Forte Catholic Podcast Episode 242

Edmund Mitchell cohosts and tries to explain Taylor's strange dreams. They also play a Catholic version of mad libs and everyone's favorite "Freestyle Preaching."

Edmund Mitchell cohosts and tries to be Taylor's "Joseph" by interpreting his strange dreams. What is dreaming? Do they tell us something real? Can you sin in dreams? Almost none of these questions are answered, but they're attempts are entertaining.

The second segment, we used Taylor's 2nd grader's new Catholic MadLibs book to try to create comedy. It bombed, which some of you think is the best comedy. If not, we apologize for one of our strangest segments ever.

Finally, Edmund gets to try "Freestyle Preaching" for the first time. Each host gives the other 3 words they have to include in a 60 second sermon. Some of them turn out great and some of them are Edmund's attempts. Enjoy!

Taylor shares a terrible review of him and the show and says the person was actually right lol. He and Jon play Imitate, Intercess or Ignore and then talk about some Scriptures Taylor found in the bathroom lol.

The show kicks off with a hilarious terrible review of Taylor and the show. He tells John what was said about him, who came to his rescue and...how the mean reviewer was...right??? This leads to a discussion on reviewing things in general and how we can use it as a way to shed light into dark places.

Next, they play the new Imitate, Intercess or Ignore game where they each give each other three saints and have to choose what they will do with each. Hilarity and learning a bit about the saints at the same time...and maybe some who didn't actually exist...

Finally, Taylor shares an odd story about some Scripture verses he found in a restroom. It was...strange...to say the least. Enjoy!!!

Fr. Anthony quizzes Taylor on fancy Catholic words and it...was something. lol. One of the more fun games we've come up with in a while. Do you know the meaning of more of these words than a guy with a Theology degree? The answer is...probably...

Sam Blair of The Frassati Company joins Taylor for a conversation on grit, heartiness & resilience. Taylor thought those words were synonyms but the ex-Seal and current leadership development expert taught him otherwise.

Taylor & Jon kick off this week's episode with a conversation on how it's often hard to ask for and receive help, especially in the things we pride ourselves in. We look at Simon helping Jesus carry his cross and the Our Father for insight into how our spiritual lives seem to be harder to take care of these days.

Jon cohosts as he and Taylor tackle a few more hot button issues than normal including pro-life issues and tithing. Hopefully its a refreshing and light hearted take on some complicated and often avoided issues.

Jon "Bearded" Blevins cohosts a show that has hotter topics than usual. We tackle the pro-life issue and tithing for the first time in the history of the show.

In regards to the pro-life topic, Taylor has been frustrated with how the pro-life movement has argued things and finally heard a new way of having this discussion that he found helpful.

Tithing has always been an awkward topic, especially for someone who works in the non-profit world. But we figured we would finally tackle it by sharing our thoughts on how to best share our time, talents and money.

Taylor also led a retreat IN PERSON and had an epiphany about how things we often hear like "God loves you" starts to lose it's meaning over time and how we need to refocus on the basic truths of our faith.

The show starts off with a convo about how sometimes holy people have no idea what's going on. Taylor is fed up with cancel culture and is very disappointed in Fr. Anthony.

Taylor starts off the show by asking Fr. Anthony to recount his homily. This leads to a discussion of when holy people have absolutely no idea what's going on but can still do good things in the world whilst clueless.

Taylor is fed up with cancel culture on both ends of the spectrum. We can't seem to figure it out as a unit. We wanna cancel some forever and anoint some we canceled recently. It's all very confusing. This conundrum leads to a fine discussion

The show wraps with the age old problem of trying to do something good and having failures/growing pains along the way. Taylor tells Fr. Anthony why he's not mad at him...but very disappointed.
