I think we all go through these periods in our lives when we don’t feel very spiritual. Do you experience those times at the end of the day when you are like. “I hope God thinks I’m ok. I’m working hard to do more good than bad.” Have you gotten to the point where you aim to at least make it into purgatory?   We are living in a privileged moment of the Holy Spirit when graces and gifts are being poured out upon the lives of ordinary people just like you! Peter Herbeck, Vice President of Renewal Ministries and the host of the Ave Maria Radio show “Fire on the Earth”, and I are going to challenge you to shake your lowered expectations this week and help you come to realize how much the Lord loves YOU!

Following Christ can be tough. I know as well as you do that it's not easy. So what does it take to be a disciple? It takes a conscious choice to be like Jesus every day. To do that, means spending time with Him and witnessing about Him to others. This week I welcome Jeff Cavins and we discuss situational awareness and how to look for opportunities throughout your day to pray for someone or witness to Christ. Being a disciple is THAT simple!

We have a front row seat to the future of our Church and the future looks bright! Tizoc Rosales is the Director of Advancement for the Saint Paul Seminary and the Saint John Vianney College Seminary in Minnesota. As he tells us he’s not in the business of forming priests, he is in the business of forming MEN. Young men, Tizoc and I have a message for you. You’ve lived through some things and seen some things that have caused you to pause. You’ve seen the institutions we thought were stable fall away. 9-11 and other recent events have forever changed us. It’s time for your generation to turn to God. We are all sinful and we all need healing. The time is now. You are our future. Learn more about the Seminaries of Saint Paul and Saint John Vianney here.

Men you are standing in the breach between the devil and your family. Be a man with a disciplined prayer life. Be a contemplative thinking holy thoughts throughout the day. Put on sacramentals. Read the Bible daily. Go to Mass every week. Quit making excuses and be a man! Jesse Romero joins me this week and together we are going to give you some tools to take into spiritual battle with you!

I often share my testimony of my return to the Catholic faith. This week Keith Nester joins me and we have a great discussion about both of our conversions. Keith was raised a United Methodist pastors kid and became a pastor himself. As he became more engaged in his faith he encountered a number of Catholics who showed him the true beauty of the Catholic faith. Keith became inundated with books, videos, and other material that simply blew his mind. Catholicism got him and he eventually converted to the Catholic faith. Once he abandoned himself he was locked into that wave, ready for the ride of his life. I love this guy and can’t wait for you to hear how he has totally sold out his heart for Jesus!
