We live in a world where anything goes, but nothing is forgiven. (We even have a new word for it: “cancel culture.”)

Amazingly, a lot of Christians (even Catholics) believe there are people out there who shouldn’t be forgiven.

So in this episode, we reflect on:
What real forgiveness is, and w...

We all know the Bible says to “love your neighbor as yourself.”

But here’s the funny thing: We’re usually better at loving our neighbor than loving ourselves!

Sure, we all get a little down on ourselves sometimes. But God doesn’t want you to constantly focus on what’s wrong with yourself. He wa...

Vulnerability.

Sounds like weakness, doesn’t it? Because you’re opening up the wounded parts of yourself to people.

But God can create such incredible good out of your brokenness. He even says in the Bible, “My power is made PERFECT in your weakness.”

So this week we’re talking to John Edwar...

Hey guys,

This week we have a really awesome guest: John Edwards! He’s one of the most interesting people I’ve ever met, and his story is nothing short of incredible.

You may know him because of his podcast “Just a Guy in the Pew.” He’s so humble and faithful, you’d never think he went to pris...

When we first met Heidi Ganahl, she was inspiring us to keep moving in the face of tragic loss. The entrepreneur and motivational speaker now turns her attention to politics. That’s right, Heidi is running for governor of Colorado. The campaign trail has been an interesting road for Heidi. She sh...

Fear. Everyone feels it.

Even my buddy Dom Raso, a Navy SEAL.

But here’s the thing about fear. If you try really hard to NOT feel afraid, you’ll get even more anxious. As Dom will tell you, what you gotta do is redirect your fear with a mindset of faith, rooted in God and His truth.

This week,...

We’re in a “father crisis” right now.

More kids than ever are raised without dads. And even when both parents are around, it’s Mom who takes the kids to church, not Dad. We can’t save our culture without good fathers.

Fr. Dave Pivonka knows just how high the stakes are. From years of working w...

Ever feel like you need better habits in your life?

My friend Dom Raso is here to talk about how the Navy SEALs can teach us all about discipline – and how you can apply those lessons directly to your own Catholic life. Dom learned a lot from his time in the battlefield, and he’s going to share ...

People can be super-annoying. Even some of the saints weren’t always the most pleasant companions!

Fact is, we are all broken creatures. But God still calls us to live in communion with each other.

Friendship is one of the most profound unions we can have. And it’s necessary to live a full, joy...

There’s a pretty big hole in Catholic ministry right now. If you’re a youth or adult from divorced parents or a separated family, there’s not much pastoral care focused on your needs.

And since divorce rates have skyrocketed over the years, this means a huge cross-section of our Church isn’t get...

As he sat in prison and anticipated a cruel and untimely death, St. Paul refused to give into negativity. He implored others to “have no anxiety at all, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, make your requests known to God.”

How could St. Paul stay positive in such a dire...

We’re in a spiritual battle against the Evil One. And you don’t have to be an exorcist to fight.

Speaking of exorcists, Fr. Chad Ripperger is back this week to dive into the spiritual battles we all fight every day.

Specifically, you’ll learn about the five levels of spiritual combat. Think of ...

Scripture says, “Be sober and alert. Your opponent the devil is prowling like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour. Resist him, solid in your faith.”

In other words, the Christian life involves spiritual combat. But a lot of Catholics aren’t really familiar with this idea.

So to start u...

One thing I love about this show is that you can text in your questions live.

But, usually, we have a guest to chat with, and while that’s fun and all, I have to try my best to get to all your questions.

So this week there’s no guest because it’s all about you!

That’s right, this week’s episod...

This week my beautiful wife Natalie is with us again. The last time she was on, there was so much to unpack with her story of healing from abuse. So she said yes to coming back to talk about it some more.

Healing is a journey. God’s love and mercy work in our lives over time, especially when it ...

I talk about joy a lot. But I know there’s one place where it’s really hard to keep up your joy sometimes: at work.
If you feel like you have to find your true joy outside of work, you’re not alone. People go to work every day, but their jobs stress them out and leave them exhausted.
So this week...

Happy Fourth of July!

It’s a good time to give thanks for the freedoms we enjoy in the United States.

So this week, I thought we'd revisit the chat I had with my friend and astronaut General Kevin Chilton. We talked about:

- The effect of family on your life.
- Finding your path with the help ...

Meet my buddy Fr. Peter. He’s been working in college campus ministry for 16 years! So if you work with young adults or know one who’s struggling with their faith, you don’t want to miss his nuggets of wisdom about
the deeper questions that young people want answered,
how the culture’s idea of ha...

Fr. Peter Mussett is BACK!

And this week, we’re talking about weed. That’s right. Weed.

Legal marijuana’s the new norm around the country, and the number of people using it has skyrocketed.

People argue that it’s healthier than alcohol. They even say you can get the same spiritual fulfillment ...

Last week I had a great conversation with my old friend Andrew Whaley about his project Calix and creating spaces for the sake of relationships with the deeply unchurched and post-Church. His vision sparked some serious conversation and questions about how this project works when it hits closer t...

Who doesn’t like coffee? Or should I say, who doesn’t NEED coffee? (Seriously, just the smell of it gets me hyped.)

But you know what else we all need? Community.

And Jesus.

So my friend Andrew Whaley found a genius way to bring all three together.

He literally designs places for people to ha...

Monsters in the closet. Ghosts in the dark.
Remember feeling afraid when you were little? Unfortunately, we don’t grow out of it. Now that we’re adults, we just have new things to be afraid of.

But how does that square with having faith in Jesus? After all, Jesus says, “Be not afraid!”
Shouldn’t...

Can Catholicism solve our political issues?

Society is pretty messy right now. But it’s hard to find solutions that really line up with Catholic teaching.

Yet there’s a unique Catholic way to uphold human dignity, promote small business, and encourage people to work together for the common good...

Feeling anxious? A little burned-out? Maybe you need to rest.
When you don’t take time for rest, your life can control you and sap your joy. On the flip side, people who take time for rest are happy. They’re at peace. Plus they end up doing more of the things they actually enjoy!
God commanded us...
