Understanding the Human Emotions with St. Thomas Aquinas

By Austin Habash, Host of the Summa in a Year podcast
November 4 3:00 PM ET

Join Austin Habash, founder of Think Catholic and host of the Summa in a Year podcast, for a live webinar exploring one of the most practical and overlooked areas of St. Thomas Aquinas’s thought: the human emotions.

In this session, Austin will walk you through:

• What the emotions are — how St. Thomas categorizes them and why they matter.

• What causes them — the inner movements of desire, fear, anger, joy, and more.

• How to remedy them — the path Aquinas gives us for ordering our passions toward virtue and peace.

This webinar will not only give you a clearer understanding of your own interior life and practical tools for spiritual growth, but it will also equip parish leaders with wisdom to better accompany parishioners who are struggling with emotional challenges, seeking healing, or striving to grow in virtue.

Come discover how the insights of a 13th-century Dominican can transform the way you live, love, and lead today.

Finding Holiness in the Everyday: Ministering to the Tired, Busy Suburban Dad

Tyler Blanski
November 11 3:00 PM ET

How can ministry leaders better reach the men who feel too busy, too tired, or too ordinary to see holiness in their everyday lives?

In this webinar, Tyler Blanski, author of Find Your Fight, invites you to rediscover fatherhood as a sacred calling rather than an obstacle to sainthood. With insight, humor, and deep pastoral wisdom, Blanski explores how ordinary moments—mowing the lawn, driving kids to practice, helping with homework, romancing your wife, and showing up at work—can become pathways to grace.

You’ll learn practical ways to help fathers encounter God right where they are and to awaken the spiritual potential hidden in the routines of suburban life.
