Episode 261: Why Most Men Never Grow Up (A Priest Explains)

Men today struggle in two extremes. They believe that their worth is tied to what they accomplish and not who they are, or they are unchallenged and remain immature boys with no direction.

As the former director of vocations for the Dioceses of Dallas and the current pastor of a parish that brings in 9,000 people every Sunday, he has helped hundreds of men with their struggles. Today we discuss how we got here, how prayer and the Gospel are the solution, and 2 things men can do today to fix this.
