Gentlemen, Holy Saturday is upon us. A solemn pause before the joy of Easter. In Day 40 of our Lenten journey with St. Joseph, we confront the weight of Christ's sacrifice in sacred silence. I challenge you to join me for 12 minutes of reflection, honoring the 12 tribes and disciples, to ponder what Jesus did for you on the cross. He died for your sins—feel that truth today. No Mass, just waiting, fasting, and prayer as we anticipate His resurrection. I also share why silence is vital in our noisy world, drawing from Cardinal Sarah's The Power of Silence. This episode is your chance to go deep, to be still, and to prepare your heart for tomorrow. Hit play, embrace the silence, and let's finish Lent strong. Be a saint.SEO Keywords: Holy Saturday reflection, Catholic men podcast, St. Joseph Lent, sacred silence, Jesus sacrifice, Lenten series, Cardinal Sarah silence, Christian men spirituality, Easter vigil preparation, Catholic fasting.Products/References Mentioned: The Power of Silence Against the Dictatorship of Noise by Cardinal Robert Sarah Immaculate Heart of Mary, Grand Rapids (perpetual adoration) Powerful Quotes from the Transcript: “He died because of my sins.

When you picture the coolest guy in a Western flick, what do you see? Probably the one who appears calm, collected, and speaking only when it counts. St. Joseph would be the epitome of that man. Today, Jeff comes out of the shadows from behind the camera to unpack how Joseph's silence shaped Jesus, proving actions outshine words every time. No recorded lines in the Gospels, yet his presence screams patience, humility, and control. These are virtues we need as husbands and fathers. My challenge to you: carve out silence today. Block the noise and give God 15 minutes to speak. Hit play to hear how St. Joseph's quiet example can transform your life, then step up and live it.Products/References MentionedBook: Consecration to St. Joseph by Fr.

Jimmy Mitchell works with young people every day in his job as director of campus ministry at a high school in Florida. He sees their struggles to form relationships with others, to manage the growing presence of technology in their lives, to deepen their spiritual lives. He also sees their desire for the true, the good, and the beautiful, and their yearning for connection, meaning, and happiness. Mitchell's new book, “Let Beauty Speak: The Art of Being Human in a Culture of Noise,” is informed by his experiences working with young people, but its blueprint for a way of life has wider appeal. The principles he outlines in the book—including wonder, freedom, friendship, joy, culture, and more—empower Christians to evangelize by bringing beauty to the forefront of their lives. In this episode, Andrew Petiprin speaks with Jimmy Mitchell about the beauty of a life well-lived, and how such a life can work as a powerful tool for evangelization.

“I now see that I spent most of my life in doing neither what I ought nor what I liked”. C.S. Lewis, The Screwtape Letters Risking Enchantment is back for 2022, and in our first episode back Rachel is joined by Phoebe, to discuss our resolutions for how we hope to spend our time in the coming year. Using the above quote as inspiration, we discuss how to balance productivity with leisure, how schedules enable us to achieve our goals but can also lead us into the tyranny of efficiency, and how leisure is part of God's plan for us but in our modern age true leisure is hard to achieve. We look to literary references to help us understand how best to spend our time, whether it's the story of nuns and the tolling bell of their schedule in Rumer Godden's book In This House of Brede, or Fran Lebowitz's life of idleness as listed her humorous book Metropolitan Life.

THE SLAYER OF DEMONS!...okay, that may not be a title given to St. Joseph, but it was a slip of the tongue by James and just maybe it will be added to his litany one day.For those of you who do not know, this is the year of St. Joseph as declared by Pope Francis! This day and age is especially trying for families and most glaringly men. Turn to St. Joseph, the patron saint of our beautiful Church. St. Joseph is a man who was chosen by God to lead the Holy Family. He loved his wife and son more than anyone and his actions literally spoke volumes. There is now Josephology happening in our age! Some fun facts for you men about this incredible man:He is the patron saint of our beloved Catholic Church, unborn children, fathers, workers, travelers, immigrants, and a happy death.Feast Day: March 19thSt. Joseph the Worker: May 1st, to counter the Communists' May Day by Pope Pius XII Month of March is dedicated to St. JosephWednesday (yes, every Wednesday!) is dedicated to him as well. For a man who wasn't venerated deeply in the Church until the 15th century, we are certainly trying to catch up! In this episode, James and Fr. Dom will dive into all things St. Joseph, this incredible man who was truly a man of silence. The Gospels don't record a single word of this man's life but his actions have been written about for centuries. A man who gets spoken to four times by angels is a man we all must emulate and listen to. Since he didn't say a word, we must follow his actions. Join us to find out why St. Joseph was depicted as an old man in early Catholic art, why James thinks St. Joseph should have a title added to his litany, how much St. Joseph loved our beloved mother, why St. Joseph was probably a young, strapping man and what the Gospels say in regards to this fact, and how we can take St. Joseph's faith and pray to him for it! Father Dom's Challenge: Think before you act and speak. Ask the Holy Spirit to enter in the simple moments of your life (or even the chaotic times) to direct your words and actions to fulfill His will. Men, the Holy Spirit will never steer you in the wrong direction.St. Joseph, pray for us!Be sure to follow us on Facebook and support us on Patreon.Most importantly, say a Rosary for this podcast and spread the word to other men!

Has your physical, emotional and mental well being fallen by the wayside during all this change and uncertainty? As a people leader, you need to be your best self so you can lead others. Paying extra attention to your own well being is always a good idea. In this episode, we share our top seven strategies from our Leadership Essentials program that help you do just that. Episode highlights: An introduction to our Leadership Essentials Program. Six modules, with a new one released every two weeks, and group coaching taking place every second week. Our physicality is about our capacity to expand and recover energy and is defined by the amount of energy we have. The importance of sleep and why it should be a priority Between the hours of 10:00 PM and 2:00 AM, the brain and body is at its peak rejuvenation cycle. Set up your environment for a good night's sleep - make sure your room is around 17-18 degrees. Staying hydrated is one of the most important things you can do to keep your energy levels up. Jan's secret ‘prime tea' to help her stay hydrated and curb cravings for caffeine - a mixture of boiling water and CCF seeds (cumin, coriander and fennel). The ideal number of cups of water per day for women is 11. Nitric oxide - a secret weapon when we breathe. Why we all need to learn to breathe through our noses more, especially when we're sleeping. The importance of breathing exercises that we share in our Leadership Essentials Program. Mental health is all about how you focus your energy. The Power of Full Engagement by Jim Loehr and Toy Schwartz: They say that nothing so interferes with performance and engagement as the inability to concentrate on the task at hand. And in order to perform at our best, we must be able to sustain concentration and then move flexibly between broad and narrow, as well as internal and external focus. Practice self-reflection to improve your energy focus - look inwards to learn more about yourself and what you need. Is the way you talk to yourself disempowering you? The words we use create our environment and experiences. Did you know we all have around 60 to 80,000 thoughts a day and most of them are negative? The three ways to become more aware of yourself through self-talk and how to improve your thoughts. Why we all need to practice being silent to give our brain a rest from the noise. Purposeful silence is a real opportunity for you to top up your mental energy. The Power of Silence: Against the Dictatorship of Noise by Robert Cardinal Sarah, says: “Without the capacity for silence, man is incapable of hearing, loving, and understanding the people around him.” Look after your emotional wellbeing by looking after the quality of your energy. Self-care isn't about being selfish. It looks different to different people, but unless you can fill your cup up first, you won't have a lot to give to others. Is there something you can do to take care of your emotions today? Can you learn to say yes to yourself and your needs? Inject some fun and creativity into your days - cook from scratch, tell a joke to your family at the dinner table, or use your skills to garden or paint. Join us for our Leadership Essentials Program, where we share these seven key strategies and more to improve your physical, emotional and mental well being as a people leader.

Join Trevor on this solo journey through silence. "All the unhappiness of men arises from one single fact, that they cannot stay quietly in their own chamber." - Blaise Pascal "Agitation becomes a tranquilizer, a sedative, a morphine pump, a sort of reverie, an incoherent dream-world. But this noise is a dangerous, deceptive medicine, a diabolic lie that helps man avoid confronting himself in his interior emptiness. The awakening will necessarily be brutal." - Robert Cardinal Sarah "From morning to evening, from evening to morning, silence no longer has any place at all; the noise tries to prevent God himself from speaking. In this hell of noise, man disintegrates and is lost; he is broken up into countless worries, fantasies, and fears. In order to get out of these depressing tunnels, he desperately awaits noise so that it will bring him a few consolations. Noise is a deceptive, addictive, and false tranquilizer. The tragedy of our world is never better summed up than in the fury of senseless noise that stubbornly hates silence. This age detests the things that silence brings us to: encounter, wonder, and kneeling before God." - Robert Cardinal Sarah "To refuse silence filled with confident fear and adoration is to refuse God the freedom to take hold of us by his love and presence." - Robert Cardinal Sarah Resource - The Power of Silence: Against the Dictatorship of Noise by Robert Cardinal Sarah Song Credit: Star Visions Of A Champ (KieLoKaz ID 103) by KieLoBot Website: https://wedaretosay.com/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/wedaretosay/
