Podcasts about spiritual motherhood

While praying, Maddie de Aquino heard God speak to her heart as a young girl: "You are mine, and I am yours." Maddie thought she was being called to religious life. However, everything shifted when Maddie was 15 and her beloved mother passed away from a stroke. Consumed by anger, Maddie distanced herself from God. She could not have imagined how God would pursue her and transform her heart. Now, Maddie is a consecrated virgin. She has made a vow of perpetual virginity and offers her spiritual motherhood in service to the Church. In this Easter podcast, learn how to run to God, even amidst great sorrow. Maddie is a digital missionary and works under Monsignor Lucio Ruiz, Secretary of the Dicastery for Communications of the Holy See.

Welcome back to another episode of our podcast! Today, we're going to dive into a topic that is close to many women's hearts - motherhood and the role of spiritual mothers in our faith. You see, motherhood goes beyond just giving birth to a child. It extends to nurturing and guiding our children spiritually, and also having the opportunity to disciple and teach other women in the faith. In Titus 2, we learn about the importance of women discipling and teaching each other. It's a beautiful concept, really. We have the privilege of not only growing in our own faith, but also helping others grow in theirs. Imagine the impact we can have on the lives of those around us by sharing our wisdom and experiences! But it doesn't end there. We also explore the idea of guarding the deposit of faith. What does that mean? Well, it means that we have a responsibility to protect and preserve the teachings of our faith. And how do we do that? By looking up to other faithful people who have gone before us and are currently in our lives. These individuals serve as role models, guiding us in our journey and helping us pass on the faith to future generations. In 2 Timothy 1:5, Paul talks about Lois and Eunice, who left a powerful legacy. Their faith was so strong that it impacted not only their own lives, but also the life of Timothy, their grandson. Just think about it - their faith was testified about at least two generations later! This is the kind of impact we can strive for as spiritual mothers and disciples of Christ. So, join us today as we dive into these important topics. Let's learn from each other, be inspired by the examples of those who have gone before us, and strive to leave a legacy of faith that will continue to testify for generations to come.

Cassandra and Jillian chat with Mary Bruno all about Spiritual Motherhood and how to cultivate it. They discuss that because infertility exists, we can be confident that God has entrusted us with many avenues in which to be fruitful.

When we are in tune with spirit and with our own intuition, we are also sensitive to the fact that others might be as well. Sometimes those "others" are our own children. The tools we use may change according to what your personal experience is and what your children are experiencing.  There is no handbook to motherhood, but especially not when that child always seems like the "difficult" one or the one unable to handle day-to-day activities.  In this episode:  1.  The spiritually or energetically open child   2.

Motherhood can be tricky business, it is challenging and amazing and allows us to expand in ways we never thought possible. One of the tools that can also be used in motherhood is spirituality.

Western democracies are sloughing through the twilight of movement-building strategies built primarily from masculine emphases on quantification and scale, visibility and punchlines. Such impulses should not be cancelled. But it is worth opening our eyes to the role that spiritual mothers also play in nurturing the seedbeds of social change—gestations of relationship and wrestling that patiently nurture the quiet before. Joshua and Chelsea Bombino have written an essay on just this, and join Anne today to flesh out its charge.

Carina reflects on the spiritual journey of motherhood: a wild ride of love and joy, challenge and terror, bravery and hope.She reflects on the longing for another baby, the old wounds it has brought to the surface, the wide-open vulnerability that motherhood brings, and the opening of the heart that is required each step of the way.This is for the mothers, anyone who simultaneously longs for and hesitates to have another baby, the ones who long to be mothers and want more insight into the emotional and spiritual journey first, and those who care about mothers, their hearts, minds, and psyches.To connect more with Carina, you can find her at:www.carinadevi.com (for courses, 1-on-1's, blog, and more)https://higherself.earth (for private conscious community)https://www.instagram.com/carina.devi/ (Instagram)https://www.tiktok.com/@carina.devi (TikTok)...

Our guest today, Debbie Short, is not only a mother herself but has had the opportunity to be a “spiritual Mother” too many, many people throughout her life.  God has used this to teach Debbie how to help and encourage others to become all that God has called them to be. The Bible calls all of us to help others and allow others to walking besides us, keeping us sharp and focused on all God has for us.   God has given each of us things we can do help others and it is our job as fellow believers to come along side each other and be the family of God. We all need to do our part as Spiritual Mothers, Sisters, Daughters, and friends.   We hope you enjoy this episode as we dive into the concepts of Spiritual Motherhood and mentoring, and that it encourages you to take a step of faith and use all that God has given you to grow and encourage the Body of Christ!!

Sr Chiara Joan's community

"Grace builds on nature, so you have to know yourself first as a human being and then you can work on the spiritual stuff." This was advice that Sr. Joyce Bermejo, FMA, received as she journeyed through her faith life and heard the call to become a religious sister. Sr. Joyce spent a lot of her adolescent life in the service of others, and while she was in post-secondary she had plans to become a teacher. But the Lord took her desires and stretched them even more. On August 5, 2018, she made professions as a Daughter of Mary Help of Christians, also known as a Salesian Sister. in this episode, we follow Sr. Joyce on her faith and discernment journey, what drew her to the Salesian community, and how this vocation allowed for her to grow in the virtue of spiritual motherhood.Here are the show notes for this week's episode.Want to learn more about the Salesian Sisters?
