Manly Catholic: Igniting Men to Light the World on Fire Ep 160 - Your Vocation is Not An Obstacle, But Your Path to Holiness
Catholic men — it’s time to wake up.
The battle is real, and it’s personal. Welcome to Part 3 of the Daily Grind with Go.d If you're not actively fighting for your soul, your wife’s, and your children’s, you're losing ground. This is not a game. Satan is not playing around, and the culture of comfort is numbing us into spiritual death.
This episode is a direct challenge to you. To stop sleepwalking through your vocation. To take spiritual warfare seriously. To stop blaming everyone else and start owning your mission as a man, husband, and father. I talk about the realities of hell, the lies of the world, and how most men are spiritually passive while pretending they’re doing enough. Spoiler: we're not.
I walk through my own moments of cowardice; not to beat myself up, but to show that if we don’t face the hard truth, we’ll never change. I also offer a clear battle plan: Confession, the Rosary, fasting, sacramentals, and brotherhood. You need a weapon in one hand and a rosary in the other.

🔥 3 Powerful Quotes from the Episode:
- “You are either advancing the Kingdom of God — or retreating in cowardice.”
- “We have too many baptized men who are spiritually castrated. They’ve handed over their authority without a fight.”
- “You’re not ‘too busy’ for prayer. You’re choosing something else over God — and that’s idolatry.”
One Key Takeaway to Apply Immediately:
Stop making excuses and get to Confession this week. If you’ve been in mortal sin or living lukewarm, you are vulnerable to Satan’s grip. This is your first step in reclaiming your authority and becoming the spiritual warrior God created you to be.
