The Catholic Man Show - Can a Christian Drink? Catholic Answers Focus

Catholic Answers has Adam and David on their podcast, Catholic Answers Focus

Is it okay for Christians to be drinking alcohol? What does the Church say about drinking and virtue? We talk about it on Catholic Answers Focus with Cy Kellett.
Catholic Answers Focus is an exciting podcast produced by Catholic Answers. Focus highlights in-depth conversations with Catholic leaders, newsmakers, and unsung heroes of the faith. With a wide array of topics and guests, and compelling commentary on current events, Catholic Answers Focus has something for everyone.
They drink, they smoke, they make a popular show for Catholic men (The Catholic Man Show), so we ask Adam and David to justify Catholic teaching on the acceptability of drinking. Wouldn’t God prefer that we all just stay away from the sauce and stick with tea? That depends, it turns out.

Fitness and Virtue with Pat Flynn – Episode 1 God didn’t just create us as spirits and then shackle us with bodies. As Catholics, we believe that the body and soul are intimately woven together, so it’s important that we work on both. Our friend Pat Flynn has written and spoken a lot on the virtues of fitness. He also has written several books, including an Amazon #1 seller:  Introduction to Kettlebells: A Minimalist’s Guide to Blasting Fat and Boosting Muscle.  A writer, entrepreneur, and “re-converted” Catholic, Pat focuses his efforts on helping others find happiness and wholeness through fitness, philosophy, and faith.
