2 Jesus Girls

Did you know that one of the beliefs of Catholics is that Jesus is truly present in the Eucharist? His body, His blood, His soul, and His Divine Nature…all present in the Eucharist! Have you ever considered the Eucharist to be a healing balm to your emotional health? This is an invitation or rather an encouragement for us to receive Jesus in the Eucharist as often as we can. God is not looking for us to be perfect when we come to Him. He'll meet us where we are. Let's talk about our emotional health, how to find peace and strength, and understand that our faith is a journey and God loves us exactly where we are! _____________ Visit our website to learn more about Chris + Katie, 2 Jesus Girls®, and Awaken Your Faith.  Join our AYF Circle where we bring our community, programs, freebies, and content together in one place for you.  

Set a guard, Lord, before my mouth, keep watch over the door of my lips."

Join us for this conversation on how we can speak truth and light into the world by simply starting with our thoughts. _____________ Visit our website to learn more about Chris + Katie, 2 Jesus Girls®, and Awaken Your Faith.  Join our AYF Circle where we bring our community, programs, freebies, and content together in one place for you.  

We all need reminders to connect our day to God. The Angelus can be that daily reminder to call to mind God's love for us! This famous Catholic devotion recounts the message from the angel Gabriel to Mary announcing God's plan for her life. The theme throughout this prayer's history and usage is the number three. There are three antiphons, and three Hail Marys, and the prayer has been traditionally said three times a day (morning-6 a.m., noon, evening-6 p.m.) Most Church historians agree that the Angelus can be traced back to 11th-century Italy, where monks said three Hail Marys during night prayers, at the last bell of the day.  It is so easy to get caught up in our daily duties and obligations to the point where we forget about God altogether. We can almost always make excuses for why we are doing something particularly important at that moment. So pause, listen for those bells (or set your cell phone alarm), and learn how you can grow closer to God in our latest conversation. _____________ Visit our website to learn more about Chris + Katie, 2 Jesus Girls®, and Awaken Your Faith.  Join our AYF Circle where we bring our community, programs, freebies, and content together in one place for you.

Haan will introduce us to his favorite Saint, Josemaría Escrivá, and the profound impact he has had on his life.    Josemaría Escrivá, a Spanish priest who founded Opus Dei and developed a spirituality through which people can form personal friendships with God through their everyday lives in the midst of the world. We are all called to this holiness, and he says this in such a simple way. Anything that we are doing we can offer to God and he offers this call to holiness as an invitation. “Don't let your life be sterile. Be useful. Blaze a trail. Shine forth with the light of your faith and of your love.” (The Way, 1)   Sit back and enjoy this meditation on his life, and learn how his spirituality applies to all of us!  _______________________ Visit our website to learn more about Chris + Katie, 2 Jesus Girls®, and Awaken Your Faith.  Join our AYF Circle where we bring our community, programs, freebies, and content together in one place for you.

Humility is the virtue associated with The Beatitude, “Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven” (Matthew 5:3). Lord, I am not worthy…and I am so glad! This disposition of unworthiness is actually a beautiful place to be - it is Your strength Lord that we need. In God's eyes, we are enough. He wants to transform us! Let's look to God for everything we need spiritually, physically, and emotionally. We will find true joy when we in allow His strength to carry us. The more we grow in the virtue of humility, the more we are at peace and able to grow closer to God.  In this episode, we unlock the beauty of humility. Humility is the root and foundation of all other virtues since it is in humility that we become detached from our prideful will allowing us to become beautifully attached to God's perfect will! _______________________ Visit our website to learn more about Chris + Katie, 2 Jesus Girls®, and Awaken Your Faith.  Join our AYF Circle where we bring our community, programs, freebies, and content together in one place for you.
