Stand Tall In The Sight Of The Father

CATHOLIC LIFE COACH FOR MEN PODCAST

God should come first, but what does that really mean?

I’m Michael Jaquith. A modern Catholic guy, a podcaster, and a Life Coach. This podcast is dedicated to those guys who really want to grow and become the man God created them to be.

We’ll talk about both practical strategies for managing life, better ways to view and engage the world, and how to take one step closer to standing tall in the sight of the Father.

 

104 – Pure Desire with Nick Stumbo

In the last episode, you heard Bob talk about how Pure Desire helped him break free from pornography. In this episode, we go to the source; Nick describes his work at Pure Desire.

Like so many other guys out there (including me!), he was exposed to pornography at a young age, and became hopelessly addicted…

…but didn’t want to see it that way.

It was just a problem that came up in some “new” way every so often, that he was for sure going to beat, that never really went away.

Even when a perfect opportunity was handed to him to try something new, he knew that it would be a great opportunity for those other guys who were actually addicted!

Thankfully his wife nudged his ribs and persuaded him to do it. His life was transformed forever. Yours can be too!

Join me in this episode as Nick and I discuss his story, and how Pure Desire finally cracked open his addiction enough to allow the healing love of Jesus to restore him. He shares his struggles starting from childhood and into marriage; escape seemed impossible! Yet, with a new and deeper approach, he found his freedom.

103 – Escape from Pornography with Bob Hood

For over 50 years Bob was hopelessly addicted to pornography. Although he consistently tried to hide it, he was eventually caught at work and lost his job. His wife left him for 9 months when he continued to fall again and again.

Bob eventually lost hope that there was anything he could ever do to escape from this addiction. He even believed that God Himself couldn’t set him free.

Until the day he finally decided to step out of the “boat” of his self reliance, and finally surrender to God.

I invite you to join Bob and I in this episode as Bob shares his incredible story of how God stepped into his hopeless addiction to pornography, and finally set him free forever. This is an incredibly emotional journey through hopelessness and pain.

102 – Eulogy Virtues vs Resume Virtues

Ever notice how every guy is super eager to talk about what he does for work – but not to go that one step deeper and share how his virtues bring success in that job?

The irony is that it’s actually way more helpful (and important) to share why we are successful with our brothers than what it is we’re good at.

Underneath that success there are always virtues. Many businessmen think of virtues like perseverance, diligence, attentiveness, or energy. My claim though is that actually those aren’t the real ones.

Join me in this episode as I discuss how the “eulogy” virtues of humility, loyalty joy, and integrity are actually the important virtues for your business success right now!

He has helped me question my own assumptions which has allowed me to get clear and focused on my goals and objectives to and be able to make changes in my circumstances and life.”
