The Hidden Wound Every Manosphere Guru Exploits | WMF18

Every boy desires to become a man. But what happens when authentic models of masculinity are missing?In this episode, we unpack the rise of the manosphere, the deep wounds many young men are carrying, and why so many influencers are gaining traction by speaking to those wounds. Are they offering genuine healing—or simply monetizing male insecurity? Along the way, we explore fatherhood, the need for masculine affirmation, the difference between strength and domination, and what it really means to become a man. Drawing on Theology of the Body, personal stories, and a fascinating documentary, this conversation gets to the heart of a question every man, and every parent of boys, must face: who is teaching our sons what it means to be men? 🎙️ Word Made Fresh Links: 🎵 Listen WMF on Spotify [https://open.spotify.com/show/45zfXd4tSlqoQQObSCLkwy?si=i1fda-9KSPe7hfP9QzYD4w] 📍 Tour Dates [https://tobinstitute.org/live-events/] 📩 Send us your art & questions [wmf@tobinstitute.org]: wmf@tobinstitute.org  Christopher West: 📸⁠ Instagram⁠ [https://www.instagram.com/cwestofficial/] 🔵 ⁠Facebook⁠ [https://www.facebook.com/cwestofficial] 🎤 ⁠Ask Christopher West Podcast⁠ [https://open.spotify.com/show/2dCkL6l7ogGgbNiqMf7K65?si=d39f694c9eb7486a] Mike Mangione: 🎵 Mike's Music [https://distrokid.com/hyperfollow/mikemangione/promised-land] ▶️ YouTube [https://www.youtube.com/@mikemangione]  📸 ⁠Instagram⁠ [https://www.instagram.com/mangionemusic/] 🎸 ⁠Mike's website⁠ [https://www.mikemangione.com/] 🗺️ ⁠Mike's tour⁠ [https://www.mikemangione.com/live-performance] Bill Donaghy: 📸 ⁠Instagram⁠ [https://www.instagram.com/thewayofwonderofficial/] Theology of the Body Institute Resources: 🔥 ⁠3 FREE sessions of our flagship course on the TOB⁠ [https://www.tobforfree.com/] 💬 Text TOB to (404) 647-7682 ⚡️ ⁠Support us & get access to leading TOB formation⁠ [https://www.tobpatron.com/] 📚 ⁠Course schedule⁠ [https://tobinstitute.org/programs/tobi-schedule/] 🏔️ ⁠Pilgrimages⁠ [http://tobpilgrimages.com/] 🛍️ ⁠Store⁠ [https://shop.corproject.com/]

This Is What the Vatican Wants the Whole World to Know | WMF16

In this episode, the guys dive into the "language of the body," wrestling with those visual moments that often speak louder than words. They bridge the gap between rock stars and classical art, debating everything from Bono’s "blurry lines" of intimacy on stage to the profound symbolism hidden in plain sight at the Vatican.The heart of the conversation centers on the striking "Chastity" sculpture in Saint Peter’s Basilica. Why would a statue representing chastity be a bare-breasted woman? They break down the paradox of this figure—one breast veiled, the other uncovered—holding a unicorn horn and a flower. It’s a provocative "gesture" meant to invite us into the deeper mystery of the virtue, far beyond simple modesty.From JP2’s silent prayers at the Wailing Wall to the "king of the gesture" lifting his jacket at the Super Bowl, this episode is a deep dive into how our bodies convey truth.

Is Drunkenness a Sin, Pro-Life Church But Anti-IVF, & the Morality of Lingerie | WMF15

Join us for a fresh Q&A on Word Made Fresh, where we untwist the deep desires of the human heart. In this episode, we dive into the "wine of God," exploring whether getting drunk is a sin—or if we’re actually meant to be inebriated by Divine Love. We also tackle the tough questions: why is the Church against IVF if she’s pro-life? We discuss the difference between grasping for a "product" and receiving a "gift," and how even in suffering, there is a supernatural fertility more real than biological life. From the "wine cellar of God" to the morality of lingerie, we're looking at it all through the lens of the Theology of the Body. Don’t just excise your desires—learn how to properly order them toward a real, deep communion.
