Who was St. Joseph in real life? Not some distant figure on a pedestal. No, he was a flesh-and-blood man. He had to pray, listen to God, and live chastely. Picture a man wrestling with his longing for greatness and his desire to serve God.
There were times when St. Joseph didn’t know what to do. He felt helpless. But he knew where to turn: God. And he knew how to do it: entering into silence. That’s what makes him great.
We cover:
• Four pillars of greatness.
• St. Joseph’s authority in the Holy Family.
• Your responsibility to embrace the dignity of women.
• Looking to God for your identity and mission.
• And more.

We are called to radical conversion, not some lukewarm, complacent Catholicism, but an on fire passionate existence in pursuit of life everlasting. Christ declared, "And every one that hath left house, or brethren, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or lands for my name's sake, shall receive an hundredfold, and shall possess life everlasting.” What did he mean by this text, and how often do men use their family as an excuse to avoid not fully committing to Him? We are going to go into this reality as well as offer 5 challenges and the enemies to those challenges, to help you live the best Lent ever.

Today we address a great conversation that occurred on the Diary of a CEO debating the economic effects of Trump's election. The conversation quickly turned into the global crisis of masculinity today and the commentators found themselves unexpectedly on common grounds. John Heinen and Devin Schadt listen and respond to clips from atheist Scott Galloway, agnostic Konstantin Kisin, Daniel Priestly, and Steven Bartlett as they try and make worldly sense of what it means to be a man. We discuss the overwhelming large global issue that occurs when masculinity is denied, Trump's view of masculinity, why men need a code of life, and how to raise sons in times like these.

Depression is on the rise, and the mental health crisis affects everyone. When addressing our lives as body, mind, and soul—always at war with the forces of evil—the concept of spiritual desolation inevitably arises.

Today, John Heinen, Devin Schadt, and Sam Guzman (a mental health counselor) discuss the differences between the two and how to overcome each.

There has been a growing obsession with Halloween and horror in recent years. Halloween is now America's 2nd largest commercial holiday, and its fascination does not appear to be in decline. When you consider the argument of this festival's pagan roots, Catholics are often left confused. Today John Heinen, Sam Guzman, and Devin Schadt discuss the Catholic origins of Halloween as well as Hallowstide, and explain what we, as men, can do with our families and neighbors to take back Halloween.
Inside of CG+, we also get to answer a question from a listener who is in his mid-30s, unmarried, and wondering what to do to improve his seemingly hopeless life circumstances.

The most elite, successful, and powerful people have their bag of tricks, skill sets, hacks, daily routines, and habits. They use them, profess them, and generate a ton of online traffic, views, subs, and money from them. Today John Heinen and Devin Schadt discuss the real source of their wisdom which is the Catholic Church. From its rich monastic heritage and the teachings of Jesus Christ, all of these practices originate from the Church's understanding of the nature of man and how practicing these habits can help improve your life.

John Heinen, Devin Schadt, and Sam Guzman explore the nature of marriage in our fast-paced hook-up culture and examine why some men (and women) argue that men should avoid marriage. With declining marriage rates and persistently high divorce rates, it's clear that marriage is challenging, leading millions to opt out entirely. We discuss 5 reasons why marriage is difficult for men and why some argue we should abandon this supposedly outdated social construct. But is there truth to these statements? The discussion reveals how these five reasons fall short in helping men live their best lives and uncovers the enduring value of marriage.
We also get to answer a question from a listener about how to pray and improve his life after a devastating divorce.

WARNING: This episode contains adult content. John Heinen and Devin Schadt explore the seven torments of hell as described in Scripture and elucidated by saints and doctors of the Church. Every person of goodwill should be aware of these torments to inspire a deeper commitment to holiness and truth. Few doctrines of the Faith cause more discomfort and denial among Christians than the existence of hell. How could an all-good and loving God allow eternal damnation for finite failings? These questions and a lot more are addressed in today's discussion.

John Heinen, Devin Schadt, and Sam Guzman meet to discuss the confusing and often controversial topic of working on Sundays. We are called to abstain from work on Sundays, and indeed it can be sinful to engage in unnecessary labor. Yet we face the challenge of discerning what constitutes work, how we as men living for God can fulfill this precept, and what we should avoid to ensure our Sundays remain holy. We explore what the Church actually teaches, why leisure is essential for our lives, and what can prevent the Holy Day from being truly effective.

John Heinen meets with Dan Burke to dive into how we can clearly know God's will in our lives. Looking at the great Doctor of the Church, St. Alphonsus, we discuss the truths that everyone needs to hear and commit to memory. We often view our relationship with God as some sort of game to be won, rather than a loving union to be experienced and strengthened. Our decisions can be flooded with stress and anxiety, and our suffering can feel isolating. However, we can find peace in the storms of our struggles; even in the uncertainty of our decisions, God's will can be known, and aligning our lives with it is the ultimate victory.

I have the privilege of speaking with Fr. Roger Landry, who embarked on an extraordinary 1,200-mile plus Eucharistic pilgrimage across the United States while carrying Christ. We explore the profound impact of bringing Jesus in the Eucharist to tens of thousands of people, where even the most indifferent hearts were moved. Fr. Landry shares stories of people stopping their cars, stepping onto the scalding asphalt to kneel in reverence, and experiencing conversions of heart amidst a world often filled with loneliness and apathy. He even had the opportunity to offer a procession in a prison yard, leading something that has likely never happened before in the United States of America. Despite facing some insults, the journey was marked by overwhelming love and transformation. Join us as we delve into these powerful moments of faith and devotion.

This propelled him into addictions, the loss of his daughter, and the realization that his life was unhinged. His powerful conversion story brings up conversations of God's mercy, physical healing, spiritual healing, and the pathway forward as a better man. We discuss doing the harder thing no matter the cost.

Today, we discuss an aspect of Catholicism that affects our ability to live out our calling in life, grow as a community, evangelize to others, and love as Christ requires. When we think of our relationships and how we are called to be friends, it only scratches the surface of the truth that today's guest, Jason Craig, brings to the forefront. Our culture and society are not helping men grow in this truth, and it is intentional. This is intentional because the world is against Christ and His Church. Join us and learn how you can better experience this joy in your life and share it with others.

Today, John, Devin, and Sam are discussing something that—from our perspective—is quite possibly never proclaimed, discussed, or pondered by men in the Church today. Could this be the very reason why only 31% of Mass going Catholics believe Our Savior is present in the Eucharist? We want to be clear: today’s episode is not just another discussion about Christ’s real presence in the Eucharist, or a lamentation regarding the crisis of faith. We will be conversing about something so serious, so powerful that it could be the most dangerous and important thing you will ever do.

Exorcist priest, Fr. Chad Ripperger, joins us to discuss the general entitlement belief and effeminacy pervasive in men today. We find boys moving to this state of adolescence and frankly never getting out of it. Not only is this state of existence contrary to right order, it stunts growth and keeps boys mentally, emotionally, spiritually, and physically trapped in immaturity. Fr. Ripperger addresses this issue by breaking down the reality of how men are raised and what can be done to actively raise our sons to be men. He then discusses how his father and his life growing up greatly influenced him in his life as an exorcist battling demons on a regular basis. This is a great conversation with practical steps we can all use.

We find ourselves in unprecedented times, where over 69% of Church going Catholics no longer believe in the unchanging dogma of Christ's presence in the Eucharist. This is a grave problem that all men must ask themselves: Why? Fr. Donald Calloway joins John Heinen to discuss the reasons this has been an increasing problem over the last 50 years and the solutions. Reverence and love of Christ in the Eucharist is paramount to getting to heaven and there are actions that everyone can do now. In addition, we discuss his newest book on the Eucharist and the Mass that will help you be a better son or daughter of the Church. This is a great conversation with practical steps we can all use.

There are only two options that you can take in this world. There is no divide or alternative option and you must choose. We hear politicians, preachers, self-help gurus, and influencers use the term “red-pill" all the time to refer to finally being awake to reality. But, perhaps we are not as awake and woke as we think we are. What if most of us are actually taking the blue pill daily? In today’s episode, John, Devin, and Sam will discuss how to know if you are liberated from the matrix or conditioned and placated by it.
We also answer a listener's question about handling his wife's emotions.

Women need the strength of men. It is not just a biological reality but one that expands to all aspects of a man's relationship with a woman. Regardless of what popular opinion, ideologies, or political agendas might suggest, without the strength of men our society would crumble. Today, Sam, Devin, and John discuss a recent Kent State University study that aimed to prove masculinity is inherently flawed and dominating and that the more awareness of this issue the better our society will be. Instead, it proved the opposite because of what it failed to realize about love and the benefits of masculinity. From here we discuss 5 ways women need the strength of men.
We also get to answer a question from a listener whose girlfriend is more advanced in her faith 'credentials' than him and he is concerned about how he will lead.

We hear a lot about the Good News today, but we do not hear much about the bad news. However, as Peter Kreeft has stated, without the bad news, the good news is meaningless. Sin is not spoken of frequently enough, glossed over, and sometimes outright ignored. We all know that the secular world champions vice and acts as if it is virtue, and while this complete reversal might not affect you totally, it likely has lessened the degree to which you despise sin in your life. Today we go into sin, what it is, what it is not, and two devastating ways that men often deal with sin in their lives. As we look to Christ on the Cross, it is necessary to understand how our sin has put him there and the mercy that is available to us.

Today, John, Sam, and Devin have decided to delve into the two archetypes that shape every one of us and profoundly impact our existence. We have chosen these two archetypes due to the intricate interplay between them and how they mutually support and complete each other. God has created men to be a wellspring of power and positive change for the world, but that same power can also be harnessed for evil. Let's focus our attention on how these Christ-like images within us influence our lives and how we can harness them to triumph in life.

Today, John, Sam, and Devin dive deep into the compelling topic of why men often seek respect but sometimes for misguided reasons. They explore how this desire for respect is etched into the core of a man's being, often intertwined with the desire for love. However, the hosts emphasize the need for this to be guided correctly because the opposite leads to vainglory, a sin that veers us off the virtuous path. Tune in as they articulate the essential rules that men should hold close to their hearts, guiding them on the journey to earn respect in a way that aligns with God's divine plan for their lives.

Binding Prayer by Fr. Chad Ripperger
In the name of Jesus Christ, Our Lord and God,
Jesus, I ask You to render all spirits impotent, paralyzed and ineffective in attempting to take revenge against me, my family, my friends, my community, and those who pray for me and my family.
I ask You to bind all evil spirits, all powers of the air, the water, the ground, the fire, under ground, or wherever they exercise their powers, any satanic forces in nature and any and all emissaries of the satanic headquarters.
I ask You to bind by Thy Precious Blood all of the attributes, aspects and characteristics, interactions, communications and deceitful games of the evil spirits.
I ask You to break any and all bonds, ties, and attachments in the Name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit.
Amen.
Fr. Ken Geraci lived the life of the prodigal son for most of his young adult life. Raised in a nominally Catholic family, who only lived the externals of the faith, as a young man, he left the Catholic Church for many years. During that time, he earned a business degree and achieved business success, but made little room for God. God, however, did not give up on him. During this journey, Our Lord presented him with challenges that forced him to question his personal beliefs and to ask the question "What is Truth?" Through a series of conversions, years of struggle, study and questioning, Fr. Ken found his way from agnosticism, to non-denominational Christianity, and ultimately back to the Catholic Church. Fr. Ken joined the Fathers of Mercy in 2006 and was ordained in 2012.

Today John, Sam, and our guest, Gabriel Castillo, discuss the captivating journey from being an MTV trained sinner of the world to becoming an on-fire Catholic evangelist with over 20 Million video views online. From his early days of mocking Catholicism while attending St. Thomas University to a moment of divine revelation during Adoration, where he heard inexplicable things and was moved to tears, his life took an unexpected turn. Yet, he continued to grapple with living a sinful lifestyle and trying to be a holy Catholic man. It was a chilling demonic encounter that finally pushed him to seek redemption through confession, sparking a profound conversion.
We then explore how to live a life aligned with Christ's teachings, the power of devotion to Our Blessed Mother to guarantee success in life, and becoming an instrument of Grace in the world. Drawing inspiration from the lives of saints like St. Maximilian Kolbe, St. Teresa of Avila, St. Francis de Sales, St. Louis de Montfort, and many others, you will be sure to learn a lot about prayer, devotion to Our Lady, and how to handle the tough challenges of life with peace and joy.

To solve any problem, we must first understand the situation and the more we can discern the causes, the more effectively we can identify a solution. Today's guest has raised and spent 20 million dollars seeking to know the cause for the decline of Christianity, specifically church attendance and open affiliation, in the West.

Recognizing the disorder within our culture is the initial step toward rectifying the missteps, often subtle, within our individual lives. Today we discuss how the world is playing this out on a grand scale which culminates in seeing things and even people simply as a means to our own personal ends. In light of this, Dr. John Cuddeback engages with us to assert that we must first identify and be aware of this limited and disordered mindset to begin to re-order and improve our lives and those around us. However, it is not enough to speak of things in the abstract or philosophical sense, we bring this knowledge into the fabric of our daily lives and offer a number of actionable methods through which we can start living out our best life.

He believed that the Catholic Church was run by Satan, the whore of Babylon, and that the anti-christ would come directly from the papacy. Our guest today, Jeremy Robinson, fought against Catholics and evangelized to win souls to Christ. However, one day while reading the Scripture verse, "Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have," he was struck and realized he could not answer this question to atheists or agnostics. It was the beginning of his journey to become Catholic.
He is now on-fire to bring everyone to the Catholic Faith while running a full-service video production company that makes videos for Mercedes, Google, IBM, Canon, Gillette, Marriott, American Airlines, and many more. This is a story of passion, fear, loss of friends, pain, and Grace.

David Abernethy, shares the historical, ontological, and practical depths of this spiritual discipline.

In one sense, feasting has a higher place in the Church than fasting, yet we very often never discuss this. How do we feast correctly? What are the practices we need to truly experience feasting so as to live more abundantly? We unpack all of this today.

When your summer is filled with travel, late night conversations, and children staying up late or not active in school work, it can be an occasion to loosen your own disciplines and perseverance in holiness. We discuss ways to avoid this from happening, as well as insights as to what unique opportunities summer can provide us. Finally, we turn to Archbishop Fulton Sheen to remind us of three laws necessary to achieve true happiness.

We also discuss the most transformative new platform for men to get answers to their questions, grow in holiness with other men, and receive constant new content and challenges.

As a devout Catholic father of 7, a lawyer, and a man actively running for city council, he has already brought change to his city and is on the campaign trail to bring more.

Beauty belongs to Catholicism, yet we see fewer and fewer traces of this in our modern Churches. Men often ignore this transcendental and lack a depth of understanding of the objective nature of beauty. It is time to learn how beauty is tied to truth and goodness and how it can awaken within your soul an improved man. We are joined today by Robert Puschautz, a professional artist of the Stabat Mater Foundation, to learn why this is the case and how we can fix it.
Stabat Mater Foundation - https://www.stabatmater.org/art
Robert Puschautz IG - https://www.instagram.com/robertpuschautz
"We no longer dare to believe in beauty and we make of it a mere appearance in order the more easily to dispose of it. Our situation today shows that beauty demands for itself at least as much courage and decision as do truth and goodness, and she will not allow herself to be separated and banned from her two sisters without taking them along with herself in an act of mysterious vengeance. We can be sure that whoever sneers at her name as if she were the ornament of a bourgeois past -- whether he admits it or not -- can no longer pray and soon will no longer be able to love." - Hans Urs von Balthazar

Sean Bryan is most known for his participation in the hit TV show American Ninja Warrior, where he has taken on the identity of the "Papal Ninja," stealthily taking on his role in the mission of the Church to evangelize the world. Sean received his Bachelor’s of Arts at UC Berkeley, where he studied physics and was on the men’s gymnastics team. He completed his Master of Arts in Theology with a Salesian Studies concentration at the Dominican School of Philosophy & Theology. His Masters thesis analyzed the ecclesiology inherent to documents of the Second Vatican Council, and proposes the Scriptural notion of liturgy as an interpretive lens that elucidates the relationship between formal ritual worship and its integrated expression in everyday life. His exploration led to practical applications geared toward the animation of the faithful in the Church’s mission, including the Lay Mission Project: an in-depth disciple-community formation experience that enables the laity to live the faith in their daily lives, foster strong relationships, and transform your world. In his spare time, Sean co-founded Traverse Fitness, a ninja warrior gym that trains the current, and next generation of obstacle course racers, many of whom are underprivileged kids whose memberships are discounted and subsidized through donations.

Today John and Sam are joined by a Knight of the Holy Eucharist, Br. Angelo, to discuss the crisis of men losing their faith in the Eucharist. This is a problem that goes to the very depths of our Faith and is a non-negotiable teaching of Catholicism. Still, we find the majority of Catholic men not understanding or even believing in Christ's real presence in the Eucharist. With the help of Our Lady, we seek to correct this error and show men a way to deepen their understanding and ultimate love of Christ.

Leszek Sikon - Originally from Poland, Leszek came to the UK 17 years ago. He earned a decent living as a middle manager in retail yet this career left me feeling wholly unfulfilled. Leszek knew that he wanted to create something that would last. He was used to getting dirty and working with his hands – so he was thrilled to learn that Hereford College of Arts ran a blacksmithing course. The next thing he knew, he quit his job and started training.
Since then he has found his passion in producing a series of superb artisan tools and knives, using age-old skills to produce modern objects of desire. His inspiration comes from the history and the traditional methods, getting to grips with hammers, tongs, and fire. Having these skills has paid off more than a career in retail ever would.

"True perception comes with virtue, specifically the virtue of humility,
it is humility that gives us a sense of gratitude,
it is gratitude that opens the eyes to wonder,
and it is only when the eyes are open to wonder that we are moved to contemplation,
and it is only when we are moved to contemplation that the mind is open to dilation,
and it is dilation which is the full opening of the mind to reality." - Joseph Pearce on The Catholic Gentleman
Joseph Pearce is a premier literary biographer and author of our time, especially in reviewing the depths of the Catholic literary tradition. He is the author of acclaimed biographies of G.K. Chesterton, Oscar Wilde, Hilaire Belloc, and J.R.R. Tolkien, and books on English poetry and literature.
He has hosted two 13-part television series about Shakespeare on EWTN, and has also written and presented documentaries on EWTN on the Catholicism of The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit. His verse drama, Death Comes for the War Poets, was performed off-Broadway to critical acclaim.

In this episode of The Catholic Gentleman, Sam and John are joined by a 3rd Generation Master Luthier, Jarrett Schaub. As we work to build up a culture of holy men, we are blessed to have Jarrett share with us how to build guitars and how God has affected his life as a guitar maker, husband, and father. Join us as we discuss the joys of music, family, faith, and leisure.
In this episode we discuss;
Jarrett Schaub is a devout Catholic convert, husband, father, and third generation luthier hand-crafting custom acoustic guitars in Evergreen, Colorado.
Jarrett grew up in a large family of musicians, a heritage which began with his grandfather Reid Schaub—a talented guitarist who played for Buddy Holly during his college years in Lubbock, Texas. Reid later joined The Leon River Stump Jumpers before creating his own family band, which included his four children. The youngest, Jarrett’s father Roland, went on to lead a touring band in the 90's, and he's still playing venues in Texas today. Jarrett spent his childhood surrounded by guitars and live music, and by age 14 had mastered the guitar by playing along to his father’s cassette tape recordings. He eventually found himself on stage as well, touring as Jarrett Schaub and the Vagabonds for several years throughout Texas. He stepped away in 2012 to focus on his growing family.
Jarrett built his first guitar in 2002 in his grandfather's guitar shop. Reid Schaub had been building acoustic guitars and mandolins since 1968, and he was eager to pass his wisdom on to future generations. For many years the Schaub family held weekly sessions in Reid’s guitar shop, with three generations of Schaub men learning and working together under one roof.
