The Catholic Hack! with Joe McClane

This is a keynote talk I gave at the Guam Catholic Mens conference.When taunted by the devil in the Garden of Gethsemane, “why die for them?” Our Lord proclaimed, “shall I not drink the cup which my Father has given me?” Dyeing on the cross, our Lord witnessed to those present, and all those who would come after, for you … “Father for give them, for they know not what they do!” If He would endure so much for you, to witness for you before all,,, are you prepared to witness for him to the world?

This is a breakout talk I gave at the Guam Catholic Mens conference. In a world racked full of excuses, millions relativize the faith, building “loop holes” for themselves, falling drastically short of their calling.

This is a breakout talk I gave at the Guam Catholic Mens conference. Together we will go back to the beginning, back to the dawn of time, to enter the Garden, to walk with the Lord in the “cool of the day” as Preist, Prophet and King.

I was blessed to be invited to give the Provider talk on an Into The Wild Weekend with the Kings Men. In this talk I shared a bit of my Marine Corps days as well as how God saved me from an addiction to pornography. I tried to encourage the men to look past their fears and seek to be like Christ.

In this series of 6 lectures we attempted to examine the question, why did Jesus have to suffer and die just to redeem us from our sin? If Jesus is God, then why not just will our redemption? This first talk is the intro talk.

Our first stop in salvation history is the dawn of time, to see the height of creation, the covenant between God, man and creation in a wedding feast! We encounter the coward of Eden!

Turning back the hands of time, God resets creation itself bringing back the waters of the abyss... starting over with a new man on a new mountain with a new fall. God promises to give himself a the lamb to redeem the first-born asking us to step out in faith!

Falling into the shadows if the bondage to sin once again, the people need God to speak His word and seperate light from darkness. Being purified through the wildnerss the nation becomes a kingdom under the Priest King Messiah David!

The NEW Adam has come into his NEW Garden, only this time... he will not stand silent, like the first, yet... he will cry out with loud cries to labour for our salvation to bring forth the bread that nourishes mankind... Himself in the Eucharist!

Forgoing his flesh to save our souls, trusting his soul to the care of God, the NEW Adam cries out from the tree of life... I thirst! Thirsting for us? Accepting the Father's will and finishes the passover to bring us to the wedding feast of the lamb!
