Rebuilding Family, Faith, and Farming in America

Beef prices are rising while ranchers struggle—and most Americans don’t understand what’s really happening.In this episode of Regiment of the Cross, I sit down with Michael Thomas, Director of the Catholic Land Movement, to discuss the consolidation of the beef industry, the challenges facing family farms, and why more families are looking for a different way forward.We explore how modern systems have created disconnection—from land, from community, and even from purpose—and why movements like the Catholic Land Movement are gaining traction across the country.This conversation goes beyond agriculture. It’s about faith, family, and reclaiming a way of life rooted in responsibility, ownership, and community.Topics Covered:Why beef prices are high but ranchers are strugglingThe impact of consolidation in agricultureWhat the Catholic Land Movement is and how it worksWhy families are returning to the landHow veterans and families are finding purpose through farming and homesteadingIf you’ve ever felt like something is missing in modern life, this conversation may resonate with you.#FamilyFarms #FaithAndWork #CatholicLife #Homesteading #Veterans
