Elliott shares his inspiring journey with his wife, blending creativity and craftsmanship to create a rosary-making business that has deeply touched countless families. He recounts personal stories they've received, from a soldier's rosary to a wedding-bound bride in need of a last-minute repair. These rosaries have become tangible connections to prayer, family, and tradition. Elliott also reflects on his role as a wrestling coach, where the St. Joseph cord fosters commitment and chastity in his athletes.
How do young professionals live their Catholic faith in the workplace? In this inspiring episode, we sit down with Jose Rodriguez, Director of Outreach, and Greg Buccola, Board Chair, from Young Catholic Professionals (YCP) Louisville. They share personal conversion stories, discuss integrating faith into daily work, and explore how YCP builds community, fosters virtue, and equips laypeople to sanctify the secular world. From the power of invitation to the struggles of work-life balance, this conversation is packed with wisdom and practical insights, plus a few laughs and heartfelt moments along the way.
In this episode, we explore the gift of fertility and God's plan for marriage and family life with Angela Hobbs, a wife, mother of ten, registered nurse, and Marquette Method-certified natural family planning instructor. She shares her personal story of love, loss, and trust in God's providence, including the beauty and challenges of NFP, raising a large family, and the healing power of redemptive suffering. We talk candidly about Church teaching, fertility awareness, and how NFP can help both in achieving and avoiding pregnancy.
It's been over two years since Roe v. Wade was overturned, so what now for the pro-life movement? In this episode, we're joined by Stuart Hamilton, Pro-Life Activities Coordinator for the Archdiocese of Louisville. Stuart shares his personal journey of faith, his experience in youth and campus ministry, and how the Church is responding to crisis pregnancies and building a culture of life in a post-Roe world.We explore the evolving mission of the pro-life movement, the importance of evangelization and education, and initiatives like Walking with Moms in Need and the Kentucky March for Life. Stuart reminds us that being pro-life is not just about changing laws; it's about changing hearts and offering hope, support, and love to those in need.
