Is there a connection between the coronavirus and the Coronation (or crowning of) the Blessed Mother and Jesus Christ Our King?  In this episode, Lisa discusses how to be physically and spiritually prepared for the virus, how it spreads, what symptoms to look for, and how we can protect ourselves.  But first, Lisa answers a difficult question posed by a listener who asked, "What should you do if your child chooses not to embrace Christianity?"  In today's Fashion Confession segment, Lisa shares her new discovery of Gathered & Sown (a brand that creates handcrafted leather goods, such as Bible covers) and offers a special $10 discount to listeners who checkout with the code "FASHIONEDBYFAITH."  The show concludes with a special prayer for the victims of the coronavirus, followed by the complete Sorrowful Mysteries of the Rosary.

Have you ever meditated on the significance of the type of trees that may have grown in the Garden of Eden? In this episode, Lisa suggests that they might give us further insight into the loving heart of Our Heavenly Father. Discussing the Tree of Life and the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil, Lisa makes the point that God wanted Adam and Eve to grow in virtue, to emulate his attributes, and to use their free will to love freely. But what happens when we use our free will to oppose God? Lisa discusses the fall of some of the angels, the cunning serpent that tempted Adam and Eve to doubt the goodness of God, the consequences of their sins, and how Our Heavenly Father had a plan for our redemption from the beginning. With a thorough discussion of the gifts and fruits of the Holy Spirit, Lisa makes the point that we have all we need to grow in virtue and concludes with a discussion of how the Eucharist is meant to strengthen us on this journey. The information about angels of which she speaks was gathered and taught by Dr. Mark Miravalle through a Lighthouse Catholic Media CD called "Angels Explained: What You Should Know About the Nine Choirs."

Today Lisa and Rachel finally finish their discussion of indulgences! Among other questions, they answer, "What if I don't feel the benefits of an indulgence? How can we know that the temporal effects of our sins have been mitigated?" They discuss Father Richard Heilman's book on building up a Holy Alliance in Heaven as we rescue the souls in Purgatory through indulgences. In addition, Lisa shares why she thinks plenary indulgences could be the solution to solving the problem of promiscuity in our culture, and she shares a letter she wrote to Pope Francis, asking him to consider granting a plenary indulgence to all women who have gone through childbirth.

Lisa and Rachel wish all of you a very merry Christmas!

Today Lisa and Rachel delve into the delightful topic of partial and plenary indulgences! What is it that we are indulging in? We are indulging in the endless ocean of God's mercy! Lisa and Rachel begin with the historical background of indulgences, dispel common myths about them, and surmise why they have been sadly de-emphasized by the Church in the last few decades. Lisa outlines the usual requirements to receive an indulgence, and together Rachel and Lisa explain how the "conditions" for an indulgence are to be understood as "spiritual strength conditioning" to develop a rock solid foundation in your interior life. They discuss how we can receive up to one plenary indulgence a day, how we can apply it to the soul of a deceased loved one if we'd prefer, and how there are 4 easy pious acts we can do every day to be open to this receiving!

In this episode, Lisa and Rachel share their thoughts on the sad reality of temporal punishment or the natural consequences of our sins. They speak about the mercy of Purgatory but contrast that with our ability to make amends NOW, through prayer, fasting, almsgiving, the spiritual and corporal works of mercy, accepting with patience the suffering of the ills of this life, directly apologizing to others, and doing all that we can to "make things right." Their lively conversation sets the stage for an introduction to indulgences. In this episode, indulgences are defined and in the next episode, we'll delve deep into the true understanding of what it means to indulge in God's mercy!

We don't want to harp on sin, but sin is a real thing in our lives, so we should talk about it, right?! Today Lisa and Rachel contrast God's Perfect Will to His Permissive Will for our lives. They discuss original sin as not trusting the goodness of God, and explain how Baptism gives us the gift of God's life within us! They define what sin is, discuss the degrees of sin as either venial or mortal, and explain how grace unites us to God! The episode begins with Lisa clarifying a few things from her previous solo episode, The Art of Dying Well. She defines the particular judgement, the final judgement, and the purpose of purgatory. Stay tuned for Part 2 of this episode, where Lisa and Rachel will joyfully answer the question of, "How do we get out of a state of mortal sin if we are in it?"

In this solo episode, Lisa shares her notes from a riveting presentation she attended recently, given by Father Arena on the "Art of the Dying Well." Lisa talks about how God designed us as souls enfleshed, how death is the separation of soul and body, and how it is truly a cosmic tragedy, resulting from sin being in this world. She shares how Our Lord has claimed death, broken its power, and now uses it to bring souls back to Himself, for now death is a remedy for sin instead of a punishment for it. Lisa speaks of the two powers of the soul being the will and the intellect, why we should pray for the souls in Purgatory, and how the saints in Heaven are perfectly united to the Body of Christ!

Join us in prayer as Lisa and Rachel pray the Joyful Mysteries of the Rosary, along with little baby Joey, whose gurgles and giggles mark this beautiful phase of motherhood that we are in! We thank Pond5.com and Eclipse Films for our royalty-free use of "Ave Maria," composed by Sebastian Bach, arranged for harp solo, and superimposed by Charles Gounod.

How should one select a Halloween costume and classify the decorations we see at this time of year? Do we reject the glamor of evil, like our Baptismal promises call us to? Today Lisa and Rachel discuss the images we see during this season as either natural, macabre, reverent, or a caricature. A new segment in this episode is the Fashion Confession, where Lisa and Rachel each come clean about something they've been hiding! And little baby Joey makes an unexpected appearance and brings on the laughter!

Can the virtue of humility get lost when we have fun dressing up? Can a well-dressed man evoke in a woman the feeling of being protected? In today's episode, Lisa and Rachel discuss the 5 levels of dress formality, reflect on generational differences, and ponder why today's culture is searching for so much comfort in their clothes. Could it be that we are lacking the comforts and joy that come from slowing down, engaging in authentic human interactions, and having an intimate relationship with God? Do we dress down more as a culture because we don't fully see our worth as children of God? And how should we dress for Mass, which is to be the most important part of our week? As we select our clothes, do we ponder the interplay between humility and dignity? Lisa and Rachel unpack all this and more!

Do we remember to clothe ourselves in virtue instead of just fabric? Rachel and Lisa have fun together, searching through Scripture to find out what it can teach us about clothes and the meaning behind them!

In this episode, Lisa and Rachel share how they clean their clothes (hello dirty laundry!) and how they try to cleanse their souls (on the regular!) with the mercy of God's continual forgiveness! The episode begins with a discussion of what fashion means to each girl personally and concludes with Holy Homework for the listener!

In this podcast episode, Rachel and Lisa discuss what is likely to be in the wardrobe closet of Our Blessed Mother, based on what she's been seen wearing in Church-approved apparitions!

In this bonus solo episode, Lisa will be discussing the current trends she's seeing on the runways of New York Fashion Week and the current trends she's seeing in our Catholic faith!
