Sonship, Brotherhood, Husbandhood, Fatherhood: Authentic Catholic Manhood Distilled

This is a place for Catholic manhood. Masculinity in this context means placing divinely created and ordered sonship, brotherhood, husbandhood and fatherhood at the heart of what it is to be authentically male.

This is not just for the married Catholic layman, but for the young and old, the single or ordained, and for all of us who have struggled with being an authentic man.

The guidance here represents the views and experiences of Catholic men, covering a range of spiritual and secular topics, but always aiming to adhere to the teachings of the Catholic Church.

Join a Men’s Group

Action is at the heart of Catholic manhood.

Men must be single minded in pursuing the mission of authentic Catholic masculinity: love of God, self-knowledge and self-discipline in the virtues, leading us to perfect our primary duty of sacramental and sacrificial fatherhood.

And we must pursue this mission in physical groups alongside good Catholic men, who we can imitate and encourage, sharing in the sonship that comes from sharing the Eucharist.

When men live out this mission, we will lead our families to Christ; then we and our families will bring the life of Christ into the world.
