Taylor & Liv discuss battling Main Character Energy in our spiritual lives and relationships. They also have some alliterative suggestions for finding a way out of dryness in prayer.
Taylor & Fr. Anthony discuss fatherhood in preparation for Father's Day & Taylor shares one of his weirdest stories as a dad. They also discuss the morality of video games & talk about the book "Get Your Life Back" by John Eldredge.
We tried to kick off the show with a beautiful conversation about loving our neighbor but Jon wanted to talk about straws for a while. Taylor talks about Jon's mom(and isn't offensive...wow) and how we can't love a God we can't see if we don't love the people we can. The guys have a conversation about objective and subjective truth in Catholicism and how people often get them confused in both directions. Finally, Taylor shares how big of a failure his is with the help of the trusty dog Airbud.
Bearded Blevins and Taylor discuss a few things getting back to normal like sports, restaurants and (some) schools. Jon gets to judge three new metaphors about confession that Taylor came up with & the guys share stories of intense emotion ranging from embarrassment to rage to fear.
Fr. Anthony and Taylor talk video games and an update on Taylor’s spiritual and physical health(including an impromptu live weighing). Taylor kinda goes off the rails at some point and it’s fun to hear Fr. Anthony try to reign him in. Comedian Aaron Weber rejoins the show to bring us some deep, hearty laughter :)
Jon Blevins cohosts and celebrates his one year anniversary of being on the show! Taylor shares why he’s been crying while listening to podcasts in the woods and Jon shares about the recent conference on engaging youth he attended hosted by the USCCB. Our guest this week is fellow Catholic gamer/YouTuber Brian Montfort to talk about the pitfalls of video games, how to avoid them and why we still play.
