🔴 Get the entire conversation at Catholic Gentleman+ https://catholicgentlemanplus.com To truly live a great life, you need to discipline your basic appetites, and this one desire hits us every day of our lives. We need men who understand and embrace fasting as the way to holiness that Christ clearly taught us. However, this spiritual practice gets confused and distorted in today's world. Men have become deadened to what is needed to reach the heights of perfection and truly live as a man. Today's guest, Fr. David Abernethy, shares the historical, ontological, and practical depths of this spiritual discipline. Learn how to stay motivated, consistent in your practice, and actually experience growth in holiness.
