Marriage

Today we chat to Thomas about Limbo. What is it? Are Catholics bound to believe in it? If it does exist what do the souls there experience? --- Whether those souls which depart with original sin alone, suffer from a bodily fire, and are punished by fire? Gregory Nazianzen in his fortieth sermon, which is entitled On Holy Baptism, distinguishes three classes of unbaptized persons: those namely who refuse to be baptized, those who through neglect have put off being baptized until the end of life and have been surprised by sudden death, and those who, like infants, have failed to receive it through no fault of theirs. Of the first he says that they will be punished not only for their other sins, but also for their contempt of Baptism; of the second, that they will be punished, though less severely than the first, for having neglected it; and of the last he says that "a just and eternal Judge will consign them neither to heavenly glory nor to the eternal pains of hell, for although they have not been signed with Baptism, they are without wickedness and malice, and have suffered rather than caused their loss of Baptism." He also gives the reason why, although they do not reach the glory of heaven, they do not therefore suffer the eternal punishment suffered by the damned: "Because there is a mean between the two, since he who deserves not honor and glory is not for that reason worthy of punishment, and on the other hand he who is not deserving of punishment is not for that reason worthy of glory and honor" [...] Hence, as his guilt did not result from an action of his own, even so neither should he be punished by suffering himself, but only by losing that which his nature was unable to obtain. On the other hand, those who are under sentence for original sin will suffer no loss whatever in other kinds of perfection and goodness which are consequent upon human nature ST. Appendix I, I, I. Whether these same souls suffer spiritual affliction on account of the state in which they are? right reason does not allow one to be disturbed on account of what one was unable to avoid; hence Seneca proves (Ep. lxxxv, and De ira ii, 6) that "a wise man is not disturbed." Now in these children there is right reason deflected by no actual sin. Therefore they will not be disturbed for that they undergo this punishment which they could nowise avoid. [...] Now in these children there is right reason deflected by no actual sin. Therefore they will not be disturbed [...] [T]he pain of punishment corresponds to the pleasure of sin; wherefore, since original sin is void of pleasure, its punishment is free of all pain. [...] [I]f one is guided by right reason one does not grieve through being deprived of what is beyond one's power to obtain, but only through lack of that which, in some way, one is capable of obtaining. Thus no wise man grieves for being unable to fly like a bird, or for that he is not a king or an emperor, since these things are not due to him; whereas he would grieve if he lacked that to which he had some kind of claim [...] Hence they will nowise grieve for being deprived of the divine vision; nay, rather will they rejoice for that they will have a large share of God's goodness and their own natural perfections. ST. Appendix I, 2.

64: Does the Church teach that Limbo is a real place?

Today it’s fashionable to separate the Church from society.  We claim that the legitimate separation of Church from state means that the state should proceed without any influence from the Church.  The Church, however, has a different opinion.  How are we to evaluate of the Catholic Church’s contribution to our society?  What impact can the world really expect from the Christian message?  What’s the value of the culture that we’re proposing?  All these question are central to the discussion about how Jesus raises us up to lead our culture today.

Hiking The Via Alpina and Other Life Events! w/ Fr. Gregory Pine, O.P.

"Where your treasure is, there also will your heart be." Matthew 6:21

Join John and Victor in the Lenten journey on the 7 Deadly Sins this week as they discuss the sin of Greed. Our possessions, time, and talents are gifts from the Lord and how often we allow our attachments to these things to control us and rob us of our joy and living a life of freedom with the Lord. Hoard not the things of the world, but virtue, prayer, time with Him. How do we combat greed? Charity. Generosity. Seeing everything as a gift. "The greedy man is really not rich, but poor. He does not control his money but is controlled by it. He does not possess his wealth but is possessed by it. He may have many things, yet for him he has all too little." ~ St. Anthony of Padua 

Scripture passages to pray with:
-1 Timothy 6:10
-Matthew 6:19-21
-Luke 12:16-34

In this episode: 
-Letting go of fear and grasping for possessions and turning in trust to the Lord
-Not letting our possessions possess us
-"Everything is disappointing except the Redemptive Love of our Lord." ~ Archbishop Fulton Sheen 
-No one can serve two masters...you cannot serve God and money (Matthew 6:24)

Lenten Series- Your Whole Heart Pt.4 - Greed

Anyone who has achieved any level of success in their life knows that much of their success is a result of hard work.  And yet at the same time hard work is hard to do.  Many people don’t see the importance of hard work in forming the character of a leader and yet when Christ formed his twelve apostles he shared the labors of evangelization with them.  And he invited his apostles to embrace labor as a part of their life.  How did this help form his apostles to be the bold leaders they would need to be and what role does hard work play in our life as leaders today.

107: How do we know stuff (Thomas' epistemology), with Fr. Damian Ference

Recording on the move along the Adriatic, the guys sit down in Italy with their spiritual guide and friend Fr. Stuart Crevecour to talk about Eucharistic adoration—what it is, why it matters, and how to begin. From stories of Eucharistic miracles in Cascia and Orvieto to practical advice for dads bringing kids to the chapel, this episode explores how adoration “holds a moment of the Mass” so Christ can transform our week. Along the way: pilgrimage anecdotes, incorrupt saints, and a few dad-joke detours.<h2>Segment Guide</h2>On the Road (and Sea): Why This Episode Is DifferentFirst-ever episode recorded in transit—pilgrimage vibes, College GameDay energy, and what a Jubilee year in Italy feels like.Eucharistic Miracles: From Casual Irreverence to Deep ConversionThe bleeding breviary in Cascia and the miracle preserved in Orvieto become cautionary tales—and catalysts—for reverence and faith.What Adoration Is (and Isn’t)Fr. Stuart offers a simple frame: adoration as a moment of the Mass held in contemplation—the elevation “stretched” so we can gaze and be changed.Does It Really Do Anything? Why GoFrom “just try it” to “I can’t live without my hour,” we hear how steady time before the monstrance re-centers a life and renews prayer.Awkward at First: How to Start a Holy HourBring a rosary or a good spiritual book. Expect silence to feel long. Keep going. Over time, conversation gives way to presence.Spiritual Communion: When You Can’t ReceiveMaking a spiritual communion at home or in church keeps us oriented toward the tabernacle—especially helpful in seasons of waiting or constraint.Benediction: A Different Kind of BlessingWhy the blessing at the end of adoration is unique: you’re being blessed by Christ himself, truly present in the Host.Family Adoration (Without the Panic)Practical ideas: parish “family holy hours,” short come-and-go windows, and training kids gently in reverence (yes, even page-turning).If Your Parish Doesn’t Have AdorationHow to ask your pastor for a weekly hour or occasional exposition—and ways laity can help make it happen.From Medieval Piety to Today’s RenewalHow devotion blossomed after Corpus Christi and grew again in recent decades—feeding vocations, parish life, and personal holiness.<h2>Key Takeaways</h2><ul><li>Adoration deepens Communion. It doesn’t replace the Mass; it disposes us to receive the Eucharist more fruitfully.</li><li>Start small, stay steady. Twenty minutes grows into an hour; over time, you won’t want to miss it.</li><li>Bring the kids. Create kid-friendly windows or family hours; let children encounter Jesus and learn chapel habits gradually.</li><li>Spiritual communion matters. If you can’t receive sacramentally, orient yourself to the tabernacle and keep showing up.</li><li>Benediction blesses uniquely. The blessing is given with Christ himself, not merely by the priest.</li></ul> <h2>Memorable Lines</h2><ul><li>“Adoration is a moment of the Mass held in contemplation.”</li><li>“You can’t outgive the Lord—show up and let Him do the work.”</li><li>“Hang out with Jesus often; we become like the people we’re with.”</li><li>“Correct the [Eucharistic] abuses, but don’t throw out the baby with the bathwater.”</li></ul> <h2>How to Begin a Holy Hour (Simple Plan)</h2><ol><li>Arrive and acknowledge: a slow Sign of the Cross; “Lord, I’m here.”</li><li>Read briefly (5–10 min): a Gospel passage or trusted spiritual classic.</li><li>Pray a decade or the whole Rosary.</li><li>Rest in silence: “I look at Him and He looks at me.”</li><li>Finish with gratitude and one concrete resolution for the week.</li></ol> <h2>Resources &amp; Places Mentioned</h2><ul><li>Basilica of St. Rita of Cascia (Eucharistic miracle)</li><li>Orvieto (miracle tied to the Feast of Corpus Christi)</li><li>Sacré-Cœur, Paris (longstanding perpetual adoration)</li><li>St. Thomas Aquinas (Eucharistic hymns for Corpus Christi)</li><li>St. John Vianney (on simple adoration)</li><li>St. John Paul II (modern renewal of adoration)</li><li>St. Peter Julian Eymard (19th-century apostle of the Eucharist)</li></ul> <h2>For Dads &amp; Grandfathers</h2><ul><li>Keep expectations age-appropriate. Five or ten minutes is a win.</li><li>Prep gently before you enter; debrief after with hot chocolate or a donut.</li><li>Rotate one-on-one holy hours so each child sees Dad pray</li></ul> <h2>Listener Challenge</h2>Commit to one adoration visit this week. If your parish lacks exposition, pray before the tabernacle—or make a daily spiritual communion at home, oriented toward your parish church.

The Extraordinary CALL to Vocation | Fr. Fergal O'Duill LC | Episode #052

There’s a story where a father tells his son that there are two wolves fighting inside him, one fighting for good and one for evil. The son asks “which one will win?” The answer is “whichever one you feed.”

I think we are usually torn between doing our own will and doing the Lord’s, and trying to decide whether we will work for our own glory or God’s. Fortunately, the Scriptures have some things to say about that. Victor and I talked about a great example from the Old Testament: King David and King Saul.

The NEW Approach to Education (Steven Rummelsburg) | Ep. 306

One of the devil’s greatest weapons is the breakdown of the family unit. If that’s true, it certainly feels like he is in his workshop honing the edges of his sword by destroying marriages.Put simply, the Catholic Church does not permit divorce. Just because the government hands you a piece of paper does not mean that you and your spouse aren’t one in the eyes of God. “What God has brought together, let no man separate” (Matthew 19:6).Today we are joined by Wayne Ottenbreit, a marriage and fa...

Shayne Smith CONVERTS to Catholicism | Ep. 445

This week John is joined by one of his favorite brothers in Christ, fellow evangelist Hector Molina. John and Hector have been friends for many years now and are finally getting a chance to meet in studio to talk about their mutual love of the Scriptures.  Hector is a brilliant evangelist with a story, just like the rest of us, that led him to a relationship with Christ and a deep love of Scripture. Listen in this week as Hector shares his journey to the faith, his love of biblical typology, and the profound place love of the Scriptures should hold in each of our lives.

Love Of The Scriptures With Hector Molina

The Christian life was never meant to be lived alone.

In this episode, John and Victor talk about the deep need we all have for spiritual friendships—and why trying to follow Jesus without community leaves us vulnerable to isolation, temptation, and burnout.

They share personal stories of how God used brotherhood to strengthen them in their darkest moments, and how real transformation happens when we walk with others who know us, challenge us, and love us enough to tell us the truth. Because, we really do need each other.

You weren’t meant to carry it all alone. If you’ve been going through the motions or trying to handle everything yourself, this episode is your invitation to open up, reach out, and walk together.

We Need Each Other

Of the many saints we could hope to emulate, Pope John Paul II stands apart for his excellence in leadership.  Not only was he Pope of the Catholic Church at a very difficult time in church and world history but his twenty-six year long pontificate was marked by incredible achievements, changes, and unique global impact.  In this third of our series on Leadership Lessons From The Saints we unpack several lessons from the life and teachings of this master of humanity.

DGT Episode 285 - The Humanity Of John Paul II - Leadership Lessons From The Saints Part 3

In this bonus episode, we have a special interview with Fr. Donald Calloway where we discuss:  

 - St. Joseph was a heroic man who defended Mary and Jesus 
 - St. Joseph probably wasn’t an old man 
 - You can learn a lot about St. Joseph by looking at Jesus

Last week Dare Great Things passed a milestone.  We issued our two hundred and first episode.  Our past episodes have been an amazing journey through stories and documents and lives of the saints that have inspired us.  I’m really excited to be able to start something new now.  Starting with Episode 202 we will begin to present the Saint John Leadership Network’s own proper teaching about leadership.  We call it AUDEO and I am honored to share it with you.  In today’s episode I give an overview of this unique Catholic take on leadership.

Is the Eucharist a SYMBOL?! | Fr. Gregory Pine, O.P.

Before we do anything it is important to stop and plan how we are going to do it.  Afterall, failing to plan is planning to fail.  Part of this planning includes looking at where we could actually falter along the way.  And understanding the reasons we fail can become a big reason why we succeed.  In this fourth talk of the series we look at one of the biggest reasons we fail: fatigue, burnout, and being frustrated along the way.

Is Your Schedule KILLING Your Relationships?! | Fr. Gregory Pine, O.P.

Nobody needs “worry” explained to them. We have all felt it. We all know what it means to be stressed. What we do need to learn is how to fixate on Jesus and the present moment, rather than be paralyzed by circumstances we cannot control. The devil tries to pull us into the future and the past, but “the cards are going to fall the way they are ordained to fall.” So why do we worry?

What it Takes to be a Catholic Leader

Episode OverviewJoin hosts David Niles and Adam Minahan on The Catholic Man Show as they welcome Dr. Kent Lasnoski, a theology professor and key figure in founding <a href="https://www.sandamianotrades.org/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">San Damiano College for the Trades</a>. In this lively episode, recorded with David’s godson Luke present for the first time, the trio explores the dignity of work, the role of masculinity in Catholic life, and the interplay of work, leisure, and virtue. From ultimate Frisbee to speculative theology about the Garden of Eden, this episode blends humor, faith, and deep insights into living as a Catholic man.Key Themes and Discussions<ul><li>Masculinity and Feats of Strength: The episode kicks off with a lighthearted recount of an impromptu ultimate Frisbee game, sparking a discussion on how friendly competitions—like stone-throwing or wiffle ball derbies—foster community and allow men to embrace their God-given strength. Dr. Lasnoski highlights how such activities echo the heroic spirit of figures like King David, who boasted of slaying bears and lions.</li><li>The Dignity of Work: Drawing from Genesis and Pope St. John Paul II’s <a href="https://www.vatican.va/content/john-paul-ii/en/encyclicals/documents/hf_jp-ii_enc_14091981_laborem-exercens.html" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Laborem Exercens</a>, Dr. Lasnoski explains work as a fundamental human vocation to imitate God’s creative act. Work involves earning daily bread, extending dominion over creation, and elevating culture toward God. The subjective element—who performs the work—gives it value, distinguishing human labor from robotic tasks.</li><li>Work Before and After the Fall: The hosts dive into speculative theology, debating whether work existed before the Fall. Dr. Lasnoski argues that Adam’s role to “tend and till” the Garden was work, but without the toil introduced by sin. Post-Fall, work became punitive due to man’s interior disorder, yet it retains a redemptive quality through participation in Christ’s restoration of creation.</li><li>Home as a Place of Production: Dr. Lasnoski challenges the modern view of the home as merely a place of consumption (e.g., entertainment, food). Historically, homes were productive spaces where men and women collaborated in family economies. He encourages Catholics to see the home as a domestic church, fostering virtue and fruitfulness in alignment with God’s plan.</li><li>Work, Leisure, and Contemplation: Referencing Josef Pieper, the discussion distinguishes work (done for extrinsic goods) from leisure (done for its own sake, touching the foundation of reality). Leisure prepares the soul for contemplation and union with God, while a consumerist mindset can hinder true rest. The hosts also explore whether prayer or routine tasks like tying shoes qualify as work.</li><li>Men’s and Women’s Roles in Work: Dr. Lasnoski reflects on the complementary roles of men and women in work, rooted in their biological and spiritual natures. Women’s work often involves nurturing and making a home, while men’s work is more extroverted, pouring themselves out to make creation fruitful, as seen in Genesis and John Paul II’s Theology of the Body.</li><li>Retirement and Multigenerational Living: The modern concept of retirement—focused on leisure without purpose—can lead to a loss of meaning. Dr. Lasnoski advocates for a retirement that continues giving oneself through service, like volunteering or mentoring. He also champions multigenerational households as a gift, fulfilling the biblical call to honor parents and enrich family life.</li><li>San Damiano College for the Trades: Dr. Lasnoski shares the mission of San Damiano College, a three-year program integrating trade skills, a Great Books education, and spiritual formation. Students graduate debt-free by working through the program, learning to live as virtuous men who rebuild the Church through skilled labor and faith.</li></ul> Featured Guest<ul><li>Dr. Kent Lasnoski: Theology professor, author of Vocation to Virtue and Thirty Days with Married Saints, and a founding member of San Damiano College for the Trades in Springfield, Illinois. His work focuses on integrating faith, work, and family life for Catholic men and women.</li></ul> Action Items for Listeners<ol><li>Embrace Masculine Community: Organize or participate in friendly competitions (e.g., sports, feats of strength) to build fraternity and celebrate God-given masculinity.</li><li>Reclaim the Home as Productive: Reflect on how your home can be a place of virtue and productivity, not just consumption.

Embracing the Dignity of Work and Virtue with Dr. Kent Lasnoski

Objection 1. It seems that God does not exist; because if one of two contraries be infinite, the other would be altogether destroyed. But the word "God" means that He is infinite goodness. If, therefore, God existed, there would be no evil discoverable; but there is evil in the world. Therefore God does not exist. Reply to Objection 1. As Augustine says (Enchiridion xi): "Since God is the highest good, He would not allow any evil to exist in His works, unless His omnipotence and goodness were such as to bring good even out of evil." This is part of the infinite goodness of God, that He should allow evil to exist, and out of it produce good.

A Neuroscientist Talks Deliverance and Demons

Without a doubt the life of St. Paul is one of the best places to study leadership in The New Testament.  Not only is his life an example of leadership, but in his first and second letters to Timothy St. Paul exposes his heart.  He writes to his beloved son, Timothy, whom he has formed in the faith, a letter of encouragement to go all the way to the end to mee the demands of leading God’s people.  His letter gives us many wonderful insights, especially in how to rekindle the fire.

LOTR, Family Life, and Ring-Tailed Lemurs (Bill Donaghy) | Ep. 358

Happy New Year! At least that's what we all want it to be. Many of us, though, fail in our resolutions and quit before we even get started. Ever wonder why? We listen to the wrong voice, that's why. The one that shows up to convict you of your mistakes and throws your past failures in your face. That voice is the voice of the Evil One. So how do we move past it and start moving forward? By "forgetting what lies behind and straining forward to what lies ahead." ( Phil 3:13) Listen in this week as John and Victor turn to St. Paul, St Augustine, and Our Lord Jesus Christ for their advice on how to live in the present and look forward to the new year with hope. 

In this episode, John and Victor discuss:

- Spiritual Warfare
- Listening to the right voice
 - What St. Paul, St Augustine, and Jesus have to say about the New Year
- 4 steps to take to win the battle and move forward with courage in your resolutions

Forgetting What Lies Behind

Reform was founded and started by Jackie. After years of tireless striving, stress, and compromised health as a result of her lifestyle, Jackie found her identity, healing, and wholeness in God. She found a more simple way; a way centered in faith, wellness, and freedom. Now, she is devoted to helping others find the same. Combining her passions of wellness, faith, and education, Jackie works with clients locally and around the world. Along the way, she discovered that one of her greatest passions was helping others build stronger connections to themselves, their health, and their faith through wellness at every level: physical, emotional and spiritual.

Wellness, Prayer, Nutrition, and Health Culture (Jackie Mulligan) | Ep. 463

It isn’t a surprise to anyone that life comes with a lot of challenges. In fact, there are a lot of reasons men feel tempted to give up hope, whether it’s struggling with habitual sin, difficulty in their marriage, or financial problems. That’s why I invited Deacon Jeff into the studio this week to talk about hope!

In this episode, you’ll learn:
 - How to put your hope in Jesus Christ rather than in other things like money or security.
 - How to LIVE a life of hope in Jesus Christ, instead of just saying you have hope in Him.
 - How to fight despair when troubles come your way.
 - How hope can only come when you are also living with faith and love.
 - And more!

The Struggle With Hope

I’m honored to have the opportunity to host one of my favorite apologists and theologians, Dr. Ralph Martin. Dr. Martin leads Renewal Ministries and has done lots of work helping everyday Catholics. We discuss sin, scandal, and how the faithful should respond to the problems in the Church.

His book "A Church in Crisis" can be found here: https://www.amazon.com/Church-Crisis-Pathways-Forward/dp/164585048X/ref=sr_1_1

In this episode you’ll learn:
- Some of the problems the Church is facing in the 21st century.
- How to have faith despite the issues in the Church.
- Why the Lord may be allowing His Church to suffer.
- Why we need to focus on loving our neighbor AND telling the truth.
- And more!

Did Jesus need to be Redeemed? - Fr. Gregory Pine, O.P.

Fr. Dave and Dcn. Bob talk about the World Series, the NBA (go Cavs!), Halloween, and the mid-term elections. They conclude their study of Philippians by reflecting on what it means to do all things “through him who gives me strength” (Phil. 4:13).

Philippians 4:10-23

Author, professor, and speaker, Ralph Martin joined John in the studio for a thought-provoking conversation! From fears to worthiness to lies that men believe, these two share the (capital T) Truth!

- Ralph's own experience of repentance and conversion
- The need to open ourselves up to the Holy Spirit. 
- Jesus is inviting us to mass, even though we may be asleep. 
- The sugarcoating needs to stop and consequences are REAL!

An Interview with Fr. Donald Calloway | Ep. 329

Today we respond to an image of masculinity that has been adopted and admired by millions of men today but is toxic to their lives as well as society.

John and Devin are joined by a phenomenal guest and professional martial arts instructor, Jim O'Day, to discuss how this version of masculinity destroys men's lives and keeps them trapped in boyhood.In addition, we also answer a listener's question about dating a non-Catholic and what advice we have for him.Jim O'Day's Ministry - Integrity Restored - https://integrityrestored.com🔴 🔴 Watch the extended addition, all 1 h 40 mins of episode 154 on Catholic Gentleman Plus where we go into oncoming pornography and finding true purpose in life: https://catholicgentlemanplus.com✅ We love to answer questions on the show.

Paul talked about Zig Ziglar and Jason Evert, and Nick mentioned Kevin Carroll’s talk on the red rubber ball. On Blessed are the Joke Makers, the Dudes embody “the boss” to address the prompt, “I’m a bad Catholic because of…” Michael reflects on his speaking career and his joy when sharing the stage with his daughter Ally. On the TBD question of the day, Michael and Dudes each answer the question, “What app or resource do you use to assist in your spiritual journey?” On Reverse Simpsons, the dudes must attempt new lyrics to The BeatiDudes theme song.

Start with Laughter, End with Hope | Michael Hoffman | Episode #073

There are many aspects about the Christian faith which we could find surprising.  Not everything that God does is immediately self evident to us.  But something that never ceases to amaze me is that God insists that we take action.  Not only does he say, “Do not be afraid,” but He doesn’t let us off the hook.  Leaders have to make decisions constantly and engage themselves in operations that can sometimes be risky.  Why does God do this?  And where can we find the courage to embrace the risk and still dare the deed?

Being afraid is a normal response in front of things that are threatening to us.  The problem is not that we have fear – the question is whether or not we’ll allow that fear to become a catalyst for something greater, for courage, or whether we will allow fear to paralyze us.  When Christ formed his apostles he taught them to stare down there fears and he did this by facing everything before them.  Christ led his leaders through the valleys that they would have to face themselves and he does so for us today as well.

YOU Need to Be More Like a MONK! | Mthr Natalia

Tune into In Layman's Terms with co-hosts John Soukup and Bob Sullivan, a show dedicated to empowering Catholic men to live with mission, purpose, and faith. Drawing inspiration from Bob's popular column in the Southern Nebraska Register, each episode dives deep into topics that shape a man's spiritual journey&mdash;virtue, brotherhood, sacrifice, prayer, and the ongoing spiritual battle. With thought-provoking discussions and expert guests, this program is a source of strength and inspiration for men striving to lead meaningful, faith-filled lives&mdash;and for the people who support and love them.

ILT Ep18 Doug Reinks-Regnum Christi

Raised in a strict King James-only, Independent Fundamental Baptist household and trained in Christian apologetics, this Southern Baptist pastor was taught that Catholicism was not just wrong—it was dangerous. But everything began to shift when he took his own advice: go to the source.What started as an effort to refute Catholic doctrine turned into a life-changing encounter with the truth of the Eucharist, the Sacraments, the early Church, and the beauty of the Mass.“I didn’t like it. I didn’t want it to be true. But I couldn’t deny it anymore.”From “Baptism now saves you” to the testimony of the Saints, this is the gripping story of a man who lost everything—his ministry, his comfort zone, his certainty—and found the fullness of truth.🙏 Watch as he shares how Scripture, study, and the surprising power of the Mass changed his life forever.#Catholic #Protestant #testimony #CatholicConvert #FormerBaptistPastor #WhyImCatholic #ChristianApologetics #BaptismRegenerates #KJVOnly #FromFundamentalistToCatholic #TheMassChangedMe #CatholicTruth ▶To support this channel, visit eddietrask.com/sponsorship🔔 SUBSCRIBE FOR MORE CONVERSION STORIES: @CatholicReCon Conversion stories are shared weekly.

From Baptist Pastor to Catholic: The Conversion He Never Wanted

Here's something you can count on: When you step away from the world, the flesh, and the devil, they’re going to want you back. We just finished our series on True Transformation, and the sort of radical changes to our lives that happen when we grow closer to the Holy Spirit through fasting, prayer, and the Sacraments. Those changes are sure to draw the enemy's attention. Our growth in holiness angers the devil, and he'll do whatever he can to try and slip you up. But no matter how hard he might try, we don't need to fear him or anything he throws at us. The truth is that the devil has no authority over us — unless we give it to him.

Join John and Victor in the pew this week as they talk about the realities of spiritual warfare and how to avoid dancing with the devil.

Welcome to Leadership Where It Matters Most w/ Brett Powell

In this episode, James sits down with Ryan Flaherty, a local from Ada, MI who attends St. Robert's of Newminster parish. Ryan is a husband and father of two and is passionate about all things spiritual warfare. He is basically a spokesperson for Fr. Chad Ripperger (we are also guilty as charged) and wants to help men yell with a battle axe in one hand and the Rosary in the other hand. Or, give a good battle cry. Either one will work. Continue to listen to this multi-part episode as James and Ryan tackle why James is so awful at Christian rap music, do you pray for the right things every day, how complacency could in fact be today's man's greatest enemy, and how Ryan has encountered 5 separate demonic encounters.

In this week&#39;s episode of Catholic ReCon, testimonies from reverts and converts, guest Jeff Klem goes deep into this past, recalling dysfunctional beginnings, bad business, bouts with drugs, waves of addiction, a car crash, and darn near everything else under the sun. In the end, he finds the only thing that will satisfy the heart. I love my brother for his courage and willingness to share his very difficult journey to Christ.

This corporate man heard the call: "Come with Me"

In this episode, Dr. David Hajduk gives his take on why, in order to be a faithful Christian, you must have a devotion to the Blessed Virgin Mary, offering a wealth of Biblical evidence. He also tackles the question of whether praying the Rosary can be considered "optional" for Catholics, once one considers the history of this prayer, its importance to Mary herself, and the teachings about Saints and Popes about it. ✨Join us on our mission! https://arrayofhope.org/donate - Support Our Sponsors -<a href="https://bit.ly/3CFdNIG" target="_blank" style="color: blue;">Mother of Divine Grace School</a>&nbsp;- Founded by Laura Berquist in 1995, it offers a Catholic, classical approach to distance learning. - Connect with us -<a href="https://facebook.com/r4hpodcast" target="_blank" style="color: blue;">Facebook</a><a href="https://instagram.com/r4hpodcast" target="_blank" style="color: blue;">Instagram</a><a href="https://youtube.com/@R4HPodcast" target="_blank" style="color: blue;">Youtube</a><a href="https://arrayofhope.org/podcast" target="_blank" style="color: blue;">Website</a> ⏰Timecode⏰00:00 Introduction02:59 The Rosary: Essential Devotion for a Faithful Catholic04:38 Why True Devotion to Mary Is Essential for Every Faithful Catholic07:00 Why Mary Deserves The Highest Honor: Reason #107:21 Why Mary Deserves The Highest Honor: Reason #208:32 Why Mary Deserves The Highest Honor: Reason #309:41 Why Mary Deserves The Highest Honor: Reason #410:53 Why Mary Deserves The Highest Honor: Reason #512:45 Is the Rosary the Most Fitting Honor for Mary?13:24 Did the Rosary Really Come from Heaven?14:14 Was the Rosary Heaven’s Divine Weapon &amp; Answer to Heresy?19:47 Mother of Divine Grace School21:52 The Rosary’s Miraculous Beginnings23:42 How the Rosary Changed the Course of History at Muret26:09 The Battle for Christendom: Faith and the Rosary in Action27:59 Pope Pius V, the Rosary, and the Battle of Lepanto29:44 The Rosary and the Defeat of the Ottoman Forces at Vienna31:50 Saints and Popes on the Power of the Rosary35:48 Why Devotion to Mary and the Rosary is Crucial for Salvation37:05 The Rosary: A Gift We Owe to Our Blessed Mother38:22 End

Is Praying the Rosary Optional for A Catholic?

Today I sit down with Fr. Gregory Pine to discuss how YOU can prepare for Lent! Buckle up! --- Aquinas' 3 Reasons We Fast Fasting is practiced for a threefold purpose. First, in order to bridle the lusts of the flesh, wherefore the Apostle says (2 Corinthians 6:5-6): "In fasting, in chastity," since fasting is the guardian of chastity. For, according to Jerome [Contra Jov. ii.] "Venus is cold when Ceres and Bacchus are not there," that is to say, lust is cooled by abstinence in meat and drink. Secondly, we have recourse to fasting in order that the mind may arise more freely to the contemplation of heavenly things: hence it is related (Daniel 10) of Daniel that he received a revelation from God after fasting for three weeks. Thirdly, in order to satisfy for sins: wherefore it is written (Joel 2:12): "Be converted to Me with all your heart, in fasting and in weeping and in mourning." The same is declared by Augustine in a sermon (De orat. et Jejun. [Serm. lxxii (ccxxx, de Tempore)]): "Fasting cleanses the soul, raises the mind, subjects one's flesh to the spirit, renders the heart contrite and humble, scatters the clouds of concupiscence, quenches the fire of lust, kindles the true light of chastity."

Should We Become Eastern Orthodox? (Erick Ybarra) | Ep. 234

Let’s face it, leading other people is never an easy proposition.  There are some really dark moments.  If we are honest with ourselves there are times when we would rather quit – stop leading, stop trying to influence others.  Bad things can happen in our lives and moments when it makes us think if it is really worth it.  This is where our Christian faith can be of especial value to us.  Our Lord led us through the cross.  And He has graced His cross to be the power and the strength of those who lead in His name.  The Virgin Mary shows us this in her own life.

How a Priest's Daughter Stopped an Astral Projection

<a href="www.TheBeatiDudes.com%20">www.TheBeatiDudes.com</a> The BeatiDudes welcome back John Cannon, Founder of SENT Ventures, for this bonus episode.After early career success, John joined the Carmelite order and lived a contemplative, cloistered life of prayer and study. While researching church renewal movements, John realized that one of the most powerful tools for renewal is entrepreneurship. This led John to discern out of the monastery and into the business world to build a community that supports Catholic entrepreneurs and builders.In this episode, the Dudes reflect on the components of authentic Christian fraternity before diving into a discussion on the social teachings of the Church for business. Many of the SENT Ventures members are leading by or seeking to learn how to infuse dignity, solidarity, justice, and just wages into their organizations. During the "Blessed are the Joke Makers" game, John joins the BeatiDudes in answering the question "_________ led me to _________" as a fire and brimstone preacher. You won't want to miss his surprising answer. The show is closed out with another "reverse Simpsons" moment during which the Dudes play a classic improv game with a new name, "Doctor of The Church Know-It-All." <h2>Our Partners:</h2><a href="http://www.joinsolidarity.com/">Solidarity HealthShare</a><a href="https://sockreligious.com/pages/beatidudes">Sock Religious (10% Discount)</a><a href="https://decidedexcellence.com/">Decided Excellence</a><a href="https://spokestreet.com/">Spoke Street Media</a><a href="https://divinecomedyimprov.com/">Divine Comedy</a><a href="https://www.undivided.life/">Undivided Life</a><h2>Follow (our guest):</h2><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><h2>BeatiDudes Theme Song and Music By</h2><a href="https://thepencilbureau.com/">The Pencil Bureau</a> <h2>Great resources from this show</h2><a href="https://www.amazon.com/True-Leadership-Habiger-Institute-Catholic/dp/1944418717">True Leadership </a>book <a href="https://cas.stthomas.edu/_media-library/_documents/catholic-studies/vocation-of-the-business-leader.pdf">The Vocation of the Business Leader</a>

A Dram with Rick Sarkisian

To lead we have to be able to bring talent forth – all great leaders have this in common.  And Jesus Christ shows us this in a very special way.  During the three years he was with his apostles he not only consoled and healed them but he also challenged them and trained them for a life of discipleship in the most challenging of circumstances.  He trained his future leaders to lead by leading them into their own greatness even when this was hard.

Married and... Celibate? with Mabel Cardona

"Everyone you meet is fighting a battle you know nothing about"

We all have had confrontations with strangers, co-workers, and even family and friends that haven't always gone the way we would like. Oftentimes, these interactions can leave us upset and we can move quickly to anger, premature judgments, and resentment towards the other person. As Christians, we are called to be better than that. We are called to love others, to forgive, and to turn the other cheek. While these are not easy things to do in a moment of confrontation, they are the very things that allow us to live out the Gospel in our lives. We just never know the wounds and the battles people are facing at any given time. Listen in this week as John and Victor discuss ways to meet confrontation head on with the love, mercy, and forgiveness Christ commands us to. 

In this episode John and Victor discuss:

-Their personal experiences with out of the blue confrontation and what they learned from it
-That we have a choice in how we react to others
-Going to scripture to see how Jesus tells us to handle confrontation
-What to do when you are blindsided by someone

It is written (Sirach 15:14): "God made man from the beginning, and left him in the hand of his own counsel"; and the gloss adds: "That is of his free-will." I answer that, Man has free-will: otherwise counsels, exhortations, commands, prohibitions, rewards, and punishments would be in vain. In order to make this evident, we must observe that some things act without judgment; as a stone moves downwards; and in like manner all things which lack knowledge. And some act from judgment, but not a free judgment; as brute animals. For the sheep, seeing the wolf, judges it a thing to be shunned, from a natural and not a free judgment, because it judges, not from reason, but from natural instinct. And the same thing is to be said of any judgment of brute animals. But man acts from judgment, because by his apprehensive power he judges that something should be avoided or sought. But because this judgment, in the case of some particular act, is not from a natural instinct, but from some act of comparison in the reason, therefore he acts from free judgment and retains the power of being inclined to various things. For reason in contingent matters may follow opposite courses, as we see in dialectic syllogisms and rhetorical arguments. Now particular operations are contingent, and therefore in such matters the judgment of reason may follow opposite courses, and is not determinate to one. And forasmuch as man is rational is it necessary that man have a free-will. ST. I, Q. 83, A. 1. Does God know future contingent things? God knows all things; not only things actual but also things possible to Him and creature; and since some of these are future contingent to us, it follows that God knows future contingent things. In evidence of this, we must consider that a contingent thing can be considered in two ways; first, in itself, in so far as it is now in act: and in this sense it is not considered as future, but as present; neither is it considered as contingent (as having reference) to one of two terms, but as determined to one; and on account of this it can be infallibly the object of certain knowledge, for instance to the sense of sight, as when I see that Socrates is sitting down. In another way a contingent thing can be considered as it is in its cause; and in this way it is considered as future, and as a contingent thing not yet determined to one; forasmuch as a contingent cause has relation to opposite things: and in this sense a contingent thing is not subject to any certain knowledge. Hence, whoever knows a contingent effect in its cause only, has merely a conjectural knowledge of it. Now God knows all contingent things not only as they are in their causes, but also as each one of them is actually in itself. And although contingent things become actual successively, nevertheless God knows contingent things not successively, as they are in their own being, as we do but simultaneously. The reason is because His knowledge is measured by eternity, as is also His being; and eternity being simultaneously whole comprises all time, as said above (I:10:2). Hence all things that are in time are present to God from eternity, not only because He has the types of things present within Him, as some say; but because His glance is carried from eternity over all things as they are in their presentiality. Hence it is manifest that contingent things are infallibly known by God, inasmuch as they are subject to the divine sight in their presentiality; yet they are future contingent things in relation to their own causes. ST. I, Q. 14, A. 13.
