Why is it that the guy at the football stadium will take his shirt off, paint his chest, scream like a lunatic for four hours… but we Catholics can barely stay awake for a 55-minute Mass where JESUS CHRIST is literally present?

Yeah. I’m calling us out. And I’m calling myself out. 

Because for years I treated Catholicism like a spiritual DMV appointment—get in, get my hour, get out.

In this video, I dive into:
 🏈 Why sports fans have more zeal than most Catholics
 📚 How decades of awful catechesis left many of us lukewarm
 😬 Why so many of us grew up in Catholic homes that barely acted Catholic
 🔥 Why knowing the faith is the ONLY way to fall in love with it
 😑 How modern Catholic leadership often seems embarrassed to be… Catholic
 💥 And why maybe God is calling ordinary “crappy Catholics” like us to actually become the heroes we wish we had

If you’ve ever wondered why being Catholic sometimes feels like a chore… or why you’re not “on fire” the way the saints were… this one’s for you.

No guilt trips. No theologian-speak.
 Just a fellow Crappy Catholic trying to figure out how not to be so… crappy.
