The Catholic Gentleman

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.

Today we sit down with JJ Sanford, a father of nine and the president of the University of Dallas, to talk about the excuse Catholic men keep reaching for. We discuss why magnanimity and humility are sister virtues rather than opposites, why St. Joseph was not spending his Saturdays on the couch while Our Lady did the work, what it means to live your whole day as a prayer instead of fencing your faith into a morning offering and a Sunday Mass, and why outsourcing your thinking to a machine leaves you unable to answer the one question that actually matters: what is God calling you to do with what He gave you.

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 Leonard 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.
