Maybe YOU'RE The Guy...

Do you sometimes feel like you are in a spiritual wasteland? Maybe God wants you to do more than just ache. Maybe you should do more than just listen to what is going on around you. Maybe YOU are the guy that needs to ACT. YOU, unworthy, unqualified, underestimating the power of trying. In this episode we share: - How our hardships are sometimes invitations - The excuses we make. - The prophets are not that different from us. - Fishing #CatholicPodcast #JustaGuyinthePew #BatleWithin DOWNLOADS Get a copy of my new eBook, “12 Ways Guys Can Get Closer to Jesus”!

The Battle Within

As men, we fight. We fight for our families to be financially stable, for our children to do well in sports, and we fight to get that new car because ultimately we fight for the things that we think will make us happy. Yet, so often we are left unfulfilled or frustrated. In this episode, John and Victor cut right to the chase and discuss our common failure to choose the right battle. True victory and true peace come from diagnosing our interior challenges (and wounds) and picking up the fight within. In this episode John and Victor talk about: Our tendency to go, go, go. The reading of the "rich fool" (Matthew 16: 21-27) Jacques Philippe’s book: Interior Freedom Physical healing from interior healing! #CatholicPodcast #JustaGuyinthePew #BatleWithin DOWNLOADS Get a copy of my new eBook, “12 Ways Guys Can Get Closer to Jesus”!

Do We Really Believe?

For real… Do we believe in the power of the Holy Spirit the way the apostles did in Acts? Do we let our doubt prevent powerful acts of faith? Do we believe Jesus, who rose from the dead, can heal the broken? In this episode John shares about: - His experience of Healing at the “I Am Prayer Training” retreat - The necessity of TOTAL belief to be a Christian - The power of the Holy Spirit that has been given to us! - Stirring our hearts like chocolate milk #CatholicPodcast #JustaGuyinthePew #Believe DOWNLOADS Get a copy of my new eBook, “12 Ways Guys Can Get Closer to Jesus”!

The Trap Of Self-Reliance

Hey everybody!! We are living in times of countless self-help books, proud independence, and accomplishing as much as we can (as quickly as we can). The world is preaching productivity, but “self-reliance” comes with the FALSE PROMISE of control that ultimately leaves us weary and restless. In this episode listen to Victor and I talk about: - Letting go of the steering wheel - Productivity vs. Fruitfulness - Abiding in God in order to depend on God. - The Holy Spirit demanding hugs #CatholicPodcast #JustaGuyinthePew #SelfReliance DOWNLOADS Get a copy of my new eBook, “12 Ways Guys Can Get Closer to Jesus”!

The Pain of Inadequacy

In this episode, Victor and I ask “Why do we even try to be enough?” The enemy knows that men often struggle with feeling like they are not good enough fathers, husbands, or providers. It is a painful lie to believe you have to be “enough”. Take a load off and join us, your inadequate brothers, as we chat about it. In this episode you will hear about: * The sin of forgetting God’s love * The GREATNESS of your insufficiency * Desolation * Letting yourself be held by God… like a child.

The Secret Sauce to Loving Jesus

We are enslaved by our attachments to this world. But the world REJECTED Christ. How could we love both Jesus and the world if they oppose each other? The world and Jesus just don't mesh.

Suffering? Ah Man...

Contrary to the way most Saints make it seem, suffering is actually NOT that fun. Shocking right?! Rule #1 on this show: We cannot compare our sufferings.
