How Excruciating Pain and Depression Led An Atheist to RCIA | Catholic Christian Testimony

Anyone moved by the love of God wants to Dare Great Things For Christ!  But ironically most of our time is spent by doing little things.  When we look at the life of the Virgin Mary, the Queen of Heaven and Earth, we see that much of her life was spent doing little things.  Does this mean she wasn’t a leader?  Or in fact is leadership not best expressed by the way that we do the small things?  The life of Jesus and Mary in Nazareth before the beginning of his missionary life is an example of leadership in the little things.

DGT Episode 234 - Leadership And The Little Things - Mary Queen Of Leaders Part 6

Let’s be real: Following God is hard. Even after we have decided to commit our lives to Jesus, we often find ourselves going back to the things that enslave us.

We can’t keep doing that; God wants to forgive us and free us of our sins, but we have to be willing to leave it all behind. It’s not just a question of wanting it; it’s a question of our willingness to fight our past.

In this episode you’ll learn:
- Why we need to abandon everything from our past life to follow the Lord.
- What we can learn from Scripture about making our conversion authentic.
- How to stay committed to the changes in our life.
- And more!

What Are You Willing To Do?

As a devoted husband, father of nine, and President and Founder of CatholicVote, Brian Burch provides a leading voice of faith and reason for the modern world and a witness to the beauty of big families. CatholicVote is an advocacy organization that inspires lay Catholics in America to live out the truths of our faith in public life. The episode starts with Brian sharing incredible details about his large family (nine kids) and the surprise set of twins that his wife delivered at the conclusion of their first pregnancy. Brian reflects on the sanctifying grace of parenthood as he also prepares to become a grandfather in the months ahead. Brian talks about the work of Arthur Brooks and his book From Strength to Strength as he reflects on the second half of life, where wisdom and experience allow you to be a mentor to others. Brian also highlights that kids who grow up in homes where fathers go to church are dramatically more likely to stay active in their faith as adults. In his parting advice to men, Brian encourages men to rediscover their role as men by owning our involvement in supporting our children and wives as we live out the complementarity of our marriage. He also encourages us to keep laughing and modeling joy as we journey through life.

Universal Wisdom from Father of Nine (that also applies to YOU) | Brian Burch | Episode #080

Leaders want success.  In fact, our people count on us to provide success.  That’s why it’s important to know where we can fail.  Being able to identify the pitfalls along our road is sometimes as important as knowing where we are going.  In this series of five talks, we examine the five pitfalls that plague leaders and hinder our ability to succeed.  The first among these five is fatalism and I am so looking forward to breaking it down and opening it to Christ’s hope in your lives.

Is all love really love?

Why do so many men find themselves struggling with the same patterns their fathers struggled with: anger, distraction, work obsession, emotional distance, lust, even despite promising they’d be different? The truth is, fathers pass far more to their children than they realize. Not just beliefs or values, but habits, tone, priorities, and ways of relating that quietly shape the next generation.

In this episode of The Catholic Gentleman, John Heinen and Devin Schadt expose five hidden vices that fathers often pass on without ever intending to. They challenge men to see what their children are already learning from them, and how to break destructive cycles before they become generational.

The 5 Hidden Vices Fathers Pass to Their Children Without Even Realizing It

The Journey of a Deacon: From Academia to Politics
In this engaging conversation, Sean Lynn and Father Deacon Andrew Bennett explore themes of brotherhood, faith, and the role of young men in the church. They discuss Father Andrew&#39;s journey from academia to politics, his work in promoting religious freedom, and the challenges of pluralism and moral relativism in contemporary society. The dialogue emphasizes the importance of robust discussions, the role of St. Joseph as a model for fatherhood, and the need for Christians to actively engage in their communities.

A Dram with Fr Dcn Andrew Bennett

<h1>Sister Mary Michael joins us for a conversation on Catechesis of the Good Shepherd, 12 steps, and our Mission.</h1><h2>Summary: </h2>In this episode, we welcome back Sister Mary Michael, a seasoned Dominican Sister from the Saint Cecilia community in Nashville, to Oklahoma for a heartfelt conversation. With over 35 years as a religious sister, she shares her passion for the Catechesis of the Good Shepherd, her work with Franciscan University, and her unique ministry with men in recovery. At a recent men’s conference, she introduced the power of the 12 Steps—rooted in Alcoholics Anonymous but universally applicable—as a practical path to freedom from destructive habits, paired with insights from Saint Ignatius of Loyola. Sister Mary Michael’s warmth, humor, and wisdom shine as she encourages men to embrace their God-given mission and reorder their lives with grace.<h2>Key Topics: </h2>- Who She Is: A Dominican Sister with a doctorate in Catechesis of the Good Shepherd, Sister Mary Michael works with four-year-olds on Fridays, teaches at Franciscan University’s Catechetical Institute, and speaks at men’s conferences. - Catechesis of the Good Shepherd: A Montessori-inspired, Hebraic approach to children’s faith formation, rooted in the pedagogy of God and the Church’s heart. She’s written a book on it and sees it as a growing movement (highlighted in the 2020 Directory for Catechesis). - Men in Recovery: Inspired by landscaping help from men in recovery, she’s taken their stories on the road, blending the 12 Steps with Ignatian spirituality to address universal patterns of behavior—addictions big and small. - The 12 Steps: Sister explores their accessibility and power, starting with Step 1: admitting powerlessness over habits (e.g., anger, control, manipulation) and unmanageability in life. She connects this to grace and personal transformation. - Universal Application: From vanity to strong opinions, we’re all “recovering sinners.” The 12 Steps offer a fearless moral inventory (Step 4) and accountability (Step 5), helping anyone break free from vices. - Grace and Nature: The steps align with the Church’s heritage—practical like the 12 Steps or spiritual like Ignatius—showing how grace perfects our disordered nature. - Men’s Mission: She challenges men to reject Satan’s distortions, embrace their masculine genius, and take action to live out God’s purpose.<h2>Quotable Moments:</h2>- “Catechesis of the Good Shepherd is a Montessori Hebraic approach—it’s how God brings people to Himself.” - “I’m powerless over this, and my life’s unmanageable—that’s a grace right there.” - “I’m not taking that drink of criticism or gossip—it’s a shot of vodka to my soul.” - “God’s got a beautiful mission for you, and Satan’s not gonna leave you alone—so it’s time to do something about it.” <h2>Resources Mentioned: </h2>- Catechesis of the Good Shepherd: Learn more about this movement online or through Sister’s book. - The 12 Steps: Google them—read through and reflect on what challenges you. - Ignatian Spirituality: Explore how it aligns with the 12 Steps for deeper growth. <h2>Closing Thoughts: </h2>Sister Mary Michael’s eclectic life—from teaching kids to guiding men—offers a fresh take on recovery and holiness. Her practical, grace-filled approach makes this episode a must-listen for anyone seeking freedom and purpose. Thanks for joining us, Sister—God bless!

Excitement Over Pope Leo XIV</h3><ul><li>New Pope Announcement: The hosts are thrilled about the election of Pope Leo XIV, an American cardinal with a Tulsa connection, having served on the board of Cascia Hall, a Catholic preparatory school in Tulsa.</li><li>Historical Context: They discuss Pope Leo XIII, a significant influence (one host named a child after him), and note Leo XIV's choice of name as a nod to this legacy.</li><li>Conclave Insights: The quick election (likely on the fourth ballot) suggests strong consensus among the cardinals. The hosts avoid speculating on insider details due to the sacred nature of the conclave.</li><li>Fun Facts: Pope Leo XIV is a White Sox fan, not a Cubs fan, as initially reported. The hosts humorously claim him as "basically from Tulsa."</li><li>Prophetic Banter: A playful exchange about predicting the length of Leo XIV’s pontificate (jokingly suggested as 25 years) and his potential holiness.</li></ul> <h3>2. Personal Stories and Anniversary Celebration</h3><ul><li>David’s Anniversary Getaway: David shares how he and his wife, Haley, celebrated their 13th anniversary with a phone-free weekend in Mexico to focus on their time together.</li><li>Wedding Crashing in Mexico: David recounts crashing an Indian wedding at a resort in Mexico, joining the groom’s procession with a hype man, music, and dancing. He and Haley briefly joined the celebration before slipping away.</li><li>Hype Man Discussion: The hosts humorously explore the idea of having a hype man for life events, likening it to a boxer’s ring walk or a DJ hyping up a crowd.</li></ul> <h3>3. Eucharistic Miracle of Lanciano</h3><ul><li>Historical Miracle: David shares the story of a 12th-century Eucharistic miracle in Lanciano, Italy, where a doubting monk witnessed the host turn into flesh and the wine into blood during Mass.</li><li>Scientific Studies: In 1977, 1978, and 1987, tests confirmed the flesh as living heart tissue and the blood as human, preserved for over 1,200 years.</li><li>Spiritual Significance: The hosts emphasize the miracle’s importance for reinforcing belief in the Real Presence, while noting that every Mass holds the same ontological reality.</li><li>Pilgrimage Plans: The hosts invite listeners to join their October 2025 pilgrimage to Lanciano to celebrate Mass in the presence of this miracle.</li></ul> <h3>4. Discussion on Humility</h3><ul><li>Source Material: The hosts draw from Solid Virtue by Father Beleckias, S.J., to discuss the three degrees of humility.</li><li>First Degree: Complete obedience to divine law, refusing to commit mortal sin even if offered the world or threatened with danger.</li><li>Second Degree: Holy indifference to wealth, poverty, honor, or disgrace, refusing even venial sin for worldly gain. The hosts reflect on the challenge of achieving this in a materialistic world.</li><li>Third Degree: Actively choosing poverty, contempt, and disgrace to imitate Christ’s humility, as exemplified by saints like Francis and Katharine Drexel. The hosts acknowledge the difficulty of this level, especially for family men.</li><li>Practical Insights:</li><li>Humility is not thinking less of oneself but thinking rightly about oneself in relation to God and others.</li><li>Confidence and humility are intertwined, rooted in truth and trust in God’s will.</li><li>The hosts critique the popular C.S. Lewis quote (“Humility is not thinking less of yourself, but thinking of yourself less”) as incomplete, emphasizing self-reflection to align with God’s purpose.</li><li>Application for Listeners: Living in a state of grace, surrounding oneself with virtuous people, and choosing entertainment that aligns with spiritual goals are key to growing in humility.</li></ul> <h3>5. Pilgrimage Promotion</h3><ul><li>Select International Tours: The hosts promote their upcoming pilgrimage with Select International Tours, a long-time sponsor, encouraging listeners to join them in October 2025 for a Papal audience and Mass in Lanciano.</li><li>Details: Visit selectinternationaltours.com for more information on the pilgrimage.</li></ul> <h3>6. Whiskey Tasting</h3><ul><li>Drink of the Episode: The hosts enjoy an 11-year-old Coal Ila whiskey from the Scotch Malt Whisky Society.</li><li>Tasting Notes: Described as having big smoky notes with a sweet and spicy side. When diluted, it evokes “slurping an oyster with a smoky, zesty, and sweet chili dressing.”</li><li>Jim’s Rating: 3.89 on the “yummy scale.”</li></ul> <h2>Memorable Quotes</h2><ul><li>“Humility isn’t about not thinking about yourself, but it’s about thinking rightly about yourself.” – David Niles</li><li>“What we do in this life echoes in eternity.” – Adam Minahan (paraphrasing Gladiator)</li><li>“You can’t be holy if you’re not humble.” – Adam Minahan</li></ul> <h2>Call to Action</h2><ul><li>Join the Pilgrimage: Sign up for the October 2025 pilgrimage at selectinternationaltours.com to experience a Papal audience with Pope Leo XIV and Mass in Lanciano.</li><li>Explore Solid Virtue: Check out Solid Virtue by Father Beleckias, S.J., from Cor Iesu Press for deeper insights into humility.</li><li>Engage with the Show: Visit thecatholicmanshow.com for more episodes, resources, and to connect with the hosts.</li></ul> <h2>Sponsor</h2><ul><li>Select International Tours: Offering pilgrimages to holy sites worldwide for over 34 years.

Episode 182 - Jesus urges men to abide in Him so they might be fruitful and avoid Hell - April 28, 2024 - Jn 15:1-8

"Acquiring the Spirit of God is the TRUE AIM of our Christian Life, while prayer, fasting, alms-giving, and other good works done for Christ's sake are merely a means for acquiring the Spirit of God" (St. Seraphim of Sarov, On Acquisition of the Holy Spirit).
Referenced Scripture reading: <a href="https://bible.usccb.org/bible/readings/110820.cfm">Gospel of Matthew 25:1-13</a>.

Lit Lamps

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-prudence-against-imprudence/'>To see a written  version of the Litany of Prudence go to EveryCatholicMan.com.</a>

I’d like to share about the leadership of St. Paul.  This man’s incredible passion and drive changed the Church.  But like so many great men he had a past.  How did Paul deal with what he had done towards God and God’s people?  How did his past shape his future?  And what can we do when we realize that we too are guilty of doing wrong?  How does it affect our leadership?

EP 107 Q&A With Fr. Larry Richards - The Reason For Our Hope Foundation

Deacon Harold begins the Easter Season talking about new book from Msgr. Charles Pope called "Hell There Is" Also more from Soulful Psalm 62:11-13

Hell There Is

This is a hard saying; who can listen to it?’ But Jesus, knowing in himself that his disciples murmured at it, said to them, ‘Do you take offense at this?’ After this many of his disciples drew back and no longer went about with him. Deacon Harold dives into John 6:60-69 for more examination for Word of God Wednesday. Also looking at Soulful Psalm 114.

Eternal Life

“Those who keep God’s commandments remain in Him, and He in them, and the way we know that He remains in us is from the Spirit He gave us.”  Today Deacon Harold talks about how we grow and are fruitful the more we are connected to God. Plus. in the Soulful Psalms, we are looking into the back half of Psalm 139.

3 Reasons Why You Aren't Hitting Your Goals | Ep 279

What if the moment you built your life around&mdash;your career, your ambitions, your independence&mdash;was taken away in an instant? Dean faced that reality when he learned he was going blind. Mid-career, with a family relying on him, he spiraled into self-doubt and isolation. But instead of letting darkness consume him, he found new heroes, a deeper faith, and a mission to serve.
From learning how to navigate a world without sight to walking into a maximum-security prison to bring hope to the forgotten, his story is one of resilience, Brotherhood, and faith. If you&rsquo;ve ever felt lost, stuck, or alone, this conversation will challenge you to rethink what true strength looks like&mdash;and where to find it.

Any person of Christian faith who is in position of leadership will find it easy to speak about prayer.  Afterall, prayer is an essential part to the Christian life.  But it might be more challenging for us to understand its practical power.  Being men and women of action, we rely often on our own strength to make things happen.  Given that sense of responsibility what value does prayer have?  In this final talk in our seris on Joyful Leadership we explore the practical power of prayer in our lives.

Scripture speaks throughout of marriage and its 'mystery,' its institution and the meaning God has given it, its origin and its end, its various realizations throughout the history of salvation, the difficulties arising from sin and its renewal 'in the Lord' in the New Covenant of Christ and the Church.

Gentlemen, Good Friday is here. A day to pause and reflect on the sacrifice Jesus made for each of us. In this powerful episode of our Lenten Reflection Series with St. Joseph, I share a moving meditation from Mother Teresa titled I Thirst for You.

I dive into what this means for us as Catholic men: the call to reject sin, embrace His love, and live for heaven. My challenge to you? Get to adoration or a Good Friday service today. Spend time with the Lord who gave everything for you. Are you thirsting for Him like He thirsts for you? This episode will stir your soul and push you to act.

Several recent bestselling books have focused on the Enlightenment, including Stephen Pinker's <a href= "https://www.amazon.com/Enlightenment-Now-Science-Humanism-Progress/dp/0525427570/?tag=ththve-20"> Enlightenment Now: The Case for Reason, Science, Humanism, and Progress</a>. But what was the Enlightenment, and how should we view its effects? Bishop Barron offers his take today.

WOF 182: What was the Enlightenment?

This is something of a special edition. This guest was on the show before, more than a year-and-a-half ago, back on Episode 190 in September 2022. He is a professor and Kule Chair at St. Joseph's College, a Catholic college at the University of Alberta, in Edmonton, Canada. And since we met him then – and you can go back and hear his story on that episode – this conversation instead gives us all the chance to learn all about a fascinating individual from the world of sports and our Catholic faith, because this guest just last month had a book come out that is a Number 1 New Release on Amazon in Canadian Historical Biographies, a book called, "Hockey Priest: Father David Bauer and the Spirit of the Canadian Game," published by The Catholic University of America Press.
