Family Show 11/24/2023 - Hoping for Emannuel This Advent

Is prayer asking God for everything we want and then, if we want it enough or believe enough or are good enough, or if God’s in the right mood, getting it?  Or is prayer finding peace in the presence of the One who loves us most?  If this Advent what you hunger for is a hope that could never leave your side, then come light a candle with Eleanor, Brenda, and Randy as they seek to shed light on the God whose love longs to pierce your poorest, darkest places so He raise them up to Heaven.

Dating has become a job in and of itself, and with the current state of our culture, what hope is there for single Catholics still looking for their happily ever after? Today I’m chatting with Julianne Bartlett, a Catholic writer and lawyer who experienced prolonged singleness to share with us how she maintained hope, survived the holidays with nosey family members, and eventually found her prince charming.

A few weeks ago, we started a conversation spiritual director Chris Wood on stress, worry and overwhelm, but we didn’t get to finish. We had split into two episodes to fully do it justice, and its finally time to get to part two. Today we’re going to dive deeper and talk about what unhealthy levels of stress, worry and overwhelm look like, when we should consider seeking the assistance of medication, and tactile ways we can improve our stress levels naturally.

SHOW DESCRIPTION:

 

Merriam Webster dictionary defines a vocation as “a summons or strong inclination to a particular state or course of action, most notable a divine call to the religious life or the work in which a person is employed, their occupation.” Today marks the beginning of National Vocations Awareness week, and we have the honor and privilege of speaking with Bishop Timothy Senior, twelfth bishop of Harrisburg and former rector of St. Charles Borromeo Seminary to help us fill in the gaps of what it means to be called to a vocation, how the journey can look different for everyone, and how we can support those discerning a call to religious life.

Family Show 11/3/2023 - A Mind Like Solomon’s or a Heart Like God’s?

Did you ever wonder, “If King Solomon was so wise, why did everything in his life, everything in his world, ended up so messed up?”  Did you ever wonder how King Solomon ended up insisting, “Vanity of vanities, vanity of vanities, all is vanity”?  Did you ever wonder if King Solomon had it all to do over, would he have asked God for a heart that loved like God’s instead of wisdom?  If you’re feeling ready to chuck all the vanities for the eternal embrace of love, then circle up with Eleanor, Brenda, and Randy as they ponder the pursuit of the God whose Heart is already irreversibly intertwined with yours.

Candid Catholic Convos 10-29-2023 Hijacked Holy Day

Candid Catholic Convos 10.29.23

 

SHOW DESCRIPTION: 

 

Halloween has long been associated with spirituality, the dead and the occult, and I only recently learned some of my fellow Christian friends don’t participate in Halloween because of this. Christians and non-Christians alike are convinced of Halloween’s pagan origins, and with the abundance of violence, gore, sensuality, occultism, and demonic aspects now associated with Halloween, it’s hard not to. But is Halloween a pagan holiday or is it a hijacked holy day? Today we welcome back Father John Szada, our Diocesan exorcist with a PhD in psychology to answer all our spooky questions.

SHOW DESCRIPTION:

 

Infertility affects both men and women, physically and emotionally. The worst part though, was feeling isolated, like we were in a desert alone, searching for an oasis that others had been able to find, but we couldn’t. Today, I’m honored to share the microphone with Ann Koshute, co-founder of Springs in the Desert, to share with us her journey to this much-needed ministry and advice for couples currently in a season of infertility.
