  <description>Happy New Year! Taylor is back with some great guests to celebrate the New Year. Keith from Grassroot Catholic returns to the show to co-host this week. He &amp;amp; Taylor discuss their Christmas celebrations, including quite possibly the worst Mass experience Taylor has ever had! Later, they discuss piety, knowing we love God but lacking the desire to do anything about it &amp;amp; devotion. Keith tries to guide Taylor through some issues as an emergency spiritual director stand-in. Follow Keith @grassrootcatholic on Instagram.
Also this week, Fr. Peter Pomposello joins Taylor to teach us about military priests. Fr. Peter (also known as Fr. Uncle Sam) discusses how he became a priest for the diocese of the US military, how the military works with priests &amp;amp; more. It's a fun discussion with insight into an entire part of the Catholic world that Taylor knew almost nothing about.

  <description>Fr. Anthony is back to discuss the lost years of Jesus with Taylor. There is ONE verse that covers the majority of Jesus' life from when He is a teen until His public ministry. We talk about what this verse means for our own spiritual growth &amp;amp; some Father gives some practical tips.
They also discuss one of Taylor's leadership heroes, Zig Ziglar. He played a large role in Taylor's formation in college so they discuss some of his most famous quotes.
Then finally, the moment you've all been waiting for...Fr. Anthony does the hot ones challenge. While he eats progressively hotter hot sauces, Taylor asks him questions about fire in the Bible &amp;amp; gets his thoughts on some Catholic hot takes.

  <description>Fr. Anthony is back from a well-deserved family vacation and joins Taylor to share about the important of rejuvenation, especially for priests. He talks about how changing up the normal routine, spending time with family and simplifying life is good. 
Taylor shares about a recent Sunday gospel that he struggled with. Jesus says his yoke is easy and his burden light, but it often feels heavy. He shares a hilarious experience he had with the homily that day and Fr. Anthony shares his insight into how Jesus can lighten our burdens.
Finally, Taylor has two questions about when a priest is In Persona Christi &amp;amp; when he isn't particularly during the Mass. What if a priest says something crazy during a homily? Is the priest as Jesus eating Jesus' body in the Eucharist. New and strange questions that we enjoyed exploring the answers to. We hope you enjoy this episode :)

Taylor has known Fr. Will since his early seminary days and he is now the associate pastor at his parish. Fr. Will comes in studio to chat about the Mass &amp;amp; Pastoral Care. Particularly how to make changes to the Mass over time in a way where the people in the pews won't revolt. Taylor has some compliments and some challenges for the young priest on that front. Some lively conversation and hilarity ensues.
They close out the show with Taylor sharing about how tired he is of "slippery slope" arguments. He sees them all the time and thinks they're one of the dumbest ways to argue. He gets Fr. Will's thoughts on some common Catholic slippery slope arguments.

  <description>Taylor Schroll flies solo this week and shares two of his favorite reflections on this past weekend's Gospel: the Beatitudes.
The first is from the homily at his parish given by Fr. Brian Eilers contrasting the themes from Jesus' famous sermon on the mount with how the world tells us to live.
The second is from a song called "Confession" by the Poor Kings. The lead singer was Taylor's HS youth minister and its a beautiful modern reflection on these ancients truths.

  <description>Taylor shares some fun stories about being mistaken for an elderly woman and how he handled losing a contest in elementary school. He also chats with Fr. Anthony about forsaking sin. As Catholics, we know the importance of confessing our sins but a lot of us have gotten complacent in our call to forsake our sins.
We also introduce a new segment called "Plane Theology." Popes have been writing encyclicals for years after careful research and revisions. But in modern times, our leaders are often asked questions on the spot like in interviews or on planes. So Taylor asks Fr. Anthony a series of theology questions he's been wondering about recently with absolutely no prep for the good priest. The topics include Jerusalem, infant baptism and hiccups. Enjoy!

  <description>Fr. Anthony recently gave communion for 45 minutes straight at a Mass because he didn't have help. This drove Taylor crazy and makes him share a recent change to how he goes about life. He's tired of worrying about stepping on people's toes and he's just going to step up instead. (Not like in the movie Step Up though. He can't dance)
Then Fr. Anthony shares about two life changes he wants to make and Taylor isn't really on board with either: a consecration to Mary(which he has questions about) and a tattoo(which Taylor thinks is dumb for Fr. Anthony). It's quite a wild conversation.
Finally, Taylor asks Father Anthony small group questions from a recent retreat he led for High School students. Tune in to see how Fr. Anthony does!

  <itunes:subtitle>Taylor has a lot of off-the-wall questions for Fr. Anthony Sciarappa from married priests, to weird Catholic spelling choices to random thoughts on Heaven. It's quite a fun journey as Taylor tries to entrap Fr. Anthony with his questions. They also play a new game that is either the best thing or worse thing we have ever done.</itunes:subtitle>

  <description>Taylor has a lot of off-the-wall questions for Fr. Anthony Sciarappa. How do celibate priests feel about married priests? Why do Catholics have to be so weird sometimes(ex. misspell normal words)? And finally, Taylor tries to trap Fr. Anthony in a question about Heaven. Fun!
They also introduce a brand new game that you'll either love or hate called "Read my Lips." They take turns explaining basic Catholic terms to each other, but the twist is, the other person has their volume turned all the way down so it's all based on reading the lips of the other person. This game was hilarious to play. We're interested to hear if you love or hate it lol.
Thanks for listening! Y'all rock! :)

Next they bring back a fun game creatively called "fancy Catholic words." Fr. Anthony gives Taylor random Catholic words no one has ever heard and Taylor has to define them. Hilarity ensues AND you will learn random Catholic facts you can use to impress your two friends.
Finally, they have a conversation around the topic "Is faith a blind leap?" Is it? How do reason and faith correlate? We hope you enjoy this conversation. Have a great week y'all!

  <description>Taylor brings the heat this week with some hot takes on kids in Mass, Martyrs and Satanists. Fr. Anthony isn't just along for the ride but tries to guide him back to sanity.
Parents often feel unwelcome in Mass with their little kids. There are often glares and "shushes" from other parishioners. Because of this, there has been a public outcry for allowing and welcoming kids in Mass. BUT Taylor thinks the pendulum has squng too far! With such a focus on welcoming kids in Mass, there has been less of a push on parents parenting their kids during the Mass. He shares a horrendous story of this happening at a recent Mass and tries to bring the conversation back to the middle and some sanity.
Taylor's next take on martyrdom has Fr. Anthony very worried about him. Taylor wonders why Christians have to accept martydom in the case of someone making you deny your faith. Why not let them hear what they want to hear knowing you don't mean it? Why not just plan on going to Confession? How does culpability come in to play if you're forced to do something at gun point. He asks the questions &amp;amp; Fr. Anthony tries his best to answer.
Finally, after the two hot takes, Taylor plays it safe but saying how dumb he thinks satanism is. It is the belief system that makes the least amount of sense. Like seeing the losing side and picking them. Very odd.
We hope you enjoy this absolutely wild episode to celebrate 250 episodes and 150k downloads! Thanks y'all!!!

  <description>Jon "Bearded" Blevins cohosts with hot takes on Thanksgiving food! He's so passionate about it that he wanted everyone to know a few weeks early. 
He and Taylor also talk about Jon's recent trip to the Lion's game where he got to hang out on the field and chum it up with his heroes. Meanwhile, Taylor was teaching teens about Jesus and using Jon as an example. Womp womp.

    <![CDATA[<p>Jon &quot;Bearded&quot; Blevins cohosts with hot takes on Thanksgiving food! He&#39;s so passionate about it that he wanted everyone to know a few weeks early. </p>

<p>He and Taylor also talk about Jon&#39;s recent trip to the Lion&#39;s game where he got to hang out on the field and chum it up with his heroes. Meanwhile, Taylor was teaching teens about Jesus and using Jon as an example. Womp womp.</p>

<p>Fr. Jared Cooke returns as guest to brag about his trip to Disney and also revisit the topic of obedience...how important and how difficult it is for our spiritual growth.</p>

<p>All music used on the show is by Brandon “BeTheSymbol” Morel. Find his music at bethesymbol.com.</p>

  <description>Howdy! Back again with another episode this week about our trip to Memphis for the National Youth Workers Convention.
In the first segment, I talk about a pretty interesting/quirky Mass we attended in downtown. This includes a cowboy priest and a fresh take on the parable of the talents.
In the segment segment, I welcome Steve Pokorny back to the show to talk about his upcoming book "Redeemed Vision" about being set free from pornography once and for all and the importance of seeking true beauty.
In the final segment, producer Sam and I close out our sharing from the conference by talking about our favorite nuggets of wisdom we took home from the weekend like not being Jesus' lawyer and the priority of silence in the lives of a Christian.

  <description>In the first segment, I begin answering questions and topics posed by listeners of the show on social media. The first few questions are all about Church politics/bureaucracy and how we can respond to that. 
In the second segment, I am joined by my long-time friend Brother Sean Stilson of the Brothers of the Beloved Disciple. We talk about what the life of a brother/seminarian looks like, what the role of a priest is supposed to be and what we can learn from that truth as lay people.
In the final segment, I continue to discuss suggested listener topics like "I'm not getting anything out of Mass", how to get started in being able to defend your faith and of course the classic question of whether I wear boxers or briefs.
I hope you enjoy this episode! If you haven't done so already, please subscribe and rate the show and then share it with your compadres. Thanks!

    <![CDATA[<p>In the first segment, I begin answering questions and topics posed by listeners of the show on social media. The first few questions are all about Church politics/bureaucracy and how we can respond to that. </p>

<p>In the second segment, I am joined by my long-time friend Brother Sean Stilson of the Brothers of the Beloved Disciple. We talk about what the life of a brother/seminarian looks like, what the role of a priest is supposed to be and what we can learn from that truth as lay people.</p>

<p>In the final segment, I continue to discuss suggested listener topics like &quot;I&#39;m not getting anything out of Mass&quot;, how to get started in being able to defend your faith and of course the classic question of whether I wear boxers or briefs.</p>

<p>I hope you enjoy this episode! If you haven&#39;t done so already, please subscribe and rate the show and then share it with your compadres. Thanks!</p>

  <description>Lent has been a struggle for me this year. I share what has been going on and how a little book written by a monk over 1000 years ago is helping me through it.
I am also joined by "The Catholic Hack" Joe McClane. He shares his amazing life story about how God completely changed his life and what he learned about Fatherhood through it.
