matters.

Introduction to Season 5: Manly Friendship

In this episode, we hear from Steve Ray about two different types of pilgrimages: a pilgrimage of faith to the Catholic Church; and a literal pilgrimage through the Holy Land. Steve and his wife Janet have traveled to the Holy Land over 180 times exploring, filming, and leading thousands of pilgrims. We discuss the importance of pilgrimages and the power that comes from experiencing the very places Jesus, His mother, and the Saints walked. Steve Ray has authored many books, including the best-selling book "Crossing the Tiber: Evangelical Protestants Discover the Historic Church", and is a highly acclaimed speaker and producer of Catholic films.Steve Ray is a convert to the Catholic Church and the author of three best-selling Ignatius Press books (Crossing the Tiber, Upon this Rock, and St. John’s Gospel). He speaks at conferences around the world.  He is a regular guest on The Journey Home and has appeared on many other radio and TV programs, including Fox News. He is writer, producer and host of the 10-part video/DVD series The Footprints of God: the Story of Salvation from Abraham to Augustine filmed entirely on location in the Holy Land and surrounding countries. Steve and his wife Janet are certified guides to the Holy Land and lead pilgrimages throughout the Middle East and Rome. He and Janet live in Michigan. They have four children and ten grandchildren.Host: Mario Costabile Cohost: Dr. David HajdukFollow Array of Hope Ministries on:Facebook: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/ArrayOfHopeMinistries">@arrayofhopeministries</a>Instagram: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/arrayofhopeministries/">@arrayofhopeministries</a>Twitter: <a href="https://twitter.com/AOHMinistries">@aohministries</a>TikTok: <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@arrayofhopeministries">@arrayofhopeministries</a> LinkedIn: <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/company/array-of-hope-ministries/">@arrayofhopeministries</a> YouTube: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/c/arrayofhope">@ArrayofHopeMinistries</a>

Going on Pilgrimage w/ Steve Ray

From politics to COVID, this past year has been filled with disagreement. That led Christian apologist Natasha Crain to write an article titled <a href= "https://natashacrain.com/disagreement-fatigue-and-2020-how-the-events-of-the-year-will-shape-christian-interactions-in-2021-and-beyond/"> “Disagreement Fatigue and 2020: How the Events of the Year Will Shape Christian Interactions in 2021 and Beyond.”</a> Bishop Barron and Brandon discuss the article, focusing on three of Crain's predictions for 2021: more Christians will be hesitant to speak publicly about their faith, Christians will increasingly see apologetics as a contributor to (unhealthy) disagreement, and belief in a generic God will continue to be acceptable in culture, but belief in Jesus as God will become increasingly gauche. A listener asks, what form was Jesus in before the incarnation?

WOF 279: Overcoming Disagreement Fatigue

Grab a seat in the pew as John and Victor discuss humility and its importance as the foundation of the Christian life.

Humility

Today we’re talking to renowned Boston College professor of philosophy Dr. Peter Kreeft about a topic we all face in our lives: suffering. In his book “Making Sense Out of Suffering,” Dr. Kreeft shares an approach that helps us find meaning and purpose during distress and hardship.

On this podcast, we learn that:

- When we suffer, God is there with us
- We cannot negotiate our suffering with God
- A loving, benevolent God creates purpose out of our suffering

Suffering with Dr. Peter Kreeft

After perusing <a href= "http://www.pewresearch.org/fact-tank/2016/08/24/why-americas-nones-left-religion-behind/"> the latest Pew Study</a> on why young people are leaving the active practice of Christianity, Bishop Barron noticed that (once again) the reasons they offer for abandoning Christianity are entirely not compelling. That is to say, any theologian, apologist, or evangelist worth his salt should be able easily to answer these objections to faith and hopefully encourage the youngster to reconsider the Truth of the Church. With this in mind for today's episode, Bishop offers smart, passionate responses to the common misconceptions and objections that continue to lure young people away from God. The listener question asks which books are best for evangelizing atheists from both a rational and emotional standpoint. Topics Discussed <ul> <li>0:17  - Introduction, Bishop's trip to Lake Placid and current reading list</li> <li>3:25 - Bishop's reaction to young people leaving the church?</li> <li>5:15 - Should we avoid pressuring them and let young people return on their own?</li> <li>7:48 - Some common objections: Is religion the opiate of the people?</li> <li>11:10 - Has science disproven religion?</li> <li>15:15 - If religion causes so much violence, how can it possibly be right?</li> <li>17:50 - Does the sex abuse scandal invalidate the Church?</li> <li>20:53 - Is it better to be open-minded to all world religions?</li> <li>26:48 - What if church is too boring and you don't have time?</li> <li>30:40 - How would Bishop Barron encourage young people to return to the Church?</li> <li>32:09 - Question from listener: What are some good books to battle atheism both from a rational and emotional standpoint?</li> </ul> Bonus Resources <ul> <li>Videos <ul> <li><a href= "http://www.wordonfire.org/resources/video/effective-evangelization/228/"> Bishop Barron on Effective Evangelization </a>(Bishop Barron)</li> <li><a href= "http://www.wordonfire.org/resources/video/what-is-god-faith-seeks-understanding/118/"> Bishop Barron on “What is God?”</a></li> <li><a href= "http://www.wordonfire.org/resources/video/christianity-and-ethics/4666/"> Bishop Barron on Christianity and Ethics</a></li> </ul> </li> <li>DVD's <ul> <li><a href= "http://www.wordonfire.org/resources/dvd/catholicism-the-new-evangelization/2334/"> CATHOLICISM: The New Evangelization</a> (Word On Fire)</li> <li> <a href= "http://www.wordonfire.org/resources/dvd/faith-clips/4421/">Faith Clips</a> (Word On Fire)</li> </ul> </li> <li> Articles   <ul> <li><a href= "http://www.wordonfire.org/resources/article/the-joy-of-evangelizing/473/"> The Joy of Evangelization</a> (Bishop Barron)</li> <li><a href= "http://www.wordonfire.org/resources/article/practical-strategies-of-evangelization/322/"> Practical Strategies of Evangelization</a> (Bishop Barron)</li> </ul> </li> <li>Books <ul> <li><a href= "http://www.wordonfire.org/resources/book/seeds-of-the-word-finding-god-in-the-culture/4683/"> Seeds of the Word: Finding God in the Culture </a>(Bishop Barron)</li> <li><a href= "http://www.wordonfire.org/resources/book/word-on-fire-proclaiming-the-power-of-christ/2367/"> Word On Fire: Proclaiming the Power of Christ</a> (Bishop Barron)</li> <li><a href= "http://www.amazon.com/Answering-Atheism-Make-Logic-Charity/dp/1938983432/?tag=stno-20"> Answering Atheism: How to Make the Case for God with Logic and Charity</a> by Trent Horn</li> <li><a href= "http://www.wordonfire.org/resources/book/thomas-aquinas-spiritual-master/2358/"> Thomas Aquinas: Spiritual Master</a> by Bishop Robert Barron</li> <li><a href= "https://www.amazon.com/Mere-Christianity-C-S-Lewis/dp/0060652926"> Mere Christianity</a> by C.S.

A listener asks why God needed a second coming of Christ and couldn't have accomplished everything during his first coming.

Welcome to Leadership Where It Matters Most w/ Brett Powell

Happy Thanksgiving! Today John and Sam are joined by Jason Craig. Jason has spent years studying and defining the rites of passage boys must take to become men. He has applied this anthropological research to the teachings and lived reality of Christ and His Church, and he shares his discovery with us. The author of Leaving Boyhood Behind, he explains to us how societies have been built around raising boys to adult maturity through recognizable passages and more importantly how our society is lacking in providing these necessary stages of initiation.Fraternus - <a href="https://fraternus.net/">Click Here</a>St. Joseph Farm - <a href="https://stjosephsfarm.com/">Click Here</a>The Sword and Spade - <a href="https://www.theswordandspade.com/">Click Here</a>🔴 Join us on Catholic Gentleman Plus (To receive a ton of great content and strategies to become a better man.

Abiding in Hope

The Catholic Men's Leadership Alliance (CMLA) aims to equip men for their role as protectors and leaders within their families, communities, parishes, and nation.   Become a leader | Learn more

Our alliance emphasizes the importance of men coming together to grow in faith, strengthen each other, and embrace their duty as servant leaders. We recognize the challenges society faces if men abandon their responsibilities. 
We need men to step up and lead. 

CMLA empowers young leaders to build authentic relationships, collaborate, and share resources. By encouraging men to take action and support one another, the alliance fights against complacency and empowers men to be positive forces in the world.
