Ep 162 - Exodus 90: Train Like a Saint - Join St. Michael's Lent and Reclaim Your Soul

Men, the battle is here. In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Jared Staudt from Exodus 90 to issue a bold call: prepare for spiritual war through St. Michael’s Lent, starting August 15th.

Your marching orders have arrived. 

We dive deep into the origins and spiritual power of St. Michael’s Lent, a 40-day Catholic challenge inspired by the great St. Francis of Assisi and rooted in ancient tradition. Learn why this penitential season is critical for men today, how the Exodus 90 team has structured it for modern warriors, and why discipline, order, and sacrifice are the weapons we need now more than ever.

You’ll learn the why behind each discipline and how each is crafted to bring order to your soul, sharpen your spiritual edge, and strengthen your mission as a man of God.

We discuss:

• The spiritual and psychological warfare men face today
• The demonic hatred of order and how discipline drives demons out
• The role of St. Michael the Archangel in exorcisms and daily spiritual combat
• Why rest, leisure, and celebrating the Lord’s Day are battle strategies, not indulgences
• How true fraternity unlocks spiritual breakthroughs men cannot achieve alone

Challenge Issued in this Episode:
Step into the breach. Find a fraternity. Get the app. Sign up for St. Michael’s Lent. Offer your disciplines for your family. Wake up at 2 a.m. and pray like the Desert Fathers. Let your body rest and your soul fight. The Church needs men who are ready. Are you one of them?

Key Takeaway:

Order is a weapon. Demons hate structure. Your disciplines form a spiritual perimeter. Build it. Guard it. Live it.

Three Powerful Quotes from the Episode:

1. “When you wake up in the night and everyone else is asleep, you're not breaking off from work or putting your phone down — you're just entering right into prayer.”
2. “We're not called to suffer pointlessly. Every act of self-denial must have a purpose — for God, for your wife, for your children, for your brothers.”
3. “Saint Michael didn’t negotiate with evil. He cast it out. Men today need that same fire in their hearts.”
