Fear. Everyone feels it.

Even my buddy Dom Raso, a Navy SEAL.

But here’s the thing about fear. If you try really hard to NOT feel afraid, you’ll get even more anxious. As Dom will tell you, what you gotta do is redirect your fear with a mindset of faith, rooted in God and His truth.

This week, Dom’s back on the show to explain four ways you can redirect your fear. And trust me, they work. He’s BEEN there and DONE that in over 350 combat missions.

If you put his advice into practice, you’ll be more courageous than you ever imagined.

Even the most faithful Catholics struggle with discernment.

Figuring out what God wants can really stress you out. But when you develop your discernment skills, you can relax. There’s no peace like knowing you’re in tune with God’s will.

That’s why it’s so cool to have Fr. Timothy Gallagher with us! He’s spent years deep-diving into Ignatian prayer and the Rules for Discernment. He’s also written some excellent books of discernment advice, which you’re going to hear from.

If you’ve ever felt like flinging your arms out and yelling up to the heavens “God, what do you WANT?!?” then listen to this!

Sometimes it can feel impossible to meet God in our daily lives.

Fitting real prayer in between our daily duties is difficult, and most of us don’t even know what it means to meditate on God’s presence. Fortunately, Fr. Timothy Gallagher is back with more incredible advice for meeting God in our own lives!

He’ll tell you about the awesome program for spirituality given to us by St. Ignatius of Loyola, which has formed Catholic heroes like St. Isaac Jogues, Mother Teresa and St. Francis de Sales. Better yet, he’ll give you an achievable plan for prayer so that you, too, can know what God is telling you.

A relationship with God is possible for all of us; listen to the show to learn how!

“In good times and in bad” (or some variant) is a vital part of the marriage vows every Catholic couple says on their wedding day.

But sometimes those “bad times” are actually much worse than we expect. Coldness, selfishness, infidelity and more can make many couples’ marriages go from a fairy tale to a nightmare, and healing the resulting wounds can feel impossible.

Fortunately, there is a way to find love, tenderness and forgiveness in your marriage. Our guests, Jackie and Wadi Barreto, work for Retrouvaille, a marriage healing organization that has rescued thousands of couples from divorce and marital strife.

You’ll hear about their experience in helping countless couples reconcile, and learn how to strengthen your own marriage BEFORE it encounters these kinds of struggles.

If you’ve ever gone through “bad times” in your marriage, you’ll definitely want to see this.
