About Opening Up The Tent
Men today know the value of discipline—whether it's in the gym or golf course or at work at the office, warehouse or boardroom. You push yourself, commit to the grind, and chase excellence. But when it comes to faith, why does sitting in a pew on Sunday feel like a passive, box-checking exercise instead of an adventure? That’s where The Monk and the Meathead steps in. Hosted by Jimmy Vreeland, a West Point grad, Army veteran, and successful entrepreneur who once thought he had it all—until he realized something was missing. And Fr. Craig Holway, a priest who doesn’t give weak answers or sugarcoat the truth tackling real questions from Jimmy and other busy men about purpose, leadership, discipline, and the hard truths of following Christ in today’s world in their marriages, families and life. Subscribe, send us your toughest questions, and get ready to step up. This is The Monk and the Meathead.

And so you have to take the doctrine of the Immaculate Conception, and it takes a little while. But Michael, if we did this, what we would be able to do is we would be able to draw a connection between the Immaculate Conception, Jesus's humanity, Jesus's divinity, the miracles, and the resurrection of the dead, the teaching of the apostles, the letters of St. […]
