Lisää Just An Average Catholic - Pursuing Holiness in Ordinary Life

Just an Average Catholic is a podcast for everyday Catholics who want to grow in faith, awareness, and holiness—right where they are. This isn’t a show about having all the answers. It’s about taking small, intentional steps toward Christ through ordinary life, simple prayer, and faithful service. Through reflection, Scripture, and real conversations, we explore what it means to live the Catholic faith sincerely and imperfectly—one step at a time. Because holiness isn’t reserved for the extraordinary. It’s built quietly, in everyday moments.

Episode 14 – Faith Outside the Church Walls

What does it really mean to live our faith once Sunday Mass is over? In Episode 14 of Just An Average Catholic, Michael Champagne reflects on the challenge of carrying our Catholic faith into everyday life — into our workplaces, families, friendships, conversations, and even the difficult moments we face each day. In a world filled with noise, division, distraction, and constant pressure, authentic Christianity is often revealed not through perfection, but through quiet consistency: compassion, patience, forgiveness, humility, and hope. This episode explores: * Why faith was never meant to stay inside a church building * The importance of living as witnesses in ordinary life * How small daily actions can reflect Christ to others * The challenge of remaining grounded in a distracted world * Finding peace and purpose through intentional faith Whether you’re strong in your faith journey or simply trying to stay spiritually grounded in everyday life, this conversation offers encouragement and practical reflection for living faithfully beyond the church walls. Scripture References: * Matthew 5:14 * Colossians 3:12-13 * Psalm 46:10 Thank you for listening to Just An Average Catholic.

Episode 13 - Faith During Dry Seasons

What happens when prayer feels empty… and God feels distant? In this episode of Just An Average Catholic, Michael Champagne reflects on the spiritual dry seasons that many Christians experience but few openly discuss. Whether caused by exhaustion, grief, distraction, suffering, or quiet spiritual growth, these seasons can leave us wondering where God is — and whether our faith is weakening. But spiritual dryness is not the same as spiritual failure. Drawing from Scripture, the Psalms, the lives of the saints, and personal reflection, this episode explores how faith often grows deepest beneath the surface — in perseverance, silence, and trust beyond emotion. If you’ve ever struggled to pray, felt spiritually exhausted, or wondered whether God was still near, this conversation is for you. Scripture References: * Psalm 22 * Psalm 42 * 2 Corinthians 5:7 * Romans 8:26 * John 6:35 * 1 Kings 19 “Sometimes faith is simply choosing to stay.”

Episode 12 - What Happens When You Hear Him?

Last episode, we reflected on recognizing the voice of God. But hearing Him is only the beginning. The real question is: what happens next? In Episode 12 of Just An Average Catholic, we explore what it means to truly follow Christ in the middle of uncertainty, suffering, and everyday life. This episode challenges the idea of being an “à la carte Catholic” — choosing only the comfortable parts of the faith — while encouraging listeners to embrace the small daily acts of trust and surrender that shape authentic discipleship. Through reflections on Scripture, perseverance, suffering, and the beauty of a faithful life lived well, this episode reminds us that holiness is rarely built in dramatic moments. More often, it’s formed quietly through ordinary faithfulness and small “yeses” to God. Michael also shares a personal reflection on the peaceful passing of his father-in-law and the deeply Catholic understanding of praying for the grace of a holy and peaceful death. This episode invites listeners to consider: • What is God asking me to trust Him with right now? • Am I following Christ completely… or selectively? • What small “yes” is God asking of me today? Because maybe being “just an average Catholic” isn’t about settling for average faith… maybe it’s about continuing to say yes to an extraordinary God one small step at a time.

Episode 11 - Recognizing the Voice of God

In Episode 11 of Just An Average Catholic, we explore one of the most important questions in the spiritual life: How do you recognize the voice of God? Is it a feeling? A thought? A sense of peace? Or something else entirely? God is always speaking—but discerning His voice from our own thoughts, emotions, or outside noise can be challenging. In this episode, we break down what discernment really looks like, how God often communicates in subtle ways, and how patience, prayer, and formation help us recognize His guidance more clearly. If you’ve ever questioned whether God is leading you, struggled to make a decision, or wanted greater clarity in your faith journey—this episode is for you. Learning to recognize His voice doesn’t happen overnight… but it changes everything when you do.
