“You're going to stay in this marriage.” This was the message Nicole Berlucchi heard from God. Before this, Nicole was convinced she was doing most of the work at home and in her marriage. Her friends told her she was a “saint” for putting up with her husband. To top it off, Nicole's husband was unwilling to go to therapy. Nicole was sure God was on her side. Nicole left her husband for four days to discern if she was going to leave him. While Nicole entered this time of discernment relatively certain she was headed for divorce, God made it clear that Nicole needed to change and give her marriage a chance. Nicole engaged in a very difficult season of healing that resulted in the transformation of her heart and marriage. Listen to this mini-retreat in a podcast in Mamas in Spirit's Lenten Series: HEAL. Allow God to help you remove barriers to love and be loved. Nicole Berlucchi is the author of “Magnify Love: Unlocking the Heart of Jesus in Your Marriage and Your Life.”    

Love to hear from you; “Send us a Text Message”This is a supplement and interim update: How to face the overwhelming moral complexities of our time. Join Jack and navigate this challenging landscape, drawing inspiration from the prophecy of the "last great battle" over marriage and family as articulated by Sister Lucia of Fatima.

You will need courage and your intellect as you prepare for spiritual battles and find the path to peace and joy amidst life's present chaos.1.    Spiritual Formation:   a.  3 Simple Morning Solution to combat evil!

Generation Z, especially young men, are awakening to a world that is off-kilter. We dive into the societal pressures and spiritual battles they face, offering practical resources through Claymore and essential practices to find truth and peace amidst the storm of moral relativism. You'll discover how Jesus's steadfast mercy and the transformative power of a personal relationship with Christ can guide you towards your true purpose and value.Step into a new morning routine designed to arm you for the spiritual battlefield of daily life. We'll walk you through a three-part ritual that begins with prayer and the support of the Blessed Mother, turning temptations into opportunities for growth and peace.

In this episode, we welcome Fr. Mark-Mary Ames, CFR to talk about his podcast Rosary in a Year. He shares the inspiration behind his podcast and the importance of meditating on and understanding the mysteries of our faith. We also reflect on prayer being something received not produced, how the Rosary specifically answers the cry of our hearts to learn how to pray, and how Mary intercedes for us within this prayer. Our desire is that Fr. Mark-Mary's podcast will be an aid as you take the next step deeper in your prayer life.   Heather's One Thing - Instant Pot Creamy Tomato Basil Soup Recipe  Heather's Other One Thing - Sharing the Gospel with Our Lives: A Relational Approach to Catholic Youth Ministry by Bob Rice Sister Miriam's One Thing - Creamy Chicken Rice Soup Recipe  Michelle's One Thing - The Franciscan Friars of the Renewal Fr.

Do I see prayer as something I produce, or something I receive?   Discussion Questions: How were you formed in how to pray the Rosary? What obstacles do you experience when praying the Rosary? What do you desire for your relationship with Our Blessed Mother? How can I enter more fully into the Rosary during this Jubilee Year of Hope?   Quote to Ponder: "Mary was the first person to take the 'way' to enter the Kingdom of God that Christ opened, a way which is accessible to the humble, to all who trust in the word of God and endeavor to put it into practice."

Read OnlineMerry Christmas! Our Advent preparations have been completed, and we are now invited by our Lord to enter into the glorious celebration of His birth!How well do you understand the awe-inspiring mystery of Christmas? How fully do you comprehend the significance of God becoming a human, born of a virgin? Though many are quite familiar with the beautiful and humble story of the birth of the Savior of the World, that familiarity can have the surprising negative effect of keeping our intellect from deeply probing the depths of the meaning of what we celebrate.Notice the last line of the Gospel passage quoted above: “And Mary kept all these things, reflecting on them in her heart.” What a beautiful line to ponder this Christmas day. Mother Mary was the one person who would have understood the mystery of the birth of her Son, the Son of God, the Savior of the World, far more deeply than anyone else. It was to her that the Archangel Gabriel appeared, announcing her pregnancy and His birth. It was her who carried her Son, the Son of God, in her Immaculate womb for nine months. It was to her that Elizabeth, her cousin, cried out, “Most blessed are you among women, and blessed is the fruit of your womb” (Luke 1:42). It was Mary who was the Immaculate Conception, the one who was preserved from all sin throughout her life. And it was her who gave birth to this Child, carried Him in her arms and nursed Him at her breast. Our Blessed Mother, more than any other, understood the incredible event that had taken place in her life. But, again, the Gospel above says that “Mary kept all these things, reflecting on them in her heart.” One thing this tells us is that even Mary, the Mother of Jesus and the Mother of God, needed time to ponder, reflect and savor this most holy mystery. She never doubted, but her faith continually deepened, and her heart pondered the unfathomable and incomprehensible mystery of the Incarnation.Another thing this tells us is that there is no end to the depth of the “pondering” to which we must commit ourselves if we want to enter more deeply into the mystery of the birth of the Son of God. Reading the story, setting up a nativity scene, sharing Christmas cards, attending Mass and the like are central to a holy celebration of Christmas. But “pondering” and “reflecting,” especially during prayer and especially at the Christmas Mass, will have the effect of drawing us ever deeper into this Mystery of our Faith. Reflect, today, with our Blessed Mother. Ponder the Incarnation. Place yourself into the scene that first Christmas. Hear the sounds of the town. Smell the smells of the stable. Watch as the shepherds come forth in adoration. And enter the mystery more fully, acknowledging that the more you know about the mystery of Christmas, the more you know how little you actually know and understand. But that humble realization is the first step to a deeper understanding of what we celebrate this day.Lord, I gaze at the wonder of Your birth. You Who are God, the Second Person of the Most Holy Trinity, God from God and Light from Light, became one of us, a humble child, born of a virgin and laid in a manger. Help me to ponder this glorious event, to reflect upon the mystery with awe and to more fully grasp the meaning of what You have done for us. I thank You, dear Lord, for this glorious celebration of Your birth into the world. Jesus, I trust in You.Source of content: catholic-daily-reflections.comCopyright © 2024 My Catholic Life! Inc.

****TOP 2.5% GLOBALLY-RANKED PODCAST**** Opening Bible verse: Luke 2:6-7 Nearly 90% of Americans say the holidays come with some increase in stress levels. As moms, I believe we are the ones feeling the bulk of this stress. The pressure we put on ourselves to make sure everyone is happy, everything is perfect, that we create magical memories with our kids and we capture everything to ensure it is Instagram worthy.  At this time of year we often hear, "The first Christmas was simple, let's keep this Christmas simple." Was the first Christmas really that simple?  In today's podcast episode I talk about how that first Christmas was probably a little stressful for Our Blessed Mother. Yet, there is much for us to learn from this Bible passage about what she teaches us at this stressful time of year. Tune in to hear how you can relieve the pressure of the holidays with decluttering this one thing.  Join the private Facebook group for women who also listen to Pruning to Prosper here: Facebook Group Not on social media?

The season of Advent is a time to reflect on the many graces God gives us. One of these is the gift of the Miraculous Medal, also known as the Medal of Our Lady of Graces, which Our Blessed Mother revealed first to St. Catherine Labouré and is now a devotion embraced by millions of Catholics all over the world.

***Top 2.5% Globally Ranked Podcast*** Opening Bible verse: Luke 1:39-43 How excited was Elizabeth to open her front door and see her cousin, Our Blessed Mother, standing there! Both women had a miracle to share with the other.  Why do friends/neighbors stop over? Is it to share good news? Bring a hot meal? Share in your sorrow? Bring kids for a playdate? Perhaps, they are just lonely and looking for a new friend. Don't let clutter stop you from all these joys of friendship.

Fr. Daniel Alloy, FSSP has served as Parochial Vicar at Regina Caeli Parish in Houston, Texas since July of 2022. He was ordained in June of 2020.     In Today's Show What roles exist in the church for women who cannot become a wife or a mother? Where in the Bible does it say that we need to get along? My baptized Catholic cousin is getting married, but the service will be held at the venue rather than a church. Am I permitted to attend? Jesus said that He did not come to bring peace, but a sword. What does that mean for Catholics? Is overthinking considered a sin, and if so, venial or mortal? What is the proper way to show reverence for the Holy Trinity and Our Blessed Mother when the names are said in the liturgical celebration? What are your thoughts on the parable of “The Lost Sheep?” May a Deacon provide the sacrament of Confirmation or does it need to be performed by a priest to be valid? May a Deacon provide any sacraments? What are the "must-know" things for every Catholic? What are the guidelines for use of yoga and meditation to relieve stress for health purposes? What should we as Catholics be doing to help Christians who are being persecuted in Ukraine? Should we be contacting Congress? What can, or should, we do to help from afar? Recently, Pope Francis was quoted as saying he was not blessing homosexual couples, he was blessing 2 people who loved each other. Is this possible in a homosexual relationship in light of the Catholic view of "love?" How do you get delivered from something you feel is so demonic and tormenting that everywhere you turn you seem to hit a brick wall and you're always going around in circles? Please explain the State of Grace. If you cannot get to confession immediately because perhaps the Church has a schedule that is not fitting your need, do you need to, or should you, pray the Hail Mary prior to the Act of Contrition?   Visit the show page at thestationofthecross.com/askapriest to listen live, check out the weekly lineup, listen to podcasts of past episodes, watch live video, find show resources, sign up for our mailing list of upcoming shows, and submit your question for Father!

Jesus came to "cast fire upon the earth," yet the danger of lukewarmness is always lurking. We do well to heed the words of Our Blessed Mother at Cana, and do whatever Christ tells us. This meditation is the third of seven meditations we are posting during Lent from a retreat by Father Timothy Uhen. During Lent, we seek a deeper love of God and neighbor through prayer, self-denial, and charity. The aim of these Lenten meditations is to help us, through Jesus, to gaze upon the glory of God and to realize that his kindness is a greater joy than life itself.

The greatest mass conversion of people to Catholicism occurred through the intervention of Our Blessed Mother.

In 1858, 14 year-old Bernadette encountered a mysterious and beautiful woman while out gathering wood. Over the coming weeks and months, Bernadette paid many visits to this woman, later revealed to be Our Blessed Mother, at her request. Years later, Lourdes has become known as a place where the miraculous can occur, with some of those who drink the water from the spring at the site undergoing remarkable healings!

The Catechism of the Catholic Church states that: Before Christ's second coming, the Church must pass through a final trial that will shake the faith of many believers. In this powerful presentation, Deacon Harold explains how the antichrist deception has already begun to take shape in the world. However, we know that death does not have the final say. Deacon Harold proclaims that this is not a time for wimps or cowards. Our Blessed Mother assures us that if we dedicate ourselves to prayer and make a serious effort to live the Truth of our faith, then strengthened by Christ's Body and Blood in the Blessed Sacrament of the Eucharist, we can overcome the weakness of sin and break the hold that Satan has on us that prevents us from becoming the people that God wants us to be.  ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Browse Great Resources: https://store.parousiamedia.com/ Join the Parousia mailing list at: https://www.parousiamedia.com/mailing...

So they went in haste and found Mary and Joseph, and the infant lying in the manger. When they saw this, they made known the message that had been told them about this child. All who heard it were amazed by what had been told them by the shepherds. And Mary kept all these things, reflecting on them in her heart. Luke 2:16–19Merry Christmas! Our Advent preparations have been completed, and we are now invited by our Lord to enter into the glorious celebration of His birth!How well do you understand the awe-inspiring mystery of Christmas? How fully do you comprehend the significance of God becoming a human, born of a virgin? Though many are quite familiar with the beautiful and humble story of the birth of the Savior of the World, that familiarity can have the surprising negative effect of keeping our intellect from deeply probing the depths of the meaning of what we celebrate.Notice the last line of the Gospel passage quoted above: “And Mary kept all these things, reflecting on them in her heart.” What a beautiful line to ponder this Christmas day. Mother Mary was the one person who would have understood the mystery of the birth of her Son, the Son of God, the Savior of the World, far more deeply than anyone else. It was to her that the Archangel Gabriel appeared, announcing her pregnancy and His birth. It was her who carried her Son, the Son of God, in her Immaculate womb for nine months. It was to her that Elizabeth, her cousin, cried out, “Most blessed are you among women, and blessed is the fruit of your womb” (Luke 1:42). It was Mary who was the Immaculate Conception, the one who was preserved from all sin throughout her life. And it was her who gave birth to this Child, carried Him in her arms and nursed Him at her breast. Our Blessed Mother, more than any other, understood the incredible event that had taken place in her life.But, again, the Gospel above says that “Mary kept all these things, reflecting on them in her heart.” One thing this tells us is that even Mary, the Mother of Jesus and the Mother of God, needed time to ponder, reflect and savor this most holy mystery. She never doubted, but her faith continually deepened, and her heart pondered the unfathomable and incomprehensible mystery of the Incarnation.Another thing this tells us is that there is no end to the depth of the “pondering” to which we must commit ourselves if we want to enter more deeply into the mystery of the birth of the Son of God. Reading the story, setting up a nativity scene, sharing Christmas cards, attending Mass and the like are central to a holy celebration of Christmas. But “pondering” and “reflecting,” especially during prayer and especially at the Christmas Mass, will have the effect of drawing us ever deeper into this Mystery of our Faith.Reflect, today, with our Blessed Mother. Ponder the Incarnation. Place yourself into the scene that first Christmas. Hear the sounds of the town. Smell the smells of the stable. Watch as the shepherds come forth in adoration. And enter the mystery more fully, acknowledging that the more you know about the mystery of Christmas, the more you know how little you actually know and understand. But that humble realization is the first step to a deeper understanding of what we celebrate this day.Lord, I gaze at the wonder of Your birth. You Who are God, the Second Person of the Most Holy Trinity, God from God and Light from Light, became one of us, a humble child, born of a virgin and laid in a manger. Help me to ponder this glorious event, to reflect upon the mystery with awe and to more fully grasp the meaning of what You have done for us. I thank You, dear Lord, for this glorious celebration of Your birth into the world. Jesus, I trust in You. Source of content: catholic-daily-reflections.comCopyright © 2023 My Catholic Life! Inc.

11/29/23 - In September of 1956, Our Blessed Mother appeared for the first time as Our Lady of America. Today we'll discuss her requests and whether or not we've followed through with them. Would we be in a different spot today if we had lived as she intended?

Explore the deep maternal love of Our Blessed Mother as she leads us into a profound connection with the Lord Jesus. How does the Rosary pave the way for a deeper love and service to Christ? Share your thoughts in the comments!—Morning Offering with Fr. Kirby, October 30, 2023—————————Every morning, join Father Jeffrey Kirby as he begins the day with prayer and reflection. In a few short minutes, Father Kirby guides you in prayer, shares a brief reflection grounding your day in the Church's rhythm of feast days and liturgy, and provides you with the encouragement necessary to go forward with peace and strength. Let us do as the saints urge and begin our days in prayer together so as a community of believers we may join the Psalmist in saying, “In the morning, Lord, you hear my voice; in the morning I lay my requests before you and wait expectantly.” (Psalm 5:3-4)

“This is a story God wrote.” God planted a seed in Kim's young heart to accompany and care for the sick and dying as an adult.  Kim was raised in a family in which the members surrounded one another in all the joys and sorrows of life, including death. She didn't realize until adulthood that this was not every person's experience. As a hospice nurse it broke Kim's heart that there were so many people poor and dying who had nowhere to go. With the help of Saint Edward Church in Nashville, TN and others who shared in her desire to help the poor and dying, Kim created "The Heart of Mary House" to love God's children during their final days as Our Blessed Mother would want.  

When Rosemary Thérèse Robinson (affectionately known as “Rosie") was diagnosed with childhood cancer, her five older siblings returned home to support her. Little did they know that Rosie would not only carry her own cross of suffering, but would help carry theirs and their parents' crosses, as well. Rosie never complained. She laughed and loved with her family and retreated to the quiet of her bedroom when in pain. She also wrote letters to God. These letters were so filled with the faith and joy reminiscent of Saint Thérèse that they moved the heart of a local Dominican nun to nickname Rosie “The Little Flower of Nashville.” Listen to Rosie's sister Hayley share about the gift of Rosie, as well as the witness of her parents as they accompanied their beloved daughter as she prepared to go home to Jesus at just 19. This is a witness of the bonds of a family deeply rooted in prayer, faith and the supernatural love of God. But it is most of all the story of a young girl who reflected Our Blessed Mother as she said, “Let it be done to me according to thy word.” 

Today John, Sam, and our guest, Gabriel Castillo, discuss the captivating journey from being an MTV trained sinner of the world to becoming an on-fire Catholic evangelist with over 20 Million video views online. From his early days of mocking Catholicism while attending St. Thomas University to a moment of divine revelation during Adoration, where he heard inexplicable things and was moved to tears, his life took an unexpected turn. Yet, he continued to grapple with living a sinful lifestyle and trying to be a holy Catholic man. It was a chilling demonic encounter that finally pushed him to seek redemption through confession, sparking a profound conversion. We then explore how to live a life aligned with Christ's teachings, the power of devotion to Our Blessed Mother to guarantee success in life, and becoming an instrument of Grace in the world. Drawing inspiration from the lives of saints like St. Maximilian Kolbe, St. Teresa of Avila, St. Francis de Sales, St. Louis de Montfort, and many others, you will be sure to learn a lot about prayer, devotion to Our Lady, and how to handle the tough challenges of life with peace and joy.
