Kevin Conolly is the NSW State MP for Riverstone, and a devout Catholic. In his time in state politics, Kevin has been a champion for pro-life and pro-family causes. In this episode Kevin encourages men to get involved in the political process through party politics. 

Men, the time for sitting back and complaining about the social and economic policies that contradict our faith is over. It is time to step up, take initiative, and claim our countries for Christ. Kevin will show you how to begin that journey.

This week Catholic Weekly Editor Peter Rosengren joins us to tell his story about how he got involved in the Catholic mediasphere. Peter provides insights into the inner world of secular and Catholic journalism and explains the ideological battle that has been going on for decades. The Church has much ground to take on this front, and we have many failures to atone for. Peter explains why a Catholic publication should ideally be independent of a diocese, and also challenges us to virtue and holiness as men - qualities that are crucial to a successful Catholic Media publication.

In this episode we interview MenAlive Founder, Robert Falzon. Starting a men's ministry that has changed lives and parishes around Australia is not as hard as it seems - it begins with us simply asking the question: what can I do for the men in my parish? Robert also speaks wisdom to the question of how to reach men who are no longer interested in the Catholic Church.
