On episode 12 of The Holy Joes Podcast, we explore the concept and reality of being a man of Virtue. We are joined on this episode by Samuel Baker, Founder of the Apostolate, Catholic Man UK & Ireland which aims to help men to lead virtuous lives. Check it out online.

Samuel talks about his upbringing in a big Irish community in Luton and also the negative impact of his early Catholic formation as he was given a false presentation of the Catholic faith impacted by Jansenism and a lack of male role models. This in many ways was a catalyst for Samuel to consider what it means to be a real man and some of his own inadequacies he had to work on to be a Catholic Man of Faith.

He helps us to reflect on the Cardinal/Theological virtues and even brings in a bit of philosophy with St Thomas Aquinas and Aristotle. He also presents us with a real challenge to be manly. Grab a cuppa, grab a snack, come and listen to some Catholic craic. St Joseph, Foster Father of Jesus, Pray for Us.
