About this listen

Most Catholics know their doctrine, but few ever examine their attitude. In this episode, TJ Haynes breaks open why humility, obedience, unity, and a teachable spirit are essential for becoming a saint — and how a bad attitude can quietly push you toward heterodoxy, division, or even apostasy. Featuring commentary on a Colorado Springs schismatic group and what their story reveals about the dangers of spiritual pride.

KEY HIGHLIGHTS (Bullet Points for Description or Show Notes)

  • Why attitude determines destiny — holiness isn’t just about doctrine; it’s about disposition.
  • Humility as the first requirement of sainthood — the virtue that unlocks every other virtue.
  • Filial vs servile obedience and why Catholics must obey the Church with trust, not fear.
  • How Protestants misunderstand “worship” and why biblical worship requires sacrifice, priest, and altar.
  • A real-world example of bad Catholic attitude: the Colorado Springs schismatic group ignoring excommunication.
  • Why radical traditionalism and sedevacantism differ by “half a hair.”
  • Why unity is not optional — the Church mirrors the eternal through its oneness.
  • Why orthodoxy without charity can still lead you astray.
  • The danger of Catholics resisting correction — the growing trend I see after 30 years in evangelization.
  • The mystical body of Christ and why obedience to the Church is obedience to Christ.
