  • Becoming a Prophet of Our Time, A Homily with Fr. Dom
    Jul 26 2024

    Send us a Text Message.

    Fr. Dom explores the themes of being prophets, the significance of baptism, the history of the split of the 12 tribes of Israel, the role of the apostles in uniting the tribes, and the call for all Catholics to be prophets in their own way. In this homily, he encourages us to embrace our baptism and use it as a source of strength and unity. He touches on the power of prayer and fasting, the importance of never giving up on praying for those who have fallen away from the Catholic faith, and the various ways in which individuals can be prophets.

    Takeaways

    1. We are called to be prophets and mouthpieces of God, just like Amos and the apostles.
    2. Baptism is a powerful gift that connects us to God and gives us the strength to be prophets.
    3. The split in the 12 tribes of Israel was a result of division, schism, and idolatry.
    4. The apostles, as bishops, unite the tribes and continue the work of baptism and bringing restoration and unity.
    5. All Catholics are called to be prophets in their own way, whether through evangelization, prayer, fasting, or other means.

    • "Original sin is wiped away. Wow. Nothing wipes away original sin. Original sin is the effect of Adam and Eve in the garden. We're born into it. Nothing gets rid of it except baptism."
    • "And I'll do it. And he unites the 12 tribes finally with the 12 apostles. That's a huge connection that we need to make as Catholics. That the tribes have been united."
    • "Guess what? You are prophets. You are the mouthpiece of God. And the baptism gives you strength and confession and the Eucharist and confirmation. That's what you're called to do."

  • Ep 123 - Defending the Faith: Bishop Athanasius Schneider on Heresy, Modernism, and Catholic Truth
    Jul 10 2024

    Send us a Text Message.

    What is the true nature of heresy, and how does it threaten the integrity of our faith? Join us for an eye-opening episode of the Manly Catholic featuring the esteemed Bishop Athanasius Schneider. We start by unpacking the etymology and severe implications of heresy as a violation of divine truth. Bishop Schneider, drawing from his latest book, shares profound insights into over 130 doctrinal errors throughout history and underscores the vital role of bishops as spiritual physicians. We also tackle the pressing issue of "cafeteria Catholics" who selectively follow Church teachings, thereby undermining the unity of divine revelation.

    Can excommunication be a form of love and protection for the Church? This engaging segment confronts the modernist heresy, which poses a significant threat to religious convictions today. By drawing parallels between spiritual health and disease, we argue the necessity of excommunication as a corrective measure. Modernism, rooted in Kantian philosophy and nominalism, is dissected for its dangerous impact on the stability of divine truth. Bishop Schneider passionately discusses the erosion of religious convictions and the acceptance of practices contrary to traditional Church teachings, reinforcing the importance of adhering steadfastly to doctrinal truth amidst cultural shifts.

    How can we truly appreciate the depth and beauty of Catholic truth? In this final segment, we delve into the divine origin and timeless teachings of the Catholic faith. From the Trinity to the Eucharist, Bishop Schneider emphasizes the importance of deepening one’s faith through prayerful reflection and meditation. We also have the privilege of introducing his forthcoming book, "Flee from Heresy: A Catholic Guide to Ancient and Modern Errors," set for release on July 16th, 2024. The episode concludes with a heartfelt blessing from the Bishop, inspiring listeners to continue growing in their faith and standing firm against modern heresies.

    Jul 3 2024

    Send us a Text Message.

    Ladies and gentlemen, he is back! Fr. Dom is back in the saddle. This conversation explores a large variety of topics as we take some questions from some of our listeners. From addiction to mortal sin versus venial sins, we emphasize the importance of being vicious and fighting against addiction, especially in the context of pornography and masturbation. The role of confession and the sacraments in overcoming sin is highlighted, as well as the need for accountability and support. The conversation also touches on the importance of filling one's time with virtuous activities and seeking the guidance of the Holy Spirit. We also discuss the importance of being in a state of grace to receive the Eucharist, the concept of righteous anger, the role of men in fighting against societal issues, the power of the mind, and so much more!

    Takeaways

    1. Confession is essential for those struggling with addiction, as it provides the grace needed to overcome sin.
    2. Mortal sin requires full knowledge and deliberate consent, while venial sin is a less serious violation of God's law.
    3. It is important to be vicious and fight against sin, not allowing it to define who we are.
    4. Filling one's time with virtuous activities and seeking the guidance of the Holy Spirit can help in overcoming addiction and sin. Being in a state of grace is essential to receive the Eucharist
    5. Righteous anger can be a positive force when tempered with virtue
    6. Men have a crucial role in fighting against societal issues and need to be virtuous
    7. The mind is a powerful tool that should be filled with virtuous thoughts
    8. Men should seek the sacraments, particularly through spending time in adoration
    9. Prudence is a vital virtue to ask for in prayer

    Food for Thought

    • "You have to be a monster, you have to be vicious, you have to be a dangerous man"
    • "If you're not in a state of grace, don't receive the Eucharist."
    • "There's nothing wrong with righteous anger."
    • "Imagine if all men had righteous anger, there'd be no more abortion, there'd be no more divorce, there'd be no more contraception or human trafficking."

    Father Matthew Barnum is a dear friend of Fr. Dom and a very holy man. We are pleased to share his homily from what he calls the 2nd Sunday of Corpus Christi. He discusses the importance of reverencing the Holy Eucharist and guarding against any disrespect or mishandling of it. He emphasizes the need for everyone, not just priests, to protect the Eucharist and ensure its proper treatment. Fr. Barnum draws parallels between the reverence shown to earthly kings and the reverence that should be shown to the King of Kings in the Eucharist. He also highlights the significance of paying close attention to the consecration and distribution of the Eucharist during Mass.

    Takeaways

    1. Everyone has a responsibility to guard and protect the Holy Eucharist.
    2. The Eucharist is the complete and total fullness of Christ, body and blood, soul and divinity.
    3. Paying close attention to the consecration and distribution of the Eucharist is crucial.
    4. Treating the Eucharist with reverence is a sign of our love and devotion to Christ.

    Sound Bites

  • Ep 119 - When the Past Collides with the Present, A Prophecy with Jim Valois
    Jun 5 2024

    Send us a Text Message.

    James interviews another James about a Marian apparition and prophecy all the way back from the 16th century and one you probably have never heard about. Inspired partly by Jesse Romero, James Valois wrote about this time-defining apparition in his latest book 'Our Lady's Prophecies, God's Messages for Our Times.' The conversation touches on topics such as the decline in faith and morals, the rise of communism, the importance of repentance, and the hope for restoration.

    Make sure you buy the book here!

    Takeaways

    1. Our Lady's prophecies should be taken seriously and used as a guide for amending our lives and fighting against the cultural challenges of our time.
    2. The decline in faith and morals, the rise of communism, and the push for sin through legislative means are issues that need to be resisted and fought against.
    3. Frequenting the sacraments, attending Mass, and going to confession are important practices for spiritual growth and resistance against darkness.


    Food for Thought

    • "When all will seem like it's lost in darkness, that will be the hour that our Lady steps in and plays her role."
    • "We need to push back and resist that (sin) and spiritually resist and fight against what is wrong in our country."
    • "Thank you so much for entering the fight. Thank you so much for writing this book."
