I was molested by a priest in the first grade. Listening to every single episode you have made has brought me closer to God and I have a true appreciation for priests and all that you do. This has helped me realize that transgression was on that specific priest and not on the entire priesthood. I am currently 30 years old and I have only been able to talk about it in the last 3 months. I literally told my parents 3 months ago. Thank you for all that you do and for helping me appreciate and realize the Father figure priests really are.
I’m so sorry a wicked priest molested you so young! I sure hope that doesn’t deter you from coming home into the one true church of our lord God love you sister
@@versatilelord8893 hey, thanks. It affected my want to consistently go to church and I have PTSD from it but other than that the actual molestation was something I'd didn't remember until I was a teenager. Your brain tries to protect you in any way possible. I still absolutely love this show and I think the majority of priests are good people.
@@dancing0nthe3dge So sorry this wicked priest did this to you. You are so right though; by far the majority of priests are good men. Please do not give up our Catholic Faith. Sending you a big hug - love from Scotland, UK 🏴
@@martinkent333, sadly, there are some priests who don't follow the Law of God. However, there are many Good Priests, who try their best to follow God's Plan in life and death.
@@jimselimos4863 Jim, the Roman Catholic Church's Vatican Bank washes Mafia money. Which is a Satanic institution. Two hundred thousand Roman Catholic children were raped and this was covered up by the Roman Catholic Church. People think this is really disgusting, but Roman catholic Church members without a conscience or a soul, find it excusable. The Mafia makes their income from murder, prostitution and drugs. A conscience would help you Jim. It would help you associate with holy people, not evil ones. I'm not saying mass rape of two hundred thousand children is wrong, but a coverup too? And treasurer to Satan? Wow.
@@martinkent333 i believe in God, if you do not that is your decision, please, try to find Faith yourself. Stop trying to take us away from the Truth of Faith, closer to your own personal Hell.
"I'm all for calling people out, but if you are not praying for these people then you are sowing discord" That's actually a very very important statement... NICELY SAID RYAN D.
But we do have to pray to stop the predators & protect the victims. Yes it will be stressful to the predators when they are caught. Yes they will get the suffering they deserve. Some of the damage they have done to children will destroy their lives. They become addicts, alcoholics, they become self destructive, some even commit suicide. Their lives can be ruined. So what I pray for is against the predators. Justice needs to be done, they need to be stopped. Justice, the stoppage of these crimes is first & foremost. Then after they're stopped, pray for the souls of the predators, that they repent & not go to Hell. Have you ever seen a repentant predator Priest give his confession & testimony in public? I have not. All you have is Priests denying, denying, denying & other Priests defending, defending, defending. Now even these guys say it's only 1%. Sorry, maybe 1% got convicted, but it's been much more than that. And if it was only 1%, they could have fired that 1% & cleaned up the entire Church.
My Brother was a Catholic Bishop with the BEST sense of humour and giggles.. He passed in 2018 and I sooo miss him.. and THEN I found this UTube show... Oh Gosh... I am so happy for the sense of Priestly humour, laughter, and yet deep discussions with a twist of Love, Laughter and Open Hearts is A Therapy Session well needed in my life... Thank You for Sharing your lives with us..❤😂
they are doing everything they know how to replace the homosexuals with straight masculine men. I don't know how they've done it but many these type men are becoming priests. The CC should allow Priests to marry. And ordain women. Their problems would be minimized.
@@lois2997 Did I say that? No I did not. Many fathers are abusers. However, the men who become Priests, if they were permitted dating & marriage, there would be less homosexuals & homo-pedophiles. Don't you think so?
You three are just refreshing! I wish more men & women could just sit and have open conversations about God. I love the humor you bring - I think God loves humor, look at His creations. Keep up the great work! The Holy Spirit is a movin' amongst you guys!!
I know this podcast is two years old, first time watching. Love it! I did subscribe as well. I have not been a practicing Catholic in years ( long story) I’m ready to go back, Gods been working on me, my blessings are many. Loved the show 🙏🏻
Glad I found this channel. It's wonderful to hear the words of a down to earth and accessible priest, I'm very grateful for the insight and the humour.
I have clicked the bell all the way from South Africa, I think your show is fabulous. Fr Rich you are an amazing priest and your parish is blessed to have you
Priests are so thinly stretched now, and we do need to pray for them. So many of our parishes have only one. The parish we belong to has two English Masses on Sundsy, plus a Spanish one in the afternoon followed by a Latin one ( the pastor before him celebrated a Latin one )and our pastor now learned the Latin one for the parishioners). He’s not young either and I really impressed with his attitude. I’m a senior who grew up with 3 priests in a parish and six Masses on Sunday. Can’t imagine that now,
It's their fault for their crimes & misbehavior. But at base, it is the leadership of the CC that won't permit marriage for Priests & won't ordain women.
This made me laugh a lot! Thank you, Ryans and Father Rich. Feel like I'm just hanging out with you guys all the time and learning so much! God bless you
You guys are great and a lot of fun and handle some serious stuff with these videos. Now granted I can see sometimes maybe more serious (but very rare) I think you do a great job and service here - when you sing you pray twice (St Augustine) when you laugh you pray 3 times (Strittmater) LOL
I understand where people are coming from when they say what a waste. If a good man that also may happen to be handsome becomes a priest. But they maybe don’t understand what your priesthood is exactly. Our parish is lucky to have an amazing priest that fathers us all and I’ve been lucky enough to be able to become goods friends with him 😊 I thought this episode might get a bit heavy but you guys are amazing at keeping the fun in any convo 😂😂 Thanks for this episode God bless!
You guys are so reverent young Catholics it soooooo funny love it. I’m 67 I can’t believe how rude or inappropriate some people can be at times I totally traditional Catholic and live esp TLM But have A good sense of humor I think I N think you guys hilarious
I am so grateful for you (three) and for the way you 'teach', help, guide and entertain me (us). God bless you, and your families and may this show run for ever!!! There is so much to learn about, to pray for and to laugh at and about :)
Lord Jesus, you have chosen Your priests among us and have sent them to proclaim Your Word and to act in Your Name. For such a great gift to Your Church, we praise You and we thank You. We ask that you fill them with the fire of Your love, that their ministry may reveal Your presence in the Church. Since they are earthen vessels, we pray that your power may work in their weakness. In their afflictions do not let them be crushed; in their doubts, do not let them despair; in temptation, do not let them be destroyed. Inspire them through prayer to live each day the mystery of your death and Resurrection. In times of weakness, send them Your Spirit and help them to praise your heavenly Father and to pray for poor sinners. With the same Holy Spirit place your word on their lips and your love in their hearts, that they may bring the Good News to the poor and revive the broken-hearted. Lastly, may the gift of Mary, your mother, to the disciple whom you loved, be your gift to every priest. Grant that she, who formed You in your human image, may form each priest in Your divine image, through the power of Your Spirit, to the glory of God the Father. Amen. (JPII implored the laity to always pray for our priests.)
All I know is priests work everyday. Actually they have some of the busiest schedules. I was thinking the other day how he manages to make regular appearance on this show, which is also equally important since most of the people are spending more and more time on the internet.
Thank you Fr Rich for what you do! I was just talking with someone about the need for Priest! I have personally encouraged someone to pray about it. Vivat Jesus!
Merci Father Richard, well said ! The people who insulted you , they are ignorant , with the internet they should look and study before they open their mouth. God be with you ! and guide you 1 and protect you ! Have the Holy water with you to sprinkle !
God bless Fr. Rich and thank you for your priesthood. You are delightful. I am adding you to my prayer list. I’m glad I found your utube website - I’m a new fan/follower of your show from Canada. P.S. I also enjoy the two gentleman who have been challenging you - they are cheeky/funny/loveable. Very helpful and interesting discussion - looking forward to your next video.
31:40 The Five Love Languages is one test that comes to mind here. It helps to determine what a person's gifts and talents are and how best to use them in an organizational structure. Also, I'm a big fan of the temperaments over the MBTI, because it too gives a better picture of a person's gifts, talents, and weaknesses. The MBTI tends to focus more on upsides only, where knowing one's weaknesses in addition to one's strengths is superbly helpful in determining how to assign people in an organization.
Me too, how funny, I’ve been watching for a long time now, its probably the only show I have that I watch faithfully and .... yup I finally subscribed.
The three of you are doing God’s work. I’ve read some nasty comments from time to time, but I hope you keep the armor of God to protect you. My husband and I enjoy all of your shows, but this one was particularly enlightening and entertaining. Thank you, Father Rich, for opening up and sharing your struggles and reminding us our priests are humans. Thank you to the Ryans for their quick wit and commentary. Your love for the Catholic faith is so inspiring.
@@cinwells7 I will pray for you too, I promise! I have a code that I can go into our vacant church, the host/Christ is still their. I light candles, prayer and also alms. I doubt but I have to have faith right?! We are married 19 years, sheesh God has long term plans.... :) God Bless, I am with you in Spirit and Prayers
@@cinwells7 oh and ask your priest if you can have the code to go in and do adoration when you can.. It is a life savior, for sure. Sounds weird if you haven’t done it before but check it out. The spirit in your heart actually moves you!
@@home17able I love adoration! Before the COVID restrictions our little Catholic hospital had perpetual adoration. I went nearly every day! I have only been once since then, at my parish. I need to make a more intentional effort. Thank you for the prayers and the encouragement!
@@cinwells7, unfortunately, your problems sound a lot like many problems on earth, for now, because we all want to find the quickest way to God, whenever we come against any obstacle we ASS-ME that there's a problem with our Faith not us. Praying for you and for us all.
Now we know much about Fr. Rich. The next show should be about Catholic families and tell us about the two Ryans. If I missed such a show, I apologize for not checking. Guys, stay blessed and safe under the protecting hand of God.
My 1st time watching & enjoy your show, so I subscribed. Hope that helps make Father Rich happy. Just listening to what you were talking about, let me say, I am happy to say that I belong to a parish with a wonderful priest and a generous parish in money & time.
You guys should make a video showcasing religious communities who make products for sale. I know a few who make candy, peanut butter, carved wood items, fruitcake, etc.
It's good to hear three men consecrated to Christ and who are still human and not idols like I was raised to believe a priest is beyond human nature. God bless you and be strong.
Amen, pray for all Priests and Seminarians…..good program guys, Thank you Father interesting testimony very refreshing…….to hear about day to day. Happenings…..God Bless you guys
Fr. Rich, from the plains of SouthDakota, I really appreciate you and love you!! ❤️ For some unknown reason I feel like if we do get a Holy Priest they quickly disappear, so I feel very blessed to have found you online!! Keep up the good work Father and God bless you and your ministry! 🌺
They probably disappear because all the other Priests hit on them for sex, it gets unbearable. Imagine the harassment they get in the seminary from the older Priests/teachers?
I became close friends of a good priest 20 years ago. Here in L.A., he's still providing several outdoor masses a day, hears confessions and anoints when he can. I have learned that a good priest is one of the hardest working men on the planet, not just the stress and exhaustion of any very demanding job, but the emotional and spiritual demands. It's also fascinating to watch him in public in clericals and in civvies. We were going to an expensive fund raiser for the arts and I told him he was not going to wear his nice priest jacket and call himself dressed up. He wasn't going as a priest. It was all good until we were chatting with a woman and in five minutes he has to tell her he's a priest. She turned to me, "are you a nun"? I get angry sometimes when I watch him when he's struggling with his own tragic situations, and people know, but still are just constantly grasping at him, demanding a piece.
Ah, the pedophile organization we call the Roman Catholic Church. Jesus must be proud of the mass child rapes and coverup. He also must be proud of the Vatican Bank's washing of Mafia blood money. When Jesus said bring the children unto me, was he going to rape them?
Hey brothers I love the show/podcast! I would love to see an episode where you guys discuss video games from a Catholic perspective. Also, do you or any clergy you know play videogames? Thanks and God bless you!
We over at three strands subscribed God bless each of you for this wonderful talk show! (Even if Fr. Rich is no Ffr. mike schmitz....but maybe he is a young Bishop Barron, or maybe even Bishop Fulton Sheen...)
Ryan Delacrosse, check out the Catherine of Siena Institute Charism discernment materials known as Called and Gifted for something to use to help people find their spiritual gifts to help them identify the best ways to minister and serve.
Absolutely love the show. Watch it all the time. Padre P is inspirational in that I see him as though looking through a mirror had I took a different path in life. We need more movies with good strong masculine priests. Talking like Spencer Tracy or something. Anywho. Great show. Love Ryan squared. So interested to learn more about all 3 of you personally and how you connected. I’d love to know where a Jesus went for 3 days of Dismus saw paradise that day yet Christ was in ‘hell’ for 3 days?!??? It’s a mystery
The people need you guys. You say 40 percent may dislike you they just don't know what to make of it all, but still know how much you are need by your church. Satan told Jesus it will take 100 years but he will crush the church on Earth. At this point in time it seems he gave you guys the ball, don't give it back. Build a good offense, we will crush Them with a good defence till everything gets back to a comfortable state for us. Toughen up this truly has taken to the ground.
As far as people not giving a lot of money. Unfortunately because of the economy situation we are currently in, people who are living check to check can’t afford to give as much money as they did before. Life had been getting better, then the economy went into this downward spiral and I was fighting to stay above water once again. So as I get better I am now able to give more.
Can you guys try to interview Father Paulo Ricardo? He is brazilian, and has the greatest catholic channel in TH-cam probably. (I'm brazilian too. Sorry my bad english 🥴)
I grew up in Florida, and I cannot imagine how anyone could describe the climate as "beautiful." The climate is beautiful in Montreal! (Says the person who moved to Beer Sheva, Israel.)
Dear Father, could you perhaps, if you have time, consider with the Bishop the possibility for the appointment of the Master of Ceremonies? With such a rich, flourishing parish, certainly it would be of ease to your planning schedule. I am an MC for one Manfred Grothe here with Good Catholics of Nordrhein-Westfalen, and I believe you would benefit from it! Certainly I would have come, if it wasn't for my dear Bishop. Best of fortune, Good Father!:)
I would think that the hardest part of being a Priest would be everyone looking for you to always be wise, always have the correct answer and having to do what your Bishop demands that is all Politics and Not Faith based.
Reminds me of the first time I met our diocese archbishop. It was during my RCIA training and my class got to meet him in a casual setting. In trying to break the ice to start a conversation I walked up to him and asked him if anyone ever told him he looks just like the actor Kevin Spacey? (He is a dead ringer). He seemed to blush a little, but he smiled so I don’t think I embarrassed him too much.
"Where few are gathered , I am among you " Yes Jesus the church is worth suffering for . Best of luck Father and I really wouldn't let it bother me what people say it's only what God thinks of you that counts
There used to be a priest in my church (before I moved to a different county) every Sunday, the priest would bring his golden retriever to church. The dog never barked during mass and would always lay next to the podium. After church, the dog would walk with the priest to say goodbye/talk/blessings to the people leaving. And every church event like the celebration of the church, baptism, etc the dog would be with the priest. I truly believe that golden retriever will be in heaven walking along side the priest. It was a cute duo priest and the dog.
Contributing also goes back to the Old Testament where Cain was giving God the first fruits of his labor whereas Abel was not and did not find favor with God. My husband and I contribute as a family as much as we can as that is what God requires us to do by his law ♥️🙏✝️
I went to a Catholic Grammar School and at a young age I thought the Priest just sat around and ate came outside while we were outside for recess and while we were in class they would stop by to visit Do daily Mass, Confessions and Funerals during the week. They would also teach us Religion once in awhile. Like a guest teacher. It is funny how differently you saw them through the eyes of a child. They also ran CYO.
You get asked about the celibacy thing a lot, because most young men don't see how that's even possible. And that's the thing that has discouraged many a young man from the Priesthood. I tried out celibacy when I was in high school for awhile. It was physically miserable and mental torture. I decided that perhaps, I didn't have the calling after all, and went to State University.
Oh wow, so i’m new to this channel and am pretty much binge watching … but ryan dellacrosse around minute 30-33asked if theres a way to figure out someones strength’s and align those gifts and talents so they are used so its helpful… well in my company we have STANDOUT by Marcus Buckingham. Does this precisely!!!!

@@home17able I love adoration! Before the COVID restrictions our little Catholic hospital had perpetual adoration. I went nearly every day! I have only been once since then, at my parish. I need to make a more intentional effort. Thank you for the prayers and the encouragement!
@@cinwells7, unfortunately, your problems sound a lot like many problems on earth, for now, because we all want to find the quickest way to God, whenever we come against any obstacle we ASS-ME that there's a problem with our Faith not us. Praying for you and for us all.
Now we know much about Fr. Rich. The next show should be about Catholic families and tell us about the two Ryans. If I missed such a show, I apologize for not checking. Guys, stay blessed and safe under the protecting hand of God.
Much love!
These are really well informed, educated men & entertaining as well, good sense of humor. I have learned lots here. And been entertained.
My 1st time watching & enjoy your show, so I subscribed. Hope that helps make Father Rich happy. Just listening to what you were talking about, let me say, I am happy to say that I belong to a parish with a wonderful priest and a generous parish in money & time.
You guys should make a video showcasing religious communities who make products for sale. I know a few who make candy, peanut butter, carved wood items, fruitcake, etc.
love this topic, 2nd part please? lol! You're always in my prayers Father and all the priests who motivate me:)
Pray even for those who does not motivate you, they even need more prayers than the others we love. This is according to Jesus Himself
It's good to hear three men consecrated to Christ and who are still human and not idols like I was raised to believe a priest is beyond human nature. God bless you and be strong.
Amen, pray for all Priests and Seminarians…..good program guys, Thank you Father interesting testimony very refreshing…….to hear about day to day. Happenings…..God Bless you guys
Hoodie?! I'm interested!!! Another great episode fellas.. good stuff. 👍👍👍👍
Fr. Rich, from the plains of SouthDakota, I really appreciate you and love you!! ❤️ For some unknown reason I feel like if we do get a Holy Priest they quickly disappear, so I feel very blessed to have found you online!! Keep up the good work Father and God bless you and your ministry! 🌺
They probably disappear because all the other Priests hit on them for sex, it gets unbearable. Imagine the harassment they get in the seminary from the older Priests/teachers?
Great episode guys! Shout out to Howie!
Great show, really inspiring!
Watching from Cebu philippines.I like your program and topic discussed.
GOD BLESS YOU, Father 👍🇺🇸😇
I became close friends of a good priest 20 years ago. Here in L.A., he's still providing several outdoor masses a day, hears confessions and anoints when he can.
I have learned that a good priest is one of the hardest working men on the planet, not just the stress and exhaustion of any very demanding job, but the emotional and spiritual demands.
It's also fascinating to watch him in public in clericals and in civvies. We were going to an expensive fund raiser for the arts and I told him he was not going to wear his nice priest jacket and call himself dressed up. He wasn't going as a priest. It was all good until we were chatting with a woman and in five minutes he has to tell her he's a priest. She turned to me, "are you a nun"?
I get angry sometimes when I watch him when he's struggling with his own tragic situations, and people know, but still are just constantly grasping at him, demanding a piece.
Ah, the pedophile organization we call the Roman Catholic Church. Jesus must be proud of the mass child rapes and coverup. He also must be proud of the Vatican Bank's washing of Mafia blood money. When Jesus said bring the children unto me, was he going to rape them?
Thank you trie Catholic show God bless
I am happy watching your show today. Have a nice day to all of you.
Father Ted is Irish humour. Set in Ireland with Irish actors but produced by British channel 4
Praying for the three of y’all
Thank you, gentlemen!
Hey brothers I love the show/podcast! I would love to see an episode where you guys discuss video games from a Catholic perspective. Also, do you or any clergy you know play videogames? Thanks and God bless you!
Send us an email: info@catholictalkshow.com
Everything he says is absolutly true on Priests pet peeves.
After watching this episode, im sure the catholic talkshow guys are my current favorite bromance.
God bless Chatholic talk show 🙏✝️
We over at three strands subscribed God bless each of you for this wonderful talk show! (Even if Fr. Rich is no Ffr. mike schmitz....but maybe he is a young Bishop Barron, or maybe even Bishop Fulton Sheen...)
Ryan Delacrosse, check out the Catherine of Siena Institute Charism discernment materials known as Called and Gifted for something to use to help people find their spiritual gifts to help them identify the best ways to minister and serve.
I really enjoy watching the show, maybe one day I'll subscribe.
BRUH, just do it.
Absolutely love the show. Watch it all the time. Padre P is inspirational in that I see him as though looking through a mirror had I took a different path in life. We need more movies with good strong masculine priests. Talking like Spencer Tracy or something. Anywho. Great show. Love Ryan squared. So interested to learn more about all 3 of you personally and how you connected. I’d love to know where a Jesus went for 3 days of Dismus saw paradise that day yet Christ was in ‘hell’ for 3 days?!??? It’s a mystery
The people need you guys. You say 40 percent may dislike you they just don't know what to make of it all, but still know how much you are need by your church. Satan told Jesus it will take 100 years but he will crush the church on Earth. At this point in time it seems he gave you guys the ball, don't give it back. Build a good offense, we will crush
Them with a good defence till everything gets back to a comfortable state for us. Toughen up this truly has taken to the ground.
I love your show!
Such a good episode! Thanks, guys!
Am I allowed to talk to a priest About coming back to church . If I hadn't been there for a long time
It will be a big party on geaven if you comeback. Any Priest will be happy ifvyou approach him. God bless.
You guys are awesome, thankyou
Address to donate to the show.Ireally love the show
Teehee, that was a clever way to show others how to “Subscribe” to your channel... ;) 🙏🏻✨👍🏻
God bless you father
We love our Priest🙏❤
As far as people not giving a lot of money. Unfortunately because of the economy situation we are currently in, people who are living check to check can’t afford to give as much money as they did before. Life had been getting better, then the economy went into this downward spiral and I was fighting to stay above water once again. So as I get better I am now able to give more.
Those bobblehead saints... Like, should they be used for veneration or what? It's kinda weird putting them in a Retablos.
Can you guys try to interview Father Paulo Ricardo? He is brazilian, and has the greatest catholic channel in TH-cam probably.
(I'm brazilian too. Sorry my bad english 🥴)
There was a lector that always said "the Responsatorial Psalm" and the choir would get the giggles.
God bless you. Thank you
I grew up in Florida, and I cannot imagine how anyone could describe the climate as "beautiful."
The climate is beautiful in Montreal! (Says the person who moved to Beer Sheva, Israel.)
Thanks guys...🙏🌹
Dear Father, could you perhaps, if you have time, consider with the Bishop the possibility for the appointment of the Master of Ceremonies? With such a rich, flourishing parish, certainly it would be of ease to your planning schedule. I am an MC for one Manfred Grothe here with Good Catholics of Nordrhein-Westfalen, and I believe you would benefit from it! Certainly I would have come, if it wasn't for my dear Bishop. Best of fortune, Good Father!:)
I would think that the hardest part of being a Priest would be everyone looking for you to always be wise, always have the correct answer and having to do what your Bishop demands that is all Politics and Not Faith based.
Reminds me of the first time I met our diocese archbishop. It was during my RCIA training and my class got to meet him in a casual setting. In trying to break the ice to start a conversation I walked up to him and asked him if anyone ever told him he looks just like the actor Kevin Spacey? (He is a dead ringer). He seemed to blush a little, but he smiled so I don’t think I embarrassed him too much.
Yay for St Dismus!!
Love the name of your company!
@@ryandellacrosse6416 Thanks!!
"Where few are gathered , I am among you " Yes Jesus the church is worth suffering for . Best of luck Father and I really wouldn't let it bother me what people say it's only what God thinks of you that counts
Before watching I will say, celibacy is not one of them but he WILL say that everyone assumes it is.
Hello me and my family watching from Malaysia 👍
There used to be a priest in my church (before I moved to a different county) every Sunday, the priest would bring his golden retriever to church. The dog never barked during mass and would always lay next to the podium. After church, the dog would walk with the priest to say goodbye/talk/blessings to the people leaving. And every church event like the celebration of the church, baptism, etc the dog would be with the priest. I truly believe that golden retriever will be in heaven walking along side the priest. It was a cute duo priest and the dog.
Ok Thank you Roman Catholic. ❤
Contributing also goes back to the Old Testament where Cain was giving God the first fruits of his labor whereas Abel was not and did not find favor with God. My husband and I contribute as a family as much as we can as that is what God requires us to do by his law ♥️🙏✝️
Sure do wish I could go to mass at Father P's church!
I went to a Catholic Grammar School and at a young age I thought the Priest just sat around and ate came outside while we were outside for recess and while we were in class they would stop by to visit Do daily Mass, Confessions and Funerals during the week. They would also teach us Religion once in awhile. Like a guest teacher. It is funny how differently you saw them through the eyes of a child. They also ran CYO.
You get asked about the celibacy thing a lot, because most young men don't see how that's even possible. And that's the thing that has discouraged many a young man from the Priesthood. I tried out celibacy when I was in high school for awhile. It was physically miserable and mental torture. I decided that perhaps, I didn't have the calling after all, and went to State University.
Absolutely
Lads, Father Ted is set in Ireland
Right, but's its a BBC show (we think?)
Oh wow, so i’m new to this channel and am pretty much binge watching … but ryan dellacrosse around minute 30-33asked if theres a way to figure out someones strength’s and align those gifts and talents so they are used so its helpful… well in my company we have STANDOUT by Marcus Buckingham.
