Gab & GROW - A Chat with the Dean of the Ancell School of Business
We've all heard the title "Dean" before, but do we know anything about what it is they do and who they are? Probably not, but we're going to change that today. Listen in as we speak to the Dean of the Ancell School of Business, Dr. David Martin about his job as Dean, what's going on in Ancell, and why a business class might be helpful even if you're not a business major.

It's Ok to GIve Up Chocolate
A popular devotion site advertises itself with the tag line "Don't Give Up Chocolate for Lent." They are probably well intentioned, but this is really a bad way to advertise. The things we are to do in Lent are prayer, fasting, and almgiving, and fasting is included. Not everyone needs to give up chocolate, but giving up something is good for us, and I'll explain why in this episode.

About Those Other Issues
As Catholics, we have a duty to be pro-life, but what about these other issues that we need to tend to? Why are some Catholics repulsed by social justice? Sometimes it's political ideology, but there may be some other issues as well. I talk about it in this episode.

Get Out of Bed
One way to do penance to strengthen your will is to get to bed on time and wake up on time every morning, either at the same time each day or maybe just a little later on weekends. When the alarm clock goes up, get up without hitting snooze. it will keep you from wasting time, help you avoid temptations to laziness, and serve as a form of mortification that won't harm you.

When the Official Programs Do Not Convey the Faith
One of the most frustrating things in trying to help people learn the fullness of the Catholic faith is that even some of the official programs available in your area may not be truly teaching the faith. There may be practices in the parish that are really not what is supposed to go on. We often have a hard time convincing people that what is happening is really not how things are supposed to be. Howewver, we must not lose heart.

Orthodoxy and Avoiding Friendly Fire
There are different groups and different spiritualities within the Church that are still orthodox. While there may be legitimate issues in any particular movement, it's important that we do not become overly critical of other movements or treat them as necessarily inferior.

What Are We FIlling Our Minds With?
Take a look at the music we listen to, the movies we watch, and the books we ready. Are they turning our minds towards truth, beauty, and goodness, or away from it. We would not tolerate entertainment that insulted our family and friends. Why would we entertain ourselves with something that offends God?

Lunch Break: Lesser Known Sins, Part 2, Calumny, Detraction, and Rash Judgment
Often times, people will refer to gossip as a sin, but the term is often poorly defined. In fact, it isn't defined at all in Church teaching. How do we know when we are saying something sinful about another person? Well, I don't think I can cover every case, but here are some definite things to be avoided. One hint - just because it's true doesn't mean it's moral to tell someone.

I post this as someone who was quite inexperienced at teaching children. I have mainly taught adults. However, I have learned a thing or two with my toddler. Some every day things like praying with the child or taking him to the crucifix provide a great foundation for showing him that God should be at the center of our lives.
