Catholic Fatherhood Is Under Siege: Train, Repent, and Take the Rule
⸻
Catholic fatherhood isn’t dying. It’s gasping.
On the floor. Alone.
No blood in the spine.
No fire in the lungs.
No rule in the house.
You were baptized into war.
But you were raised by cowards.
WHERE YOU STAND
You can’t explain the Creed
You won’t lead their wife
You whisper through the Rosary like it’s a tax
You don’t need another video.
You need a funeral.
For your softness.
WHAT IS THE MARIAN STANDARD?
This isn’t a brand.
It’s a reckoning.
This is a Rule.
A cruciform Rule of Life forged for men who:
• Lead their wives
• Train their sons
• Bury their sins in the sacraments
⸻
Forged in the fire of:
• The Eucharist
• Marian discipline
• The Carthaginian saints: Moses the Black. Monica. Augustine.
Not clean saints.
Scorched saints.
THE THREE CORE WOUNDS
1. You were never taught doctrine.
Just platitudes. Half-truths. Soft voices.
2. You were formed by porn.
Not penance. Not purity. You carry secret rot.
3. You were never taught to lead.
You react. You defer. You flinch. You do not rule.
WHERE DO YOU START?
You don’t “start.”
You repent.
You take the hit.
You eat the dirt.
Then you stand up and train.
YOUR FIRST ORDER: TAKE THE ASSESSMENT
This is not a quiz.
This is a diagnostic strike.

• No fluff
• No praise
It will reveal where you are in the war—and what Rule you need to live by.

IF YOU DON’T ACT, YOUR HOUSE WILL ROT
Your parish won’t save you.
Your wife isn’t the leader.
Your men’s group isn’t a shield.
Your house is a monastery under siege.
You are the abbot. The commander. The steward.
No more silence.
No more deferral.
No more delay.
Take the hit. Take the test. Train.
