Spiritual Warfare, Masculinity, and the Warrior Christ with Dr. Dan Schneider

Merry Christmas! From all of us here at The Manly Catholic, we wish you and your family a blessed Christmas celebrating the birth of Christ.
In another of our most popular episodes of 2024 we bring you one that was released early in the year with Dr. Dan Schneider.
In this powerful continuation of our first interview with Dr. Schneider, we dive deeper into what it means to be a man in today’s chaotic world and how Christ calls men to the frontlines of spiritual warfare. Dan unpacks the scriptural and theological truths about Jesus as a warrior and challenges men to embrace their God-given roles as protectors, providers, and spiritual leaders. From understanding the tria munera to practicing Lectio Divina, this episode equips Catholic men to fight for their families and souls with clarity, discipline, and faith.
🔥 5 Key Takeaways:
1. The Warrior Christ - Jesus isn't just meek and mild-He's the ultimate warrior who calls us to lead and fight for our families and faith.
2. The Tria Munera - Discover your role as a teacher, healer, and spiritual leader in your home.
3. Combatting Sin - Learn why sin is not just personal but affects your entire family and how to reclaim spiritual authority.
4. Discipline and Order - As Dan says, “The enemy responds to the imposition of order.” Small acts of discipline, like daily prayer, fortify you for battle.
5. Prayer as a Weapon - Embrace spiritual practices like Lectio Divina, fasting, and sacrificial love as tools for victory over evil.
👊 Step Up, Men
If you’re ready to embrace your role as a spiritual warrior and protect what God has entrusted to you, this episode is your battle call. Equip yourself with Dan Schneider's field-tested insights from The Liber Cristo Method: A Field Manual for Spiritual Combat
