That Man is You! is about a vision ... that you experience. Normally, we have the ability to lead you through it, but in this mini-series, we must jump right in!  What does it mean to be a man?

Christ was proclaimed “the man” at precisely the moment that he offered his life for his bride. We must carefully consider this moment. It will teach us much about the heart of a man.

The Church is purified in the water flowing from Christ’s wounded heart. It is a heart that has a consuming thirst for an encounter with God the Father. This is the light shining on manhood for all men including the first man.

To be a man means embracing the sacrifice asked by God the Father for the sake of the bride. When we do so, our heart becomes a channel for grace that purifies and gives life to the bride. Living this calling has been a challenge “from the beginning.”

Will you bring That Man is You! to your parish to touch countless lives?  To start a TMIY program at your local parish or to find one in your area: Go to www.thatmanisyou.org or contact us at info@paradisusdei.org.

How much authority does the pope have and where does that authority come from? Can the pope change doctrine if he feels like doing so? How does the Church play into these decisions? And what is the levels of authority in different documents from the Vatican? We discuss this and more with our friend, Suan Sonna.

&nbsp;
<blockquote>
<div>March 2nd is Ash Wednesday, and over a billion people will start living different in some way. Maybe giving up chocolate or alcohol, or whatever.</div>
For a lot of Catholics, Lent is a time of finding the easiest way to “give something up”. But, at the end of those 40 days, did that sacrifice really make a difference?

This year, there’s a new opportunity out there specifically for men that will actually help you grow closer to God and become a better man.

You’ve heard me talk about Exodus 90 — but let me tell you about Exodus Lent: a 40-day journey that will challenge you to dig a little deeper this year.

If your first reaction is: “I’m absolutely not taking cold showers” well you’re in luck: men who take on the Exodus Lent get to take warm showers, drink alcohol, and — when you’re with others — watch TV and sports. But don’t be fooled, this will still be a challenging 40 days of preparation for living the Christian life, for the rest of your life.

Here’s how it works:

First — Over the 40 days of Lent, men commit to daily prayer, setting aside a minimum of 20 minutes to spend with the Lord. Each day includes a scripture reading and reflection written to help men better understand, grow in, and live virtue.

Second — More than just giving up chocolate, men take up a range of disciplines and sacrifices for the season of Lent. Sweets, snacks, social media, are all gone.

Third — Men commit to a fraternity of 5-7 men. Each week, the fraternity meets to pray together, check in, hold each other accountable and encourage one another.

On Easter Sunday, you’ll walk away with a new and lasting understanding of what it means to live the full Christian life. Chocolate bunnies and all.

7 Lost Catholic Traditions And Why We Need To Bring Them Back

Pull up a barstool with me and Shane Page, a former United Methodist pastor, as he tells us the story of his conversion to Catholicism! You don't want to miss a moment of his fascinating journey, including: - How working at Chili's led to a "born again" experience. - The process of becoming a Methodist pastor. (It took 14 years!) - Two things that happened in seminary that started his path to Catholicism. - Doing a Marian consecration as a Protestant. - The hardest part about finally stepping down as a pastor. <a href="https://pints.mattfradd.com/pwa-confessions-signup/">Sign up for my free course on St. Augustine's "Confessions"!</a> SPONSORS Hallow: <a href="http://hallow.app/mattfradd">http://hallow.app/mattfradd</a> STRIVE: <a href="https://www.strive21.com/">https://www.strive21.com/</a> Ethos Logos: <a href="https://www.elinvestments.net/pints">https://www.elinvestments.net/pints</a> GIVING Patreon or Directly: <a href="https://pintswithaquinas.com/support/">https://pintswithaquinas.com/support/ </a> This show (and all the plans we have in store) wouldn't be possible without you.

Evangelizing Online and What AI Will Never Replace (Fr. Gregory Pine) | Ep. 519

In this episode, Victor Adams and I talk about PURPOSE. It’s all too easy for our daily lives to feel like an endless cycle of repetition. So we try to find things to give us pleasure and avoid a feeling of emptiness. The problem is, we look to everything else besides the one person who can truly give us purpose.

Psalm 57:2 tells us that God is the one who fulfills his purpose for each one of us. If we want to find the purpose we’re looking for in life, we have to set aside all the other things we turn to and start talking and listening to God.

In this episode, we learn that:
- When you don’t have a purpose, life becomes all about your feelings.
- Lack of purpose is the root of addictions and other issues.
- There’s a longing in yourself that only God can fulfill.

Holy Week Special

It goes without saying that those in leadership want to lead well, but what are the elements that make a leadership effective, good, and even pleasing to God.  Without a doubt St. Thomas Aquinas in his Summa Theologica gives us some valuable insights when he talks about how God leads the world.  If our leadership could be patterned on God’s we’d be sure to be doing something right.  In this second of my six part series, I focus on how good leadership makes the people who follow us more fulfilled in who they are.

Catholicism and Tattoos | Davis Scott | Episode #120

One of the most common struggles that people have is passing from planning into action.  We all know what we should be doing, but actually doing it can seem an insurmountable hurdle.  How do we pass from having good intentions to actually having good actions?  Every leader has to do this.  St. Thomas Aquinas gives us the key.  He says the fear of risk can be overcome by love and by the knowledge of what is right.  Putting this into practice can be the difference between failure and success.

Juan Diego Podcaster | José Manuel De Urquidi | Episode #089

Fr. David Aufiero grew up in a troubled home, and after losing his father and grandmother, he reluctantly met with a local priest to talk through his difficulties. That one conversation led him to become the man he is today.

Fr. David knows well the struggles that men face and that the only way to overcome them is to bring the things we hide in the dark into the light. But it’s hard for men to open up and be vulnerable. How do you even begin to reach a whole parish?

That's when he came across Just a Guy in The Pew. We were able to provide him with the tools and resources to get started, and even go in person to his parish to help launch this group for men. Now, more than a year later, Fr. David testifies to the positive effects that come from creating a space for men to support and challenge each other to grow in holiness.

Join John and Fr. David this week as they talk about the fruits and transformations they have seen firsthand from developing strong men’s groups.

Msgr James Shea Shares AMAZING Insights On Prayer

Most Catholic men talk about trusting God, but very few surrender the one area that reveals the truth: their generosity. In this episode, Jacob Cokely joins me to confront a battlefield most men avoid. His new book, <a href="https://www.amazon.com/Kingdom-Generosity-Discovering-Secret-Abundant/dp/1969816007/ref=tmm_hrd_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&amp;dib_tag=se&amp;dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.CGv1tDhPDbsXOY8FBH07aQ.ufVpfLd4x-CpJSTajz0b0E3ncmjD0D5rzjs8_HHWvLo&amp;qid=1763082712&amp;sr=8-1" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Kingdom Generosity: Discovering the Secret to the Abundant Life</a>, calls men out of comfort, out of passive belief, and into the dangerous, countercultural obedience that Jesus demands.Jacob shares how God confronted him twelve years ago and told him to give away everything he had. He only had five hundred dollars to his name. He gave it away. Nothing happened at first. No rewards. No blessings. No instant turnaround. But that step launched a life of radical trust, radical risk, and radical freedom. Jacob shows how generosity is far bigger than finances. It is your time, your gifts, your talents, your attention, and your willingness to act when God prompts you. He reminds us that Jesus Himself is the model of generosity as the one who became poor so we could become rich in grace.At the end of the episode, I issue a direct challenge to every man listening: Take one uncomfortable step of generosity this week. Not talk. Not theory. Action. This is spiritual warfare, and the enemy uses fear, scarcity, and self-preservation to keep men small. Break that chain.For men serious about reclaiming their leadership, rebuilding trust in God, and stepping into authentic Catholic manhood, this conversation is essential.Products and Resources Mentioned• <a href="https://www.amazon.com/Kingdom-Generosity-Discovering-Secret-Abundant/dp/1969816007/ref=tmm_hrd_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&amp;dib_tag=se&amp;dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.CGv1tDhPDbsXOY8FBH07aQ.ufVpfLd4x-CpJSTajz0b0E3ncmjD0D5rzjs8_HHWvLo&amp;qid=1763082712&amp;sr=8-1" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Kingdom Generosity</a> by Jacob Cokely (Amazon) • <a href="https://kingdomgenerosity.podia.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Free 3-Day Devotional </a>— KingdomGenerosity.Podia.comThree Powerful Quotes From the Transcript<ol><li>“God has something for you.

Ep 15 - The Communion of Saints

There are many sources of skepticism about God's unconditional love. We live in a society of Murphy's Law, where people presume that all good news is simply too good to be true. While the existence of God and the soul are challenging enough to a habitually skeptical culture, add the concept of "love" and the skepticism intensifies. But people who recognize the scientific or philosophical evidence for the existence of a Creator, Father Spitzer draws a necessary connection between an intelligent Creator and a loving God
The choice and the goal both lie before us. God calls us to a relationship of unconditional love, a transcendent destiny of eternal life, but we are free to choose. We must contend with human and spiritual evil, but through prayer we can draw strength from God. Are you ready to put your faith and trust totally in him?

Transcendence: Is Unconditional Love Real?

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?
