St. Anthony of Padua - “The Hammer of Heretics”

Watch the live stream: https://youtube.com/live/gJziFfNAD1oIn this LIVE episode of the Catholic Men's Podcast we'll go over the Ten Commandments of Chivalry and how it applies to the chilling tale of "Sir Gawain and the Green Knight" which is told in the Arthurian Legends. I think the tale upholds a beautiful standard of conduct which values honor over life and is a fitting read for any Catholic gentleman who wants to learn how to be a true knight of Christ in these modern times.Here's a playlist about real medieval warriors of the Crusades: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL1a68IKIffqamCCC1AWajGqnHipE0zjP7

THE CONVERSION OF ST. BRUNO taken from the book, “Hell: If There Is One, What is It, and How to Avoid It” by Monsignor Louis-Gaston de Ségur in 1876."In the life of St. Bruno, founder of the Carthusians, there’s a story which has been studied very thoroughly by the very doctors of the Church, and which presents itself to the most formal criticism of all the historical characters of authenticity; an event that occurred in Paris in the middle of the day, in the presence of many thousands of witnesses, whose details have been collected by its contemporaries, and which has given rise to a great religious Order.A famous doctor from the University of Paris named Raymond Diocres had just died, leaving universal admiration among all his students. The year was 1082.One of the wisest doctors of that time, known throughout Europe for his science, his talent and his virtues, named Bruno, was then in Paris with four companions, and it became a duty to attend the funeral of the illustrious deceased.The body had been laid in the great hall of the Chancellery near the Church of Our Lady, and an immense crowd respectfully surrounded the bed, in which, as is the custom of that time, was exposed the deceased covered with a full face veil..."

THE EXORCISM OF NICOLA AUBREY - Taken from the book The Holy Sacrifice of the Mass by Fr. Michael Muller (Imprimatur: Archbishop McClosky, New York 1884). It is indeed a remarkable fact that, as the devil made use of Luther, an apostate monk, to abolish the Mass and deny the Real Presence; in like manner, God made use of His arch-enemy, the devil, to prove the Real Presence. He repeatedly forced him publicly to profess his firm belief in it, to confound the heretics for their disbelief, and acknowledge himself vanquished by Our Lord in the Blessed Sacrament. For this purpose, God allowed a certain Mme. Nicola Aubrey, an innocent person, to become possessed by Beelzebub and twenty-nine other evil spirits. The possession took place on the eighth of November, 1565, and lasted until the eighth of February, 1566...

The 1979 book tells a whimsical story about the moon sending a golden hare sculpture as a gift to the sun, with a rabbit named Jack Hare acting as the messenger. However, Jack loses the gift on his journey, and readers are challenged to find it themselves, in real life—prompting a national treasure hunt across Britain. The treasure was real: an 18-karat gold hare adorned with jewels, hidden somewhere in the countryside.

I've been under the weather recently and tonight I just started felling better, so I thought I'd tell you about a listener submitted story which I haven't been able to get out of my head. It's taken from a book called "The Finest Legends of the Rhine" by Wilhelm Ruland. I don't want to spoil the tale by needless explanation so I'll just jump right in to it.Watch the video: https://youtu.be/M5CBFbESOXk

They speak as if depression is an invention of modern (and therefore, we are to assume, false) thought, and that perhaps doesn’t even really exist. They speak as if one could free oneself from a state of depression by acts of the will.  What should we make of this? Let’s dig into this topic and see.  It’s not a sin to have a sense of humour and be cheerful...  https://www.wmreview.org/p/fun-aquinas-neri  It’s not a sin to be depressed...  https://www.wmreview.org/p/depression-aquinas-neri00:00 Intro00:10 Article's Sources01:05 Is Depression a Fault?02:50 St. Thomas Aquinas 05:05 Effects on the Body06:26 Remedies07:53 St. Philip Neri
