1. HEART OF THE MATTER 1A. Record-Breaking Missionary Numbers — Pres. Oaks at New Mission Leader Seminar At the 2026 Seminar for New Mission Leaders (June 18–21, Provo MTC), President Dallin H. Oaks announced that the Church will soon have the largest number of full-time missionaries in its history, surpassing the current 87,000+ serving worldwide. The surge is driven by the first wave of 18-year-old sister missionaries (following the November policy change lowering the minimum age from 19) and the addition of 55 new missions in July, bringing the global total to 506. President Oaks outlined three characteristics defining the restored Church: (1) the fulness of doctrine (including eternal marriage between a man and a woman); (2) priesthood authority and keys; and (3) a unique testimony of Christ grounded in modern revelation and the First Vision. Sister Kristin Oaks also spoke, sharing six core truths missionaries teach.

New Hymn ‘Welcome Home’ — The Story Behind It Composer Andrea Brett explains how a 2017 encounter with Demetrius O’Neal — a recent convert serving as a greeter at a Spokane ward on a snowy Sunday morning — inspired her hymn ‘Welcome Home,’ now published in the new Hymns for Home and Church. Brett submitted 10 pieces when the global hymnbook was announced in 2018; this was the only one she’d written before the call. She received confirmation of its selection in February 2025, then had a full-circle moment when she and O’Neal sat near each other at the April 2025 General Conference as the Tabernacle Choir performed it. O’Neal’s name appears in the hymn’s tune name as a tribute. The hymn is now translated and sung globally. Source: Church Newsroom / Richie’s document 1C. Family History Records Are a ‘Sacred Thread’ — Elder Bragg at International Archivists Congress Elder Mark A. Bragg, General Authority Seventy and executive director of the Church’s Family History Department and FamilySearch International, was a keynote speaker at the III Congress of Archivists: Digital Archive Expo (DA-EXPO), held June 8–12 in Astana, Kazakhstan. He called family history records ‘the thin but sacred thread’ tying people together across generations, and argued that records are ‘in a very real sense, witnesses.’ Elder Bragg framed the digital revolution in genealogy in moral terms: for most of history, access to records was shaped by ‘proximity, resources and specialized knowledge,’ but today a record created in one place can be preserved in another, indexed in a third, and discovered by someone on the other side of the world. ‘The reach is astonishing. The speed is breathtaking. The possibilities are almost beyond measure.’ He also said that ‘access is an act of kindness’ — records only fulfill their divine purpose when they are found, understood, and used. His core message: preserving memory is an act of hope. ‘It says that the past is not dead to us and that the future deserves more than fragments.’ Source: Church News, June 17, 2026 Angle: Great ‘quiet but meaningful’ story — LDS family history going global and leveling the playing field for genealogy worldwide. 1D. America Gives — All 50 States Receive Food Donations The Church completed a milestone in its ‘America Gives’ initiative by delivering a shipping container of food to Hilo, Hawaii — marking all 50 states reached. The initiative aims to deliver 250 truckloads of food nationwide in 2026 to celebrate the U.S. 250th anniversary. In Hawaii, the food went to The Food Basket, distributed to 10 local nonprofits. Notably, 42% of residents on the island of Hawaii face food insecurity — the state’s highest rate. Rosie Rios, chair of America 250 and former U.S. Treasurer, praised the milestone. Local Methodist pastor Ted Lesnett said recipients will know ‘when they were hungry, someone cared.’ Source: Church Newsroom / Richie’s document 1E. Church Donates $250,000 NZD to Christchurch Anglican Cathedral Rebuild The Church announced a NZ$250,000 donation (June 19, 2026) toward the restoration of Christchurch’s iconic Anglican Cathedral — damaged in the February 2011 earthquake. Elder Peter F. Meurs (Pacific Area President) and Anglican Bishop Peter Carrell presided at the announcement. The donation comes as the project faces a $45M funding shortfall and an overall $219M budget. The Christchurch City Council has offered $15M contingent on government and Anglican Church matches. Notably, a New Zealand Buddhist community made a similar gift in 2023 — the LDS donation continues a cross-faith pattern of support for the heritage project. Source: Richie’s document Angle: Rare and heartwarming — LDS funds an Anglican cathedral. Good interfaith story. 1F. Central America Humanitarian Blitz — 5 Projects, 500,000+ People In late May and early June 2026, the Church announced five humanitarian projects across Central America (with Sister J. Anette Dennis, First Counselor in the Relief Society General Presidency, representing the Church). Projects include: the ‘Windows of Light’ eyecare program in El Salvador (350,000+ screenings to date); safe water access for 250,000+ in Belize, Guatemala, Honduras, and Nicaragua (with UNICEF); nearly 750 computers/tablets donated to 66 educational institutions in Guatemala; and medical equipment for the ‘La Mascota’ children’s hospital in Nicaragua. Source: Church Newsroom, June 2026 2. FAITH & DOCTRINE 2A. President Christofferson in Philadelphia & Toronto A busy week of ministry for President D. Todd Christofferson: He offered the invocation at Becket’s Canterbury Medal Gala in Philadelphia (multifaith event celebrating religious liberty), alongside Elder Gary E. Stevenson and others. The group also visited the Liberty Bell and Independence Hall — fitting, ahead of America’s 250th. Christofferson reflected on D&C 101 and the Constitution’s purpose to protect ‘all flesh.’ From Philadelphia, he and Sister Christofferson traveled to Toronto, meeting 250+ missionaries in the Canada Toronto Mission weeks before it divides into three missions (Toronto West, Toronto East, and Montreal). He also spoke to hundreds of LDS youth, with one — Amelia Fischer — saying ‘no amount of words can describe how I felt tonight.’ Source: Richie’s document / Church Newsroom 2B. BYU Scholar Study: Religion Adds 7.6 Years to Life The BYU Wheatley Institute is releasing three reports analyzing 3,000 of the most scientifically rigorous studies (culled from 60,000+ papers by Duke University) on religion and health. Key findings: 33/34 studies show improved social health; 10/11 show improved mental health; 7/8 show improved physical health. Regular worshippers live an average of 7.6 years longer (up to 13.7 years longer for African Americans). A ‘landmark finding’: 256 studies show religion prevents/aids recovery from substance abuse (vs. 6 showing negative impact). Author Loren Marks recommends public health frameworks treat religious involvement like exercise recommendations. Source: Richie’s document 2C. Elder Soares Testifies in the Philippines Elder Ulisses Soares completed a two-week ministry in the Philippines (mid-May 2026), meeting with 600+ young single adults in Cebu, 450+ in Quezon City, and 340+ missionaries at the Philippines MTC. His recurring message: ‘His arms are extended to all of us.’ The Philippines has more than 905,000 Latter-day Saints — the Church’s fourth-largest national membership. Two new temples were also dedicated in the Philippines this month: the Davao Philippines Temple (Elder Renlund, May 3) and the Bacolod Philippines Temple (Elder Andersen, May 31). Source: Church Newsroom, June 17, 2026 3. CULTURE & CURIOSITIES 3A. LDS Author in Everyman’s Library — A First BYU biology and bioethics professor Steven L. Peck has reportedly become the first Latter-day Saint author included in the prestigious Everyman’s Library series (publishing canonical English fiction since 1906). His 2012 novella A Short Stay in Hell — a philosophical horror story about a Mormon man condemned to an afterlife library containing every possible book — went viral on BookTok and found a new audience. A literature historian noted: ‘No Mormon or Mormon-adjacent writer that I know of has ever been featured in this prestigious series.’ The Salt Lake Tribune covered the story, noting the irony that a theological horror story marks one of the most significant moments in LDS literary history. Source: Salt Lake Tribune / Richie’s document 3B. The Sasine Family — 40 Countries Before Age 1 Keith and Chelsea Sasine, an LDS couple stationed in Germany (Keith is an Army oral surgeon), made history in November 2025 by taking their youngest daughter Mia to 40 countries before her first birthday (March–November 2025), using a Honda Odyssey for European road trips. The family of six (including Izzy, 10; Abby, 9; and John, 4) attends local wards wherever they travel — a faith anchor the couple says strengthened their testimony and taught their kids the importance of the Sabbath globally. They’re planning a move to Colorado Springs in 2026. Source: Richie’s document 3C. Jen Affleck (Secret Lives of Mormon Wives) Expecting Baby #4 Jen Affleck, 27-year-old star of The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives and Dancing with the Stars alum, announced June 18 that she and husband Zac Affleck are expecting their fourth child. She shared the news on Instagram captioned ‘Chapter Four.

Young men are often told to tough it out, but a new report from GreenShield and Mental Health Research Canada suggests many may be struggling in silence, raising questions about why so many are reluctant to seek help when they need it most. Khush Amaria, director of clinical services at GreenShield, joins Jeyan to unpack the findings. Then, as loneliness becomes a growing concern, some people are turning to AI chatbots for companionship. Can a machine provide meaningful connection, or does it risk deepening the problem? University of Toronto psychology professor Paul Bloom weighs in.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this conversation, he names what's really going on: a generation that woke up inside a world already infected with “narcissistic spiritual cancer,” and a culture that gave them consumer identity instead of a soul.They go deep on:* What “boomerism” actually means — and whether the criticism is fair* Why resentment and resignation will hold young men back no matter how justified they feel* The difference between ethnos and race, and why it matters for how we form community* Why politics can't answer the questions that only the purification of the heart can* The “black-pilled” trap — and how to actually fight evil (hint: it's not screaming at the machine)* What it looks like to pull someone back from the cliff — Fr.

The first entry into a small series with young men in mind but not excluding anyone who wants to live godly!

Younger men have always been a challenge to reach, but today's realities make it even more urgent. Economic pressures, mental health struggles, shifting family dynamics, and identity questions are leaving many men in their 20s and 30s searching for meaning. The good news? They are spiritually curious, hungry for truth, and increasingly turning to the church for hope. Is your church ready for that golden moment—when a young man walks through the doors seeking answers? How can you meet his need for identity, purpose, and authentic community in a way that leads him to Christ? In this session, we'll share the latest research on the struggles and spiritual openness of young men today. Attendees will receive the State of Young Men in America report and gain practical insights on how to activate the people and resources already in their church to engage and disciple the next generation effectively.

Gareth Southgate's documentary on young men stopped me in my tracks. Because what he was describing — boys growing up without direction, without a male role model, without anyone to show them what their emotions mean — is exactly what I see every day in the men I work with. In this episode, I talk about why the role of the father has never been more important, what happens when young men are left to find their own way, and why the work we do on ourselves directly shapes the men our sons become. Inside this episode: •Why growing up without a father figure creates a vacuum that toxic masculinity fills •What I noticed about my son's friends who have no male role model at home •Why I shared my therapy journey openly with my own kids — and how it changed our relationship •The 15 minutes I spent teaching four young lads how to deadlift — and why it matters more than you think •Why the school system is failing boys who are not academic •How positive masculinity from men like us can counter the Andrew Tates of the world •Why if we want to solve the male suicide crisis, we have to start with the boys •The simple truth: to show up for your kids, you have to show up for yourself first If there is one episode I would ask you to share, it is this one.

Why do so many people today feel lost, disconnected, and without purpose? In this episode of the WS Podcast, Wojciech sits down with Joe Barnard, minister at Holyrood Evangelical Church and author of "The Road Back to God", for a deep conversation about faith, meaning, masculinity, family, and the spiritual crisis of the modern world. Together, they explore why modern society often feels spiritually empty despite unprecedented technological progress and material comfort. This episode dives into: the growing loss of meaning and direction in modern culture the difference between knowledge and wisdom why many young men feel lost today the impact of consumerism, dating apps, and technology on relationships and identity the importance of family, marriage, and fatherhood the role of faith, transcendence, and spiritual longing in human life Joe explains how modern culture has become increasingly “disenchanted,” reducing reality to material explanations while neglecting deeper human needs for purpose, connection, and transcendence. The conversation also explores: the concept of sin as self-destruction and missing the aim why ancient wisdom traditions still matter the importance of hope and long-term thinking how spiritual practices and meaningful relationships can restore direction and fulfillment Drawing from philosophy, Christianity, psychology, and personal experience, this episode challenges listeners to rethink what truly matters - and whether modern society has lost touch with deeper truths about human nature.

Hour 4 of Jake & Ben on June 11, 2026 The New York Knicks are an exciting team full of great storylines.  How much would a Giannis Antetokounmpo trade change the NBA? Is everyone waiting for it to happen?  Jokes aside, gambling really has become a problem for our young men. 

The entire conflict between Israel & the Philistines was to be determined by a single contest involving two men.  Israel's freedom was at and placed on the shoulders of a young man.  Probably some application there for our Young Men who are preparing for a mission. If you'd like to view the video that goes with the podcast, click here!

Find us at www.crisisinvesting.com Find Tom at www.tomwoods.com In a wide-ranging discussion, Tom Woods joins Doug Casey and the host to assess current U.S. politics, culture, and economics. Woods reflects on Trump's 2024 win, the apparent retreat and performative nature of "wokery," and a broader sense that public life is "oddly fake," arguing that Trump squandered political capital and abandoned promising ideas like DOGE while ballooning spending, pursuing misguided trade and housing approaches, and attacking right-wing dissenters. They discuss generational divides in information and voting behavior, pessimism about fixing deficits and entitlements, and the likelihood that "reality" will force a fiscal reckoning through unmanageable interest costs or money printing. The conversation also touches on U.S.-Israel influence politics, concerns about deeper military integration, social media's role in mass conformity, the possibility of U.S. fragmentation, and Woods's commitment to keep speaking out and promoting his newsletter and history courses. 00:00 Welcome Tom Woods 00:33 Old Friends on PBS 01:10 Culture Wokery and Faith 04:15 Trump Momentum and Plan B 05:42 Economic Agenda Letdown 06:53 Housing Prices and Mortgages 09:48 Loyalty Tests and Vance 13:47 Israel NDAA and Intelligence 18:19 Censorship and Empire Decline 19:30 Pride Ads and Mass Psychosis 23:01 Social Media Amplifier 25:13 Will America Break Up 30:01 Keep Fighting Anyway 31:43 No Matter Who You Vote 33:03 Owning the McCain Line 34:04 Twitter Algorithms and Links 34:35 Debt Nobody Wants to Fix 39:49 Progress and Modern Comforts 43:00 Phones Amplify Human Nature 44:43 Boomers vs Gen Z Divide 48:19 Self Reliance for Young Men 51:23 Doug Casey Boomer Memories 55:54 Risks Hope and Do What You Can 58:28 Tom Woods Courses and Farewell

Chase works in tech, but he also leads a group of young men who are looking for reasons for the Christian faith and what they should believe and why. Chase

What does it take to keep going when a doctor tells you your son has less than a 10% chance of survival? Vince Benevento is the founder of Causeway Collaborative – a counseling and mentorship organization that has helped over 2,500 young men between the ages of 14 and 30 – and the author of Boys Will Be Men: 8 Lessons for the Lost American Male. Last July, his 12-year-old son Leo was diagnosed with aplastic anemia — a rare, potentially fatal blood disease. What followed was 150 days in the hospital, emergency surgeries, experimental treatments, and two doctors telling Vince to prepare for the worst. Leo is now back in school and back on the lacrosse field. Against every odd. In this conversation, Vince opens up about what those 150 days actually looked like – the fear, the sleepless nights, the moments his marriage buckled under the weight of it. He talks about his own bipolar disorder diagnosis, his struggles with addiction and alcohol, and how the mess of his own life became the foundation of his life's work helping young men find their way. This is one of the most honest conversations we've had on this show. If you're a father, a son, or someone who has ever had to find a reason to keep going – this one is for you.

Send us Fan MailIn this episode of The FORGE Truth Podcast, Pete and Zach look at a new report from Man in the Mirror and the Institute of Men and Religion about the state of young men in America. While recent conversations have focused on the struggles facing men today, this episode explores a more hopeful possibility: that young men may be reaching a hinge point.Pete and Zach discuss why many men have felt disconnected from the church, why some churches have failed to speak to men in practical and meaningful ways, and why a renewed hunger for the sacred, for virtue, for brotherhood, and for spiritual formation may be emerging. The conversation also explores the limits of endless content, the influence of the manosphere, the need for gospel centered clarity, and why men need more than information. They need relationships, older mentors, spiritual direction, and a vision for manhood rooted in Christ.This episode is a call for churches and men to recognize the moment we are in and respond with courage, truth, and hope.You can download a copy of the 2026 report here: https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/1v2qq32du931g5tpja783/The-State-of-Young-Men-in-America-2026.pdf?rlkey=qp9e8vk1odmhhxkr3jf5pvpg7&dl=0

This Easter—2026—multiple Catholic parishes across the nation saw a surge in adult baptisms and new converts entering the church. Some dioceses reported all-time records for people becoming Catholic at Easter. This trend parallels a broader trend of renewed interest in religion, especially with young people. Protestant and nondenominational churches have also had an influx of younger converts. According to a study from Barna Group, which tracks data on faith in U.S. culture, younger adults—Gen Z and Millennials—have become the most regular churchgoers, outpacing older generations.  While some are calling this a religious revival, the reality is that attracting young people to church doesn't necessarily, automatically translate into offering them a reason to stay for the long term. If young people are showing up for church because they are looking for something—are they finding what it was they were looking for? On this episode of Glad You Asked, the hosts talked to three guests from different backgrounds and Christian affiliations about what young people want from the church. Catalina Morales Bahena is Director of Learning at Faith in Action; Drew Stever is a chaplain, spiritual director, and ordained pastor in the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America; and Baird Linke is an activist who currently serves as pastor of Our Savior's Lutheran Church in Bonner, Montana. They are some of the contributors to a new book, Hungry for Hope: Letters to the Church from Young Adults (Edited by Jeremy Paul Myers and Kristina Frugé, and published by Eerdmans).  Learn more about this topic in these links.   Hungry for Hope: Letters to the Church from Young Adults  New Barna Data: Young Adults Lead a Resurgence in Church Attendance Rise in Young Men's Religiosity Realigns Gender Gaps Religion Holds Steady in America "Young people are seeking connection.

The Church's Expanding Global Identity & $25M UNICEF Donation The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints has donated $25 million to UNICEF's Child Nutrition Fund (CNF), a global initiative aimed at preventing and treating childhood malnutrition. • Doubled Impact: Thanks to a matching challenge announced in 2025, the Church’s donation will generate an additional $25 million, bringing the total financial impact to $50 million. • Target & Scope: The contribution is part of an ongoing partnership with UNICEF that began in 2013. The funds will support nutritional programs for mothers and young children—specifically targeting areas like the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Kenya, Nigeria, the Philippines, and Sierra Leone—with the broader goal of helping the fund reach 320 million women and children annually by 2030. The First Presidency Tours the New Humanitarian Center Ahead of Dedication This facility is part of the Church's effort to follow the second great commandment: “Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.” On Friday, May 22, 2026, the First Presidency of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints toured the Church's new Humanitarian Center in Salt Lake City, ahead of its upcoming dedication. Purpose: Built to support the commandment to “love thy neighbour,” the center serves a dual purpose: providing job training, language courses, and employment counseling to help individuals overcome employment barriers, while also preparing and distributing global humanitarian supplies. Public Open House: Runs from June 1 through July 23, 2026 (Monday–Friday, 10 a.m. to 7 p.m.). Visitors can participate in hands-on service, such as assembling kits or sorting clothes. Attendance: Visitors are encouraged to schedule a time via the Temple Square app or by calling 801-240-5954, though walk-ins are welcome. Harvard Global Flourishing Study Compares Latter-day Saints Internationally The recently released Harvard Global Human Flourishing Study, which surveyed over 200,000 people across 22 countries, reveals that religious service attendance is globally linked to higher levels of overall well-being—and Latter-day Saints are no exception. When analyzing the U.S. data, the study found that Latter-day Saints scored highly on the overall “flourishing index” (which measures happiness, health, meaning, character, relationships, and financial stability), while those with no religious affiliation scored the lowest. • Highest Church Attendance: Latter-day Saints reported the highest rate of weekly religious service attendance at 65%, outperforming Evangelicals (59%) and Pentecostals (53%). • Mental Health and Happiness: The group demonstrated remarkably low levels of depression (8.5%) compared to atheists and agnostics (19%). Additionally, 30% of Latter-day Saints reported being “highly happy,” which is roughly double the rate of those distant from faith. • Family and Spiritual Support: Latter-day Saints reported the highest rates of feeling loved by their mother (94%) and father (90%) while growing up. Furthermore, 89% reported finding immense strength and comfort from their religion. • The Challenge of Community Criticism: On the flip side, 11% of Latter-day Saints reported feeling that their religious community was critical of them. While this number is statistically identical to other high-expectation faiths (like Baptists and Evangelicals), the article notes it highlights an ongoing need for the culture to shift from judgment to Christlike love, a priority recently emphasized by Church leadership. Diplomatic Relations: Elder Bednar Meets With the President of Chile Elder David A. Bednar, of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, held an official meeting with Chilean President José Antonio Kast at the La Moneda Presidential Palace on Monday, May 18, 2026. • Core Topics: The discussion centered on strengthening families, supporting youth, protecting religious freedom, and fostering cooperation between governments and faith communities. • Church Initiatives: Elder Bednar highlighted several Church programs designed to help the rising generation develop faith, purpose, and practical skills. These included the For the Strength of Youth program, various youth service and leadership experiences, and the BYU–Pathway Worldwide educational program. Women Leaders Discuss Discipleship and Service at Annual Luncheon On Monday, May 11, 2026, roughly 200 current and former women leaders of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints gathered for their annual emeritus luncheon at the Church Office Building in Salt Lake City. The meeting brought together past and present general presidencies and advisory councils from the Primary, Young Women, and Relief Society organizations to discuss discipleship, service, and organizational updates. • Young Women Age-Group Names: Leaders discussed the spiritual meaning behind the newly introduced Young Women age-group names. Former Young Women General President Elaine S. Dalton praised the change, noting that the titles—Builders of Faith (ages 12–13), Messengers of Hope (ages 14–15), and Gatherers of Light (ages 16–17)—give young women a strong identity rooted directly in Jesus Christ. • Enduring Sisterhood: Attendees, including 93-year-old Joy Sansom (who served on the Young Women general board from 1961 to 1972), celebrated the lifelong bonds, shared memories, and enduring sense of community fostered by their years of joint church service.  Bishops and Youth: One-on-One Ministering Supports Better Relationships During a recent Instagram Live broadcast, the Young Men General Presidency addressed the common question of whether ward-level Young Men presidencies—discontinued in 2020—will ever return. Led by General President Timothy L. Farnes and his counselors, Brother David J. Wunderli and Brother Sean R. Dixon, the presidency clarified that the change is permanent and explained the spiritual and structural reasons behind keeping the responsibility on local bishoprics.

We might like to think of our Western countries as progressive, and take pride in how our societies have evolved in recent decades to become more inclusive in many ways, including equality between men and women. The 2010s saw movements like #MeToo encourage women to make their voices heard. You could be forgiven for assuming that attitudes have shifted and that misogyny is thankfully on the decline. What's the evidence behind that conclusion then? How can these kinds of attitudes still be prevalent in 2026? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions!

Why has fragrance become one of the biggest identity markers for Gen Z men? And how did perfume culture move from department store counters into Discord servers, TikTok algorithms and million-view fragrance reviews? In this episode, I’m joined by Finn Batchelor, one of the world’s fastest-rising fragrance creators and the founder of FB Fragrances digital platform. With more than a million followers across platforms, Finn has become a trusted voice for a new generation of young men and boys discovering fragrance through emotion, self-expression, confidence and community. We unpack the psychology behind fragrance compliments, why young men are suddenly collecting perfume like fashion, the rise of niche and Middle Eastern fragrance houses, the truth about “beast mode” scents, and why scent can completely alter how you experience yourself. We also talk about nostalgia, mood, looks maxing and the cultural shifts driving fragrance’s explosive return. If fragrance is becoming the new identity language for a generation of men and boys, this conversation explains why.

Love to hear from you; “Send us a Text Message”If you've ever felt like you got dropped into the middle of a movie and missed the first half, you know the quiet anxiety that follows. We start with a deceptively simple question from Stephen Covey: are you building your life with the end in mind, or just reacting to whatever hits you next?We pull from Pope John Paul II's Theology of the Body and his “triptych” view of the human story: what love was meant to be, how the fall distorts desire, and where we're actually going. That bigger horizon changes how we talk about same-sex attraction, lust, marriage, and even the daily grind of work and family life. We also get very practical: the Claymore 10-minute morning ritual (before you touch your phone), why temptation isn't automatically sin, and how “praying with temptation” becomes the difference between repression and real healing.Visit Claymore Milites Christi to learn more about the Battle Plan for Young Men! Then we go deeper into the end goal: heaven. Jesus' words about the resurrection reshape what we think marriage is for, why love can't be reduced to sex, and how confession and mercy rebuild a distorted view of love into something true and joyful. If you're tired of grayscale spirituality and want a Catholic worldview that actually makes sense of your body, your desires, and your destiny, hit play.Subscribe for more, share this with a friend who needs hope, and leave a review so more people can find the conversation.Email Jack with questions and comments to answer and discuss on future episodes! jack@ClaymoreMilitesChristi.com.

Online sports betting and casino games in Canada generated $12.5 billion in revenue last year. But more than half that money ends up offshore, where there are no Canadian taxes, and little to no consumer protections. That's why the province of Ontario opened up its online gambling market to private operators four years ago, and why Alberta is following suit later this year. But for a small but growing number of people, all this gambling has led to financial hardship... or worse. A recent study suggests the rate of young men contacting Ontario's mental health helpline for gambling-related problems has increased by more than 300 per cent. In this documentary, John Chipman explores the true cost of the rise in online gambling.

Older Women Are NOW Dating Younger Men | The Legacy Of Women Grooming Young Men by Greg Adams

Love to hear from you; “Send us a Text Message”The most disturbing stories at the border aren't numbers, they're names we never learn. We respond to a clip of reporter Ben Bergquam stepping outside a church to face protesters head-on, and the exchange becomes a window into something bigger: what happens to a culture when it trades truth for slogans and formation for outrage.We talk through the border crisis in human terms, focusing on the vulnerability of innocents and the ways cartels profit when order breaks down. The conversation raises hard questions about illegal immigration, border security, ICE enforcement, and the role of NGOs that receive public funding while facilitating movement across the border. We also unpack the mindset behind easy answers like “tax the billionaires,” and why that kind of thinking spreads faster in a society that has lost shared moral ground.From there, we zoom out to the deeper framework that drives the whole show: the Claymore three-step battle plan. We argue that lasting renewal starts in the human heart, strengthens marriage and the family, and then rebuilds culture through truth, virtue, sacrifice, and love. You'll hear practical next steps, including the Claymore handbook and a simple 10-minute morning ritual designed to pull you out of the spirit of the age and back into prayer, clarity, and courageous action.Visit Claymore Milites Christi to learn more about the Battle Plan for Young Men! Email Jack with questions and comments to answer and discuss on future episodes! jack@ClaymoreMilitesChristi.com. If this conversation challenges you, share it with someone who needs a better framework than outrage.

Men, most of us are drifting. We've been told to go it alone, to suppress our struggles, and to settle for a life defined by comfort rather than calling. We grind away at work but feel isolated at home, carrying a weight that we were never meant to bear in silence.  In this live session recorded at The Men's Forge, Ryan, Larry, and Dwayne sit down to answer the real questions men are facing in the trenches of life. This isn't about sitting back and taking notes - it's about stripping away weakness and gaining the clarity required to step fully into your role as a husband, father, and leader.  We dive deep into the "Trinity of Man," the difference between commitment and compliance, and why most men fail to lead their wives effectively because they mistake dumping baggage for vulnerability. Whether you are struggling to forgive a distant father or trying to navigate a marriage that has drifted into a "logistical partnership," this conversation is a challenge to stop living passively and start forging a legacy that lasts.  SHOW HIGHLIGHTS 00:00 - Introduction 04:54 - Welcome to the Men's Forge AMA 05:19 - Transforming Your Family Legacy 08:41 - The Trinity of Man: Body, Soul, and Spirit 17:20 - Non-Negotiable Systems for Young Men 21:20 - Leading in Resistant Environments 24:20 - Vulnerability vs. Tenderness: The King's Wall 38:31 - Escaping the Comparison Trap 44:01 - Balancing Overthinking and Overdoing 48:01 - Waiting for the Tide: Preparation and Timing 54:40 - Marriage First: The Foundation of the House 01:04:30 - Leaving Yesterday's Man in the Past 01:07:13 - Affirming and Raising Strong Daughters 01:12:00 - Discipline Through Specificity and Calm 01:18:00 - From Pedestals to Humanizing Your Father 01:21:50 - The Reps of Daily Connection 01:29:35 - Final Charge and Closing Encouragement Battle Planners: Pick yours up today!

Women can lose up to 20% of their bone density during menopause. Men lose 20–30% over their lifetime. Most people are told to take calcium or medication — but there's a proven formula that not only stops this process, it reverses it.

Dr. Marc Brackett, PhD, is founding director of the Yale Center for Emotional Intelligence and a professor in the Child Study Center at Yale University. We discuss the science of emotion regulation and practical tools to increase your emotional intelligence. Dr. Brackett clarifies exactly how to do that both in the context of relationships, but also things that you can do on your own to become more emotionally intelligent to later serve you in the context of relationships, work, school, etc. We also discuss how your childhood experiences influence your relationship with emotions, with particular emphasis on how boys and men are socialized around emotional processing and expression.
