    The Difference Matters: Overcoming Depression and Desolation

    Depression is on the rise, and the mental health crisis affects everyone. When addressing our lives as body, mind, and soul—always at war with the forces of evil—the concept of spiritual desolation inevitably arises. Spiritual desolation is something the Church has addressed and discussed for centuries. While depression and spiritual desolation are very different, they are often confused, with desolation mistakenly attributed to depression. Today, John Heinen, Devin Schadt, and Sam Guzman (a mental health counselor) discuss the differences between the two and how to overcome each. In our full extended edition, we also answer a listener's question about tactics to get her husband to see a spiritual director.

    The Wicked Truth of Halloween

    There has been a growing obsession with Halloween and horror in recent years. Halloween is now America's 2nd largest commercial holiday, and its fascination does not appear to be in decline. When you consider the argument of this festival's pagan roots, Catholics are often left confused. Today John Heinen, Sam Guzman, and Devin Schadt discuss the Catholic origins of Halloween as well as Hallowstide, and explain what we, as men, can do with our families and neighbors to take back Halloween. Inside of CG+, we also get to answer a question from a listener who is in his mid-30s, unmarried, and wondering what to do to improve his seemingly hopeless life circumstances.

    5 Reasons Men Should NOT Get Married

    John Heinen, Devin Schadt, and Sam Guzman explore the nature of marriage in our fast-paced hook-up culture and examine why some men (and women) argue that men should avoid marriage. With declining marriage rates and persistently high divorce rates, it's clear that marriage is challenging, leading millions to opt out entirely. We discuss 5 reasons why marriage is difficult for men and why some argue we should abandon this supposedly outdated social construct. But is there truth to these statements? The discussion reveals how these five reasons fall short in helping men live their best lives and uncovers the enduring value of marriage. We also get to answer a question from a listener about how to pray and improve his life after a devastating divorce. ✅ Send us questions that we can answer on the show to podcast@catholicgentleman.com.

Every person of goodwill should be aware of these torments to inspire a deeper commitment to holiness and truth.
