Get your copy of the “First Line of Defense” here: https://ignatius.com/first-line-of-defense-fldfp/?searchid=0&search_query=first+line+of+defense Many are aware of today’s “crisis of masculinity,” and so we are grateful to be joined by Doug Barry and Daniel O’Connor to discuss how men can become spiritually and physically prepared for the big and small battles ahead. After assessing the current state of masculinity in our culture, they offer words of encouragement and wisdom on how to become a better and more Godly man. They encourage men to take responsibility and to take action both in their personal life and as leaders in their family. This requires preparedness, training, and spiritual as well as physical exercise. This uplifting discussion is a great source of encouragement for men who want to grow stronger and closer to God.   SUBSCRIBE to our channel and never miss an episode of the Ignatius Press Podcast.

  3. Finding True Love with YOUCAT Love Forever

    Finding True Love with YOUCAT Love Forever

    YOUCAT Love is a must have for every person 18 years and older because it actually answers your moral and practical questions about not just sex and marriage, but also friendship, dating, and engagement.   Get your copy here: https://ignatius.com/youcat-love-forever-yclfp/?searchid=0&search_query=youcat+love   Today, Ben Eriksen is joined by Thomas Jacobi, editor at Ignatius Press, and Alexander von Lengerke, YOUCAT illustrator, to talk about the new “YOUCAT Love Forever book.” The three of them discuss the importance of this work not only for college students, but also for young adults, engaged couples, and even those that are already married. This book explains the Church’s teaching on gender and sexual morality. But it isn’t a list of don’ts; instead, it articulates the beauty of God’s understanding of love and what beautiful possibilities there are for those that avail themselves of His love and plan for their lives. Yet this book isn’t just a moral guide and explainer; it seeks to give people concrete practical answers to specific and detailed questions about dating, engagement, friendship, and marital struggles. We truly believe this book can revolutionize how Catholics understand love, and we hope it finds its way into the hands of every person.   Visit Alexander’s website: https://www.alexanderlengerke.de/   SUBSCRIBE to our channel and never miss an episode of the Ignatius Press Podcast.
