Nefarious is hitting the theatres by storm. Highly endorsed by many Catholic priests, including Cardinal Raymond Burke, for its accurate portrayal of the demonic, Nefarious will leave you on the edge of your seat wanting more.

As ChurchPop states on its website summarizing the plot, "On the day of his scheduled execution, a convicted serial killer gets a psychiatric evaluation during which he claims he is a demon, and further claims that before their time is over, the psychiatrist will commit t...

You asked...we delivered!

Many have been asking if Fr. Dom could start recording his homilies and post them to the podcast. And the answer is 100% yes!

Fr. Dom gives fantastic homilies and I am glad he is doing this so we can start sharing them with the world.

I will be posting these as much as possible, most likely one day after the homily was recorded given my current recording and editing constraints so I do apologize for the delay.

But, you will not be disappointed. Enjoy!

From personal stories about his time as a cop encountering the devil to powerful messages to motivate men, this episode packs a punch, literally and figuratively.

For those who haven't heard, Dr. Kevin Vost passed away in early April of 2023. He was an amazing men who was passionate about fitness, health, and nutrition. Most importantly, he loved the Lord and the Catholic Church. It is for this reason we are re-publishing this episode with him as a smallest form of gratitude we can offer. Please be praying for the repose of his soul and his family during this time.

If you like fitness, Old Fashioneds, and eating food, this is the episode for you! Join Ja...

Do any of you go to a men's group? Does your parish even have a men's group? Or maybe you do go but they just flick on a video made by somebody else and that's it? The video might pump you up for 1/2 a day and then it fades and nothing in your life changes.

Now, don't get me wrong, I am not faulting the creators of these men's groups because there are some amazing ones out there. However, for the majority of men, this simply does not work. Think about it. If you are the lucky few who actually h...

Do you guys ever become afraid? Do you ever freeze? Fail to act when you know you should have? Or maybe you just are afraid of having that difficult conversation that you know you should have had 3 weeks ago. Whatever the case may be, we are afraid far too often. And that is this week’s episode.

Dan poses the question, "Is it ever okay to watch scary movies? As with every good answer, it depends. Does it bring you closer to God? Does it serve as mere entertainment? Or, does it drive you further...

Have you all tried to ask for a raise? Maybe you have played sports in the past and had a big competition on the horizon? Or maybe you were actually in the military on deployment. Whatever the case might be, you prepared for it, didn’t you? You studied your competition. What makes them tick? What are their strengths? What are their weaknesses? How can I come out on top?

You knew your enemy. Now, of course, your boss isn’t your enemy. Nor is the other team or competition you faced. The actual en...
