Men, we are in a fight. The world is trying to strip us of our faith, silence our voices, and make us conform. But the truth is this: Christ has already won. From the 20th Sunday in OT, Fr. Dom shares his recent experiences on pilgrimage, ministry, and the frontlines of the faith.

You’ll hear about the authentic pilgrimage through Italy walking in the footsteps of St. Francis and St. Clare, the power of worshipping with 1.1 million young Catholics at a youth rally with the Holy Father, and the profound gift of the Holy Mass, our greatest weapon in the battle for souls.

This isn’t about comfort. It’s about sacrifice, endurance, and courage. It’s about laying your very self on the altar of sacrifice every single Mass. That is where strength is forged. That is how we set the world on fire for Christ.

If you’re tired of being silent. If you’re tired of compromise. If you’re ready to fight for your family, your Church, and your soul, this homily will equip you with clarity, conviction, and challenge.

3 Powerful Quotes from the Episode:

1. “Every Mass we go to is Calvary in a supernatural way.”
2. “Stand up for the truth, we will be persecuted sometimes. But what a gift—God says that’s a gift.”
3. “You’re so focused on the offertory and putting everything on the altar, because it’s going to be radiated in a supernatural way the Church teaches.”

Key Takeaway for Men:
At every Mass, lay your very self—your struggles, your family, your sins, and your victories—on the altar of sacrifice. This is not optional. This is how men become holy, strong, and prepared to fight.

The Feast of the Assumption is not a quaint Catholic tradition. Mary, the New Eve, was taken body and soul into Heaven, preserved from corruption, crowned in glory, and placed beside her Son as Queen. This truth is not optional for us as Catholic men. It is a dogma of the Church. And it is a challenge.

Fr. Dom takes you deep into the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary. Drawing from Scripture, the early Church Fathers, and Pope Pius XII’s declaration of the dogma in 1950, he unpacks why this feast matters for men right now. Mary shows us what it means to receive Christ, act with zeal, and go into the world with courage and conviction. Her life was not passive; she moved with the Holy Spirit and lived in complete fidelity to God.

This is not simply about Mary. It’s about your mission as a Catholic man. Do you go out into the world bringing Christ, or do you sit idly by while the faith is mocked, minimized, or ignored? The Assumption confronts us with the reality that if Mary, fully human, can triumph by God’s grace, then so can we. But it requires action, faith, and sacrifice.

Fr. Dom also highlights the unity of Mary’s four dogmas:

• Mary, Mother of God
• Perpetual Virginity
• Immaculate Conception
• The Assumption

Each one reveals her unique role in salvation history and points us to Christ. Rejecting these truths is rejecting Christ Himself, because every Marian dogma magnifies His power and glory.

As Catholic men, we cannot afford to remain lukewarm. Mary went in haste. She lived with urgency. And she calls us to do the same.

The Challenge Issued in This Episode:
Stop hiding your faith. Let the world know you are Catholic. If Mary could go forth with zeal after receiving Christ, then you too must rise and carry Him into your family, workplace, and community.

Powerful Quotes from the Episode:

1. “Mary received the Body of Christ—and she went. She moved. She did something. Are we compelled by the Holy Spirit the way she was?”
2. “There are no first-class relics of Mary because her body was assumed into Heaven. Her tomb is empty.”
3. “The Assumption is not just about Mary’s incorruptibility—it’s about her triumph over death, united with her Son. And that victory is the promise for us too.”

Key Takeaway for Men:
Live with urgency. Like Mary, do not sit idle after receiving Christ in the Eucharist. Move in haste, filled with the Holy Spirit, and bring Christ boldly into the world.

If you are ready to stop being passive in your faith and start living as a man on fire for Christ, this episode will challenge and inspire you.

Men, the battle is here. In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Jared Staudt from Exodus 90 to issue a bold call: prepare for spiritual war through St. Michael’s Lent, starting August 15th.

Your marching orders have arrived.

We dive deep into the origins and spiritual power of St. Michael’s Lent, a 40-day Catholic challenge inspired by the great St. Francis of Assisi and rooted in ancient tradition. Learn why this penitential season is critical for men today, how the Exodus 90 team has structured it for modern warriors, and why discipline, order, and sacrifice are the weapons we need now more than ever.

You’ll learn the why behind each discipline and how each is crafted to bring order to your soul, sharpen your spiritual edge, and strengthen your mission as a man of God.

We discuss:

• The spiritual and psychological warfare men face today
• The demonic hatred of order and how discipline drives demons out
• The role of St. Michael the Archangel in exorcisms and daily spiritual combat
• Why rest, leisure, and celebrating the Lord’s Day are battle strategies, not indulgences
• How true fraternity unlocks spiritual breakthroughs men cannot achieve alone

Challenge Issued in this Episode:
Step into the breach. Find a fraternity. Get the app. Sign up for St. Michael’s Lent. Offer your disciplines for your family. Wake up at 2 a.m. and pray like the Desert Fathers. Let your body rest and your soul fight. The Church needs men who are ready. Are you one of them?

Key Takeaway:

Order is a weapon. Demons hate structure. Your disciplines form a spiritual perimeter. Build it. Guard it. Live it.

Three Powerful Quotes from the Episode:

1. “When you wake up in the night and everyone else is asleep, you're not breaking off from work or putting your phone down — you're just entering right into prayer.”
2. “We're not called to suffer pointlessly. Every act of self-denial must have a purpose — for God, for your wife, for your children, for your brothers.”
3. “Saint Michael didn’t negotiate with evil. He cast it out. Men today need that same fire in their hearts.”

Imagine a world without rules. No stoplights. No order. No boundaries. Just chaos. That’s exactly what Satan wants: not just in the world but in your soul.

From the 15th Sunday in Ordinary Time, Fr. Dom breaks open the Gospel of the Good Samaritan in a way you’ve never heard before. This isn’t a sentimental message about “being nice.” It’s a battle cry for Catholic men to return to order and to recognize the Savior who comes not only with mercy but with discipline and authority. Jesus is not just the Samaritan in this story, He’s the King, the Divine Physician, and the Bridegroom who restores broken men, binds their wounds with sacraments, and places them inside His Church to heal.

Do you have the humility to admit you’re the wounded man? Will you allow Christ to perform spiritual surgery on your soul? Or will you keep limping in chaos, wounded and angry, rejecting the very order that heals you?

This episode will convict you. It will challenge you. And it will show you how the Church—through the priesthood, the sacraments, and the Mass—is the battlefield medic station every man needs.

🔥 3 Powerful Quotes from the Episode:

1. “The evil one loves chaos. That’s why Moses said, ‘Heed the Lord’s commandments.’”
2. “The Samaritan poured oil and wine into the wounds—those are the sacraments. That is how Jesus heals us.”
3. “Jesus brings you to the inn—His Church—and hands you over to the priest, the innkeeper. And He says: take care of him.”

⚔️ The Challenge (issued directly in the episode):

Men, look at your life. Are you living with discipline under God's law—or are you ruled by your passions, wandering in chaos? Christ wants to heal you, but you have to let Him. Don’t just show up at Mass. Surrender. Be healed. Submit to His order. And then, go and do likewise.

✅ One Key Takeaway to Apply Immediately:

Accept Christ’s authority and healing through the sacraments. Submit to His law—not your feelings—and you will find peace and purpose.

Men...this is your wake-up call.

In this solemn Corpus Christi message, Fr. Dom lays down a spiritual gauntlet for every Catholic man. Drawing from John 6, the chilling testimony of a former Satanist, and undeniable Eucharistic miracles verified by secular science, this episode is a gripping challenge to rise, believe, and live as if the Eucharist truly is what Christ said it is.

Fr. Dom dives headfirst into the mystery and reality of the Holy Eucharist, the beating heart of our faith—and the battleground Satan most wants to desecrate. This isn’t a theological lecture—it’s a direct call for action, faith, and reverence. You will never look at the Mass or Holy Communion the same way again.

If you’ve grown lukewarm, distracted, or have ever doubted the Real Presence, this episode is for you. If you want to be a man of God, a true soldier of Christ, then lift up your heart and listen.

🔥 Powerful Quotes:

1. “Even Satan knows what the Eucharist is. It is real.”
2. “Every time you receive a consecrated host, it’s all the flesh and it is all the blood… You receive it fully, wholly.”
3. “Do we lift up our hearts to the Lord? Do we give our hearts over to Him so our heart can be like His?”

⚔️ Your Challenge:

Men, stop treating the Mass like a checkbox. Don’t coast through the most powerful miracle on earth. Prepare yourself. Be in a state of grace. Lift up your heart and receive the heart of Christ. Then live like it.

Most Catholic men can recite the Sign of the Cross in their sleep. But do we truly grasp what we’re invoking every time we say those words?

Fr. Dom cuts through the confusion and calls Catholic men to stand firm in one of the most attacked and misunderstood dogmas of our faith: the Most Holy Trinity. From Scripture to heresy, from the Catechism to the Creed, this episode dives deep into why the Trinity is not just a theological concept—but the very heart of Christian manhood.

We walk through salvation history, tracing how the Trinity was slowly unveiled, culminating in Pentecost when God fully revealed Himself as Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. This is not just a mystery to study—it’s a mystery to live. And in a world that mocks the sacred, we are challenged to reclaim our bold, public witness to this truth.

Fr. Dom reminds us that every time we make the Sign of the Cross, we are drawing the sword of Christ's victory over Satan. Every confession, every Eucharist, every act of prayer—these are moments where we are in direct contact with the living Trinity.

But how many men cower when it’s time to make the Sign of the Cross in public?

This episode issues a direct challenge: Catholic men must stop being ashamed of their faith. Stop being passive. Start embracing the power of the Trinity that was poured into your heart at baptism.

Key Challenge Issued:

One Key Takeaway for Men:
Begin and end your day making the Sign of the Cross slowly and reverently. Do it with conviction. Do it in public. Do it as if your soul depends on it—because it does.

💬 Three Powerful Quotes from the Episode:

1. “Try to understand the Trinity and you’ll lose your mind. Try to deny it and you’ll lose your soul.”
2. “The cross is the weapon that destroyed Satan’s kingdom—and the Trinity is the power behind that victory.”
3. “There’s no language in the world that can describe the love God has for you, poured into your heart by the Trinity.”

Final Word to Catholic Men:
The Trinity is not just a dogma—it is the battlefield on which your soul stands or falls. Enter into the mystery. Live it. Defend it. Die for it if you must. But never, ever ignore it.

The Church has entered a historic moment—and you, Catholic man, have a mission. In this episode of The Manly Catholic, we reflect on the election of Pope Leo XIV, the first American Pope in the history of the Church, and the profound implications this moment holds for Catholic men across the world. This isn’t just a historical event—it’s a spiritual challenge.

With clarity, conviction, and a deep love for the Bride of Christ, Pope Leo XIV comes out of the gates with power. Drawing from the charism of the Augustinians and inspired by Pope Leo XIII, our new Holy Father is already taking bold, countercultural stands. In just his first week, he infallibly declared that marriage is between one man and one woman and proclaimed the family as the nucleus of civilization. He is not holding back—and neither should we.

We are facing our own Industrial Revolution: Artificial Intelligence, the breakdown of the family, confusion about human identity and sexuality, and an increasing rejection of moral truth. But like Pope Leo XIII before him, Leo XIV is standing in the breach—and he’s calling us to do the same.

Key Takeaway: Live your faith publicly and boldly.

Do not hide behind silence or comfort. Proclaim Christ with your life, especially in your home. Begin by strengthening your marriage and leading your family in sacrificial love. That is where the Church is rebuilt.

References & Products Mentioned:

• Pope Leo XIII’s encyclicals, especially Rerum Novarum
• The St. Michael the Archangel Prayer
• St. Augustine’s quote: “Our hearts are restless until they rest in You.”
• The “Room of Tears” tradition in papal history
• The Gospel of John 13:34–35
• Catechism of the Catholic Church (sections on papal infallibility, marriage, and the Church)

Final Charge:
Pope Leo XIV isn’t waiting around—and neither can you. Catholic man, your home is your mission field. Your vocation is your battlefield. And your courage, forged in love, is the weapon that will rebuild the Church.

Most men wake up in chaos and go to bed in silence—but not in prayer.

In this final installment of our “Daily Grind” series, I give you the strategy every Catholic man needs to end his day with clarity, discipline, and purpose. If you’re not examining your day with God every night, then you are drifting—and drift is deadly in spiritual combat.

This episode is your call to war.
Not against the world—but against your own mediocrity.

We walk through the 3 essentials of a nighttime routine that isn’t about comfort—it’s about conversion:

• Review your day under the gaze of God.
• Repent of your failures with humility.
• Resolve to rise and fight again tomorrow.

This isn't fluff. This is about forming the habit of holiness through repetition. This is about reclaiming your night from the Enemy and entrusting it to Christ. This is about ending your day like a saint-in-training—not a slave to screens or laziness.

I issue a clear challenge: You have no excuse not to do this.
Stop wasting your nights. Stop lying to yourself that you're too tired. You are a man of God—act like it.

You want to be a priest of your home?
Then end your day as a priest, offering the sacrifice of your failures and victories to the Lord.

🔑 Key Takeaway:
Start an evening examen—tonight. No delay. 5 minutes. Reflect, repent, resolve. Make it a non-negotiable.

💬 3 Powerful Quotes:

1. “Your day doesn’t end with Netflix. Your day ends with the Cross.”
2. “If you’re too tired to pray, you’re too tired to lead.”
3. “When men stop examining their lives, the Devil fills the silence.”

📦 Resources Mentioned:

• The Examen Prayer (St. Ignatius of Loyola)
• The Liturgy of the Hours (Night Prayer)

👊 Final Challenge to Men:
Be intentional. End your day with God or end it with excuses. Every night is a battle. Finish strong. Review your day. Repent of your sins. Resolve to be better. That’s how Catholic men fight.
