A man decides he is serious about his faith, and somewhere along the way that becomes the reason he stops trying. His work is sloppy, his day is unstructured, and his wife carries the house while he tells himself he is just not attached to worldly things. He is not being humble, he's using God as cover, and the men around him can see it even when he cannot.

Most men have only an idea of Mary, but not a relationship. Today we discuss how Marian devotion is the best way to grow closer to Christ. We explore how Mary is the perfect example of uniformity with God’s will, Love of God, and the great power of her intercession.

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. Father Edwin has seen it all. 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.

No marriage ends in a single moment. It's like going down a ladder, one rung at a time, and most men do not notice until they are near the bottom.  Today we sit down to name the 7 tactics the devil uses to pull a marriage apart, and the 5 steps you can take today to prevent the devil from winning. We discuss how the disorder in marriage does not come from the nature of man and woman, but from sin, and how resentment is one of the hardest things to overcome.

Work will take everything you give it. Give it enough and it will be the black hole that swallows your prayer, peace, and your marriage.   Today we discuss Ora et Labora, the ancient rhythm of prayer and work that St. Benedict modeled his life after. We explain why work can feel like a curse, the difference between your occupation and your vocation, why good men get addicted to the office, and what St. Gregory the Great named as the hardest labor of all.

The Culture of Death is not random. There’s an intelligence behind it and your home is the first target. We dive deep with philosophy professor, Dr. John Cuddeback, into why you are so busy it hurts, and why you try so hard to “keep work at work” without realizing this could be hurting your family. Being pulled in different directions and looking for one simple solution is not the answer. The devil slowly seeps into the ordinary life of a family’s home, and we show how to prevent it.

We don't say it out loud, but we hand our identity to the things we own. The house, the car, the title in the email signature, the number in the account. We see a man who is thirty seven and retired and decide he must have life figured out, and we measure ourselves against a pile we know nothing about. Underneath a lot of it is fear, the fear of losing what we have and the fear of who we would be without it. Devin and I sat down to talk about money, and we ended up talking about that fear, and about a truth we work hard to dodge: none of it belongs to us. Our bodies, our homes, every part of our lives, all of it on loan.
