One key benefit is spiritual growth, a daily reflection on Scripture exposes men to timeless wisdom and the lives of saints. This habit aligns their minds with Gospel values, encouraging virtues like humility, courage, and perseverance. The Catechism of the Catholic Church (CCC 2705) underscores meditation on spiritual texts as a path to understanding God's will, making it a practical way to grow in holiness.

Another advantage is discipline. Committing to daily reading builds a routine that mirrors the consistency of prayer or Mass attendance. For men juggling work, family, and societal pressures, this discipline becomes an anchor, helping them prioritize faith over distractions. Research, such as a 2019 study from Psychology of Religion and Spirituality, suggests that regular spiritual practices enhance self-control and emotional stability, benefits that ripple into personal and professional life.

A daily spiritual book also equips Catholic men to lead. As husbands, fathers, or community members, they're called to be servant-leaders (Ephesians 5:25). Reflections on Christ's example or saintly masculinity--think St. Joseph's quiet strength--offer practical insights for guiding others with love and integrity. This strengthens their ability to witness faith in a secular world.

Finally, it fosters peace. In a culture of noise and anxiety, a few minutes with a spiritual text provides stillness, connecting men to God's presence. Over time, this practice transforms them into men of prayer and action, living their faith boldly and authentically.

Discover what it means to become a man of faith through the lives of ten male saints and their experiences pursuing holiness. In Holy Grit, you'll join Catholic life coach Paul George to consider some of the tough issues facing men today--struggles in marriage, parenting, suffering, and finding purpose--to determine areas for growth and take steps toward living the life for which God created you.

You might have grown up with an image of masculinity defined by tough guys on TV--boxers, gangsters, cowboys, fighter pilots, the fastest gun in the West. These guys had courage, backbone, and guts. They had grit.

"As a man, I know the struggles of living a manly existence. It is one I deal with daily," George writes. "I'm no expert, but I'm a gritty guy, like you, grinding it out on my journey."

But George admits that grit isn't enough to satisfy the longing in a man's soul: you have to start trusting God and taking seriously the call to be holy.

Holy Grit is rich in personal stories, thought-provoking questions, spiritual insights, and mental health tips that help Catholic men like you build the spiritual foundation you need to serve your family, parish, and community. George invites you to examine how saints such as Maximilian Kolbe, Louis Martin, and John Paul II understood themselves as men. Learning from the lessons of the saints, George will help you explore how to:

Each chapter introduces a saint, offers practical takeaways for modern men, and includes reflection questions, an action plan, and a prayer.

WHAT YOU WILL LEARN:

This is a book that should not have to be written. Its purpose is to return to men a sense of their worth as men and to give to boys the noble aim of manliness, an aim which is their due by right.

One of the most courageous and penetrating writers of our time, Anthony Esolen shows that men and women would both be happier if men came to a just appraisal of their worth. The manhood he praises does not boast or swagger, but it appreciates its powers. It is reluctant to hurt, but it does not cringe or cower.

The whole of civilization rests on the shoulders of men who have done work that most people would not do--and that the physically weaker sex could not have done. And though the masculine mystique is about more than physical force, the differences between the sexes--manifold and profound--are all related in some way to that one, the easiest difference to see and the hardest to deny.

The feminist who mindlessly asserts that "a woman needs a man like a fish needs a bicycle" takes her comfortable world--including the bicycle--for granted. And she betrays her lovelessness and ingratitude. Worse, she poisons the minds and hearts of boys with her talk of "toxic masculinity."

No Apologies, with its compelling vision of a strong and effective manhood, reminds men that they have powers as men, and that those powers must be used for the common good, for everyone--men, women, and children all.

"The Rosary is for old ladies and funerals." Or is it? In David N. Calvillo's debut book, he reveals how each week, thousands of men of all ages and backgrounds join together in the Real Men Pray the Rosary movement and are seeing the fruit of this spiritual discipline in their lives and families. Destined to become a new centerpiece of Catholic men's spirituality, this dynamic book and movement bring men together, deepening their devotion to Christ through Mary. Often surprising and always inspiring, Calvillo combines storytelling with a profound, inviting guide and convincingly shows how the Rosary is alive and well today--for men. Real Men Pray the Rosary is also an ideal gift to men from the women in their lives.

The apostles are trapped in a mighty storm, their fishing boat on the brink of capsizing. . . . And Jesus slept. This confused, scared, and even angered the apostles, who could not fight back the storm. But as always, Christ is our model.

In these modern times, we often find ourselves adrift in a storm of stress, anxiety, and chronic busy-ness. We all suffer from it. In these moments, it's easy to react like the apostles. To panic, to become angry, to be frightened.

But like Christ, we should strive to be still amidst the storm. Here, Conor Gallagher (as a father of 12, no stranger to life's chaos) helps you reflect upon and cultivate three remedies to the stress of modern life:

Families are being destroyed and souls are being cast into hell because of soft and effeminate men. In Terror of Demons, Kennedy Hall provides the cure: traditional Catholic masculinity.

Drawing on centuries of Catholic wisdom from Scripture and the saints, Hall provides the tools for the reader to conquer effeminacy and be a man of God. This book is not for the weak-hearted but will strike every man with the sharpness of iron--he who has ears to hear will receive strength herein. The world is in desperate need of such men. Let the men of God arise.

St. Joseph, Terror of Demons, pray for us!

In this timely book, acclaimed radio host and author Jesse Romero teaches men how the traditional liturgy equips them to put on the armor of Christ and fight the daily spiritual battle for souls.

Drawing from his background in law enforcement and spiritual warfare, Romero outlines why the traditional Latin Mass spoke to him in such a powerful way and transformed his spiritual life. He describes how the implementation of the new Mass -- with its emotionalism and horizontal focus -- led men in particular to lose the zeal of the saints, and how the manner in which they worship God is central to restoring that fervor.

Romero breaks down exactly why men find their "natural and supernatural home on this earth" at the traditional Mass. He highlights:

Romero includes select essays from priests on the efficacy of traditional prayers, and firsthand testimonies from powerful Catholic men of today, including NFL kicker Harrison Butker, UFC Hall of Famer Bas Rutten, and Navy SEAL Charlie Aeschliman, who have found solace and purpose in the traditional liturgy.

As contributor Kyle Clement, a rancher, husband, and father puts it, "Part of the masculine disposition is a desire for ritual and fraternity -- ritual meaning order. The Holy Roman Mass in the Tridentine form is ordered, and it is order that lifts the soul toward Heaven."

In the midst of a culture that distorts authentic masculinity and femininity, the timeless teachings of the Catholic Church, as expressed through her traditional liturgy, stand steadfastly in the fray.

What Attracts Men to the Sacred Liturgy -- and Why gives men insight into how the liturgy is the wellspring of their vocations, the source of their strength, and the fullest expression of the truth worth dying for.
