Hi fellas, I am going out with a (non-Catholic) girl for the first time, and I am currently wrestling with lust/desire/intrusive thoughts. Do you have any advice on boundaries, and how to set them? Thanks and God Bless.

I told myself I would stop jerking off if I ever got a second chance at life n now that I did I started messing with this one ex I had n boom I would end up doing it n it wasn’t random either Well after my car accident I started listening to prophetic words online n they would tell me not to do it so i didn’t n one time that chick asked me to stay the night one time n out of nowhere after every profetic word i would get about not jerking off I would hear this little voice in my head telling me to do n totally go against the video i just watched n that happened like twice so i prayed that witchcraft wouldn’t work against me n boom one of those videos comes right after the prayer n me being as skeptical as I am i thought it can’t come this soon ill stop jerking off on the next video i see n little did o know that was my answered prayer so little heads up to anyone that is going through that don’t listen to the little voice in your head n don’t go against anything god is trying to tell you

We all grew up hearing the phrase “What Would Jesus Do?” Most of the time we used it to stop ourselves from snapping back or cussing someone out after they insult us. But let’s go deeper. Jesus is a Servant King. He loved everyone, no matter how broken they were. He fed the hungry, clothed those who were cold, and forgave anyone who asked for mercy. Look at St. Dismas, the Good Thief. Even as Jesus was beaten, battered, and dying, Dismas begged Him for forgiveness. And Jesus, with a heart completely open, forgave him. On the Cross Christ even forgave the people who hated Him and nailed Him there. That is what it means to be a Servant King. He leads by example. So when I see people holding “No Kings Day” rallies, the message is missing the truth. You do serve a king. Every single one of us does. You either serve Christ the King, or you serve the king of lies, which is sin, the world, and death. Maybe the sign should say: “No Kings Day… except for the King of the Universe.” Because one day every knee will bow to Christ the King. It is never too late to give your heart and your suffering to Jesus. He will love you no matter what you have done. And today is a perfect day to go to church, because the Church is a hospital for sinners. We are all sick and in need of our medicine. God bless everyone. Christ is King.

This is the book my Catholic Men's Book Club decided to read. The novel is set during the anti-Catholic persecution carried out by Mexico’s socialist, militantly secular government in the 1930s, especially under President Plutarco Elías Calles and the aftermath of the Cristero War.

Hey brothers, It’s been a minute! I’ve been working a lot, staying in shape, and spending time with Jesus. Lately, I’ve been getting back into making music too. But I’ve been kinda battling with myself I’ve been making Christian EDM, and I’m not sure if that’s okay or if I should chill on it. I just want to do right and be a good Catholic. Be real with me, brothers what do y’all think?
