Restore the Glory Ep. 137: Sports, Athletics & Faith (Part 2) w/ Bart Schuchts

Jake and Bob welcome Bart Schuchts, a former D1 football player, to the podcast. Bart reflects on how athletics shaped his self-identity, beliefs, and relationships from childhood through his adult life. They also discuss sports culture, fear-based coaching, and the fine line between healthy competition and idolizing sports. Ultimately, when approached with balance and intention, athletics can foster deep connection, personal growth, and spiritual insight that extends far beyond the game itself, enriching every aspect of life.

Trusting in the Father's Provision

“Self-reliance can creep into our lives in subtle ways, and fear and control often mask as responsibility. Listen in as Dr. Bob shares personal stories and insights from his new book Trusting Our Father’s Provision, which demonstrate how real freedom begins when we let go and allow God to provide.

If you’ve ever struggled to surrender your finances, your future, or your sense of security to God, the Father sees you. He knows what you need. And He can be trusted.”

Healing Through the Sacraments

“In his book, Dr. Bob provides insight into how each of the seven sacraments (baptism, holy communion, confirmation, holy orders, matrimony, reconciliation, and the anointing of the sick) heal specific wounds we all face.

These wounds of rejection, abandonment, powerlessness, confusion, fear, shame, or hopelessness hinder us from recognizing our true identity and block us from living out our true mission. However, God in His mercy, has provided the 7 sacraments as antidotes to these wounds.”

The Healing Power of the Eucharist https://jpiihealingcenter.org/the-healing-power-of-the-eucharist/ Wed, 31 Jul 2024 01:29:38 +0000 https://jpiihealingcenter.org/?p=49326

The Healing Power of the Eucharist

By Dr. Bob Schuchts
“Jesus’ mission is healing (see Isaiah 61 and Luke 4)! His name in Hebrew (Yashua) literally means: “God’s salvation,” which is another way of saying “God’s healing.” Jesus came to earth to heal the whole person, the whole family, the whole Church, and the whole world. This healing is meant to touch our bodies, souls, and spirits, and to bring us back into communion with the Trinity and one another.”

Holiness is the Work of the Holy Spirit with Carrie Daunt

I am the vine; you are the branches. If you remain in me and I in you, you will bear much fruit, apart from me you can do nothing” John 15:5

“This week speaker, author, and my dear friend, Carrie Daunt, and I dive into the first section in Father Jacque Philippe’s book “In the School of the Holy Spirit” for our summer book series. It was a treasure for my own heart to reflect upon the unique workings of the Holy Spirit in each of our lives.

All too often we believe the lie that the pathway to holiness is to plan it all out, muscle up the effort, and white knuckle our way towards virtue and sainthood. However, Father Jacque Philippe makes it abundantly clear that it is in fact much simpler than that. He discusses that holiness is produced by the openness and obedience to the promptings of the Holy Spirit.”

Personal Formation with Dr. Bob

“Our guest, Dr. Bob Schuchts, shares with us his decades of experience as a healer through his discussion of his four identities of love, the four dimensions of formation, the integration of personal formation in the work of the John Paul II Healing Center, the centrality of love in healing, the necessity of felt safety and trust, and the importance of distinguishing the natural from the spiritual, especially with parts and demons. “

Pursuing Mental Health as a Catholic by Bishop James Conley https://jpiihealingcenter.org/pursuing-mental-health-as-a-catholic/ Thu, 23 May 2024 21:48:38 +0000 https://jpiihealingcenter.org/?p=48978

What We Need Now: Pursuing Mental Health as a Catholic

By Bishop James Conley


“Since my conversion to the Catholic Church in college, I have always known my total dependence on God, recognizing this as a defining feature of the human condition. I believed Jesus’ words, “Apart from me, you can do nothing” (John 15:5), but this truth became twisted with a lie. I had been raised according to the common American stereotype of the self-made man who solves every problem himself.”
