    Watchfulness

    Watchfulness

    What is watchfulness? Who is St. Hesychius? And what are the four types of watchfulness?
    We discuss the four types of watchfulness, which are:

    Closely scrutinize every mental image or provocation.
    Free the heart from all thoughts, keeping it profoundly silent and still in prayer.
    Continually and humbly call upon the Lord Jesus Christ for help.
    Always have the thought of death in one’s mind


    Check out Adam's article on The Alcuin Institute for Catholic Culture.

    Angry? Here are the daughters of wrath...

    Angry? Here are the daughters of wrath...

    This week we discuss the daughters of anger
    If you battle with anger, here are some things to think about:

    What sins stem from anger?
    Is there such a thing as good anger?
    Are we bitter towards those we love?
    Does anger open the door to lust?
    Does anger open the door to gluttony?
    And a deeper dive into the 6 daughters of anger

    Messy Family Podcast: David and Pamela Niles

    Messy Family Podcast: David and Pamela Niles

    David and Pamela Niles join Mike and Alicia Hernon on The Messy Family Project
    “Ultimately, only bountiful marriages can transform our domestic churches into sanctuaries for this liturgy of love; and it is this liturgy by which we sanctify our daily lives and the world” ~ Living Beyond Sunday

    We have been blessed to work with many great ministries serving marriage and family and The Catholic Man Show is one of them!  David Niles and Adam Minihan, along with their wives Pamela and Haylee have written a great book for Catholic families called Living Beyond Sunday; Making Your Home a Holy Place  and we were thrilled to talk to them about it on this podcast.  David and Pamela joined us for this interview in which we talk about the book, but also about how they started out as a family, why they wrote this book, and how it can help other families in their walk with Christ.  Just like our work at MFP, this book is full of truth, but also very practical and real. Listen in to be encouraged and inspired!

Steve the Lame Reviewer ,

Catholic Strength

Love this podcast because it promotes masculinity in an era where masculinity is under attack.

Real Catholic Men Honest and Comical

Best Catholic podcast I’ve come across.

Jonhadji ,

Excellent

I am a protestant who is debating the swim across the Tiber. This show presents Catholicism as a hard hitting, honest, and virtuous path to the good life. Very compelling.
