Correction on bible verse mentioned:

John 20:22-23 is the verse where Jesus breathes on the disciples and gives them authority to bind or loose sins. (I think I mentioned James Ch 3.)

Generation Z is the most lonely, anxious, self-harming generation ever. This is directly linked to the phones in their pockets and the lack of good old-fashioned play. Drawing from two books that changed me as a parent, Mat and I discuss what kids need to learn resiliency.

In this episode, Maeve has to set the record straight...We are not lushes! We just drink a lot. It's hard not to while parenting in this suffering world. Find encouragement in the hard times and inspiration from two of the greatest women ever to live, the Blessed Virgin Mary and Mother Teresa of Calcutta.

"If I ever become a Saint--I will surely be one of "darkness." I will continually be absent from Heaven--to light the light of those in darkness on Earth." -- Mother Teresa of Calcutta

Episode 36

Published September 22, 2024

The Seven Sorrows of Mary, also known as the Seven Dolors, are events in the life of Mary that caused her great sorrow. The Seven Sorrows are:

• The Prophecy of Simeon
• The Flight into Egypt
• The Loss of Jesus for Three Days
• The Carrying of the Cross
• The Crucifixion of Jesus
• Jesus Taken Down from the Cross

According to a pious tradition, the Blessed Virgin Mary grants seven graces to those who honor her by meditating on her sorrows and saying seven Hail Marys, one for each Sorrow. These graces include:

• Peace for their families
  
  
• Enlightenment about the divine Mysteries
  
  
• Consolation in their pains
  
  
• Accompaniment in their work
  
  
• Fulfillment of their requests, as long as they do not oppose the will of God or the sanctification of their souls
  
  

The devotion to the Seven Sorrows of Mary unites the suffering of the faithful with that of the Blessed Mother.

They're calling it the "Spirit of the Age," acedia. AKA Sloth, the deadliest of the seven deadly sins. The opposite of Sloth is magnanimity. Let's be magnanimous in all we do! Let's make sure our kids know the significance of Mass so we can combat the spiritual youth exodus. We talk about that and creative curriculum ideas, such as unit studies, literature-based history lessons, and the value of immersive learning experiences like educational road trips and field trips.
