The Grammy Awards, Satanism And The Catholic Teacher
It seems that the progressive modern entertainment industry has lost any pretence of subtlety. Their recent Bacchanalian orgy of self-referential hedonism does, however, provide some important points for consideration for the orthodox Catholic teacher. In today's episode I help you understand the deeper roots that drive culture in the 21st century and how you can help each young person discover a more compelling and attractive story for their lives.

The Heresy of Saving Ourselves
In today's episode I share a great insight from a recent visit to the sacrament of confession. As Catholic teachers we need to constantly remember that it is Jesus who brings about healing and salvation and that it is not something we do in our own strength. As teachers we also have a powerful opportunity to share this insight with our students on a daily basis.

Gavin Ashenden And The Storms of History
In today's episode I explore a fine quote from Queen Elizabeth II's former chaplain Gavin Ashenden. It's a great reminder that any utopian vision that is presented to young people is bound to end in disillusion and bitterness. As Catholic teachers we are able to offer a much broader and ultimately truthful view of reality.

How To Share Your Faith At School
Today I respond to a great listener question where they ask:
One thing that I have been trying to find the balance on, is sharing the faith with students and non-Christian colleagues.
Most colleagues and students know I am a Christian/Catholic, yet is it enough for them to just know I am a Christian? Should I try to share the faith and witness and yet how should I? How much is too much? Will I just start sounding cheesy? How do you authentically share your faith with colleagues and students in the small things without it sounding forced?
Listen in as I share a few key ideas on how we can share the faith on a regular basis.

Your Biggest Enemy In A Catholic School.
In the busyness and challenge of each day it's understandable that we can come to see difficult students or colleagues as a source of our suffering or unhappiness.
However, what if, all this time, we may have been fighting the wrong enemy?
In this episode I want to suggest that your challenging students or colleagues are not the ones we need to overcome. There is a much greater enemy you need to be aware of.

The Pinnacle of Creation
So much of the ideological insanity that pervades the modern world is rooted in a rejection of the 'givenness' of nature as a gift of God and a rejection of the truth about the value and dignity and destiny of every human person. In today's episode we explore a beautiful quote that reminds us that every human person holds a place in the hierarchy of creation that cannot be understated. The truth about the human person is the central issue of our moment in history.

Why We Need Your Wisdom As a Catholic Teacher
Catholic education is such a precious and necessary human and divine undertaking. It is not simply a functional or utilitarian process where we funnel kids into the economic system. In today's message we have a profound reminder from Pope Benedict XVI about how what you do each day is so much more than a job. One of the most important things you do is to impart wisdom and help young people come to understand the value and dignity of the human person and truth about reality itself.

The Power Of Your Daily Witness
Do you ever grow weary of being told to 'trust the experts' and place all your faith in institutions and authority? In recent years it seems that so much of what we once gave our allegiance to has come under extraordinary forms of pressure and suspicion. More than ever, rather than placing faith in power, titles and roles we long to believe that people actually walk their talk and live out what they profess. In today's episode we hear a famous quote from Pope Paul VI who reminds us that as Catholic educators it is our witness that matters and that it is this witness that can have the most crucial impact upon our students.

The Power of Letting Students Talk To You
We have no shortage of technology or programs these days that are supposed to be the next big thing in driving student outcomes. But what about the simple things that might just make all the difference in the life of a student when they really need it? It can be easy to get lost in fancy pedagogy but it's so important to retain a deeply human sense of the need to just 'be with' our students and let them talk to us. In this episode we hear a simple quote from the Church documents that allow us to rediscover what really matters in the precious vocation of Catholic education.

Helping Your Students Connect To Their Own Hearts
The crazy intensity of modern life can make it hard for any of us to find moments of deep quiet and stillness in our lives. For our students it can be even harder. The emergence of social media and screens over the last few decades have no historical precedent and it's like we are living through some vast experiment. As Catholic teachers how can we help our students rediscover their own hearts and deepen in their relationship with God. In this episode I share a powerful quote from St. John Paul II who reminds us that every Catholic educator can help their students connect with their own inner longings.

On Ambition And Being Overlooked
What do we do when we feel overlooked for promotion in a Catholic school? What do we do when we feel that someone less qualified is now doing the role we felt God could really use in? How does a Catholic teacher address the issue of ambition and wanting to build a career? These are important questions that can lead to resentment and bitterness or trust and a growth into a deeper dependence upon God. In this episode I respond to a viewer question about their own challenging experience.
