The Lord asks that we step out in faith to do His will.....daily! It's not enough to be  a passive fan you MUST be a follower to change the world. Every situation in life can be an opportunity to witness to Christ. From the office to a three thousand mile bike ride you have opportunities to evangelize.

They say you judge a tree by its fruit. Man is the tree and the fruit are the virtues we manifest in our lives. We live a full life when we incorporate those virtues into our daily lives.

Wasting time can be a good thing if you're "wasting" it on the Lord. People think it’s not productive to pray but it’s the most productive part of your day. If you’re not getting up in time to spend an hour with the Lord then you've wasted something.....an entire day! Join Gary Zimak and Bear as they talk about “wasting time” with the Lord. This is hard for men but we need him to strengthen us and that is not wasted time at all!

On vacation, in the office, at the gas station, at restaurants, down the street with your neighbor, on a three thousand mile bike ride......every moment that God gives you is an opportunity to be a witness to Christ. Ask yourself, would Jesus ignore this situation? You are the body of Christ. You have to have some courage to get out of the boat and walk on water. THAT is the great adventure.

The real fake news today are the anti-Catholic myths out there. Steve Weidenkopf is the author of The Real Story of the Catholic Church. Steve and Bear Woznick discuss and provide tools on how to refute and debunk the myths so the real story of the Church can shine through.

It’s unfortunate that Catholic social teaching is presented as if you need to be an intellectual to grasp it’s meaning. This is simply not true. In its simplest form every human person deserves full legal protection from violence. One sign of this is helping your neighbor when they are suffering. Listen this week as Jason Jones returns and he and Bear discuss the fundamentals of Catholic social justice.
