The Gospel according to Matthew (McFadden) and engaging men in Spiritual disciplines - a podcast by The Holy Joes: Joe McKeown & special guest Holy Joes

In this episode, the Holy Joes speak of the joys of the great weather, paddling pools and water shortages. Dermot shares how he sent his wife and kids on a holiday to give himself a break.
The men chat about the challenges of spiritual disciplines of initiatives such as EXODUS90 and also consider the simple spiritual disciplines and traditions within Irish Christianity. Bishop Alan last week challenged men to read the Word of God more, how do we as Catholic Men engage more with the living Word of God in the Bible

Pope Francis' call on World Communications Day to share your story, as in our personal stories, we encounter Christ and we can help others to encounter him by sharing our faith. Matthew McFadden shares his personal story of being raised by a saintly woman, his mother Mary, who was a single parent who did everything to ensure Matthew had a good start in life and strong foundations by witnessing her prayerful expression of her Catholic faith. He also shares his inspirational story of losing 13 stone in just over a year with hard work, dieting and nutrition, exercise and prayer.

We have new listeners from Russia, Iran, USA, Philipines, Indonesia and Fermoy in County Cork. Please keep sharing this Podcast with friends and family and particular Catholic Men, those close to the Church and those on the fringes and disengaged.
