He opened the show with that story. Then Jim Spencer showed up — back after a long hiatus, cowboy hat on, ready to weigh in — and they cracked a bottle of Kilchoman's 14th Edition, an Islay scotch that doesn't get the attention of a Laphroaig or Ardbeg but probably deserves it. A $110 bottle. Jim put it at a 3.91 on the yummy scale (it was a prime number recording day, so that's out of 7 — work it out yourself). They all agreed it was legitimately good.

Before getting into the main topic, Dave gave an update on Baby Mary. She's been on a paralytic to help her grow, and they're trying to wean her off it. She tolerated the second attempt better than the first, but not well enough. They'll try again Monday or Tuesday. Pray for her blood pressure to stay stable when she comes off, and for her heart and lungs to stop fighting the ventilator. Dave said it directly and without dramatics, and that's the right way to hear it.

The episode is about the dinner table. Not as a feel-good idea — as a liturgy.

Adam had done a piece on this for his Substack: what makes a good day? Not an emotional high. A good day. He landed on three things: early morning prayer and reading, honing his craft in some way, and making it to the dinner table. They spent the hour unpacking why that third one carries so much weight.

Dave brought in the biblical thread — Abraham hosting God and the angels, Moses eating with the elders on the mountain, the Passover meal, the Last Supper, Christ asking for fish in his glorified body just to show the disciples he wasn't a ghost, the Road to Emmaus where he revealed himself in the breaking of bread. The pattern is not subtle. God keeps showing up at tables. There might be something to that.

Adam made the distinction between communication and communion. A lecture is communicative. The dinner table — done right — is a place of communion. The giving and the receiving. The statement and the response. That's not an accident. It's what the table is for.

They got into the practical mechanics: one conversation at a time, husband and wife starting the conversation before the kids are brought in, ending dinner with prayer for the souls in purgatory, the escalating formality through the day (breakfast is just survival, lunch gets the flowers on the table, dinner gets the candles). Dave's daughters were wearing hoop skirts on the grass at the contra dance they hosted the night before. He mentioned a Clear Creek inspiration — the monks don't even sit at breakfast. He's pondering it. Adam is not.

The story that landed hardest was from Alabama. He and Dave were on their way to EWTN — they recorded an episode in Mother Angelica's office, and Adam has video of Dave in makeup, which is apparently a treasure. They had dinner at the home of a man named Charlie Remore, a friend of a friend they'd never met. Large family. Long dinner table. Every child had a job, and they knew it cold. One managed silverware, one managed plates. When dinner ended, one stood up and cleared. Adam tried to stack the plates to help, and Charlie's kid corrected him — politely, but clearly. Don't stack the plates. We have to wash both sides. That's my job.

That's disinterested service. The Catechism (CCC 2223) actually names it. Charlie's household had made it habitual. No one was waiting for a thank-you. The family is the mission.

The picky eater section was, as promised, a hot take. Adam doesn't tolerate it. Eat what's served or it goes in the fridge and that's what you're eating next time. He said it, Dave agreed, and they both acknowledged it's hard — the chicken nuggets are right there, it's easier, you're tired — but the long-term cost of caving is worse than the short-term cost of holding the line. Your kid spreading butter with their fingers in your presence, knowing the rule, is an event that requires a response. Even when it happens to be this morning.

After dinner prayer. Pray it. For the faithful departed. It's been jettisoned by most Catholic families, including strong ones, and it shouldn't be. You're feeding those who can no longer feed themselves. That's what it is.

Raise your glass.

When they decided to lead their first pilgrimage and started asking around, Select was the name everyone gave them. Whether you want to lead a pilgrimage or join one, they're the real deal — go see what they've got.

The gate was shut. Just not latched. There's a difference — a difference Dave now knows in vivid detail, courtesy of the Broken Arrow Police Department and at least one very stressed heifer on the turnpike. Nobody died. The cows are back. The neighborhood is bonded. And apparently this is just a tradition they keep at Niles Ranch and Fecundity Farm.

This week Adam and Dave sat down with a glass of Dancing Panda — a straight Kentucky bourbon, eight years, 100 proof, with an unexpected apple-cinnamon finish — and got into someone most Catholics have heard of but few have actually read: St. Bonaventure.

Before you dive in: Adam's daughter Mary is in the hospital. Her lungs keep deflating. The situation is hour by hour. Please pray for her.

St. Bonaventure is, in a word, underrated. He was the Franciscan answer to Aquinas — less systematic, more contemplative, every bit as deep. Best friends with Thomas Aquinas. Minister General of the Franciscan Order. Seraphic Doctor. Second founder of the Franciscans. The man who, when Aquinas read his contribution to the Mass reform aloud, said "That's perfect. There's no need for mine" — and meant it.

The book on the table is Holiness of Life, published by Coriaceous Press. Written to a Poor Clare nun. Short — you can finish it in an afternoon. Dense — you'll carry it for a long time after.

Bonaventure lays out a ladder. Self-knowledge first. Then humility. Then poverty. Then silence. Then prayer, the remembrance of Christ's passion, perfect love of God, and final perseverance. Adam and Dave cover the first four.

Self-knowledge is not a journaling exercise. It's a brutal, honest accounting of where you actually are — seeing your dignity as an image of God and your misery as a sinner, both at the same time, clearly. Bonaventure names three root causes of sin: negligence, passion, and malice. He also gives you a mirror: are your interior promptings pulling toward pleasure, curiosity, or vanity? Most of us don't have to think long.

Humility follows — because you can't see yourself honestly and still puff up. Bonaventure says humility is the guardian and foundation of all virtues. To excel in virtue without humility is to carry dust before the wind. If pride is the root of every sin, humility is the root of every virtue. And Adam drops the Aquinas line that's worth writing on a wall: A man is truly wealthy when he lacks nothing that he truly needs for salvation.

Poverty, in Bonaventure's framing, isn't about being broke. It's about holy detachment. The unburdening of the soul so you can actually run toward Christ. We're not trying to anchor ourselves in this world. The more you sink your teeth into worldly things, the less you can sink your soul into heavenly ones.

And then silence. Not just quiet in the house — interior silence. Bonaventure says poverty and silence are twins. Those appetites you feed don't just cost you. They're loud. They lie. They drown out everything you need to hear about who you actually are.

Bonaventure wrote: "Silence has another advantage. It shows that man belongs to a better world. If a man lives in Germany and yet does not speak German, we naturally conclude that he is not German. So too, we rightly conclude that a man who does not give himself up to worldly conversation is not of the world, although he lives therein."

That'll stay with you.

Often reduced to “greed,” avarice is far more subtle—and far more dangerous. Drawing from St. John Cassian, St. Thomas Aquinas, and the spiritual tradition of the Church, the guys explore how a disordered attachment to material things can quietly shape our lives, distort our priorities, and even blind us spiritually.

They discuss how modern “grind culture” can normalize avarice, why money itself is uniquely deceptive among the vices, and how this sin can creep in unnoticed—even among faithful men striving for holiness.

The conversation also tackles:

1. Why avarice is different from other sins
2. The “seven daughters” of greed according to Aquinas
3. How avarice leads to restlessness, anxiety, and spiritual blindness
4. The connection between avarice and a lack of trust in God
5. The surprising concept of spiritual avarice
6. Practical strategies to root it out, including manual labor, generosity, and community

If you’ve never considered avarice in your examination of conscience, this episode will challenge you to take a deeper look—and give you a path forward.

In this episode, Adam and David reflect on the gift of time through the lens of Catholic theology, fatherhood, prayer, suffering, work, and even Nick Saban’s famous process-driven mindset.

The conversation begins with updates on baby Mary and a moving reflection on the fragile beauty of life, suffering, healing, and hope. From there, the discussion turns toward a deeper meditation on time itself: how easily we waste it, how often we rush through it, and how every moment is a gift given by God.

Drawing from St. Augustine, St. Teresa of Avila, the Psalms, leisure, memory, mortality, and the demands of vocation, Adam and David explore what it means to live well in the present moment. They also connect this to Nick Saban’s practical framework of focusing on the now, controlling the controllables, and trusting the process over the outcome.

This episode is a call for Catholic men to stop drifting through life, stop living in regret or anxiety, and start receiving time as the arena in which God prepares us for eternity.

In this episode:

1. An update on baby Mary and the power of prayer
2. Why suffering, life, and death sharpen our awareness of time
3. St. Augustine on the mystery of past, present, and future
4. Why Catholic men must stop wasting the present moment
5. Fatherhood, busyness, and the fear of missing what matters most
6. Leisure as the wise use of time
7. St. Teresa of Avila on growth in prayer
8. How to stop rushing through life
9. Nick Saban’s “focus on the now” mindset through a Catholic lens
10. Control the controllables and trust the process
11. Time, judgment, memory, and eternity

Key takeaway:

You cannot control the future. You cannot relive the past. But you can receive the present moment as a gift from God and use it for holiness.

Then it's deep dive time into Dante's Divine Comedy — specifically the Dantinian ordering of sin, love, and the moral life across the Inferno and Purgatorio. David and Adam unpack:

1. Why lust is the first (mildest) circle of Hell — and why that's actually a message of hope, not a free pass
2. Why fraud and treason sit at the bottom — and what it means to so disfigure your soul that evil looks like good
3. The mirror structure of Purgatory — pride at the base, lust at the summit, and why the climb starts now
4. Misdirected love, deficient love, and excessive love — how Dante's ladder maps directly onto your daily examination of conscience
5. Why Hell is isolation and Purgatory is communion — and what that says about Christian hope
6. Acedia (sloth) redefined — it's not laziness, it's spiritual sluggishness, and it may be the most dangerous sin of the comfortable
7. Cato's charge at the gate of Purgatory: Run. Don't wait a second.

The main topic: wonder. What it is, why Dante considered it the most critical virtue to cultivate in adolescence, and what we lose when we crush it in our kids... often without realizing it.

Dante divides life into four stages: adolescence (birth to 25), youth (25 to 45), old age (45 to 70), and extreme old age (70 and beyond). Each stage has its own virtues and tasks. But it's adolescence — the age of obedience, wonder, and ordering loves — that Dante treats with the most urgency. Because wonder, once crushed, is very hard to resurrect.

Adam and Dave unpack why screens flatten the imagination, why GK Chesterton's wonder at green grass wasn't eccentricity but sanity, and why Dante's most devastating line about education still applies today: if you raise kids without wonder, you may make them competent... but not wise.

Also in this episode: the connection between Dante and Aquinas, the KU Integrated Humanities Program and David Dean, a monk at Clear Creek who hadn't read his prior's book and why that was one of the wisest things Dave has ever seen, and the difference between knowledge and wisdom in the age of AI.

4. Why Dante places the pinnacle of life at age 33 (and why that's not a coincidence)
5. Wonder vs. ignorance — Dante's distinction and why it matters for how we raise kids
6. Screens and the flattening of wonder — Dave's strong opinion, delivered with characteristic conviction
7. GK Chesterton and the green grass

It has been the lightest recording stretch the show has had in almost ten years. Adam owns the delay and explains why. Since the last episode, baby Mary arrived very early at around 27 weeks and about two pounds. She was baptized immediately, and there is a question about whether she was also confirmed due to the use of holy oils and the circumstances.

A few days after birth, Mary underwent an intense and invasive surgery that lasted more than six hours. The surgeon later said it was the hardest operation he had ever performed. The procedure connected her esophagus to her stomach, and the family is now living the day to day reality of the NICU: small adjustments, constant monitoring, and a careful balance with oxygen, blood pressure, heart rate, and long term risks.

The charity that is hard to receive

A theme that keeps surfacing is gratitude, and how hard it can be to receive help when you want to be in control. Adam and David thank listeners for prayers, meals, transportation help, and the quiet generosity that shows up when you least expect it.

They give a major shoutout to the Ronald McDonald House, which provided a place for the family to stay near the hospital, along with meals and support that would have been financially impossible otherwise. Adam also mentions friends and patrons who opened their homes and brought food. It is a reminder that “village” is not a cliché when your world turns upside down.

Also, in the middle of all this, Adam’s son Leo drops a classic kid moment at Mass: during a serious homily he leans over and asks when he will get to meet J.B. Mooney, the professional bull rider. Fatherhood keeps you humble.

What they’re drinking

David brings a bottle from the Scotch Malt Whisky Society featuring Royal Brackla. The tasting notes are ridiculous in the best way, described like “dessert in the workshop,” with custard, toffee chunks, marshmallow, and an unexpected “carpenter’s shop” vibe. It even has a hint of iodine that makes David think of Islay, without the heavy peat and smoke.

A relic in the hotel room

A priest from the diocese drops off a first class relic of St. Gemma, telling Adam to keep it while the family walks through this trial. Adam and David talk about the reality of having the body of a saint in the room with you, and the comfort that brings, especially when the road ahead is long.

Lent and temperance: not a “no,” but a “yes”

The episode’s main topic is temperance, framed as the Lenten virtue that touches everything. The simple kid definition they love is: temperance is having a healthy amount of everything. Not perfect, but memorable.

They push back against the idea that temperance is just restriction. Temperance is not merely refusing the extra piece of cake. It is also the positive ordering of your life so you can say yes to the right things at the right time in the right way: exercise, prayer, rest, work, family presence, joy, celebration.

The key theme: virtue is always a yes. The “no” exists to protect the “yes.”

St. John Cassian and the “bread” of Sodom

One of the most interesting turns comes from St. John Cassian’s Institutes. Cassian argues that Sodom’s first sin was not the obvious sin people associate with Sodom and Gomorrah. He points to Ezekiel and emphasizes surplus, abundance, and gluttony. Cassian’s logic is that the disorder starts low and spreads upward: feed the appetite, then the passions grow louder, the will weakens, and eventually the mind rationalizes what it should never have chosen.

They connect this to the common sense link between food appetites and sexual appetites. If you cannot curb the basic, you will struggle to curb the higher.

A line that lands: If you can’t say no, your yes means nothing.

Pleasure, pain, and spiritual clarity

Adam shares a sharp thought: pleasure clouds judgment faster than pain. Suffering, especially voluntary suffering, tends to focus the mind. It wakes you up and forces clarity. That is why fasting can sharpen spiritual vision. It reveals attachments you thought you did not have.

They bring in Father Anselm Stolz’s point: ascetic practices are not the end. The end is contemplation, union with God, and becoming more like Christ. The danger for men is turning Lent into an achievement badge, turning penance into pride, and making the self the center.

Temperance orders the whole man

They outline a hierarchy: God, reason, will, passions, body. Temperance helps keep the order intact, so the higher rules the lower and the lower serves the higher. When the passions take the driver’s seat, the will becomes a servant, reason gets distorted, and you can rationalize sin quickly or slowly over years.

They also emphasize something many men miss: the temperate man feasts. Feasting well matters. If you do not fast, you will not feast well. If you cannot feast temperately, your fasting might be more about control than freedom.

Practical takeaways for dads

One of the best “take this home” moments is teaching kids delayed gratification. The classic M&M test becomes a simple, memorable way to form a child in temperance. Kids have wildly different reactions, and that is the point. You are building the muscle of waiting for the greater good.

They also offer a gut check for adults: a good test of temperance is how you feast, not only how you fast. If Sundays turn into chaos, bingeing, and excuses, something is off. The goal is freedom.

Closing thought

Lent is a season of no so you can say yes. Mastery before glory. The Christian life is not an empty handed life. It is abundance in the right order.

In this episode, Adam and David unpack the Catholic understanding of perseverance—not as white-knuckled suffering, but as faithfully enduring in the pursuit of the good over time.

Using insights from St. Thomas Aquinas, they explain why perseverance is less about dramatic hardship and more about showing up day after day in prayer, marriage, fatherhood, and work—even when there is no immediate payoff.

From the slow labor of a sow giving birth, to the monotony of daily prayer, to the demands of being present as a father, this episode reframes perseverance as one of the most essential virtues for the modern man.

Topics include:

1. St. Thomas Aquinas’ definition of perseverance
2. The difference between perseverance and constancy
3. Why perseverance is about duration, not difficulty
4. Why there is no “excess” of perseverance
5. Final perseverance as a gift from God
6. Why motivation fades but discipline remains
7. Practical ways to grow in perseverance as a man

Adam shares a personal update about his family and the power of prayer and community during a time of serious medical uncertainty. From there, the conversation turns to what real catechesis looks like in the home: modeling prayer, creating a culture of beauty, building liturgical traditions, and making the Eucharist the center of family life.

The guys explore why passing on the faith is less about producing kids who can pass a religion test, and more about raising children who know God is real and worth ordering their entire life around.

Topics include:

1. Why fathers are primarily responsible for catechesis
2. The difference between knowing the faith and loving the faith
3. Teaching children how to pray by example
4. Using beauty, art, and the home to form souls
5. Why habits and traditions matter more than programs
6. Making the Eucharist the source and summit of family life

The conversation ties sin directly to freedom. Only a truly free person can sin, because sin requires knowledge, responsibility, and the willful refusal of the good. Drawing on the Catechism, they frame sin as an offense against reason, truth, and right conscience, as well as a failure in love caused by disordered attachment to lesser goods. Sin is not “missing the mark” in the sense of trying hard and falling short; it is a refusal, a “no” to what is.

They also explore how every sin involves untruthfulness and self-deception. To commit sin, a person constructs a false account of reality that makes the act seem reasonable. This helps explain why rationalization demands constant outside validation and why modern life often tries to remove guilt without removing sin. Against that, the hosts emphasize that forgiveness presupposes guilt, and sin can only be understood alongside grace.

Practical takeaways include building a daily examination of conscience, paying attention to patterns and triggers, naming both sins of commission and omission, and running to confession with regularity. The episode closes with a fatherly focus: how to speak about sin with children truthfully without crushing them, holding together mercy and clarity so that kids learn both the seriousness of sin and the permanence of love.

Key topics covered

1. A family approach to New Year’s disciplines: spiritual, virtue-driven, and “free choice” goals
2. Why “the concept of sin” has faded while sin itself has not
3. Pieper’s claim: before sin is a moral issue, it is a metaphysical issue
4. Sin, freedom, and responsibility: why only the free can sin
5. Why sin is more than “missing the mark”: refusal vs. mistake
6. Sin as rejection of reality and the link to truth and the transcendentals
7. The role of self-deception and rationalization in every sinful act
8. Grace and forgiveness: why forgiveness presupposes guilt
9. Vice vs. sin and how habitual patterns can erode clarity and hope
10. Examination of conscience, confession, and spiritual “trench warfare”
11. Parenting: naming sin without demoralizing children, holding truth with mercy

4. Discussion invitation: patrons reading Romano Guardini, Letters from Lake Como (relationship to technology)
5. A practical tip for readers: keeping quotes and notes in a phone note app

Practical takeaways

1. Do a daily examination of conscience: where you fell, where grace was present, and what you failed to do.
2. Identify the “script” behind recurring sins: time of day, moods, environments, triggers, and predictable pathways.
3. Treat confession as a regular cadence, not only an emergency response.
4. Pay attention to sins of omission: failure to act, speak, defend, or choose the harder good.
5. When talking with children: name sin clearly, offer mercy quickly, and keep the relationship intact.

2. Whiskey mentioned: Cream of Kentucky, small batch bourbon; “yummy scale” rating joke lands at 4.2

1. The “joyful demeanor” that opens doors to talking about Jesus (without getting weird).
2. A godfather breakfast on a baptism anniversary becomes a living lesson in evangelization.
3. “Five seconds” theology: most of our daily encounters are brief—so what do we do with them?

The Thomistic pivot: Why life feels like a blur

1. Time accelerates as you age; “someday” becomes a trap.
2. Many men feel stuck for 10–15 years—spiritually, vocationally, relationally, and in work.
3. The antidote isn’t bigger ambition—it’s better order.

Aquinas on happiness: What won’t satisfy

Aquinas method: name the end (happiness), then rule out false ends.

1. Wealth: money is a means, not a final end.
2. Honor / reputation: depends on others; happiness must be stable and interior.
3. Power: instrumental, addictive, and easily disguised as “leadership.”
4. Pleasure: real and good, but cannot be the end—pleasure perfects an act, it doesn’t define the goal.

The positive claim: What happiness actually is

1. Perfect happiness is the vision of God (beatific vision).
2. We can’t fully attain it in this life, but we can live an imperfect happiness by ordering our lives toward it.
3. Key shift: beatitude, not optimization.

Hierarchy of goods (practical framework for 2026)

Three filters for any resolution:

1. Is it ordered toward the highest good? (God, truth, contemplation)
2. Does it support your vocation? (husband/father, priest, etc.)
3. Does it treat lesser goods as means? (money, status, comfort serve the mission)

Concrete resolutions (small, durable, lifelong)

1. “Not huge shifts—small profitable habits that stick.”
2. Guarding silence and adding a few more minutes of contemplative prayer.
3. A reminder: you can “succeed” without prayer, but not in the way a Christian wants to succeed.

The closing medicine: Gratitude slows time

1. Gratitude grounds you in the present and breaks the “always next” mindset.
2. Hard to stay bitter when you’re truly thankful.
3. Cheers to Jesus—and to living the winning side like you mean it.

The guys talk about why evangelization feels scary for normal Catholics in the pews, why it is not optional, and why God never asked you to be effective. He only asked you to be faithful. Cy explains why pressure to “get results” is misplaced, how discouragement is the devil’s favorite weapon against evangelists, and why introverts might actually be better at sharing the Gospel than extroverts.

They also dig into what the Gospel actually is, why “God loves you” is true but incomplete, and how the full Christian story speaks directly to the modern world’s confusion about meaning, identity, and purpose. From street evangelization to talking with adult children who have drifted from the faith, Cy offers clarity, encouragement, and concrete advice rooted in real experience.

This is an episode about integrity, prayer, the sacraments, and learning how to talk about Jesus in a way that is honest, human, and real.

In this episode:

1. Why evangelization feels intimidating for ordinary Catholics
2. Why you are not called to be effective, only faithful
3. How discouragement shuts down evangelization
4. The difference between proclamation and debate
5. Why introverts can be excellent evangelists
6. What the Gospel actually is, beyond “God loves you”
7. How modern culture misunderstands science and human dignity
8. Why evangelization always includes words, not just example
9. The role of prayer and the Eucharist in sustaining evangelists
10. Why the goal is winning souls, not arguments
11. Cy’s new book, How to Talk About Jesus with Anybody

Guest:

Cy Kellett, host of Catholic Answers Live and co-author of How to Talk About Jesus with Anybody

Book mentioned:

How to Talk About Jesus with Anybody by Steve Dawson with Cy Kellett

From there, it turns into a practical, tradition-packed episode on celebrating Christmas well. Not the Hallmark version, and not the American “Christmas ends on December 26” version either. The kind that actually follows the liturgical calendar, keeps Advent as Advent, and treats Christmas as a season, not a day.

Along the way, they review a Taiwanese whiskey from the Scotch Malt Whisky Society, talk family customs that make the day feel grounded, and make a strong case for grandfathers and fathers to be the custodians of tradition. One of the best parts is a simple, doable challenge: take the 12 Days of Christmas seriously and mark the feast days with small, intentional practices your family will actually remember.

In this episode:

1. The “wake up and conquer the world” mood vs the day Christ resurrected
2. Advent vs Christmas, and why our culture gets it backwards
3. Why “Merry” used to mean more like blessed than happy
4. Midnight Mass, caroling, real Christmas trees, and reading Luke before presents
5. A great grandfather tradition: gather the family and speak from the heart
6. Gifts for kids: fewer and meaningful vs abundance as a sign of the Father’s generosity
7. The 12 Days of Christmas, and the feast days that stack up fast
8. St. John’s Blessing of Wine and why you should do it
9. A practical idea for the Holy Innocents: dads blessing their children out loud
10. Epiphany water and why you should plan ahead to get it blessed

Whiskey for the episode: Taiwanese whiskey (Scotch Malt Whisky Society pick), “Dunker’s Delight” style notes, 107 proof, with flavors like caramel and apple pie crust.

Challenge for the week: Pick two feast days during the 12 Days of Christmas and do something small but real. Bless your kids, bless wine, invite someone over, go to Mass, or start a tradition worth keeping.

Fr. Charbel, a Franciscan Friar of the Immaculate, joins Adam and David in Tulsa along with first-class relics of St. Maximilian Kolbe and St. Charbel, sharing powerful stories of faith, mission, intercession, and what young Catholic men are longing for today.

IN THIS EPISODE

1. Meet Fr. Charbel — his order, his mission, and why Marian consecration is central

Fr. Charbel introduces the Franciscans of the Immaculate, an order founded to continue the Marian mission of St. Maximilian Kolbe:

• Total consecration to Mary as a fourth vow
• A spirituality built on St. Francis + St. Maximilian
• Missionary availability (“Send me anywhere in the world”)
• Heavy emphasis on prayer, poverty, obedience, and Marian devotion

He explains how Our Lady’s presence has shaped every major moment in salvation history — from Nazareth to the Cross — and why consecration gives Mary “permission” to form us the way she formed Christ.

2. A surge of young men seeking God

As the newly appointed vocations director, Fr. Charbel reveals something astonishing:

40+ serious vocation inquiries in just two months.

Why the sudden surge?

• Men want something real
• They crave mission and purpose
• They want orthodoxy and reverence
• They want a spirituality that demands something of them
• Marian devotion draws them in a unique way

“It’s inspiring,” he says. “Young men want authenticity.”

3. Stories of Divine Providence and the adventure of religious life

The guys talk about:

• The Franciscan blend of active + contemplative
• The thrill of trusting God with everything
• Poverty that becomes a doorway to providence
• Why Franciscans never seem to fundraise (“God just provides”)

Religious life, he says, is more adventurous than most men realize.

4. Deep dive: Who is St. Charbel? Why is he exploding in popularity?

St. Charbel Makhlouf, a Lebanese hermit, is becoming one of the most beloved saints of the century.

Father explains why:

• Lived a hidden, humble, ascetic life
• 23 years in community + 23 years as a hermit
• Entire life centered on the Holy Eucharist
• Body discovered incorrupt with supernatural light rising from his tomb
• Over 29,000 documented miracles since 1950
• Miracles among Muslims, Druze, Orthodox, and nonbelievers
• Global pilgrims: 2 million+ per year

One stunning story:

A Muslim sheikh publicly visited St. Charbel’s shrine to thank him for healing his mother of cancer.

“Why would God confirm the life of a hermit who spent his life before the Eucharist,” Father asks, “unless the Eucharist is truly what the Church says it is?”

5. Lessons from St. Charbel for modern men + fathers

What does a hermit from Lebanon have to teach us? A lot.

Fr. Charbel lays out practical takeaways:

• Faithfulness in the small things
• Silence — making space for God’s voice
• Daily prayer even without consolations
• Obedience and humility
• Eucharistic devotion
• Marian devotion as a way of being formed
• Asceticism and fasting: dying to self in small ways
• Doing your duty with love

As he says: “God doesn’t call you to be successful. He calls you to be faithful.”

6. Mary, her titles, and how she draws men to Christ

The guys discuss:

• Why we must be unashamed of Marian devotion
• The richness of her many titles:
• Mother of God
• Cause of Our Joy
• Mother of Good Counsel
• Undoer of Knots
• Seat of Wisdom
• Why Marian consecration doesn’t distract from Jesus — it leads to Him
• Why she is the “surest and quickest way” to holiness

Fr. Charbel emphasizes “You can never love her as much as Jesus already does.”

7. Books, Resources, and Where to Find More

Fr. Charbel’s order publishes incredibly practical Marian books:

• “Preparation for Total Consecration” (33 days in the spirit of Maximilian Kolbe)
• “Beloved Disciple” — how to live your consecration daily
• “Rule of Life: St. Maximilian Kolbe’s personal spiritual notes” (brand new)

Adam shares about Lady Haylee's recent medical scare during pregnancy, the prayers from patrons, and what it’s like to walk through real uncertainty as a husband and father. The guys reflect on how quickly life can tilt from “normal” to “barely holding it together,” and yet how God can still anchor everything in hope and gratitude.

Over whiskey (a Pseudo Sue malt from Iowa), Adam and David shift into the main topic: spiritual blindness—how easy it is for men to be convinced we’re right, standing for the truth, and yet be totally off the mark.

Drawing from Scripture, the lives of the apostles, St. John of the Cross, Aquinas, and even Dante, they explore:

In This Episode:

• Real-life trials and gratitude
• Haley’s hospitalization and recovery
• Kids’ birthdays, chipped teeth, and car trouble
• How chaos at home can either crush us or deepen our trust in God
• Miracles, doubt, and the desire for “proof”
• “If God would just give us a miracle, evangelization would be easy”
• The everyday miracles we ignore: the Eucharist, confession, conversions
• Why even those who saw Jesus’ miracles still doubted and fled
• Spiritual blindness in the apostles and in us
• Peter’s “I’ll never deny you” moment—and the fall that followed
• The apostles missing who Jesus really is, even after years of walking with Him
• Looking back on friendships and seasons of life and realizing, “I was blind to how unhealthy that really was”
• How our culture and attachments distort our judgment
• Bringing politics into our faith and letting ideology outrank the Gospel
• The overworking dad: when “providing” becomes an excuse to avoid the harder work of fatherhood
• Attachment to success, busyness, and being “the guy” who makes everything happen
• The “theology guy” who knows tons about the faith but never actually prays or serves
• St. John of the Cross and Aquinas on blindness of mind
• Disordered attachments as a cause of spiritual blindness
• Misapplying first principles and deforming prudence
• Why ignorance isn’t always innocent—especially when it’s chosen
• Dante, betrayal, and why some wounds cut so deep
• Why Dante places traitors and betrayers at the bottom of hell
• The pain of realizing someone you trusted was not who you thought
• How misplaced trust in people can tempt us to distrust God
• Practical ways to grow in spiritual clarity
• Daily (or even twice-daily) examination of conscience
• Honest fraternal correction and asking your friends to tell you the truth
• Living a real ascetical life: fasting, temperance, and taming appetites
• Submitting your judgment to the Church instead of making yourself the standard
• Turning to the sacraments—especially confession and the Eucharist—for renewed vision

Along the way, you’ll also hear:

• A story about accidentally using cardamom instead of cinnamon on a first date
• The strangely satisfying joy of a perfectly vacuumed game room
• The quiet fulfillment of husbandry—raising animals, caring for land, and stewarding what God has given

This episode is an invitation to ask hard questions:

• Where am I convinced I’m right, but might be deeply wrong?
• What am I attached to that clouds my judgment?
• Who do I trust enough to tell me what I don’t see about myself?

If you’ve ever looked back on a season of life and thought, “How did I not see that?”—this conversation is for you.

No, The Catholic Man Show isn’t joining The Daily Wire. A sincere congrats to Matt Fradd on taking Pints With Aquinas to a bigger platform—and a case for celebrating a brother’s success without the cynicism.

Why Moves Like This Matter

Media realities, families to provide for, and why “selling out” is usually just a lazy take. Bigger reach can mean more souls reached—full stop.

Pilgrimage Debrief: Rome, Florence, and Awe

• Florence surprises: the David, the Medici footprint, and why the city stole the show.
• Rome moments: St. Mary Major, the House of Loreto, and the joy of praying where the Holy Family lived.
• Padre Pio: devotion, controversy, and a frank take on the modern shrine aesthetic.

A Feast-Day Field Note

St. Hubert, patron of hunters, meets a proud dad moment: a 12-year-old’s first solo hunt, patience under pressure, and why rites of passage matter for boys.

Main Topic: Obedience Without Caricature

• Aquinas on obedience: not the greatest virtue (charity is), but among the highest of the moral virtues because it orders us to the good.
• Catechism on authority (cf. 1897ff): authority is legitimate when it seeks the common good and respects moral law; unjust commands do not bind.
• Three “levels” of obedience
• Modern resistance to authority vs. Christian freedom: obedience is not blind; it’s charity and justice in action.

Socrates, the Coliseum, and Costly Witness

A lively back-and-forth: unjust sentences, martyrdom, and whether courage sometimes looks like staying put.

Fatherhood and the Pattern of Obedience

• Children learn reverence for God’s authority by seeing Dad obey the Church, pray when he doesn’t “feel like it,” and submit his will to the good.
• House rules and spiritual rule: why outside authority often works better than self-made resolutions.

Community Corner

Thanks to patrons, cookies, and a few inside-baseball notes about keeping a niche Catholic show on the air without taking a dime personally.

Key Takeaways

• Celebrate good work when Catholic creators get a larger platform.
• Obedience isn’t weakness; it’s strength directed toward the highest good.
• Legitimate authority deserves assent; unjust commands do not.
• Fathers model obedience that forms a family’s conscience.
• Pilgrimage sharpens conviction—beauty and history catechize the heart.

Mentioned in the Episode

• St. Thomas Aquinas: Summa Theologiae, II–II, q.104 (obedience).
• Catechism of the Catholic Church: on authority and the common good (around 1897–1904).
• St. Hubert: patron saint of hunters.
• Padre Pio: witness of obedience amid misunderstanding.
• House of Loreto, St. Mary Major, Florence’s David: moments where beauty meets belief.

Segment Guide

On the Road (and Sea): Why This Episode Is Different

First-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 Conversion

The 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 Go

From “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 Hour

Bring 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 Receive

Making 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 Blessing

Why 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 Adoration

How 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 Renewal

How devotion blossomed after Corpus Christi and grew again in recent decades—feeding vocations, parish life, and personal holiness.

Key Takeaways

• Adoration deepens Communion. It doesn’t replace the Mass; it disposes us to receive the Eucharist more fruitfully.
• Start small, stay steady. Twenty minutes grows into an hour; over time, you won’t want to miss it.
• Bring the kids. Create kid-friendly windows or family hours; let children encounter Jesus and learn chapel habits gradually.
• Spiritual communion matters. If you can’t receive sacramentally, orient yourself to the tabernacle and keep showing up.
• Benediction blesses uniquely. The blessing is given with Christ himself, not merely by the priest.

Memorable Lines

• “Adoration is a moment of the Mass held in contemplation.”
• “You can’t outgive the Lord—show up and let Him do the work.”
• “Hang out with Jesus often; we become like the people we’re with.”
• “Correct the [Eucharistic] abuses, but don’t throw out the baby with the bathwater.”

How to Begin a Holy Hour (Simple Plan)

1. Arrive and acknowledge: a slow Sign of the Cross; “Lord, I’m here.”
2. Read briefly (5–10 min): a Gospel passage or trusted spiritual classic.
3. Pray a decade or the whole Rosary.
4. Rest in silence: “I look at Him and He looks at me.”
5. Finish with gratitude and one concrete resolution for the week.

Resources & Places Mentioned

• Basilica of St. Rita of Cascia (Eucharistic miracle)
• Orvieto (miracle tied to the Feast of Corpus Christi)
• Sacré-Cœur, Paris (longstanding perpetual adoration)
• St. Thomas Aquinas (Eucharistic hymns for Corpus Christi)
• St. John Vianney (on simple adoration)
• St. John Paul II (modern renewal of adoration)
• St. Peter Julian Eymard (19th-century apostle of the Eucharist)

For Dads & Grandfathers

• Keep expectations age-appropriate. Five or ten minutes is a win.
• Prep gently before you enter; debrief after with hot chocolate or a donut.
• Rotate one-on-one holy hours so each child sees Dad pray

Listener Challenge

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.

Key Highlights:

• Pilgrimage Gold: Fresh off praying at St. Francis' tomb and St. Clare's incorrupt body. Plus, stories of Francis dodging death in the Holy Land because even the Saracens couldn't handle his holiness. Spiritual overload = total win.
• The Father's Job: Establish a Culture: Forget the 30-something basement-dwellers—it's time to till that family soil like a pro vintner. They riff on winery chats: Every plot's different, climates change, so adapt your strategy. Build traditions around high feasts (Christmas Nativity read-aloud before gifts? Yes!), guard your wife's prayer time, and echo that husband-wife holiness down to the kids.
• Resilience Like the Saints: One bad call ruins your day? No. Channel St. Clare ("No suffering bothers me!") and blind-but-joyful St. Francis. Practice gratitude, God's-will-be-done prayers, and bounce back fast—'cause your mood sets the home tone.
• Focus or Bust: Saints win by laser-focus on holiness. Ditch the noise (X, YouTube, endless projects). Adam's hack: Stopwatch your day. Shocking how 25 minutes of "deep work" gets hijacked by texts. Apply it home—clock real presence with kids over fence-painting busywork.

Adam's Four Pillars to Cultivate Christian Life:

1. Silence – God's language. Train kids to quiet appetites at home so they can apply it at Holy Mass.
2. Reverence – Rebel against irreverence. Yes sir/ma'am, genuflect at churches, dress sharp for Mass—builds love for the Eucharist.
3. Hard Work – Outpace 90% by pushing past "I can't." Sports, chess, prayer, fasting—saints weren't smarter, just tougher.
4. Charity – The supernatural crescendo. Serve without quid pro quo (Catechism 2223). Punch in pure love, St. Nick-style.

• Grandpa Power: You're the tradition custodian! Give "state of the union" fireplaceside talks like Adam's grandpa—wisdom from the trenches and the hilltop.
• Soul-Crafting Close: Italian churches are stunning, but one holy soul outshines 'em all. You're the craftsman for your wife's and kids' souls—steward God's talents like your life depends on it (spoiler: it does).

Action Steps for Catholic Dads:

1. Tonight: List 3 family traditions to start (feast-focused first).
2. Tomorrow: Stopwatch 1 hour of undistracted kid-time. No phone.
3. This Week: Guard your wife's prayer slot—strictly.
4. Pray: "Lord, till my home soil for saints."

Key Points:

• The role of fathers as spiritual protectors of their families.
• Why fasting and prayer are essential for building virtue.
• The connection between manual labor and a man’s soul.
• How receiving and transmitting tradition is key to a thriving culture.
• Clear Creek Abbey’s fundraising efforts to complete their monastery.
• Call to Action: Visit clearcreekmonks.org to support the monastery’s mission.

Adam shares a sideline story from coaching I-9 flag football—including a bold moment of public prayer—and the guys dive into practical Marian devotion for men. Plus: the legendary Catholic Man Show Campout, a hilarious kiddo/arcade saga, and this week’s whiskey.

In This Episode

• Coaching & Courage: How an I-9 format works for big families, simple plays that win, and leading a team in prayer after a teammate’s injury.
• Being Bold in Public Faith: Why most people respect prayer, overcoming hesitation, and letting charity—not fear—set the tone.

Marian Devotion for Men:

• Mary as Queen Mother and model disciple (why Mariology protects sound Christology).
• Practical “Marian hacks”: entrusting your prayers to Mary; asking for her heart before Holy Communion; Undoer of Knots novena.
• Old Testament typology (Jael, Judith, New Eve) and “she will crush your head” (Gen 3:15).
• Whiskey of the Week: Scotch Malt Whisky Society bottling from Tomatin (Highland), 9-year, charred hogshead, ~59% ABV—hot but opens beautifully with a splash; oak-forward finish.
• Campout Buzz: Men flying in from across the country; new activities; documentary coming to YouTube.
• Family & Fun: The token machine misadventure (fire trucks, free passes, and a parental facepalm).

Key Takeaways

• When in doubt, pray anyway—most onlookers receive it as a kind gesture.
• Daily Rosary is a proven aid against habitual sin (per spiritual masters).
• Offer your prayers through Mary so she can “clean them up” and present them to Jesus.
• Consider Total Consecration (St. Louis de Montfort) to root your day-to-day in Marian discipleship.

Together, they dive deep into the heart of Catholic worship and explore:

• How fathers can introduce young children to the beauty of the Mass—even when it feels like a workout.
• Why children belong in the main body of the church, not just the cry room.
• The meaning and role of altar serving and how it shapes boys into men of faith.
• Insights into the ordinary form vs. extraordinary form conversation, and how Pope Benedict XVI envisioned “mutual enrichment.”

This episode of The Catholic Man Show is a call for men to stop settling for mediocrity and start living with purpose. If you’re ready to embrace your role as protector, provider, and spiritual leader of your family—this one’s for you.

In this episode of The Catholic Man Show, we explore:

• Natural benefits of a rule: better use of time, decisiveness, consistency, and efficiency.
• Supernatural benefits: transforming daily actions into prayer, combating disorder, and conforming life to God’s will.
• For your neighbor: how your fidelity inspires others, balances prayer and apostolic works, and sanctifies your community.
• The right balance: flexibility without laxity, firmness without scrupulosity.
• Concrete considerations: prayer, family life, work, personal discipline, community, and apostolic action.

A rule of life isn’t about rigidity—it’s about freedom: God first, then your soul, your family, and your apostolate.

“He who lives by rule, lives unto God.”

What You’ll Hear in This Episode:

• Why comparing yourself to the “average American man” sets the bar far too low
• Fulton Sheen’s teaching on goodness, knowledge, and similarity as foundations of love
• The tension between prayer as desire vs. prayer as duty
• Why saints are extraordinary men and women who embrace heroic virtue
• “Just do it” as a rule for the spiritual life, work, and family life

• Practical wisdom on prayer, business, and discipline for Catholic men today
• A special tasting of an 18-year Orphan Barrel bourbon whiskey
• Updates on pilgrimages, the Catholic Rancho Campout, and more

Key Quotes:

• “Extraordinary men and women are saints because they have heroic virtue. Not just virtue—heroic virtue.”
• “Ordinary does not call you to get up early, to sacrifice comfort, or to fight for your family. Heroic men do.”
• “Sometimes, you just have to Nike up, bro. Just do it.”

They reflect on:

• The challenges of summer routines, distractions, and drifting prayer lives
• The importance of order and rhythm in family and spiritual life
• How our passions can overwhelm us if not properly trained
• Practical steps for purifying the memory and avoiding near occasions of sin
• The balance between embracing God’s gifts and remembering the Giver
• What it means to fight temptation as husbands and fathers, especially in seasons of abstinence
• Encouragement from the spiritual masters: why pressure can be good and why we must never assume we’re immune from temptation

With humor, honesty, and practical advice, Adam and Dave remind us that peace is the tranquility of order and that holiness requires vigilance, fraternity, and grace.

What does it mean to live virtuously in public? How can one small act of kindness or virtue build up a community, shape a young man’s character, and challenge all of us to do more with what we’ve been given?

Matt shares his perspective on the modern man’s crisis of leisure, the dangers of mindless scrolling, and why intentional hobbies like fishing or board games are more than just recreation — they’re necessary for the soul.

They discuss:

• Why men today are worse at leisure than their grandfathers

Key Discussion Points:

• Opening Banter (00:00:19 - 00:04:50): David recounts his family road trip to Wyoming, including an unexpected stop in Denver and the challenges of traveling with six kids. Adam shares his chaotic week of household breakdowns, from a malfunctioning dishwasher to a beeping van door and a broken lawnmower, humorously reflecting on the "throwaway culture" he’s trying to resist.
• Health Struggles (00:09:01 - 00:11:24): Adam discusses a rare bout of heartburn that kept him up at night, highlighting his lack of Tums and his struggle to lead a meeting while sleep-deprived and feverish. David relates to his heartburn experience from a past "one chip challenge" on the show.
• Sponsorship Spotlight (00:12:00 - 00:12:39): The hosts thank Select International Tours, a long-time sponsor, for their reliable pilgrimage offerings. They encourage listeners to visit selectinternationaltours.com for details on their upcoming October pilgrimage to Italy, emphasizing the ideal weather and transformative experience.
• What We’re Drinking (00:37:02 - 00:37:26): Adam and David enjoy Wyoming Whiskey, a bourbon David praises for its affordability ($30 in Wyoming) and delicious flavor, making it a fitting choice for the episode.
• Main Topic: Distractions in Prayer (00:15:28 - 01:11:09):
• Personal Reflection: Adam shares a moment of grace in adoration, where he asked God to reveal impediments in his prayer life. A distracting phone check during a conversation revealed his struggle with presence, sparking a realization about the need for focus in both human and divine relationships.
• Theological Foundation: Drawing from St. Thomas Aquinas’ Summa Theologica (Second Part of the Second Part) and Father Walter Farrell’s Companion to the Summa, the hosts discuss prayer as an act of the will, preceded by the intellect. They reference the Baltimore Catechism’s teaching that we are made to “know, love, and serve” God, emphasizing that knowing God fuels love, which leads to service.
• Five Fountains of Distraction (Father Frederick Faber):

1. Disordered Health: An obsession with health (valetudinarian state) can distract from tranquility in prayer, unlike true suffering, which can draw one closer to God when united with the Cross.
2. Actions of the Holy Spirit: Distractions can serve as a crucible to humble and purify, grounding believers in deeper devotion by burning away self-love.
3. The Devil: Demonic distractions are marked by their abundance, vivid imagery, soul-disquieting nature, disconnection from daily life, repetitive patterns, and potential to lead to sin. Custody of the eyes, especially against sins of the sixth and ninth commandments, is crucial to limit the devil’s influence.
4. Inculpable Self: Unintentional distractions arise from temperament, imagination, or poor spiritual direction, which are not deliberately chosen but still disrupt prayer.
5. Culpable Self: Deliberately entertained distractions are grave sins if knowingly allowed during time owed to God. These include:

• Bodily Sources: Lack of mortification, irreverent postures (e.g., not kneeling when able), and frequent position changes. Kneeling can orient the mind toward God, uniting discomfort with the Cross.
• Mental Sources (Seven Causes):

1. Carelessness about minute sins, which corrupt purity of intention.
2. Lukewarmness (tepidness), often unrecognized, blinds one to spiritual deficiencies.
3. Curiosity, especially a thirst for news or irrelevant knowledge, distracts from one’s vocation.
4. Lack of preparation for prayer, such as not reflecting beforehand or rushing in without focus.
5. Neglecting custody of the senses outside of prayer (e.g., excessive phone use or unchaste media).
6. Failing to practice ejaculatory prayers (e.g., “Jesus, I trust in you”), which redirect the mind to God.
7. Not addressing recurring distractions through mortification.

• Practical Advice: The hosts emphasize that the battle against distractions is won outside of prayer through habits like custody of the senses, scheduled prayer times, and preparation (e.g., silent reflection before adoration). Adam shares his practice of focusing on intentions during the drive to adoration, while David highlights the value of ejaculatory prayers and teaching children to offer Mass intentions.
• Key Insight: Faber’s teaching that “the time of prayer is not the time for the true combat with distractions” underscores the need to build disciplined habits throughout the day, such as avoiding phone distractions during conversations or limiting exposure to sensational news.

In this episode of The Catholic Man Show, hosts Adam Minihan and David Niles dive into a lighthearted yet profound discussion about the phrase "killing two birds with one stone," the joys and challenges of high school reunions, and a deep exploration of friendship—both human and divine. The episode centers on John 15:14-15, where Jesus calls His disciples friends, not servants, offering a transformative perspective on what it means to live in communion with Christ. A powerful confession experience ties the conversation together, emphasizing the shift from doing things for God to doing them with Him.

Key Discussion Points:

• Opening Banter (00:00:16 - 00:04:55): Adam and David humorously debate the origins and modern misuse of the phrase "killing two birds with one stone," referencing historical and biblical imagery like David and Goliath, and even a viral video of Nolan Ryan hitting a bird with a baseball.
• Life Updates (00:05:00 - 00:11:39): David shares his excitement for an upcoming family reunion in Wyoming, while Adam talks about his son Leo’s second-place finish in mutton busting at a local rodeo and his anticipation for a 20-year high school reunion, sparking a funny reflection on aging and pride.
• Sponsorship Spotlight (00:12:00 - 00:13:15): The hosts highlight their long-time sponsor, Select International Tours, encouraging listeners to explore pilgrimage opportunities at selectinternationaltours.com and join their upcoming trip to Italy in October.
• What We’re Drinking (00:13:29 - 00:15:47): Adam and David enjoy The Sassenach, a blended Scotch whiskey with a Gaelic name meaning "outsider" or "stranger." They praise its Highland-like flavor and art deco bottle, likening it to a Mad Men-style decanter.
• Literature and Reading (00:16:46 - 00:20:43): David discusses reading G.K. Chesterton’s Man Alive, recommended by Monsignor Gallus, a Chesterton scholar, and touches on Plato’s The Republic. The hosts reflect on Chesterton’s whimsical style and the influence of classical works on Christian thought.
• Main Topic: Friendship with Christ (00:22:08 - 00:58:51):
• Biblical Foundation: Adam introduces John 15:14-15, where Jesus says, “You are my friends if you keep what I command you. No longer do I call you servants… but I have called you friends.” This passage sets the stage for a discussion on authentic friendship.
• Philosophical Insights: Drawing from Aristotle’s Nicomachean Ethics (Books 8-10), the hosts explore his three types of friendship—pleasure, utility, and authentic (virtuous) friendship. Aristotle views authentic friendship as the highest moral achievement, impossible without virtue, as vice renders true friendship unattainable.
• Christian Perspective: The discussion connects Aristotle’s ideas to Christian theology, with references to Augustine, Aquinas, and Cicero. Aquinas describes charity as the highest form of friendship, requiring mutual love, willing the good of the other, and a shared life—mirrored in Christ’s relationship with His disciples.
• Old vs. New Covenant: The hosts contrast the Old Covenant’s servanthood (e.g., Abraham obeying without full understanding) with the New Covenant’s friendship, where Christ shares divine knowledge, inviting us into intimacy and communion.
• Confession Insight: Adam shares a transformative moment from confession, where a priest challenged his mentality of doing things for God, urging him to focus on doing things with God. This shift reframes Christian life as a relationship of friendship, not obligation, aligning with John 15’s message.
• Communion of Saints: The episode explores how the communion of saints reflects perfect friendship, unhindered by human vice, and how Christ’s infinite love desires this communion with us.
• Practical Takeaway: The hosts encourage listeners to reflect on John 15:9-17 in adoration, emphasizing that God doesn’t need our works but desires our companionship. This perspective relieves the pressure of performance and combats pride, fostering a deeper relationship with Christ.

Key Discussion Points:

• Language as a Lens for Truth: Knowles explains that language is not a neutral tool but shapes how we perceive the world. Misusing it, such as through euphemisms like “undocumented American” instead of “illegal alien,” can obscure truth and manipulate thought.
• Euphemisms and Lies: While polite euphemisms (e.g., “woman of a certain age”) can be charitable, dishonest ones cross into lying, undermining civil discourse and societal standards.
• The Battle of Standards: The real fight isn’t between free speech and censorship but between competing norms. Knowles critiques free speech absolutism, advocating for standards that reject obscenity and fraud in the public square.
• Philosophy and Language Degradation: Drawing on Josef Pieper, Knowles notes that denying objective truth turns language into a tool for manipulation, eroding reasoned debate and civil society.
• The Power of Silence: In a world of constant noise, silence is a rebellious act that allows us to hear God’s voice and interpret the “signs of the times,” as Christ urges.
• Dante and Fraud: Knowles connects Deacon Harrison Garlick’s idea of lying as “contraceptive speech” to Dante’s Inferno, where fraud, especially betrayal, is among the gravest sins, as it perverts language’s purpose of conveying truth.
• Christian Task of Interpretation: Knowles emphasizes that Christians are called not to “do” but to interpret the world’s meaning, aligning actions with truth rather than reconstructing it.

Key Discussion Points:

• Small-Town Americana: The hosts celebrate the Heart of America rodeo, mutton busting, and the communal prayer and patriotism of small-town events, reflecting on their importance in fostering connection.
• Priestly Ordination: David shares a moving story of his son’s emotional response to Father Robert Williams’ ordination, highlighting the eternal nature of the priesthood and the call to discernment.
• Spiritual Idleness Defined: Drawing from Father Faber’s Growth in Holiness, the hosts unpack seven developments of spiritual idleness: dissipation (misprioritizing tasks), sadness (rooted in self-love), sloth (hatred of existence), useless industry (excessive communication), and general indifference to time.
• Dissipation’s Impact: Putting less important tasks first disrupts the hierarchy of goods, leading to a loss of peace and distractions in prayer, as Faber notes: “He who is diligent will soon be cheerful.”
• Sadness and Self-Love: Sadness, driven by self-improvement rather than God, gives the devil power over the soul, undermining spiritual progress.
• Sloth as a Culmination: Sloth combines dissipation and sadness, fostering a distaste for existence and duties, disrupting the tranquility of order (Aquinas’ definition of peace).
• Useless Industry: Faber’s critique of excessive letter-writing in the 1800s applies to today’s text messaging and social media, which fragment focus and reduce meaningful communication.
• Indifference to Time: Wasting time, especially on addictive platforms like YouTube Shorts, is a “stupid” sin that squanders the precious, irrevocable gift of time, which Faber calls “the stuff out of which eternity is made.”
• Focus and Presence: True focus requires saying “no” to distractions to prioritize God’s will, fostering presence in both daily life and prayer, as exemplified by a man eating lunch under a tree without multitasking.
• Leisure Done Right: Leisure must align with one’s state in life, be tethered to joy, and have a contemplative aspect, avoiding compulsory or utilitarian ends.

Notable Quotes from Father Frederick Faber:

• “Dissipation… consists in putting things off beyond their proper times so that one duty treads upon the heels of another, and all duties are felt as irksome obligations.”
• “He who is diligent will soon be cheerful.”
• “The soul of sadness is self-love… How many are there whose real end in the spiritual life is self-improvement rather than God?”
• “Nothing gives the devil so much power over us [as sadness].”
• “Time is the stuff out of which eternity is made… we shall have to give the strictest account of it at the last.”

David and Adam welcome Father Mike Schmitz to discuss the transformative power of prayer. With humor and candor, they explore the difference between merely saying prayers and truly praying, addressing how to cultivate a prayer life that aligns with God’s will. Drawing from Saint John Chrysostom and Fr. Thomas Dubay, the conversation emphasizes the universal need for prayer, especially for laypeople navigating the challenges of daily life, and offers practical insights for moving from rote recitation to a deeper, relational encounter with God.

Key Discussion Points

• Prayer for All Vocations: Fr. Mike Schmitz challenges the assumption that monks have a deeper prayer life, citing Saint John Chrysostom’s teaching that laypeople need prayer and scripture more than monks due to the “arrows and spears” of daily life—annoying bosses, irritating spouses, and bothersome kids. This resonates as a call for everyone to prioritize prayer, regardless of their state in life.
• From Saying to Praying: The hosts and Fr. Mike discuss the transition from reciting set prayers to engaging in mental prayer (e.g., Ignatian prayer, Lectio Divina). Fr. Mike shares a personal story of a silent retreat where a memorized psalm provided words when his own failed, highlighting the value of rote prayers as a foundation for deeper communion.
• Distractions in Prayer: The conversation addresses the common struggle of distractions, distinguishing between intentional distractions (e.g., checking a phone during prayer) and natural ones that God may use to purify prayer. Adam emphasizes the beauty of “wasting time” with God in contemplative presence, akin to an old couple silently enjoying each other’s company, versus being distracted by external devices.
• Why Prayer Matters: Prayer is an act of faith, rooted in the belief that time spent with God transforms us into the person He calls us to be. Fr. Mike compares prayer’s motivation to health practices like intermittent fasting: if you’re convinced it makes a difference, you’ll commit. Prayer changes us to love like Jesus, even when we feel inadequate.
• Overcoming Apathy and Ignorance: Referencing a humorous anecdote about a coach and player discussing “ignorance and apathy,” Fr. Mike stresses that convincing someone to pray requires sparking a desire to become more like Christ. Without an encounter with Jesus (the kerygma), prayer may seem irrelevant to those who don’t yet care to grow in holiness.
• Practical Advice for Laymen: Fr. Thomas Dubay’s blunt wisdom—“If you’re content being a mediocre dad or mom, don’t pray”—underscores that prayer is essential for excellence in any vocation. Fr. Mike encourages introducing children to mental prayer early, as seen in his summer camp where sixth graders learn Lectio Divina and Ignatian prayer.

Featured Gift

• Catholic Woodworker Rosary: Fr. Mike receives an heirloom-quality rosary from The Catholic Woodworker, featuring handcrafted wood beads built to last. The hosts highlight its durability, even with young children handling it, and promote the official Catholic Man Show rosary.

Spiritual Takeaway

Prayer is not just a checkbox but an act of faith that transforms us into the image of Christ. Whether through memorized prayers that anchor us when words fail or mental prayer that fosters intimate communion, the key is presence with God. Laypeople, facing daily trials, need prayer as much as—if not more than—monks. By committing to prayer, even amidst distractions, we grow in love and align with God’s will for our lives.

Call to Action

• Get a Catholic Woodworker Rosary: Visit catholicwoodworker.com to purchase an heirloom-quality rosary, including the official Catholic Man Show design, perfect for daily prayer.
• Practice Mental Prayer: Start with Lectio Divina or Ignatian prayer to deepen your prayer life. Set aside time daily, even if brief, to be present with God, trusting that it will transform you.

David and Adam share humorous anecdotes from their chaotic home lives—mice-catching kids, runaway cows, and pig feeder mishaps—before diving into a deep discussion on spiritual growth. Drawing from Father Frederick Faber’s Growth in Holiness, they explore five practical signs of progress in the spiritual life, offering insights for men seeking to deepen their relationship with God. The episode balances lighthearted banter with profound reflections on humility, perseverance, and living intentionally for Christ.

Key Discussion Points

Life Updates:

• Adam recounts his son Leo’s antics, including catching mice and feeding them into traps, and opening a gate, letting a cow escape during relentless Oklahoma rain. He also shares the challenges of a kitchen remodel, leading to household disorder and a mouse infestation.
• David discusses his pigs knocking over their feeder, eating through plywood, and his frustration-driven rebuild with metal siding, highlighting the manual labor woes of farm life.
• Spiritual Focus: The hosts explore Father Frederick Faber’s Growth in Holiness (published by Cor Iesu Press), focusing on Chapter 1’s five signs of progress in the spiritual life. Faber, a 19th-century Oratorian and convert, offers timeless clarity on Catholic spirituality.
• Contradictions in the Spiritual Life: Faber notes the spiritual life is full of contradictions due to our fallen nature, particularly the tension between knowing ourselves deeply while thinking of ourselves humbly. David challenges the modern adage that humility is “thinking about yourself less,” arguing that true humility requires rightly ordered self-reflection.

What Not to Do:

• Don’t Ask Your Spiritual Director for Progress Reports: Faber advises against seeking your spiritual director’s judgment on your progress, as it places unfair pressure on them and risks oversimplifying complex spiritual states.
• Avoid Arbitrary Benchmarks: Setting personal, artificial markers of progress can lead to disquietude, distracting from genuine growth and forfeiting graces.

Five Signs of Spiritual Progress:

1. Discontent with Your Present State: A desire to be holier, coupled with humility and gratitude for past graces, indicates progress. This discontent must avoid sloth (acedia) or unease with devotional practices.
2. Constant Fresh Starts: Persevering through repeated failures by recommitting to holiness (e.g., overcoming a persistent sin like pornography) is a sign of growth, reflecting perseverance.
3. Specific Goals in View: Actively pursuing a particular virtue, overcoming a specific fault, or adopting a penance shows intentionality, akin to a business plan for spiritual growth.
4. Feeling God’s Particular Call: An “attraction” to a specific fault to correct or pious work to undertake, guided by the Holy Spirit, signals progress. Not all experience this, but it’s significant when present.
5. General Desire for Perfection: A broad desire to be more perfect, if acted upon through prayer, penance, or zealous acts, is valuable but must be channeled into action to avoid spiritual stagnation.

Practical Reflections:

• Adam shares his practice of writing down elements of a “good day” (waking early, praying, reading, working hard, family dinner, early bedtime) to replicate satisfying days, aligning with Faber’s call for specific goals.
• David reflects on overcoming obsessive thoughts by offering gratitude to God, transforming burdens into opportunities for grace, illustrating the power of fresh starts.

Hot Takes:

• Faber’s claim that “we must not be without fear even of forgiven sin” sparks debate. David questions fearing forgiven sins, suggesting it doubts God’s mercy, while Adam interprets it as acknowledging lingering attachments or temporal consequences requiring atonement.
• Faber’s assertion that exact knowledge of our growth in grace is harmful is clarified as a caution against prideful self-assessment, emphasizing trust in God’s measurement over our own.

Featured Beverage

• Duchess de Bourgogne (Regular and Cherry): A Flemish red ale from Brouwerij Verhaeghe in West Flanders, Belgium. The regular version offers a refreshing, slightly tart complexity, while the cherry variant is overly tart and less balanced. Priced at $25 for a four-pack, it’s a rare find but best sampled if you enjoy sour beers.

Spiritual Takeaway

The spiritual life is not about mountaintop experiences or avoiding sin alone but pursuing a deeper relationship with Christ through intentional, humble efforts. Faber’s five signs encourage men to embrace discontent as a spur to holiness, persevere through fresh starts, set specific goals, respond to God’s unique call, and act on desires for perfection. By avoiding prideful self-measurement and trusting in God’s grace, we can grow in love and freedom.

Main Discussion

Wheat Harvest with a Scythe

• David’s Experience: David harvested two 45x45-foot wheat plots using a scythe, finding it soothing, peaceful, and in tune with nature despite being exhausting.
• Quotes Wendell Berry: “The means we use to do our work almost certainly affects the way we look at the world” (via an X account, @minahan8).
• Compared to last year’s sickle (felt “commie”), the scythe was efficient for small-scale farming; not practical for large-scale but satisfying.
• Kids raked straw (post-harvest, nutritionless due to seeding) for pig bedding or garden mulch; straw vs. hay explained (hay retains nutrition).
• Adam plans to borrow David’s scythe for his own wheat harvest, nervous about back strain.
• Wendell Berry Reflection: Hosts revisit Berry’s essays, appreciating his beautiful, idealistic conclusions but finding his reasoning insufficient (e.g., abandoning tractors would starve people).
• Compare Berry’s idealism to J.R.R. Tolkien and Guardini's Letters at Lake Como; both depict lovely worlds but lack practical solutions for modern challenges.

Christian Marriage and Pope Leo XIII

• Introduction to Pope Leo XIII: Adam introduces Pope Leo XIII (1810–1903), a prophetic figure who addressed modernity’s challenges (secularism, communism, liberalism) in the late 19th century.
• Known for Rerum Novarum (1891, Catholic social teaching), reviving Thomism in seminaries (to counter Nietzsche, Hegel, and communism), and engaging modern society.
• His encyclical Arcanum Divinae Sapientiae (1880) emphasizes Christian marriage as a divine, not secular, institution, foundational to society.
• Critiqued rise of divorce, moral relativism, and civil interference undermining marriage’s sanctity; argued church, not state, holds primary authority over marriage.
• Marriage as Trinitarian Image: Marriage mirrors the Trinity’s relational society, where spousal love is so real it produces a third (child), reflecting Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
• Secular view (Enlightenment-era and today) reduces marriage to a consensual contract, ignoring its sacramental, stable, and permanent nature.
• State has a role in regulating marriage per natural law, but church’s supernatural authority supersedes.

Ephesians 5 and Mutual Submission

• Scriptural Basis: Leo XIII references Ephesians 5 (footnoted), where St. Paul instructs mutual submission out of reverence for Christ, with specific roles: wives submit to husbands, husbands love wives as Christ loved the church.
• Secular society fixates on “wives submit,” ignoring mutual submission and husbands’ sacrificial love.
• Submission Defined: Adam posits submission stems from extreme trust (in a good relationship) or fear (in a bad one); David nuances that even small decisions involve trust or fear, and submission means aligning with another’s mission (e.g., heaven).
• Ideal marriage: Both spouses are so submissive they forget themselves, sharing one mission (heaven), as exemplified by Mary and Joseph (near-perfect).
• Practical Mission: Couples must articulate what “getting to heaven” means (e.g., prioritizing Mass over sports, family dinners, or vacation choices).
• Early marriage decisions set family identity, reducing conflicts when children’s desires arise; trust builds when both spouses prioritize each other’s salvation.
• Example: Blessed Karl of Austria to Zita: “Now we must get to heaven together,” requiring intentional, sometimes extreme steps.

Second Segment: Roles in Christian Marriage

• Husband as Leader: Husband is head of the household (per Genesis), leading with love, not dominance, kneeling beside his wife in prayer.
• David prays daily for the Holy Spirit to inspire Pamela’s intuition, valuing her as a “helper” (biblical term for Holy Spirit), taking her insights seriously for family decisions.
• Adam prays during Adoration for Haylee to grow closer to Mary, modeling humility and femininity.
• Leadership Analogy: Like business, where employees leave due to poor leaders, not the mission, wives stay committed if husbands lead with love toward heaven.
• Neglecting presence or duties undermines the mission, making separation easier despite shared goals.
• Formation: Husbands must prioritize prayer, Holy Spirit inspiration, and faith learning to pass tradition to children, adapting as family life grows louder and more complex.

Family Prayer Challenges

• David’s Routine: Observes “great silence” mornings to foster prayer and silence as a virtue, though young kids (e.g., 2-year-old Susanna) need reminders.
• Older siblings model behavior, reinforcing communal prayer (before/after meals, morning, bedtime).
• Adam’s Struggle: Excels at communal prayer but struggles to safeguard individual prayer time for Haylee (10 minutes of silent contemplation); sees it as his role to protect her prayer, and vice versa.
• Homeschooling complicates silence (starts at 6 AM when kids sleep); mutual submission includes guarding each other’s prayer time.
• Husband’s Role: Create space for wives to flourish in femininity, free from burdens men ideally handle, requiring intentionality.

Break 2: Return to Discussion

• Sacramental Calling: Marriage is a sacramental vocation for salvation, under church authority (Arcanum Divinae Sapientiae); natural institution (state-regulated) but primarily supernatural (church-governed).
• Polygamy isn’t against natural law, but church elevates monogamy as supernatural ideal.
• Instilling Marriage’s Importance in Children: In a secular world of promiscuity and dating apps, parents must:
• Model Complementarity: Display masculine men and feminine women (e.g., dresses enhance femininity, not mandatory) to show distinct, complementary roles.
• Shield from Technology: Delay exposure to apps like Tinder, which allure with shallow choice over marriage’s depth.
• Promote Virtue: Teach what to do (virtue) over what not to do, fostering human flourishing, not legalism.
• Measure Virtue: Name virtues (e.g., generosity, kindness) to give them value, like business metrics or Snapchat streaks, making them family goals.
• Set Mission: Reinforce family mission (heaven) through consistent leadership, building trust in parents’ heavenly intent.

Podcast-Exclusive Segment: Encyclicals and Legacy

• Leo XIII’s Legacy: Oldest pope at death (93), first recorded/photographed; addressed Freemasonry (1880s, less relevant today).

  • Barbecue Competition Judging: Adam shares his first experience as a barbecue competition judge at a local Catholic church and school fundraiser in Tulsa, where he was joined by his son Jude (assistant judge) and two priests.
  • Judged four categories: chicken, pulled pork, ribs, and brisket (Adam insists brisket is the primary measure; David (wrongly) argues for ribs).
  • 12 pit masters competed; judged on appearance, taste, tenderness, texture, uniqueness, and overall (max score 25).
  • Advice from Joe Martin’s son: Take one bite per entry to avoid overeating (48 bites total across 40 minutes).
  • Adam judged strictly (e.g., scores as low as 14, zero for appearance), while priests gave higher scores (23–24), highlighting differing standards.
  • Event fostered camaraderie among pit masters (12 hours together) and service to attendees, teaching kids sacrifice, friendship, and craft articulation.
  • Shout-out to Brian Schooley for organizing; Adam and David plan to enter as The Catholic Man Show next year, with Jim in a dunk tank.
  
  

  Main Discussion

  Wheat Harvest with a Scythe

  • David’s Experience: David harvested two 45x45-foot wheat plots using a scythe, finding it soothing, peaceful, and in tune with nature despite being exhausting.
  • Quotes Wendell Berry: “The means we use to do our work almost certainly affects the way we look at the world” (via an X account, @minahan8).
  • Compared to last year’s sickle (felt “commie”), the scythe was efficient for small-scale farming; not practical for large-scale but satisfying.
  • Kids raked straw (post-harvest, nutritionless due to seeding) for pig bedding or garden mulch; straw vs. hay explained (hay retains nutrition).
  • Adam plans to borrow David’s scythe for his own wheat harvest, nervous about back strain.
  • Wendell Berry Reflection: Hosts revisit Berry’s essays, appreciating his beautiful, idealistic conclusions but finding his reasoning insufficient (e.g., abandoning tractors would starve people).
  • Compare Berry’s idealism to J.R.R. Tolkien and Guardini's Letters at Lake Como; both depict lovely worlds but lack practical solutions for modern challenges.
  
  

  Christian Marriage and Pope Leo XIII

  • Introduction to Pope Leo XIII: Adam introduces Pope Leo XIII (1810–1903), a prophetic figure who addressed modernity’s challenges (secularism, communism, liberalism) in the late 19th century.
  • Known for Rerum Novarum (1891, Catholic social teaching), reviving Thomism in seminaries (to counter Nietzsche, Hegel, and communism), and engaging modern society.
  • His encyclical Arcanum Divinae Sapientiae (1880) emphasizes Christian marriage as a divine, not secular, institution, foundational to society.
  • Critiqued rise of divorce, moral relativism, and civil interference undermining marriage’s sanctity; argued church, not state, holds primary authority over marriage.
  • Marriage as Trinitarian Image: Marriage mirrors the Trinity’s relational society, where spousal love is so real it produces a third (child), reflecting Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
  • Secular view (Enlightenment-era and today) reduces marriage to a consensual contract, ignoring its sacramental, stable, and permanent nature.
  • State has a role in regulating marriage per natural law, but church’s supernatural authority supersedes.

  Main Discussion

  Minihan Household Adventures

  • Possum Incident: While Adam was away, his wife Haylee killed a possum in their chicken coop with a .44 Magnum (jokingly exaggerated), impressing Adam via text.
  • Snake in the House: Upon returning from a trip, Adam’s family found a large snake (not a rat snake, possibly a king snake) in their home.
  • A child’s blood-curdling scream alerted Haylee; Adam initially deferred to her but helped after learning of the snake.
  • Snake was fast, striking, and required corralling kids into a closet for safety; Adam trapped it using a box and cardboard, later regretting not feeding it to their seven roosters.
  • Diocesan Rat Snake Story: Adam recalls handling a 5+ foot rat snake at the Diocese of Tulsa early in his job, earning awe from coworkers and a social media post.
  
  

  Nashville Recording Mishaps

  • Forgotten Suit Pants: At a black-tie event in Nashville with Fr. Mike Schmitz, Matt Walsh, Michael Knowles, and Harrison Butker, David forgot his patterned suit pants, non-replaceable due to the unique design.
  • Father-in-law Dan O’Brien and Jim Spencer overnighted them via UPS, arriving 45 minutes before recording.
  • Equipment Failure: Their recording case’s main power supply cord was severed in transit, requiring significant pivoting.
  • David predicted the need to “pivot” before the trip, likening their adaptability to NBA players; the weekend involved constant problem-solving but was ultimately fun.
  
  

  Catholic Radio Station Launch

  • McAlester Station: David and Adam helped launch 90.9 FM in McAlester, Oklahoma, a full-power Catholic radio station built on a shoestring budget.
  • Located on parish grounds (no studio costs, using existing internet/power), it reaches McAlester’s community, including three correctional facilities (e.g., “Big Mac” maximum security prison).
  • Launched on the Feast of the Ascension (moved to Sunday in Tulsa’s mission diocese), aligning with the Great Commission to evangelize.
  • Aims to evangelize incarcerated individuals without the red tape of prison ministry; David gave a speech post-Mass, nearly upstaged by Adam’s readiness to intervene.
  • Prayer request for the station’s success.
  
  

  Eucharistic Procession in Tulsa

  • National Eucharistic Procession Stop: Tulsa hosted a stop in the nationwide procession, attended by 500–800 people (David’s estimate).
  • Counter-evangelists (not protesters) with megaphones followed the procession, slandering the Church; persistent but civil, they lacked goodwill due to rudeness.
  • Police (not necessarily Catholic) found them annoying; hosts advise listeners to prepare for similar disruptions at other stops.
  • Defense of Faith Question: David ponders if modern Christians are too pacifist compared to Crusade-era defense of faith, citing G.K. Chesterton’s The Ball and the Cross (an atheist’s slander of Mary prompts a Catholic to challenge him to a duel).
  • Asks Adam if the pendulum has swung too far from defending honor; discussion deferred to post-break.

  Second Segment: Defense of Faith and Holy Spirit Introduction

  • Defense of Faith (Continued):
  • Adam rejects pacifism as un-Christian but also opposes militancy (e.g., raiding abortion clinics); struggles with nuance of defending honor, especially for Our Lady vs. personal family.
  • Honor culture’s decline reduces cultural awareness of slander’s gravity; suggests a “shortsword” or “backhand glove” metaphorically, emphasizing prudence and charity in response.
  • No clear answer but encourages pondering the balance between passivity and aggression.
  • Holy Spirit Topic Introduction: With Pentecost approaching, David aims to explore the Holy Spirit’s role, often the least discussed Trinity person, using the Catechism.
  • St. Paul: Can’t say “Jesus is Lord” without the Holy Spirit; knowledge of the Father and Son depends on the Spirit.
  • Catechism (quoting St. Gregory of Nazianzus): Trinity’s revelation progresses—Old Testament reveals Father, New Testament reveals Son, and now the Spirit dwells among us for clearer vision.
  • Holy Spirit as “CEO,” executing divine action, though all Trinity persons act together (avoids heresy with disclaimer).
  
  

  Question on Divine Revelation

  • Adam notes God’s slow self-revelation (Father in Old Testament, Son over 30 years, Spirit post-Ascension) mirrors Jesus’ gradual revelation, suggesting a model for manhood.
  • Contrasts with modern “microwave culture” and social media’s demand for instant openness (e.g., sharing deepest secrets), lacking decorum and dignity.
  • David agrees: Over-sharing is “ennoble”; small, face-to-face communities historically allowed meaningful relationships without forced exposure.
  
  

  Break 2: Return to Discussion

  • Divine Hiddenness (Continued):
  • God’s slow revelation was for humanity’s readiness; social media fosters a consumer mentality where people “consume” others’ lives without true relationship.
  • Example: Atheist Bible scholars know Jesus’ life but lack relationship, unlike personal encounters built over time.
  • Holy Spirit’s Role: Through sacraments (e.g., Baptism, Confirmation), the Spirit subtly leads us to the Son, then the Father, reversing the Trinity’s condescension.
  • Catechism: Holy Spirit is the “oil” anointing the Son, encountered first in meeting Christ; a free gift requiring only acceptance.
  • Paragraph 1699: “Life in the Holy Spirit fulfills the vocation of man,” often taken for granted.
  
  

  Break 3: Confession Story

  • David’s Confession Experience: At the 2025 Oklahoma Catholic Men’s Conference, David confessed to a Lebanese priest he initially judged (due to communication concerns).
  • Priest’s directness (“This is very bad. You cannot do this”) was refreshing, avoiding excuses; best confession due to tough love.
  • Penance: Say “Come, Holy Spirit” 12 times throughout the day, not consecutively.
  • Impact: Noticing the Spirit’s quick response in daily moments led David to habitually invoke the Spirit, enhancing awareness.
  
  

  Podcast-Exclusive Segment: Fruits of the Holy Spirit

  • Charismatic Movement Hesitation:
  • Adam admits invoking the Holy Spirit transactionally (in tough situations) rather than relationally, due to mystery and past experiences.
  • Poor catechesis in the charismatic movement (1960s–1990s), influenced by Protestant culture (e.g., TV preachers), caused confusion; practices like “re-baptism in the Spirit” raise red flags.
  • Mother Angelica’s experience: Allowed charismatic prayers but later distanced herself, reflecting nuanced concerns.
  • Adam recognizes intellectual error in dismissing the Spirit (“throwing baby out with bathwater”) but struggles emotionally due to cultural baggage.
  • Fruits of the Holy Spirit: David shifts to Catechism’s teaching that the moral life is sustained by the Spirit’s gifts (unearned, permanent dispositions for docility).
  • Fruits (from children’s song): Charity, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, generosity, gentleness, faithfulness, modesty, self-control, chastity.
  • Encourages simple invocations like “Come, Holy Spirit” or the Jesus Prayer to acknowledge the Spirit’s constant work.
  • Praying in the Spirit: David references Fr. Mike Schmitz’s mention of “praying in the Spirit” (from Nashville interview), unsure of its meaning vs. regular prayer.
  • Cites biblical examples (e.g., Simeon/Anna “in the Spirit” at the Presentation); hopes to clarify with Fr. Mike later.
  
  

  Closing Thoughts

  • Takeaway: Increase awareness of the Holy Spirit through simple prayers (“Come, Holy Spirit”) to fulfill man’s vocation and sustain moral life.
  • Catechism Recommendation: Read paragraphs 683–780 for insights into the Holy Spirit’s names and symbols.

    • First weekend home in weeks; decided to spend time with family despite cold, rainy weather.
    • Spent 3 hours exploring ~40% of the massive expo (quarter-mile long).
    • All kids (except 2-year-old John) got pocket knives; Anna (Adam’s daughter) showed hers off at Mass.
    • Only one Band-Aid needed (Anna’s finger), considered a "miracle" for 4 pocket knives.
    
    

    Cattle Auction Experience

    • Adam recounts taking his 6-year-old son, Leo, to a cattle auction in Checotah, Oklahoma (hometown of Carrie Underwood).
    • First-time experience; fast-paced, intimidating environment with bids decided in 5-10 seconds.
    • Auctioneers provide rapid info (weight, heifer/steer, vaccination status) while cows move in and out.
    • David bought two heifers and accidentally bid on a bull, later corrected to a steer with help from friend Jimmy Ritchie.

    • Geology Career: Started in oil and gas in Tulsa post-undergrad, worked for a global company with offices in Perth, Cairo, Houston, etc.
    • Moved to San Antonio for a “skunk works” project; loved the ordinariate parish (Our Lady of the Atonement).
    • Realized geology wasn’t enough; aimed to become a business executive.

    Third Segment: Entrepreneurship and Risk

    • Oil and Gas Startup: Joined a 20-person company (down from 3,000 in corporate role).
    • Wore multiple hats, executed own ideas, gained confidence despite moderate success.
    • 2020 Challenges: COVID and negative oil prices (-$28/barrel) led to triage mode, layoffs (30 to 11 employees), and weekly vendor payment decisions.
    • New Venture: Co-founded Luminess Capital (real estate investment firm) with Chris, focusing on self-storage facilities.
    • Simpler than oil exploration; clear risks and opportunities.
    • Grew to 16 employees across four continents (U.S., Philippines, Zimbabwe, Panama, El Salvador, Mexico).
    • Rewarding to offer global team flexible work (e.g., no long commutes); 100% Catholic employees initially (unplanned, due to hiring in Philippines).
    • Entrepreneurial Mindset: Bet on skills, create opportunities for others, provide meaningful Christian work environments.
    
    

    Break 3: Return to Discussion

    • Parish Involvement: Karl emphasizes using professional skills to serve the local parish, not as a factory but as stewards of resources (money, buildings, beauty).
    • Example: Volunteering on finance and school councils, proposing longer meetings (1 to 1.5 hours) to solve complex problems.
    • Encourages men to offer expertise (e.g., landscaping, maintenance) to save funds for higher-impact uses (e.g., Catholic education).
    
    

    Podcast-Exclusive Segment: Evangelization and Magnanimity

    • Prestige and Humility: Pursuing professional excellence builds a platform for evangelization.
    • Example: JD Vance’s Catholic faith enhances his credibility as a statesman, inspiring others.
    • Opus Dei examination of conscience: Are you using professional prestige to spread faith?
    • Stereotype of poor Christians (e.g., Franciscans) shouldn’t deter success; wealth is a talent to steward, not squander.
    • Entrepreneurship Benefits: Creates jobs, fosters Christian work environments, offers opportunities (e.g., Good Friday off for Filipino employees).
    • Parish Engagement Challenges: Men’s clubs often feel like “another meeting”; Karl’s Knights of Columbus experience in San Antonio (casino trip focus) was uninspiring.
    • Solution: Social organizations should prioritize relationships (like Jesus’ three years with disciples), not formalities.
    • Example: Invite neighbors to casual parish events (e.g., BBQs) to share life, not just preach.
    • Stewardship Mindset: Treat parish resources (and personal gifts like homes, bodies) as God’s, fostering buy-in.
    • Example: Men landscaping parish grounds saves money for education and builds community stake (like past generations who built parishes).
    • Wichita’s model: Active parishioners get tuition discounts for volunteering time, creating a culture of giving.
    • Faith and Work: Kids didn’t shift Karl’s work focus initially (already driven), but now with six kids, he values flexibility to volunteer at school/parish.
    • Prayer to St. Joseph warns against “vain complacency in success”; Catholics should strive for constant excellence to reflect faith.
    • If Catholics excelled maximally, employers would seek them out.
    
    

    Closing Thoughts

    • Encouragement for Men: Don’t shy away from parish involvement; offer specific skills (e.g., “12 guys to solve a problem”) without needing formal workdays.
    • Example: Karl’s parish has 90+ RCIA candidates; needs space solutions.
    • Story: RCIA candidate Curtis saw friend Anthony’s Catholic conversion change him, sparking his own journey.
    • Magnanimity: Use God-given talents for greatness in secular and church life to build the Kingdom.
    • Final Cheers: “We’re on the Lord’s team, the winning side. Raise your glass! Cheers to Jesus!”

    Join 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 San Damiano College for the Trades. 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

    • 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.
    • The Dignity of Work: Drawing from Genesis and Pope St. John Paul II’s Laborem Exercens, 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.
    • 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.
    • 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.
    • 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.
    • 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.
    • 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.
    • 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.

    In this episode, David Niles and Adam Minahan sip on Brothers Bond bourbon, celebrate the election of an American pope, and share updates on farming and upcoming interviews in Nashville. The main discussion focuses on the importance of prayer, particularly in moments of temptation, drawing from scripture, saints, and practical advice for building a prayerful life. The hosts also promote their upcoming pilgrimage and Patreon support.

    Key Topics

    1. Celebrating an American Pope

    • American Pope Enthusiasm: The hosts humorously declare “everything is American now” with the election of an American pope, jokingly claiming spaghetti and the Catholic Church as American.
    • Cultural Shift: They playfully note the Church is now “more profitable” with an American pope, reflecting their excitement for this historic moment.
    
    

    2. Personal Updates and Farming Adventures

    • David’s Farming Efforts: David shares his experience planting 576 kernels of corn (16 rows of 36) without tilling, following a “Back to Eden” approach using wood chips. He discusses challenges with nitrogen depletion in the soil, leading to poor growth, and plans to amend it.
    • Family Teamwork: David describes a rewarding family moment planting with his daughters, using a power drill and raking to plant seeds, fostering teamwork and bonding.
    • Farm Life: Updates include a nearly completed garden fence to keep out rabbits, 41 chickens, and a rooster confrontation. David’s son, Luke, caught his first rabbit, soon to be fried for dinner.
    • Anniversary Trip: David and his wife, Haley, celebrated their 13th anniversary in Mexico, briefly mentioned as a joyful getaway.
    
    

    3. Upcoming Interviews and Patreon Promotion

    4. Discussion on Prayer and Temptation

    • Scriptural Foundation: The hosts focus on Matthew 26:41 (“Watch and pray that you may not undergo the test. The spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak”), reflecting on Jesus’ Agony in the Garden and the apostles’ failure to stay awake and pray.
    • Theological Importance of Prayer:
    • Union with Christ: Prayer during temptation unites us with Christ, who modeled prayer in distress, revealing man’s supreme calling (Catechism reference).
    • Humility and Dependence: Prayer crushes pride and fosters reliance on God, countering the modern tendency to act independently of Him.
    • Obedience: Jesus’ command to pray in temptation is reason enough to do so.
    • Saints’ Wisdom:
    • St. Alphonsus Liguori: Willfully neglecting prayer for a day is a venial sin, but neglecting it during temptation could be mortal, emphasizing prayer’s gravity.
    • St. John Chrysostom: Prayer is owed to God as a matter of justice, regardless of one’s state in life, with a suggested minimum of 15 minutes daily.
    • Origen and St. Jerome: The apostles’ failure to pray in the Garden shows the need for constant prayer to avoid falling into temptation, as temptation is inevitable but succumbing is not.
    • James Montgomery Poem: “Prayer is the Christian’s vital breath, the Christian’s native air, the watchword of the gates of death, he enters heaven by prayer,” highlighting prayer as essential for salvation.
    • Practical Applications:
    • Breaking the Cycle: Prayer disrupts the “daydream” of temptation, engaging rational faculties to resist sin’s allure.
    • Specific Prayers: Simple prayers like “Jesus, I trust in you,” the Jesus Prayer (“Lord Jesus Christ, Son of the living God, have mercy on me, a sinner”), “Mary, Mother most pure, pray for me,” and the St. Michael Prayer are highly efficacious during temptation.
    • Change Location: Physically removing oneself from the source of temptation (e.g., leaving a computer or bar) can weaken its pull.
    • Family Prayer: Quoting Fr. Clement Crock, family prayer offers a “holy violence to heaven,” infallibly drawing God’s blessings. The hosts discuss building habits like meal prayers to foster a prayerful family culture.
    • Habit Building: Regular prayer, confession, and examination of conscience build resistance to temptation over time, often unnoticed until reflected upon later.
    • Parenting Insight: A family’s rule allowing teenage sons to go for a run without questions to combat temptation (e.g., sexual) was praised for fostering open communication and practical solutions.
    
    

    5. Pilgrimage Promotion

    • Select International Tours: The hosts promote their October 2025 pilgrimage to Orvieto, Florence, Siena, Assisi, Cascia, San Giovanni Rotondo, Lanciano, and Rome, including a Wednesday papal audience. Listeners are invited to bring babies for a potential papal blessing.
    • Details: Visit selectinternationaltours.com for more information on this and other pilgrimages, sponsored by a trusted partner for over 34 years.
    
    

    6. Whiskey Tasting

    • Drink of the Episode: Brothers Bond Straight Bourbon Whiskey, a four-grain, high-rye bourbon at 40% ABV.
    • Tasting Notes: Classic bourbon flavor with a baklava-like finish. Despite the rye, it lacks a strong rye flavor, making it smooth and enjoyable.
    • Jim’s Rating: 3/10 on the “yummy scale,” surprising the hosts who found it delightful.

    In this lively episode, the hosts express enthusiasm for the election of Pope Leo XIV, share personal stories, including a wedding-crashing adventure in Mexico, and dive into a deep discussion on the virtue of humility, drawing from Father Beleckias' book Solid Virtue. The episode blends humor, personal reflection, and spiritual insights, with a focus on Catholic faith and living a virtuous life.

    Key Topics

    1. Excitement Over Pope Leo XIV

    • 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.
    • 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.
    • 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.
    • 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."
    • Prophetic Banter: A playful exchange about predicting the length of Leo XIV’s pontificate (jokingly suggested as 25 years) and his potential holiness.
    
    

    2. Personal Stories and Anniversary Celebration

    • 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.
    • 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.
    • 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.
    
    

    3. Eucharistic Miracle of Lanciano

    • 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.
    • 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.
    • 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.
    • Pilgrimage Plans: The hosts invite listeners to join their October 2025 pilgrimage to Lanciano to celebrate Mass in the presence of this miracle.
    
    

    4. Discussion on Humility

    • Source Material: The hosts draw from Solid Virtue by Father Beleckias, S.J., to discuss the three degrees of humility.
    • First Degree: Complete obedience to divine law, refusing to commit mortal sin even if offered the world or threatened with danger.
    • 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.
    • 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.
    • Practical Insights:
    • Humility is not thinking less of oneself but thinking rightly about oneself in relation to God and others.
    • Confidence and humility are intertwined, rooted in truth and trust in God’s will.
    • 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.
    • 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.

    6. Whiskey Tasting

    • Drink of the Episode: The hosts enjoy an 11-year-old Coal Ila whiskey from the Scotch Malt Whisky Society.
    • 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.”
    • Jim’s Rating: 3.89 on the “yummy scale.”

    Listener Question: Plenary Indulgence During Sede Vacante

    • Listener query: Can a plenary indulgence be received during a sede vacante (when there is no pope), given the condition of praying for the pope’s intentions?
    • Hosts ponder without definitive answers, suggesting:
    • Prayer is outside linear time, so praying for the next pope or the recently deceased pope’s soul might satisfy the condition.
    • Pope Francis’ intentions for the month (published in advance) could still be prayed for.
    • No prayer is wasted; God applies it appropriately, even if the target (e.g., a soul in hell or heaven) cannot benefit.
    • Encourage canon lawyers or experts to clarify, acknowledging their limited knowledge on the topic.
    • Brief mention of Polymarket, a prediction market where bets can be placed on the next pope, highlighting absurd betting trends.

    • Other host jokingly suggests suppressing the Jesuits, quickly clarifying it’s a jest, praising Jesuits like Father Mitch Pacwa and noting their potential as Dominicans.
    
    

    Main Topic: Time Management for Catholic Dads

    • Introduction and Context:
    • Host shares a chaotic day (e.g., a cow in the wrong pasture) to humorously underscore the need for time management, the episode’s focus.
    • Aimed at Catholic dads balancing work, family, and prayer life.
    • Philosophical Understanding of Time:
    • Time is a gift from God, not an enemy, akin to grace—available only in the present moment, not to be saved or earned.
    • Avoid the mindset of “just getting past this weekend” to reach holiness; every moment is an opportunity for sanctity through fulfilling one’s vocation.
    • Busyness does not equal holiness; faithfulness and resignation to divine providence do.
    • References a conversation with Dr. Carlo Broussard defining time as “the measurement of change,” emphasizing human agency in shaping incremental changes toward holiness.
    • Stewardship of Time:
    • Inspired by St. Louis de Montfort’s feast day and Mary’s fiat, time belongs to God and should be wholly available to His will, not divided into “God’s time” and “personal time.”
    • Stewardship involves giving 100% of time back to God, not just a portion, mirroring the Trinity’s interplay of love.
    • Children are the highest form of stewardship; parents form their souls to return them to God.
    • Practical Time Management Principles:
    • Act Promptly and Orderly: Inspired by Mary’s haste to visit Elizabeth, act promptly when God’s will is clear. Father James Schall (from The Life of the Mind) states, “Promptness in action flows from love of the good.” Avoid paralysis or using discernment as an excuse for inaction (St. Joan of Arc: “Act, and God will act”).
    • Guard and Structure Time: Time management is about saying no to lesser goods to say yes to greater ones. Protect time for intellectual and spiritual growth for yourself, your wife, and children.
    • Routines vs. Flexibility: Routines are crucial but should serve love, not become idols. Flexibility increases as habits form, especially with older children, but deviation without established habits risks chaos.
    • Calendar as a Reflection of the Soul: Father Schall’s insight: “We do not really believe what we do not live.” A calendar reveals priorities. Examples:
    • Daily 3 PM alarm for Divine Mercy hour to reorient toward Christ.
    • Scheduling monthly family confessions to ensure regularity.
    • Waking up early for prayer and reading, sacrificing comfort for spiritual/intellectual growth.
    • St. Alphonsus Liguori’s 12 Steps of Holiness: Focus on one virtue per month (e.g., mercy in April) to build family habits. Articulate and reinforce the virtue in daily interactions (e.g., emphasizing forgiveness during sibling disputes).
    • Well-Ordered Family: Suggests setting yearly, monthly, and weekly family goals with family meetings to track progress. Caution against overly businesslike approaches to avoid utilitarian family dynamics.
    • Balancing Business Principles and Family:
    • Critique of equating business culture with family (e.g., “we’re a family” in workplaces is utilitarian, as employees can be fired, unlike family).
    • Distinction: Applying business tools (e.g., goal-setting) to family is valid if ordered toward charity and disinterested service, not utilitarian ends. Every family member has a duty to serve others selflessly (per John Paul II and the Catechism).
    • Incremental Change for Holiness:
    • Holiness requires incremental changes, not instant sainthood (e.g., can’t bench press 500 pounds without training or become St. Francis overnight).
    • Reference to Solid Virtue (prior episode): Focus on amending faults in small, daily increments (e.g., half-day resolutions) rather than lifelong commitments to avoid overwhelm.
    
    

    Practical Tips for Catholic Dads

    • Prioritize Spiritual and Intellectual Time: Block off time for prayer and reading, even if it means sacrifices (e.g., earlier wake-ups, shorter lunches).
    • Set Family Virtue Goals: Adopt St. Alphonsus Liguori’s model to focus on one virtue monthly, reinforcing it in family language and actions.
    • Use a Calendar: Schedule critical spiritual activities (e.g., confession, prayer) to ensure they aren’t neglected.
    • Establish Routines with Flexibility: Build habits early, especially for prayer, but allow prudent flexibility as children grow and habits solidify.
    • Avoid Busyness as a Holiness Metric: Focus on faithfulness and love, not task volume.
    • Act Promptly: When God’s will is clear, act without delay, trusting He will guide.
    
    

    Drink of the Episode

    • Glentauchers 8-Year-Old Scotch (Scotch Malt Whisky Society, “Smokehouse on the Beach”)
    • From the Campbeltown region, with a coastal, briny flavor, blending Islay and Highland characteristics.
    
    

    Closing

    • Invitation to join the hosts’ October pilgrimage to Assisi, Italy, to see Blessed Carlo Acutis, St. Francis, and St. Clare (incorrupt saints). Assisi is a highlight, with two days planned for a deeper experience.
    • Dedication of the episode to the hosts’ wives, Pamela and Hailey.
    • Cheers to Jesus!

    • Discussion of Solid Virtue by Jesuit priest Father Balakius, published by Coresu Press.
    • Recollection:
    • Defined as watchfulness and awareness of God's presence, akin to an "earthly heaven."
    • Benefits: Prevents sin, reduces weariness, and fosters joy in God's love.
    • Three sources: solitude, silence, and avoiding news (to curb curiosity and anxiety).
    • Particular Examine:
    • Focuses on identifying and addressing the root cause of faults, not just external behaviors.
    • Analogous to treating the cause of a disease, not just symptoms.
    • Requires self-knowledge, possibly aided by friends, a spouse, or spiritual direction.
    • After correcting major faults, shift to perfecting daily actions and cultivating virtues.
    • Spiritual Warfare:
    • Involves a firm resolution to amend faults, renewed twice daily (morning and noon).
    • Resolutions should be short-term (half-day increments) to avoid discouragement.

    Summary:

    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.

    Key Topics:

    - 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.

    Quotable Moments:

    - “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.”

    ]]>Sister Mary Michael joins us for a conversation on Catechesis of the Good Shepherd, 12 steps, and our Mission.

    Summary:

    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.

    Key Topics:

    - 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).

    Summary:

    In this episode, we sit down with Tim Carney, a political reporter, think tank fellow at the American Enterprise Institute, and author based in Washington, D.C. Tim, a Catholic father of six, shares his unique perspective on raising a family in the nation's capital, challenging the stereotype of D.C. as a "moral wasteland." He discusses his latest book, Family Unfriendly: How Our Culture Made Raising Kids Much Harder Than It Needs to Be, and dives into topics like the declining U.S. birth rate, the importance of culture in politics, and practical ways to support families—from walkable neighborhoods to tax policies. Tim also reflects on the role of fatherhood, the need for cultural shifts, and why he believes having more kids (four or more!) can actually make life easier.

    Key Topics:

    • Life in D.C.: Tim debunks myths about Washington, D.C., highlighting its strong Catholic community, great schools, and notable figures like Justice Clarence Thomas attending Mass.
    • Writing & Work: As a political commentator, Tim has authored books on lobbying and corporate welfare, but his recent focus is on family and community—arguing that babies and strong families are vital to society.
    • Culture Matters: At AEI, Tim works in the new Social, Cultural, and Constitutional Studies department, emphasizing how marriage, kids, and human values shape politics and the economy—despite resistance from D.C.’s policy-focused elite.
    • Low Birth Rates: Tim addresses America’s falling fertility rate (1.62 babies per woman) and the growing political awareness of this issue, citing figures like JD Vance pushing for a pro-family agenda.
    • Policy Ideas: From local walkability for kids to federal child tax credits, Tim explores how government can support families without overreach, drawing examples from Hungary and France.
    • Fatherhood: He advocates for culturally elevating fatherhood as distinct from motherhood, encouraging dads to prioritize family over work and set an example in their communities.
    • Favorite Article: Tim shares the success of his Washington Post piece, “The Ideal Number of Children in a Family: Four at a Minimum,” which sparked debate and highlighted the benefits of larger families.
    
    

    Quotable Moments:

    • “Babies are a good thing. Life is good.”
    • “If you want fecundity in the sheets, you need walkability in the streets.”
    • “Childhood anxiety is mostly about kids growing up without unsupervised play. Parental stress is this false belief that you control them.”
    
    

    Where to Find Tim:

    • Book: Family Unfriendly – Available on Amazon or your local bookstore (if you convince them to stock it!).
    • X: @TPCarney
    
    

    Closing Thoughts:

    Tim’s blend of humor, policy insight, and pro-family passion makes this a must-listen for anyone interested in culture, parenting, or the future of American society.

    From Ennie’s grand-slam opening talk to Paul’s reflections on mentorship, this discussion dives deep into what it means to live a risky, faith-filled life as a man today.

    Highlights:

    • Ennie’s Home Run Start (00:11): Ennie Hickman kicks off the conference with a powerful talk that surprises everyone—described as a “grand slam” after setting expectations low with a “bunt.” We explore his rhetorical flair and the humor that had the crowd laughing, even if it took a moment to sink in.
    • The Abraham Joke (01:25): Ennie breaks down his viral moment—a hilarious yet profound take on Abraham’s obedience to God, from circumcision to the sacrifice of Isaac. It’s a wild reminder of the risks faith demands.
    • Risky Faith (02:22): Paul George and Ennie reflect on the moments in life where God calls us to step out—like marriage, trusting God’s plan, or simply saying “yes” when it feels insane. Living faith, they argue, should always involve risk.
    • Mentorship Matters (04:10): The conversation turns to the crisis of young men unwilling to take risks. Paul shares how mentors—like he was for Ennie—pushed him to grow, even calling him out on a landline in college about smoking weed. The group debates: Are young men missing mentors, or are they missing the willingness to listen?
    • Dopamine vs. Pursuit (06:54): Ennie and Paul discuss how modern distractions—gaming, phones, instant gratification—are keeping young men from chasing real goods, like relationships or purpose.
    • Trust and Friendship (07:54): The key to mentorship? Trust. Ennie recalls how Paul’s persistent friendship gave him the courage to make hard choices, proving love and accountability go hand in hand.
    • Raising Sons with Community (08:33): The group explores the power of men modeling faith and camaraderie for the next generation. From organizations like Fraternus to everyday “Uncle David” moments, it’s about inviting sons into the good life alongside trusted men.
    
    

    Key Takeaway:

    Faith isn’t safe—it’s risky. Whether it’s Abraham chopping off a bit of himself or a mentor calling you out on a landline, the path to manhood demands courage, trust, and a willingness to swing for the fences.

    Guests:

    • Ennie Hickman: Conference speaker and master of the well-timed Abraham joke.
    • Paul George: Mentor, speaker, and the guy who won’t stop calling until you step up.

What are some signs of tepidity?

    In this episode, we discuss:

    Those who are tepid:

    1. Have a horror only of mortal sin, and think very little of venial sin
    2. Perform the spiritual exercises negligently
    3. Prays without attention
    4. Confess without amendment
    5. Receives communion without devotion and fruit
    6. Perform their daily actions without a proper intention, without method or order
    7. Being intent on exterior things, give less their thoughts to God
    8. Content with mediocrity
    9. Neglect the pursuit of a higher virtue
    10. Avoid those who aim at perfection and eagerly seek the company of those who lead a life of greater laxity
    11. Who form a conscience of their own, by false principles
    
    

    Dangers that invariably accompany tepidity

    1. Falling into mortal sin. The tepid live in a state of continual imperfection, commit venial sins without remorse, and but seldom consider the malice of sin, and the motives which should prompt them to refrain from the commission thereof.
    2. That a tepid soul is on the point of being casts away, with disguise, by the Almighty God. 
    3. Lukewarmness
    4. The Risk of not dying a pious death.
    
    

    Remedies to banish tepidity:

    It is very hard to cure tepidity. The greatest sinners are often awakened from their death slumber by merely looking upon the crucifix and reflecting upon the Last Judgement.

    1. A fervent meditation to be performed every morning
    2. Pious and attentive spiritual reading every day
    3. A daily examination of conscience joined with the particular examen
    4. A short recollection, for at least half an hour every month

    Transcript :

    Intro: [00:00:00] Cheers. Cheers. Did you click it and have it work? Sort of an oaky afterbirth. What was that? She did tell me to get a beer and some cheese fries over at Eskimo Joe's. That's very nice, lovely. I only hope you feel this way when I'm done. Because I could destroy this night in two seconds. Why is that funny?

    Well, I think it's a bit funny to be trying to define nothing. Smooth as a bourbon on a summer day. Strong as a peated scotch in the winter night. This is a fair warning. The Catholic Man Show is about to begin. Slap some bacon on a biscuit and let's go! We're burning daylight! Welcome to the Catholic Man Show, we're on the [00:01:00] Lord's team, the winning side, so raise your glass.

    Adam 

    Adam Minihan: and Anne here, sitting with David Niles in studio, Juan is still not here, as we mentioned last week. Be moved. So he abandoned us, so he won't be here very often, but we have our good friend, father Bonaventure Chapman, Dominican friar, priest of God from up in Washington DC area. That's it. Coming back.

    We did two, we did two episodes with you last, last, last time you were here. We also done 

    Fr. Bonaventure Chapman: SCOTUS and I think art. 

    Adam Minihan: Art. Yes. And so it's great to have you back. for, thanks for like sorry, I'm fourth to record with us today. 

    Fr. Bonaventure Chapman: Oh, it's delightful. It's a, I love Oklahoma. It's always nice to visit Tulsa.

    Friendly people. It's different than the Washington D. C. kind of east coast people. So they're, yeah. 

    David Niles: Thank you. Friendly. Thank you. 

    Fr. Bonaventure Chapman: That was a huge compliment for us. Yeah, down to earth. 

    David Niles: I mean, I'm sure that there are some good people. Wonderful people. In D. C. 

    Fr. Bonaventure Chapman: I didn't say there were. Yeah, I didn't say there weren't.

    [00:02:00] I just said they're not good. Yeah. You know, it's like. No, they're just different. They're, look, I'll put it this way. They're not from Connecticut. That's it. The New Englanders are a whole different bag. Now, this is all tongue in cheek, but that's fair enough. Yeah, but yeah, just it's refreshing to actually be with ordinary people sometimes because in DC you just, and you're in 

    David Niles: city living.

    You meant good looking, I think. That's probably what you meant, but keep going. It's all right. 

    Fr. Bonaventure Chapman: Yeah, fair enough. Yeah, fair enough. My humility 

    David Niles: doesn't want to interrupt you. 

    Fr. Bonaventure Chapman: Yeah, you're doing great. Yeah, I mean, there's there's a lot of guns out here. There's a lot of guns in here. Yeah, so, you know, 

    David Niles: here we go.

    Fr. Bonaventure Chapman: Here we are. 

    David Niles: Guns are almost like currency around here. No, ammo. Ammos, Ammos definitely. Ammos guarantee, yeah. 

    Adam Minihan: So hey guys, we're drinking a Jebsons Bourbon Cask Strength. My mother in law got this for me. It is a bourbon that you can only get in the distillery up in Chicago, Illinois. So it's, it's cask strength.

    Like I said, it's like, see, almost 65 percent ABV. It is very strong. So we will drink [00:03:00] it very slowly in moderation. Well, we're on the Lord's team. Cheers. Winning side. So raise your glass. 

    David Niles: Cheers to Jesus. 

    Adam Minihan: Cheers. 

    David Niles: It drinks to me like a standard bourbon, like, this is just, this is, this is like, to me it's like, kind of gives you a pow in the face.

    Well, yeah, it is, like you said, it's, it's strong, it's strong, but the flavors that are there, it's like, yep, that is like classic bourbon. 

    Fr. Bonaventure Chapman: It's got heavy spice it seems that in the back, kind of swings around so yeah, it's got a lot of movement, it seems, that, I don't know how to describe bourbon bourbon.

    But if I were to describe Bourbon. Yes. I would say this has a lot of movement and a lot of spice. Ooh. And I have, I mean, that's, that's probably a horrible way to say it, but that's. 

    David Niles: I like that. I need more movement in my life. 

    Fr. Bonaventure Chapman: Yeah. Yeah, that's right. Yeah. Yeah. Chicago. That's great. My, my my grandfather, my mother was born in Chicago.

    My grandfather went to med school in Chicago. My brother did his residency pain fellowship at Rush in Chicago. So I love that. That's a great [00:04:00] city. That's how I really. Doing a pain, did you say a 

    David Niles: pain? 

    Fr. Bonaventure Chapman: Pain 

    David Niles: fellowship, yeah. That's there's a lot of, there's a lot of work there, there's a lot of like, funny stuff you can work with.

    There is, yeah, 

    Fr. Bonaventure Chapman: yeah. He's a specialist in pain surgery, and he was the 101st airborne flight surgeon, Afghanistan, two tours, and then finished residency, and now he's head of anesthesiology. Pain, now he's in charge of pain, yeah. Yep, in charge of pain fellows. So, 

    Adam Minihan: You, you're one of the many, a couple hosts of Godsplaining.

    Oh, yeah. There's five of us. Yep. Yep. That's right. So what are you what's been going on over there? 

    Fr. Bonaventure Chapman: Well, we've got a taping coming up. We've got some retreats. We're doing a, we just got back this started this year doing two person kind of prudent companion retreats. So Dominicans have this. You don't go out.

    We follow Guston's rule. And Guston always says, whenever you go out, make sure you go. with two or three. I didn't do that in this case, but I guess because you two are prudently companionable already. Yeah. Yeah. This is going really good so far. I'm here [00:05:00] to praise you, not to bury you. And so...]]>This week we welcome Fr. Bonaventure Chapman, O.P. into the studio because we got some questions...

And so we started doing, going out to different different parishes and different things would say to Dominicans from the God's point, and we'll do.

    Talk and then we'll do like a little episode, live episode, kind of break stuff as opposed to like a Q and a type of thing. And it seems to work out well, it's like a live audience, you could say. So it's just with father Gregory pine out in Columbus to do one on the Eucharist on sign and sacrament. We did a day, a day or a day and a half on that, and then we've got a retreat coming up.

    In the summer, we're doing the sanctifier by Louis Martinez yep. And then, yeah, I think that's the, the current stuff was, I've been kind of spreading out different retreats, days of recollection, and then this kind of our standard guest explaining, live explaining. I haven't, we haven't done object explaining yet.

    That's still my, I'm still pushing for this. Hmm. Where you have you, you have an interview with just an object like a fire extinguisher, and you ask questions to it, and and then you respond as if it has responded. And it hasn't gone well. It like hasn't, has not, no one's bought this yet.

    It's a [00:06:00] shame because I think it's, I think it'd be great. I think it'd be really, I'd be fascinated by it. You should 

    David Niles: start object number one, MAGA hat. 

    Fr. Bonaventure Chapman: Yeah. Yeah, that'll get some stuff. Yeah, a lot of really 

    David Niles: good responses, I feel like, from the MAGA hat. yeah. 

    Fr. Bonaventure Chapman: I mean, I mean, so I remember, I remember when I remember when, when, when that happened.

    And I remember watching, so it's 2016 right, and right before, and he's coming to announce his candidacy. Yeah. And I remember seeing, getting, walking down from that plane to announce this, and he's wearing that hat. And I thought That is the dumbest thing and then literally three seconds later. I said wow I'm 

    Intro: getting one 

    Fr. Bonaventure Chapman: brilliant Like it's just it's just a simple very simple nice You know clear the guy is nice the guy is good at marketing of what I believe I mean like when you ask what do I want?

    I and you said I say I make make America great again like it's who doesn't want who doesn't want 

    David Niles: America to be great Like hope 

    Fr. Bonaventure Chapman: and change. I don't know change. I don't [00:07:00] know if I want that You like forward. I don't know if I want that. Make america great again. That was just brilliant. I mean who doesn't want that, you know, I 

    Adam Minihan: totally agree.

    Fr. Bonaventure Chapman: Yeah, that was brilliant 

    Adam Minihan: Yeah, so tonight we thought because you know david we love having dominicans on on the show. We love being able to Pick your pick your guys's brain cuz it's like this thing you do you like study and preach, right? Yeah, this is like the things that you do. 

    Fr. Bonaventure Chapman: Yeah, it's not 

    Adam Minihan: good. I mean too 

    Fr. Bonaventure Chapman: excited here 

    Adam Minihan: Like 

    Fr. Bonaventure Chapman: I keep expectations at a reasonable level on the lower side of things.

    Remember, I'm just a philosopher 

    Adam Minihan: Well, yeah, 

    Fr. Bonaventure Chapman: that's why I'm not well, I'm not not a theologian. 

    Adam Minihan: Yeah. Yeah, so we just want to like We just have it we have questions that's too much and so like 

    Fr. Bonaventure Chapman: Yeah. 

    Adam Minihan: So can I start? Please. Are you 

    David Niles: ready to start? Shall we begin? Yeah, I think, 

    Adam Minihan: I think that'd be 

    David Niles: great. Should we ring a bell?

    Ding ding. Okay. Oh. So, all of our questions for you today [00:08:00] are un, unprepared. Right. We haven't discussed this. So Some of, just like, for clarity, some of our questions you might not have an answer for. Oh yeah. This might be one of them. 

    Intro: Mm hmm. Yeah, 

    David Niles: great. Do you have, like, is there a Dominican tradition, Easter tradition or anything?

    Like, do you have a favorite Easter thing? Like, what's the best part about being a Dominican? Oh, 

    Fr. Bonaventure Chapman: that's a great question. Yeah, what is the best, I mean the Pass. Yeah. Jesus, 

    David Niles: next question. It's tough because Jesus, next question. 

    Fr. Bonaventure Chapman: Yeah, it's tough because the triduum is the really, and that's not Easter, like the triduum is the best part of being a Dominican, I think.

    It's that, those three, those three days getting up to that, I mean we have You know, you do, we start, we usually use we have a 10 embrace service on Wednesday at the house. So I'm at the house studies teach at the Catholic university across the street in school of philosophy. And but I, so I live with 60, 70 brothers a lot of student brothers and assistant student master there.

    So I get to be around them and we have a big house. that has a great liturgy [00:09:00] great off choral offices, everything. It's like the, it's, it's a, you know, it's, it's a flagship kind of thing. It's, it's where you'd want your brothers, your Dominicans to be learning because it's, it's just, we can, a lot of our houses have smaller numbers, but the, the big, you know, at the monastery, the kind of the fortress, this is where things get done.

    So the liturgies are spectacular for the Triduum. And Dominicans, because we have a, we have a sort of, well, one long, long tradition, but two, a kind of penitential tradition. That we do penance as well in that time. We do celebrations as well, as far as I can tell. We do all things well. Sweet. But most things, yeah, yeah.

    Humility, we don't do well. It's actually known 

    Adam Minihan: worldwide. Humility is known worldwide. 

    Fr. Bonaventure Chapman: Yeah, that's exactly right. It's the Benedictine's thing that we don't want to, you know, That's theirs, take it off, you know, that's theirs. But you know what, you 

    David Niles: can have humility. Yeah, it's 

    Fr. Bonaventure Chapman: fine. You know, 

    David Niles: yeah, it's fine.

    We're going to take coolness. 

    Fr. Bonaventure Chapman: Yeah. So we take, so, you know, it's that time you're wearing the, you're wearing the kappa. So right now I'm not wearing the black cape, but they're wearing the kappa for the, for the triduum. It's a lot of silence. We have the [00:10:00] veneration of the cross has these beautiful aspects where we, we all get in a row and you, you have to go genuinely, you bow like three times in a row and finally kiss the cross.

    So you're, you're all in a row with each other. Doing this in pattern you're just you know stuck in this and also the the early offices my favorite offices of the year are morning prayer on holy saturday and on good friday because the The tabernacle is empty. All the the candles are gone and we've got a big, you know chapel everything just it doesn't feel Right.

    There's no water in the In a holy water font. You just go in and everything's, everything's pared down. So all the liturgical chants get clipped, in a sense. It's like nothing finishes. Yeah. And that just brings you into it because the, the liturgy is meant to be the, you know, the work of God, you could say, but it's, it's him doing the work.

    Right, and I get a sense of that in the Dominican tradition especially because the liturgies are well worked over so that if you're just there Then you can't but come closer to Christ [00:11:00] Excellent 

    Adam Minihan: So we're here with Father Bonaventure Chapman Dominican priest And we will be asking him I 

    Intro: don't know how many more questions we're going to get to How many more do 

    David Niles: you have in your back pocket?

    I don't know I have not counted Alright Alright, we'll 

    Intro: be right back I forgot about this. I gotta tell my, yeah. I'm telling my answers, that's right, I forgot about this. 

    David Niles: Do you feel like God is calling you to go on a pilgrimage? Well, for the last 34 years, Select International Tours has been leading pilgrimages to holy sites all over the world.

To this level of fatherhood, but here I am.  David Niles: Congratulations to you. Yeah, I've also been at this level. For a while. And it's very weird. You know, and it [00:05:00] sneaks up on you. Turn off the lights! A little bit. It does. It's not like one day You just decide. You put on a new pair of pants and then you're, you know, that kind of dad. You just kind of realize, at some point, you hear words coming out of your  Adam Minihan: mouth and you say, I haven't heard those words for 20 some odd years. And it was from my  David Niles: father. Right. Right. Like, Obi Wan Kenobi. It's like, that's a name I have not heard in a long time. Yeah, which is very weird. Well, congratulations. Thank  Adam Minihan: you. It's really good about it. Yeah, it's a true father. All right We're having this this evening Penelope straight rye whiskey toasted Barrel finished which I'm not sure what kind of finish  David Niles: What's the finish  Fr. Sean O'Brien: barrel? It was I  Adam Minihan: think actually metal all Yeah, all whiskeys are barrel  David Niles: finished. I don't yeah and barrel started and barrel  Adam Minihan: middled. Yeah but they do, oh, so here's, here's what it is. They, they finish the straight [00:06:00] rye whiskey in a new freshly toasted barrel. Okay. So like it's a toasted barrel finish. That's what it's not.  David Niles: Oh, it does say toasted. It's not toasted barrel finish. It's  Adam Minihan: toasted  David Niles: barrel finish. That is confusing because it's a different size. The word toasted, different line, different size,  Adam Minihan: different color. So, 100 proof. It's a rye whiskey, so it's gonna have a little bit of bite, a little bit of sting to it. Hopefully. We're on the Lord's team.  David Niles: The winning side. So raise your glass. Cheers.  Adam Minihan: Cheers to Jesus. Cheers. Cheers. To the, to the risen  Fr. Sean O'Brien: Christ. And to my goddaughter whose name is Penelope. One of mine. Ooh hmm. Cheers to her.  Adam Minihan: Shout out to Penelope. Jim, what do you think?  David Niles: Do you need some time before you, do you need some time before you come up with a yummy  Adam Minihan: scale? Okay. He's just so, I mean, he is probably a little rusty.  David Niles: I mean,  Adam Minihan: when you look at him, his palate is probably a, like, needs to get back acclimated too. Yeah.  David Niles: We'll let you, [00:07:00] we'll give, we'll give you give, we'll give you a minute or two, Jim,  Adam Minihan: we'll, we'll catch you on, on, on the flip side,  David Niles: I'm not a rye guy. I mean, I just don't drink it very often. Mm-Hmm. . It's not my preference and this is kind of, yep. It's a rye. I don't have a lot to say about it because I think it's probably good as,  Fr. Sean O'Brien: as rye go. How do you describe that rye flavor? I feel like there's like a low flavor, I don't know how to describe it. Is it that lowness  Adam Minihan: there that I'm, yeah, it's a, it's the, it's a little bit of that burn that, that strength at the very end, that catch that you catch. Also has, because it is toasted, you can almost like. Smell like burnt marshmallows. How do you toast whiskey? You toast the barrel. You put the barrel on the fire? Like the inside is all  David Niles: charred. Yeah, sometimes they'll have a barrel. Upside down on a conveyor belt and then they have like the biggest flamethrower you've ever seen and they just char it for like 15 seconds and Like they let they let it have it. Fr. Sean O'Brien: Mm hmm. Take that [00:08:00] whiskey. You're gonna be toast  Adam Minihan: Yeah Now father Sean you are the pastor of three  Fr. Sean O'Brien: parishes three parishes in two counties in two different counties The floor County has County Poto Spiro and Stigler of the towns And I'm also the pastor of every town in between.  David Niles: That's true. Even though there's no church. You know what? That is interesting. What makes it interesting? I just wouldn't have thought  about  Adam Minihan: Can you be a pastor without the Do you have to have a church to be considered a pastor? You,  Fr. Sean O'Brien: Oh, that's a good question. I never thought about that. You would have to have a territory at least.  David Niles: Right, yeah, so  Fr. Sean O'Brien: it like puts it in your And I would assume that you need a location to celebrate the sacraments so that would be the parish. David Niles: Yeah. I have never thought about, oh, being the pastor of a place where there's no church, but Missionary, you know? Yeah, but it makes, it does make sense that, hey, this is your  Fr. Sean O'Brien: territory. At least a territory.  Adam Minihan: Yeah, it's [00:09:00] your territory. I've always understood it to be like that you're the spiritual father of all of those, like you're, you're, you're in charge of those souls that are in your quote unquote territory. You know, it's not, it's just like here in Broken Arrow, we have Saint Benedict, But Father Brian Brooks is in charge of more than just the people who go into Yeah. St. Benedict. Walk through the  David Niles: doors. Actually, because whether you're Catholic or not. Right. He's got their soul. Yeah. So you have like the O'Brien triangle between your three parishes. Fr. Sean O'Brien: You can describe it as  David Niles: that way. Yeah. As you wish. That's how I like to, I like to, starting  Fr. Sean O'Brien: right now, I like to say walk into this triangle. You're toast. You're Catholic. This  David Niles: is  Fr. Sean O'Brien: You're like this whiskey. Game over. You're toasted. You're toasted. Flamethrower of grace upon your soul. Love it. Sacred heart burning you  Adam Minihan: up. And you, you've been there for how many  Fr. Sean O'Brien: years now? Going on completing three years. So two and almost three years. This is my third  Adam Minihan: year. Okay, and before that you  Fr. Sean O'Brien: were I was an [00:10:00] associate pastor here in Tulsa, at two different parishes, three here also in Broken Arrow, but at the other church, not y'all's place, St. Anne's, and then one year at the church we call St. Pius. Mm hmm. That's where I got my Spanish feet underneath me. Nice. Not very well. The people suffered my Spanish, but they suffered it with grace.  David Niles: Your Spanish  Fr. Sean O'Brien: now is pretty good, though. It's, it's good. I'm just thankful. Yeah, I do  Adam Minihan: it well, but so this is your first like,  Fr. Sean O'Brien: Pastor assignment? First pastorate. Yeah. I'm the first I'm the pastor. Nice.  David Niles: Yeah. And you are, how many years a priest?  Fr. Sean O'Brien: Eight. Think seven plus, I think this is almost eight then. Yeah. Yeah. About ready to complete eight years. Praise God. Praise love it. I love it. Yeah. This is  David Niles: the best eight best. That's, that's a, that's a big year. It's like, is it? Well, you know, there's like the seven, eight year. Seven eight is like. A good number. It's the, cause it's the days of creation plus one. Okay, I buy that. You know, like, sometimes in churches you'll see eight. Like eight pointed [00:11:00] stars.

If you think you may be too weak to withstand the manliness represented in the following program, please do yourself a favor and stop listening now. If you choose to continue in spite of this warning, If at any time you feel yourself overcome by the manliness, stop immediately and consult your closest medical professional.And now, for the not so fair, faint, or frilly, we present the Catholic Men's Show.Adam Minihan: Welcome to the Catholic man show. We're on the Lord's team, the winning side. I David Niles: was Adam Minihan: trying to figure out like how to [00:01:00] say, have a good holy week. You know the people? In Latin? No, just like in English. David Niles: You should ask Google Translate. Yeah, Adam Minihan: because that always works. Yeah, it's been, it's hit home runs for us every time we've done that.So many times. But I was like, you know, have an efficacious Holy Week. No, that doesn't, like, that isn't right. Like, have an intense Holy Week. I don't, I don't know, like, may you suffer well, David Niles: like, maybe a I mean, it sounds like the question you're asking really is, like, I have wondered the same thing about Lent.Yeah, you know because it's kind of the same thing. Yeah, like but specifically Adam Minihan: for a holy week huh, right as we're entering into the holiest week of the year David Niles: I mean it's like but it's really a question of a distinction of degrees not kind, right? In what you're like because if it was true about Lent, it's definitely true now.Yes, right And so I used to say I used to say something I think I used to say like maybe it was efficacious and efficacious Lent to you Adam Minihan: But like that just doesn't hit, you know, it's like, I don't know, like have an intensely prayerful whole [00:02:00] week. It was like for a David Niles: while. It's like, this is years ago. It's like kind of down with the happy Lent, have a happy, happy Lent.And you know, I hope you do have a happy Lent, but that's not like the thing I want to wish you. About Lent. Like, to me, like, the thing that is essential to Lent isn't that it's happy. It's happiness. Yeah. Right. You know, sort of like Easter would It's not, it's not, Lent's Adam Minihan: charism, so to speak. David Niles: Right, exactly.Yeah, it's not it's charism. That's exactly right. Whereas Easter, on the other hand, is like Joyful! Joyous! Yeah, like so, well, but, if I can remember it before the end of the episode, I will You'll, and I will just Cut us off. Stop, absolutely halt whatever it is we're saying about, saying at the time.Perfect. And just Throw it in. Yeah. And we'll see. Okay. And then we can carry on. Adam Minihan: I'm very excited to enter into the Easter season. Dude, me too. I cannot wait. It's gonna be so awesome. The beautiful thing about fasting is that you get to feast. You know, there's, there's seasons of feasting. Yeah. And if you fast well, you get to feast [00:03:00] well.You know, like, feasting, like, It means more. David Niles: Yeah, and it's great that we have, I think Palm Sunday is just, you know, the Church's liturgical calendar is a work of art, I think. We're in the middle of, you know, at the middle of Lent, towards the end of Lent, now entering into the most penitential week of the year, but we have Palm Sunday first, which is like the celebration of Jesus entering tri, you know, triumphantly into Jerusalem, you know, to, like, this is a, this is a Sunday to really feast.Amidst all Sundays, as we celebrate Christ's triumphant you know, like, entrance into Jerusalem. Yeah. It's like a, a real victory. It's a, a day of victory. So, and that's a beautiful thing to have right here before we go into the most penitential week of the year. Yeah. Adam Minihan: Yeah. Well, when we commit deicide, [00:04:00] David Niles: which is bad.It's bad. It's a bad It's one of our Well, it's not good, Adam. Adam Minihan: It's one of the ugliest marks for David Niles: humankind. Well, let's see how it works out for him, Cotton. Adam Minihan: Oh, man. Okay, so hey, we are Bold strategy. Bold strategy, yeah, but it turns out it, it was David Niles: It's, it seemed like a bad, it seemed like a fail, and then it turned out to be a pretty, you know, like, I imagine that's how it was for Satan.Don't you think that Satan thought, like, as he watched Christ hanging on the cross, don't you think he thought he was winning, or something? I imagine that that was a Yeah, probably some Like a big bait and switch. On the devil. Yeah, you know like when all of a sudden he realized what he's back. I was like rooting for him like I, you know, like, deceived one of his own apostles, his, like, inner circle, into betraying him [00:05:00] and getting him killed.And now Only to realize, that's what's the, that, you know, like, AGH! Adam Minihan: Now the gates of heaven are all open. Right, yeah, it's like, that's a big backfire. That is, yeah. So this evening, you know what's not a big backfire, is this whiskey we're having this evening. It's so good. Wyoming whiskey, we've had Wyoming whiskey on the show several times, this is the double cask.I gotta tell you, my dad actually asked me, he was going to a friend's house not too long ago, and he said, hey, what's a good bourbon that's not very expensive to bring over to their house? And I said, listen, and we get this question a lot from people, they email us or text us or something like that, asking us, hey, what's a bourbon?Here's my go tos, okay? So for bourbons, If you can find Wyoming whiskey, David Niles: that's the, that's the win. Hard to find here in Oklahoma, a little bit. It, you can, you, you can find it, but. It's, it's cheap, you know, it's. So what was this, like 35, maybe 40 bucks? Yeah, it's under 40 for sure. Yeah, and this is the double cask.Right. The, the regular is even [00:06:00] cheaper. And it's so Adam Minihan: smooth. And it's so good. Yeah, so my dad couldn't find Wyoming whiskey. Cause it's...]]>Adam and David reflect on what some of the Church Fathers and early Christian saints said about Jesus in the Agony of the Garden.

Wyoming whiskey, we've had Wyoming whiskey on the show several times, this is the double cask.I gotta tell you, my dad actually asked me, he was going to a friend's house not too long ago, and he said, hey, what's a good bourbon that's not very expensive to bring over to their house? And I said, listen, and we get this question a lot from people, they email us or text us or something like that, asking us, hey, what's a bourbon?Here's my go tos, okay? So for bourbons, If you can find Wyoming whiskey, David Niles: that's the, that's the win. Hard to find here in Oklahoma, a little bit. It, you can, you, you can find it, but. It's, it's cheap, you know, it's. So what was this, like 35, maybe 40 bucks? Yeah, it's under 40 for sure. Yeah, and this is the double cask.Right. The, the regular is even [00:06:00] cheaper. And it's so Adam Minihan: smooth. And it's so good. Yeah, so my dad couldn't find Wyoming whiskey. Cause it's hard to find, like you mentioned. Yeah, David Niles: in other states, the closer you get to Wyoming. If you're in Wyoming, this is at every grocery store, it's at every liquor store, and it's like 30 bucks.Yeah. It's really cheap. Adam Minihan: So I told them like, Wyoming whiskey is a good one. 1792, I really like. Yeah. It's one that has a great presentation bottle. It's a cheaper whiskey. The whiskey is good. It's smooth. It doesn't have a harsh bite. It's not, it's not David Niles: like, uberly complex. Right. But it's, but it's good.It's a easy drinking. Right. Yeah. Not going to offend anybody. Everyone's going to enjoy it and have a good time. Buffalo Trace is Adam Minihan: another one. Eagle Rare is another one. You know, there's, there's several. Anyway, it was really funny because he got there, he brought 1792. He got there, somebody else had brought a Wyoming whiskey, and so he had a chance to try both.Huh. And he said, he really liked the 1792, but he said, the Wyoming whiskey was just so smooth. Yeah. And so David Niles: It [00:07:00] really is, and everything I've had from them is all good. Yeah. Every single Adam Minihan: thing. This one is, so again, double cask, it's a straight bourbon whiskey finished in sherry casks, so it has a little sweetness at the end there, which is nice because it's you know 50 percent ABV.The whiskey gets its color and character from the cask in which it ages and matures. This double cask whiskey goes through the process twice. The first five years in the barrel makes it a bourbon. The sherry cask adds a nice touch of sweetness and brings out the best in the spirit to deliver superior smoothness and drinkability.You can drink it on ice with twist. And anything nice. David Niles: You know, okay. That is another thing I don't, I'm not a ice in my whiskey guy. But if you have every now and then you want to make a drink and if you, all you have are nice scotches and expensive bourbons. You're not going to want to make, well you might make an old fashioned out of a nice, a nice [00:08:00] bourbon, but this is a whiskey that I'm not afraid to, oh yeah, like, mix in a drink, because it just, it doesn't cost very much, right, so like sure, whatever, even though I'm I always drink it neat and straight, like a man.It's so good. Adam Minihan: So we're on the Lord's team. The winning side. David Niles: So raise your glass. Cheers to Jesus. Cheers. And the last thing I'll say about Wyoming whiskey is it's just kind of a cool story. It's not like a story of ancient tradition, like every single whiskey distiller tries to present themselves.Right. Basically it's all made in this tiny town in Wyoming. And I think they Yeah, I think they employ like Almost the entire town, like almost everybody there because it's a, it's a small town. distillery. And so it really is become like a local, you know, everybody's really proud of the product that they make there.Yeah. You just like to see that.

There are still four eggs that The broody hen is sitting on. We'll see if they hatch. Okay. It's been exciting. Yeah. You know, between having piglets and now baby chicks I did want to ask for prayers because I, if I can borrow a trailer, if, If my buddy Robert who is a loyal, he's your, we're, our buddy Robert, one of the best guys, I mean, really, and he also has a nice trailer that he lets me borrow anytime I want, and I just text him this evening, like, hey, can I borrow your trailer tomorrow, and I haven't heard back from him yet, but the Cattle Auction is tomorrow, okay, and if you guys remember the story about the last time I went to the Cattle Auction, the hilarious debacle, yes, I'm about trying to, trying to buy, I don't know what you call [00:10:00] it.Deformed is maybe the best, the most, the politest word I can think of to describe this cow. But it's really cheap, right? So, I just would like prayers that I don't humiliate myself again. Adam Minihan: Or, That you do for the sake of your David Niles: humility. And if I do, if I do humiliate myself, that I get a lot of traction out of it.You know, that I, that I really, really lean into it, and like it makes a big difference in my life. And just appreciate it. Yeah, that it's like something that really, Helps me grow. to God. Yeah, exactly, and isn't wasted as just a humiliating moment in a funny story.

Holding them up. Telling them like colors. We hadn't practiced yet. The first scrimmage was like the practice. So there was some frustration on my part. Yeah.

And one of the priests made the comment, like, Oh man, I don't know if mine makes it much further than, like, ten feet. I'm And you know, like, I just, you know, I just can't do it, I mean, ten feet, that's about my max, as far as I can, my blessing just doesn't reach further than that.And another guy was like, I think mine goes, like, probably thirty yards. And then Father John O'Neill was like, you guys gotta work on [00:14:00] this. Mine goes a long way. I mean, like, hundreds and hundreds of yards.

    • Importance of the love for one another
    • Detachment from all created things
    • True Humility
    • Virtue inspires love
    
    

    “I shall mention some things that are necessary for those who seek to follow the way of prayer; so necessary that even if these persons are not very contemplative, they can be far advanced in the service of the Lord if they possess these things.”

    We exist and desire to be loved and to love. St. Thomas Aquinas lists three appetites that are the basis for three loves. "And in each of these appetites, love is the principle of motion of the one tending into the end loved."

    • What are appetites?
    • What is the difference between natural, sensitive, and intellectual appetites?
    • How do those relate to love?

    100 years ago, if you were talking about teenagers, no one would know what you were talking about. What are the ramifications of creating this new category in society and in the Church?

    When teenagers were revoked from the adults category, there were isolated into their own classification. Not grouped with adults meant they were able in many ways to continue the way of life they knew for their whole existence but with more bodily maturity too.

    Here are a few points of discussion:
    • 2 age categories for all of time: Adults and Children
    • Culture of the 1960's and 1970's
    • Youth culture over adult culture
    • God and the faith are "ever ancient and ever new" not forever young
    • What are the effects of this in youth ministry?
    • Maturity is restrained and unfree, bound to God and the crosses He sends and the people He binds us to. True freedom is not youthful unattachment, but the loss of the types of freedoms the world pursues

I’d like to welcome you to this course on Aquinas and the Eucharist where we’ll be looking at what Aquinas says about the Eucharist in his Summa Theologiae, tertia pars, questions 73-83. I’d like to thank Adam and David for this opportunity to share the course with you, which is a token of their appreciation for your support of the show—a support that I would strongly encourage you to continue in. I think you’re going to enjoy going through this course on the Eucharist because Aquinas has some great things to say about it. And, of course, it’s always to geek out on this stuff. I hope that you have as much fun as I will have teaching it. Aquinas divides his treatment of the Eucharist into seven major themes or aspects of the Sacrament and treats each with one or several different “Questions,” which are basically further subpoints to make about those major aspects. And each of these Questions are further divided into articles, or what Aquinas calls, “points of inquiry.” Each of the lessons for this course will ordinarily deal with a single question. But there will be times when we have to divide a question into two lessons in order to do justice to it. For example, Question 75 is so packed and dense that we’ll need two lessons to do it justice. The methodology that I’ll use is simpe: read the text and offer commentary as we go. Some things can be received upon an initial reading. Others, however, not so much. Sometimes there is a need for further commentary. And I’ll do my best to provide that for you. Also, my goal is to outline Aquinas’s thought in a way that easily digestible, giving summaries of the various arguments with premises and conclusions. I know it helps me to keep track of exactly what Aquinas is saying because it makes explicit what Aquinas often is saying implicitly. Now, before we begin diving into Question 73 in this lesson, it’s important that we look at Aquinas’s outline of the material that he will be going through on the Eucharist. Aquinas says there are seven major aspects of the Eucharist to consider:
    • The sacrament itself (Question 73)
    • Its matter (Questions 74-77)
    • Its form (Question 78)
    • Its effects (Question 79)
    • The use or receiving of the sacrament (Questions 80-81)
    • The minister (Question 82)
    • The rite of the sacrament (Question 83)
    
    In this lesson, we’ll start with Question 73, which deals with the sacrament itself. It’s divided up into 6 articles, or as Aquinas puts it, “six points of inquiry.”
    1. ARTICLE 1: Is the Eucharist a sacrament?
    
      Commentary:   What is a sacrament?   A sense perceptible sign that effects what it signifies.   So the question here is: Does the bread effect what it signifies, namely, the body and blood of Jesus?  
    1. Aquinas’s Answer: Yes
    
      [An appeal to authority] “On the contrary, It is said in the Collect [*Postcommunion "pro vivis et defunctis"]: "May this Thy Sacrament not make us deserving of punishment."   [Aquinas’s own reasoning] “I answer that, The Church's sacraments are ordained for helping man in the spiritual life. But the spiritual life is analogous to the corporeal, since corporeal things bear a resemblance to spiritual. Now it is clear that just as generation is required for corporeal life, since thereby man receives life; and growth, whereby man is brought to maturity: so likewise food is required for the preservation of life. Consequently, just as for the spiritual life there had to be Baptism, which is spiritual generation; and Confirmation, which is spiritual growth: so there needed to be the sacrament of the Eucharist, which is spiritual food.”   Summary:   Is the Eucharist a sacrament?   Yes!   What is the reason why the Eucharist is a sacrament?   There is a need for the preservation of the spiritual life.   A summary of Aquinas’s argument?   P1:  The purpose of the sacraments is to help man in the spiritual life. P2:  The spiritual life patterns the corporeal life in generation, growth, and preservation of such life. C1:  Therefore, there should be sacraments that correspond with generation, growth, and the preservation of such life. P3:  There are sacraments that correspond to generation and growth—baptism and Confirmation respectively. C2:  Therefore, there must be a sacrament that corresponds to the preservation of life—i.e., the Eucharist.  
    1. Reasons Given for Why the Eucharist is Not a Sacrament (Objections and Replies)
    
      Intro  
    • Each of the objections provides a reason why the Eucharist is thought not to be sacrament.
    • Each of the objections basically takes the form of a modus tollens argument:
      • “If the Eucharist were a sacrament, then X. But not X. Therefore, the Eucharist is not a sacrament.”
        • g., If raining, then wet; not wet; therefore, not raining.
        
        
      
      
    
     
    1. Reason #1: Confirmation and the Eucharist would be ordained to the same end of perfection, which can’t be.
    
      “Objection 1.
    • It seems that the Eucharist is not a sacrament. For two sacraments ought not to be ordained for the same end, because every sacrament is efficacious in producing its effect.
    • Therefore, since both Confirmation and the Eucharist are ordained for perfection, as Dionysius says (Eccl. Hier. iv), it seems that the Eucharist is not a sacrament, since Confirmation is one, as stated above (III:65:1; III:72:1).”
    
      Summary: P1:  If the Eucharist were a sacrament, then it wouldn’t be ordained to the same end as Confirmation, i.e., perfection. P2:  But the Eucharist is ordained to the same end as Confirmation, i.e., perfection. C1:  Therefore, the Eucharist is not a sacrament.   Reply: The objection runs on a vague understanding of “perfection”   Reply to Objection 1. “Perfection is twofold . . .
    • The first lies within manhimself; and he attains it by growth: such perfection belongs to Confirmation.
    • The other is the perfection which comes to manfrom the addition of food, or clothing, or something of the kind; and such is the perfection befitting the Eucharist, which is the spiritual”
    
      Summary: P1:  The Eucharist would have the same identical end as Confirmation, and thus not be distinct from Confirmation, if and only if the perfection that the Eucharist achieves is identical to the perfection that Confirmation achieves. P2:  But the perfection that the Eucharist achieves is not identical to the perfection that Confirmation achieves.
    • [Recall, perfection of Confirmation lies within man himself. The perfection of the Eucharist comes to man from the outside].
    
    C1:  Therefore, the Eucharist doesn’t have the exact same end as Confirmation and thus is distinct from it.  
    2. Reason #2: The species of bread and wine would produce Christ’s true body like water produces spiritual cleansing, which can’t be.
    
      Commentary:
    • Note on “species”—The Latin word species means, “a seeing, view, look; a sight; an external appearance; a show or display.”
    • It’s in this sense that he’s using it. He’s not using it in the Aristotelian sense of a species that divides up a genera.
    
      “Objection 2.
    • Further, in every sacrament of the New Law, that which comes visibly under our senses causes the invisible effect of the sacrament, just as cleansing with water causes the baptismal character and spiritual cleansing, as stated above (III:63:6; III:66:1,3,7).
    • But the species of bread and wine, which are the objects of our senses in this sacrament, neither produce Christ's true body, which is both reality and sacrament [res et sacramentum], nor His mystical body, which is the reality only in the Eucharist [res tantum].
      • Commentary: Aquinas is drawing on scholastic threefold dimension of each of the sacraments: sacramentum tantum [sign only], res et sacramentum [reality and sign], and res tantum [the reality only, which basically refers to the primary and secondary effects].
      • For the Eucharist, the sacramentum tantum [sign only] is the bread and win. The res et sacramentum [reality and sign] is the actual body and blood of Christ. The res tantum [reality only] is the union of members within the body of Christ, which is the primary effect. The secondary effect is spiritual refreshment.
      
      
    • Therefore, it seems that the Eucharist is not a sacrament of the New Law.”
    
      Reply: The objection operates on a flawed assumption as to the nature of the sacrament of baptism and the cause of its spiritual efficacy ...]]>AQUINAS ON THE EUCHARIST QUESTION 73   INTRODUCTION Hey patreons of the Catholic Man Show, Karlo Broussard here.

    2. Reason #2: The species of bread and wine would produce Christ’s true body like water produces spiritual cleansing, which can’t be.
    
      Commentary:
    • Note on “species”—The Latin word species means, “a seeing, view, look; a sight; an external appearance; a show or display.”
    • It’s in this sense that he’s using it. He’s not using it in the Aristotelian sense of a species that divides up a genera.

The res tantum [reality only] is the union of members within the body of Christ, which is the primary effect. The secondary effect is spiritual refreshment.
      
      
    • Therefore, it seems that the Eucharist is not a sacrament of the New Law.”
    
      Reply: The objection operates on a flawed assumption as to the nature of the sacrament of baptism and the cause of its spiritual efficacy   “Reply to Objection 2.
    • The water of Baptism does not cause any spiritual effect by reason of the water, but by reason of the power of the Holy Ghost, which power is in the water.
      • [evidence #1] Hence on John 5:4, "An angel of the Lord at certain times," etc.,
      • [evidence #2] Chrysostom observes: "The water does not act simply as such upon the baptized, but when it receives the grace of the Holy Ghost, then it looses all sins."
      
      
    • But the true body of Christ bears the same relation to the species of the bread and wine, as the power of the Holy Ghost does to the water of Baptism:
    • hence the species of the bread and wine produce no effect except from the virtue of Christ's true body.”
    
     
    3. Reason #3: The Eucharist would be perfected by the use of the matter instead of the consecration, which is absurd.
    
      “Obection 3.
    • Further, sacraments of the New Law, as having matter, are perfected by the use of the matter, as Baptism is by ablution [ablutione—act of washing], and Confirmation by signing with chrism.
    • If, then, the Eucharist be a sacrament, it would be perfected by the use of the matter [the bread and wine], and not by its consecration.
    • But this is manifestly false, because the words spoken in the consecration of the matter are the form of this sacrament, as will be shown later on (III:78:1).
    • Therefore the Eucharist is not a sacrament.”
    
      Reply: The Eucharist is unique in relation to the other sacraments such that the sacrament is completed by the words of consecration without the use of matter being applied to the recipient.  
    • “A sacrament is so termed because it contains something sacred.
    • Now a thing can be styled sacred from two causes; either absolutely, or in relation to something else.
      • The difference between the Eucharist and other sacraments having sensible matter is that whereas the Eucharist contains something which is sacred absolutely, namely, Christ's own body;
      • the baptismal water contains something which is sacred in relation to something else, namely, the sanctifying power: and the same holds good of chrism and such like.
      
      
    • Consequently, the sacrament of the Eucharist is completed in the very consecration of the matter [the absolute option], whereas the other sacraments are completed in the application of the matter for the sanctifying of the individual [the “in relation to something else” option].
    • “And from this follows another difference.
      • For, in the sacrament of the Eucharist, what is both reality and sacrament [the body of Christ] is in the matter itself. But what is reality only [the effect, in this case the secondary effect], namely, the grace bestowed, is in the recipient;
      • whereas in Baptism both are in the recipient, namely, the character, which is both reality and sacrament, and the grace of pardon of sins, which is reality only. And the same holds good of the other sacraments.”
      
      
    
     
    1. ARTICLE 2: Is the Eucharist one sacrament or several?
    
     
    1. Aquinas’s Answer: One
    
      [For his appeal to authority, he appeals to St. Paul] “On the contrary, The Apostle says (1 Cor. 10:17): "For we, being many, are one bread, one body, all that partake of one bread": from which it is clear that the Eucharist is the sacrament of the Church's unity. But a sacrament bears the likeness of the reality whereof it is the sacrament. Therefore the Eucharist is one sacrament.”   “I answer that, As stated in Metaph. v, a thing is said to be one, not only from being indivisible, or continuous, but also when it is complete;
    • [e.g.,] thus we speak of one house, and [e.g.,] one man.
    
      A thing is one in perfection, when it is complete through the presence of all that is needed for its end;
    • g., as a man is complete by having all the members required for the operation of his soul, and
    • g., a house by having all the parts needful for dwelling therein.
    
      And so this sacrament is said to be one.
    • Because it is ordained for spiritual refreshment, which is conformed to corporeal refreshment. [this is the end]
    
      [He now moves to the articulate all that is needed for the end of spiritual refreshment—Christ’s body and blood] Now there are two things required for corporeal refreshment, namely, food, which is dry sustenance, and drink, which is wet sustenance.   Consequently, two things concur for the integrity of this sacrament, to wit, spiritual food and spiritual drink, according to John: "My flesh is meat indeed, and My blood is drink indeed."   Therefore, this sacrament is materially many [all that is needed for the end], but formally and perfectively one.” [because there is one end]   SUMMARY:   Is the Eucharist one or several?   It is one!   What is the reason why the Eucharist is one sacrament?   Upon the consecration of bread and wine the sacrament has that which is necessary to make it complete and thereby perfect for spiritual nourishment—namely,  Christ’s body and blood.   A summary of Aquinas’s argument?   P1:  When a sacrament has that which is necessary for it to be complete and thereby perfect it is one. P2:  The Eucharist requires both Christ’s body and blood to be complete for spiritual refreshment. P3:  The Eucharist is both Christ’s body and blood. C1:  Therefore, the Eucharist has that which is necessary for it to be complete and thereby perfect. C2:  Therefore, the Eucharist is one.  
    1. Reasons Given Why the Eucharist is not One (Objections and Replies)
    
      Introduction:
    • Each of the objections is a reason why the Eucharist is not one.
    • Unlike the previous article, not all of these objections take the form of a modus tollens.
    
     
    1. Reason #1: The Collect of the Mass speaks of the Eucharist as a plurality of sacraments
    
      “Objection 1.
    • It seems that the Eucharist is not one sacrament but several, because it is said in the Collect [*Postcommunion "pro vivis et defunctis"]: "May the sacraments which we have received purify us, O Lord": and this is said on account of our receiving the Eucharist.
    • Consequently the Eucharist is not one sacrament but several.”
    
      Reply: There is a sense in which the Eucharist is many and yet in another sense in which it is one   “Reply to Objection 1. The same Collect at first employs the plural: "May the sacraments which we have received purify us"; and afterwards the singular number: "May this sacrament of Thine not make us worthy of punishment": so as to show that this sacrament is in a measure [quodammodo—in a certain manner] several, yet simply one.”  
    2. Reason #2: There are many signs of the Eucharist (bread and wine).
    
      “Objection 2.
    • Further, it is impossible for genera to be multiplied without the species being multiplied: thus it is impossible for one man to be many animals.
    • But, as stated above (Question [60], Article [1]), sign is the genus of sacrament.
    • Since, then, there are more signs than one, to wit, bread and wine, it seems to follow that here must be more sacraments than one.”
    
      Reply: Materially many but formally one due to the single end of spiritual refreshment  
    3. Reason #3: The Eucharist involves a double consecration.
    
      “Objection 3.
    • This sacrament is perfected in the consecration of the matter, as stated above (Article [1], ad 3).
    • But in this sacrament there is a double consecration of the matter.
    • Therefore, it is a twofold sacrament.”
    
      Reply: Materially Many but not formally   III.  ARTICLE 3: Whether the Eucharist is necessary for salvation?  
    1. Aquinas’s Answer: No
    
      “On the contrary, Augustine writes (Ad Bonifac. Contra Pelag. I): “Nor are you to suppose that children cannot possess life, who are deprived of the body and blood of Christ.”   I answer that, Two things have to be considered in this sacrament, namely, the sacrament itself [the sign alone], and what is contained in it [this is going to refer to the reality of the sacrament below—the primary effect of the sacrament. We might think of “reality of Sacrament” to be Christ’s body. But for Aquinas, that’s the reality and the sacrament together—res et sacramentum].   Now it was stated above (Article [1], Objection [2]) that the reality of the sacrament [the primary effect of the sacrament] is the unity of the mystical body, without which there can be no salvation; for there is no entering into salvation outside the Church, just as in the time of the deluge there was none outside the Ark, which denotes the Church, according to 1 Pt. 3:20,21.   And it has been said above (Question [68], Article [2]), that before receiving a sacrament, the reality of the sacrament can be had through the very desire of receiving the sacrament.  ...]]>6494038f-ef10-405e-8fd0-83e5209a7590Mon, 18 Sep 2023 09:00:00 -040001:10:22falsefullZeal for Souls

    • Double motives
    • Active and Contemplative acts
    • Labors accompanied with zeal

    • Continually and humbly call upon the Lord Jesus Christ for help.
    • Always have the thought of death in one’s mind

  Living Beyond Sunday: Making Your Home a Holy Place

  Our new book is available for pre-order from Ascension Press! “I love this book. It provides wise counsel with beautiful simplicity. So, if you are looking to safeguard your family life from the wiles of the enemy and encourage your spouse and children to become the saints God is calling them to be, this is a book for you.” – Fr Gregory Pine Home life can be difficult and busy, and it’s easy to get distracted from the point of it all: raising a family of saints. In Living Beyond Sunday: Making Your Home a Holy Place, two married couples share what has helped them make their homes a place of encounter with God–a place where saints are being made.
