Get ready for an incredible journey of faith, resilience, and brotherhood as we welcome Jason to discuss the Martyr's Walk, an extreme spiritual and physical challenge designed to push participants to their limits. Hear how Jason went from a life of drug abuse, trauma, and alcohol to a life-transforming experience with the traditional Latin Mass, ultimately leading to the creation of the Martyr's Walk event.

Jason shares how he found brotherhood through the Knights of Columbus and founded the Catholic Men's Conference of the Carolinas. Moreover, we discuss the challenges of navigating the spiritual component of the Martyr's Walk retreat with both traditional and non-traditional Catholics.

Finally, Jason shares valuable insights on how to prepare for life's challenges in difficult times. The Martyr's Walk retreat combines elements of a special forces boot camp with an Ignatian retreat, preparing participants for the small daily white martyrdoms and potential blood martyrdoms they may face. Don't miss out on this transformative conversation and learn more about this unique and life-changing event.

Avoiding Babylon was started during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic. During these difficult and dark days, when most of us were isolated from family, friends, our parishes, and even the Sacraments themselves, this channel was started as a statement of standing against the tyrannical mandates that many of us were living under. Since those early days, this channel has morphed into an amazing community of friends…no…more than friends…Christian brothers and sisters…who have grown in joy and charity.

Avoiding Babylon does not criticize the hierarchy or institutional Church, especially Pope Francis. We recognize there is an unprecedented crisis in the Church, but we feel that there are other shows that address these issues that are more qualified than us. Instead, we try to remind ourselves and those who enjoy the channel that being Catholic is a joyful and exciting experience. We seek true Catholic fraternity and eutrapelia with other Catholics who, like us, are doing their best to live out their vocation with the help of God’s Grace. Above all, we try to bring humor and joy to the craziness of this fallen world, for as Hillaire Belloc has famously said:

“Wherever the Catholic sun doth shine,
There’s always laughter and good red wine.
At least I’ve always found it so.
Benedicamus Domino!”
