Father's Day Monday on The Catholic Morning Show: Guest host Sam Halligan (filling in for Bo Bonner) leads a morning devoted to evangelization, masculinity, and Catholic fatherhood across three conversations.
FOCUS & the Art of Friendship — John Michael Lucido: The Director of Recruitment and Retention for the Fellowship of Catholic University Students explains how FOCUS forms missionary disciples on roughly 220 campuses and a growing number of parishes, why evangelization is simply "the art of friendship," and how his Call Him Abba newsletter calls young men toward fatherhood and purpose.
A Man on Purpose — Pete Burak: The vice president of Renewal Ministries and author confronts the modern crisis of masculinity, charting a "radical center" between emasculated manhood and toxic alpha-male culture, and shares the intentional, Spirit-filled fatherhood at the heart of his new book.
