On Friday I was in Appleton Wisconson for the Esto Vir. When they invited me I had no idea what Esto Vir meant. Sounded something like estrogen but I knew it could not be that. I looked it up and discovered it was King David’s challenge to his son Solomon – “Be a Man!”
It was a great bunch of guys, sold out long before the event. I was proud and excited to share the faith with these enthusiastic Catholic guys. I gave my new talk “St. Joseph: Manly Man & Chosen Father” and “Swimming Upstream.” Fr. Chris Alar gave a talk on suicide and life beyond the grave. Eric Mahl and Bishop Ricken were also speakers.
Beforehand, I drove up to Green Bay Wisconsin to join Drew Mariani live on Relevant Radio. You can listen to our discussion below. My segment begins 17:00 minutes into the show.

It is always great being with 4,000 on-fire Catholics who bring their whole families to be recharged and full of life. Catholics are marvelous folks. Love being with old friends like Terry Barber, Fr. Callaway, Dr. Ray Guarendi, Tim Staples and Bishop Kemme. A lot of other great folks too.
Next on our way to 6 days alone with our 4 kids and 16 grandkids! Lovely! Then to EWTN in Alabama for two TV shows (EWTN Live with Fr. Mitch Pacwa and Bookmarks with Doug Keck, then to speak in Indianapolis before embarking on our sold-out pilgrimage to Poland. God is good! Pray for us!
