  • The Family Room - A Man on Purpose
    Guest: Peter Burak, vice president of Renewal Ministries, author, and speaker

    In an age where anything goes, Pete Burak has seen the devastation that befalls young men who didn’t grow up with strong role models. They search for clarity and courage after years of being bombarded with messages stressing masculinity is toxic and professing the need to cultivate a softer side.  Their innate desire to protect must be subdued rather than cultivated through virtue. 

    Realizing the incredible blessing he had from his own father’s wise and loving counsel, Pete set out to help other young dads navigate the treacherous waters of fatherhood. In his book, “A Man on Purpose: 10 Rules of Life from a Faithful Father,” Pete unpacks ten timeless principles that shaped him as a man, husband, and father. Knowing that a father’s presence is key to raising kids who are emotionally and physically strong, Pete shares stories from his own childhood which illustrate the virtues his father instilled in him. 

    He strives to reinvigorate men with their God-given desire to protect their families and model virtuous, authentic masculinity. Learn the meaning behind sayings like “Be a good man; not a nice guy” and “Will you forgive me?” as you uncover God’s loving definitions for masculinity and fatherhood. 

    Guest biography: Pete Burak grew up in the Ann Arbor area of Michigan, where his parents raised their family within a strong Catholic community. He currently lives in Michigan with his wife, Cait, and their five children. Pete is a graduate of Franciscan University of Steubenville and has a master’s degree in theology from Sacred Heart Major Seminary in Detroit, Michigan. Currently, he is the vice president of Renewal Ministries, which is dedicated to Catholic renewal and evangelization around the world, and is the co-director of Pine Hills Boys’ Camp in Jackson, Michigan. Pete is a frequent speaker throughout the United States and abroad and gives talks on discipleship and evangelization, including at SEEK, the Steubenville Power and Purpose Conference, the Legatus National Summit, and numerous men’s and youth conferences.

    Prayer of St. Augustine

    Late have I loved you, O Beauty ever ancient, ever new, late have I loved you! You were within me, but I was outside, and it was there that I searched for you. In my unloveliness I plunged into the lovely things which you created. You were with me, but I was not with you. Created things kept me from you; yet if they had not been in you they would have not been at all. You called, you shouted, and you broke through my deafness. You flashed, you shone, and you dispelled my blindness. You breathed your fragrance on me; I drew in breath and now I pant for you. I have tasted you, now I hunger and thirst for more. You touched me, and I burned for your peace.

  • The Catechism in a Year (with Fr. Mike Schmitz) - Day 168: The Celebration of Baptism (2026)

    We continue our examination of the Sacrament of Baptism, specifically how we celebrate the sacrament and the different elements that must always be present in Baptism. Fr. Mike emphasizes that while infant Baptism has become the “form in which this sacrament is usually celebrated,” post-baptismal formation and instruction is necessary in order for the full flowering of the graces received in the Sacrament of Baptism. Today’s readings are Catechism paragraphs 1229-1233.

    This episode has been found to be in conformity with the Catechism by the Institute on the Catechism, under the Subcommittee on the Catechism, USCCB.
