The Bear Woznick Adventure

Atheism is gaining popularity every day. Although you and I know the atheistic worldview is ultimately untenable, we often feel ill-equipped to counter atheist arguments. That’s why I’m so excited to be joined by best-selling author Dr. Peter Kreeft! In this episode, Peter and I tackle the difficult task of responding to militant atheist objections to the existence of God and the truth of the Catholic Faith. You’ll definitely want to check this out!

Do you struggle with an Elijah Complex… “Woe is me. I’m the only one left who is faithful to the Lord.” You’re not alone! God has always worked His wonders through a small remnant who remained faithful to Him. Your task is simply to seek out that small remnant in your life. In this episode, I’m joined by the great CPA and man of God, Mike Chadwick. Mike is an incredible witness to manly spirituality. As a founder of Men of Christ — the largest Catholic men’s conference in North America — Mike reveals the secrets of how the Lord grew the “small remnant” in his life into an army of faithful men over 3,000 strong! Buckle up because things get gritty! Mike shares his struggle to face his own mortality when confronted with a life-threatening illness. He talks about the impact of having faithful Catholic men in his life. And he shares the freedom he experienced when he was finally released from the grip of “careerism” holding so many men today.

The Church at large fell into great error…. Many in the hierarchy were morally compromised. Many were too cowardly to stand up for the Truth. Many were just flat-out corrupt. Political intrigue abounded within the ranks of the hierarchy…. Good bishops were marginalized, sidelined and even forced into hiding. Sound Catholic doctrine seemed to be abandoned wholesale for a new “revolution” in doctrine. The entire Church seemed on the verge of collapsing. If you think I’m talking about the Church of today, think again! This was the state of the Church back in the 3rd Century  during the Arian crisis! To quote a famous sci-fi show, “This has all happened before. And it will all happen again.” If history is repeating itself, we need to be prepared for the fight to come. In today’s episode of The Bear Woznick Adventure, Fr. Mark Goring and I talk about today’s crisis in the Church and what you and I should be doing to fight back against the worldly errors, corruption and dark forces that have crept into the C

Every day you’re battling the biggest bully out there — the Devil and his legions. If you’re going to emerge victorious from this battle, you need the best spiritual armor, weaponry and battle plan available. You also need to know the tactics, maneuvers and weapons of your enemy. Join Bear and Jessie Romero as they talk about the harsh reality of spiritual combat, the subtle tactics the Devil uses to wear us down and defeat us, and the weapon that’s the spiritual equivalent to dropping an atomic bomb on the Devil — HINT: If you just thought “the Rosary,” you’re wrong!

Abuse is a tough thing. Many experience it, yet few talk about it. Father wounds are a deficiency of love. Bob Kroll shares his story of how he learned from his own experience and what you can do to be a loving father.

It's not easy...following the Lord, but sometimes we just have to do it. There comes a time that each of us must seek the truth, step out in faith, and hold on for the ride.

Augustine said the truth is like a lion and it will defend itself. This easiest thing we need to do is explain our faith. There is nothing to argue about because it IS the truth. David Dawson took the brave leap to start a Catholic radio station so he could have a vehicle to proclaim the truth. Hear about hi journey on this week’s show.
