In Our Friend Faustina: Life Lessons in Divine Mercy, Michele and Emily have assembled an extraordinary collection of essays by modern women, all joined by their common friendship with one extraordinary person: St. Faustina Kowalska (1905-1938), the Secretary and Apostle of the Divine Mercy. Sharing tales of ordinary and extraordinary graces with wit and laughter, these faith-filled women explain how St. Faustina has loved them, mentored them, and inspired them to live with mercy toward all. With a foreword by acclaimed author Susan Tassone, this collection will help introduce you to a friend for life (and afterlife!) in extraordinary, ordinary St. Faustina.

Alexandria Marrow is a theology-teacher-turned-SAHM, who now focuses on writing. Most of her work is poetry and short fiction. Like Lindsay, she is a contributing writer for Ever Eden Literary Journal. (Check out our interview in Season One with Ever Eden publisher, Amy O’Connell.)
Her quote was her mother’s favorite line:
“Goodness is the only investment that never fails.”
These words from Henry David Thoreau take us into virtue, truth, goodness, and the struggle against contemporary relativism, and lead us back to the hope we have in the power of beauty.
Listen in and be inspired!

Episode #60: On our journey to heaven, we need to strengthen our spirits so we can do our very best to receive the very best that God wants to give to us. This means choosing to be fully on the side of Jesus, not being lukewarm Christians who mix the ways of the world with the ways of Christ. In this episode, Terry Modica uses scriptures to explain the big difference that happens when we are hot for the Lord, living in the fire of the Holy Spirit, working hard to become the saints that God the Father created us to be.

The Catholic Man Show - Catholic Spiritualities (Part 2)
Monday Feb 03, 2020
Monday Feb 03, 2020

Carmelite, opus dei, salesian, and vincentian
If you enjoyed this episode of The Catholic Man Show on Catholic Spiritualities and are looking to protect your family from the dangers of the internet, go to Covenant Eyes and use promo code “Catholicman” for a 30-day free trial of keeping your family safe.
We are looking for a few men who are taking their faith seriously.
If you enjoyed this episode with our wives then join us on Patreon: Extra content, great thank you gifts, exclusive access to Adam and David, private FB page, and much more.
Carmelite
Motto – Zelo zelatus sum pro Domino Deo exercituum – “With zeal have I been; zealous for the Lord; God of hosts”
Do you feel like the attachments of day-to-day life get in the way of your relationship with Christ? Do you feel called to live a life of asceticism? Do the writings of St. John of the Cross and St. Theresa of Avila speak to you in a special way?
Interior journey – search for God inside of oneself.
meditation on the word of God, liturgy, silence and solitude, and asceticism.
Carmelite spirituality proposes silence and solitude as necessary pre-requisites for prayer and contemplation.
Not only exterior silence but interior silence as well. This is why solitude is important
An emphasis in seeing suffering as part of God’s plan for our own sanctification
“Dark night”
Also St. Therese of Lisieux
Opus Dei
Motto – Opus Dei – the work of God
Officially the “Prelature of the Holy Cross”
Are you convinced that holiness is found in boardrooms and lunchrooms as well as chapels and churches? Consider the way of Opus Dei.
Founded in Spain in 1928 by St. Josemaria Escriva. The guiding principle behind the movement is that holiness is attainable by everyone, and ordinary life is the way to sanctity.
According to John Cloverdale, law professor at Seton Hall University and author of “Uncommon Faith, The Early Years of Opus Dei (1928-1943)”
Three points characterize Opus Dei:
First, a stress on integrating the secular into one’s spiritual life, rather than seeing everyday life as a problem to be overcome, it is part and parcel of where we are to sanctify ourselves.
“Second, an emphasis on work, understood broadly, as the whole range of activities, seen as a path to sanctity. [God] wants us to do it well and offer it to him. The first step is to do it and do it well.
“Third, a very strong stress on the reality of being sons and daughters of God that gives an optimistic and positive tone to love. God really does love us and is concerned about each of us.”
Salesian
Motto – Da mihi Animas cætera tolle – “Give me souls, take away the rest”
Are you a people person who experiences God most in acts of gentleness, compassion, and optimism?
The Salesians were founded by St. John Bosco is honor of St. Francis of DeSales.
Much like the Opus Dei, Salesian spirituality is one for the everyday life. A unique emphasis of the salesian spirituality is an outward disposition of humility, gentleness, civility, and optimism.
HUMILITY – living in self-truthfulness about who we are, both positive and negative
Humility leads us to GENTLENESS towards our neighbor. Because one is so aware of his or her own needs and weakness, one extends to another person similar understanding and compassion.
CIVILITY and RESPECT must mark the behavior of a truly “gentle” devout Christian.
Because we have a Savior, we are always OPTIMISTIC.
Vincentian
No motto associated with it, but the Missionaries of Charity are the most well know (at least in this country) and their motto is Caritas Christi Urget nos – The charity of Christ urges us
Do you feel an attraction to the corporal works of mercy? Especially works of service for the poor?
St. Vincent teaches us to see Christ in the poor and suffering, so much so that the poor become our Lords and Masters and we their servants. Vincentian spirituality is centered around this concept. Jesus said “Whatever you did for one of these least brothers of mine, you did for me.” (see Matthew 25: 34-40).
