All I Want for Christmas
What do you want for Christmas? During this time of year, there is a lot of emphasis on what we want. However, not many people know what it is in life that will truly make us happy and what we really need. Jeff shares that the answer to what we want and need can be found in God.

Jesus is the true gift that we receive at Christmas.

Supporting Small Catholic Businesses with David Kruse
These days, the personal investment with small businesses is often overlooked for expedited shipping and brand status. In today’s episode, we’re invited to an interview with Jeff and OréMoose Founder & CEO David Kruse to find out how to support smaller apostolates who work, not just to make a living, but who strive to bless the body of Christ.
Snippet from the Show
During the times of Jesus, a father taught his son and his son took up his father's trade. The work that small businesses do means something: it's rooted in passion and life, and it evolves in love.

Overcoming Envy in the Holidays
Can we be joyful and envious at the same time? The holiday season hopes to bring joy, but we can also find ourselves pained with envy, not wanting others to be blessed in the ways God has blessed them. In this week’s episode, Jeff gives us several ways to overcome envy and celebrate the freedom that Christ came for us to have.
Snippet from the Show
Replace the envious thoughts in your head by praying for that person in your head.

Elections & The Power of the Church
Is it possible that we give too much credence to politics and our political leaders? In today’s episode, Jeff helps us as Catholic Christians to navigate through the election outcomes. We might be willing to engage in a political debate with our cousin or with our sister or someone at work. But how many Catholics are willing to bring up the Good News of the Gospel and share it with their opponent?
Snippet from the Show
We do not hand off our responsibility to be the agent of change to the politicians in our country. If the Gospel is the thing that changes hearts and we will not share that, guess what? Game over.

The List of Things to Forgive
“Lord, how often shall my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? As many as seven times?” We don't need to bring unforgiveness into the holiday season. In today's episode Jeff draws attention to the areas of life where forgiveness may be necessary, and encourages us to allow the forgiveness of God to begin healing these wounds.
Snippet from the Show
Once we have begun healing through forgiving, releasing, and confessing, we must stay on top of it: Don't nurse it, don't curse it, and don't rehearse it.

The Four Must Reads of St. John Paul II

Snippet from the Show
My prayer is that everyone of my friends with me here today, in one year from now, will have four worn out, written in, meditated upon, and actuated upon writings of St. John Paul II.

Weapons of Warfare (Part 2)
Do you ever feel alone in your battles? In this episode, Jeff encourages us and reminds us that we’re not alone when we have the Word, those around us, and the armor God has given us! In this second part of this mini-series we learn about the final pieces of our God-issued battle attire: the shoes of peace, the shield of faith, the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit.
Snippet from the Show
The time to learn about the armor is not in the middle of the battle, but before the battle has begun.
