ILT Ep57 Bishop James Conley

This week on In Layman's Terms, hosts John Soukup and Bob Sullivan welcome a very special guest: Bishop James D. Conley of the Diocese of Lincoln. In a wide-ranging and candid conversation, Bishop Conley discusses the Diocese of Lincoln's new pastoral plan and the vital role Catholic men play in strengthening parish life, marriage, family, vocations, and the future of the Church. The discussion tackles some of the biggest challenges facing men today — isolation, complacency, spiritual battle, and the call to leadership — while offering practical encouragement for men striving to live their faith with courage and purpose. You'll also hear Bishop Conley describe what it means to prepare for what the hosts call the “Universal Championship” — the ultimate battle for souls — and why no Catholic man is meant to remain on the sidelines.

ILT Ep56 Deacon Harold Burke Sivers

This week on In Layman's Terms, hosts John Soukup and Bob Sullivan welcome one of the most recognizable voices in Catholic evangelization today: Deacon Harold Burke-Sivers — widely known as “The Dynamic Deacon.” A nationally and internationally known speaker, preacher, and retreat leader, Deacon Harold is respected for his direct, practical, and uncompromising approach to the Catholic faith. In this powerful conversation, he addresses some of the deepest struggles facing men today: purpose, fear, prayer, failure, broken relationships, and spiritual exhaustion. What does it really mean to discern God's will? Why do so many men fear failure? What should a man do when he feels spiritually stuck or distant from God? And for fathers carrying wounded relationships with their children, where does healing begin? Listeners will also hear Deacon Harold offer practical guidance for building a disciplined prayer life — even for men who feel too busy to pray — and explain why humility, perseverance, and daily faithfulness matter more than perfection. If you know a man searching for direction, strength, or deeper purpose, this is an episode you'll want to share.
