Quote Me - Claudia Cangilla McAdam
Tuesday Feb 22, 2022
Tuesday Feb 22, 2022
Season Four comes to an end with a delightful interview with Claudia Cangilla McAdam, a Catholic award-winning author of books for kids and teens. She has an undergraduate degree in English, is a graduate of the Denver Catholic Biblical School, and obtained her master’s degree in theology from the Augustine Institute in Denver. She has authored two dozen books, and her faith-based titles, ranging from picture books to young adult novels, explore the virtues, build character, and deepen faith. Her most recent work is the Biblical historical fiction novel, Beckoning, published by Our Sunday Visitor. Through her books, Claudia hopes that young readers come to learn, love, and live the Catholic faith.
Claudia’s quote comes from Michelangelo in 1562 (when he was eighty-seven years old!):
"Ancora imparo. (I am still learning.)”

Quote Me - S4 E12 Kelly Guest
Tuesday Feb 08, 2022
Tuesday Feb 08, 2022
We’re happy to welcome Kelly Guest to the show!
Kelly has been blessed with many opportunities to share God's love. She was a Dominican Sister of St. Cecilia in Nashville, TN for five years, a middle school social studies teacher, an education coordinator for a Catholic Charities program for pregnant teens, and a Director of Religious Education. Currently she is a youth minister for her home parish of St. Bartholomew's, and a mommy blogger at CatholicMom.com and at her own website, nun2nine.com. Her greatest opportunity (and challenge), though, is being the mother of nine wonderful children and the wife to one great guy. She has also been blessed by God to be the author of Saintly Moms: 25 Stories of Holiness, published by Our Sunday Visitor.
Her quote comes from Pope Francis, in Gaudete et Exsultate.
"Do not be afraid of holiness. It will take away none of your energy, vitality, or joy. On the contrary, you will become what the Father had in mind when he created you, and you will be faithful to your deepest self."
Connect with Kelly on her website, nun2nine.com, and on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram. Kelly Guest on Facebook; @nun2nine on Twitter and Instagram
Make sure to grab your copy of Saintly Moms: 25 Stories of Holiness! Each chapter is a quick and encouraging read.

Quote Me - S4 E11 James Matthew Wilson
Tuesday Feb 01, 2022
Tuesday Feb 01, 2022
It’s a joy to spend time in this episode with James Matthew Wilson, poet and director of the MFA program in creative writing at the University of Saint Thomas, the only MFA program in the world rooted firmly in the Catholic intellectual and literary tradition.
His quote comes from Aristotle’s The Metaphysics, opening of Book I:
“All men by nature desire to know. An indication of this is the delight we take in our senses; for even apart from their usefulness they are loved for themselves; and above all others the sense of sight. For not only with a view to action, but even when we are not going to do anything, we prefer seeing (one might say) to everything else. The reason is that this, most of all the senses, makes us know and brings light to many differences between things.”
Here’s a quick list of the books Dr. Wilson recommends starting with, as you ask yourself what it means to stare into the light (affiliate links):
Plato, The Symposium
Plato, Meno
Aristotle, The Metaphysics (just first two pages)
St, Augustine, Confessions
Dante, The Divine Comedy
Connect with Dr. Wilson at jamesmatthewwilson.com, and be sure to check out his books (The Strangeness of the Good, Including Quarantine Notebook is a good place to start). Look out for his newest book, Praying the Nicene Creed, which is slated for release March 11, 2022.

It is a joy to welcome Eniola (Eni) Honsberger to the show. Eni serves as the Director of the Office of Family Life for the Diocese of Paterson, and recently launched a relationship coaching endeavor, Espouse.

Quote Me - S4 E9 Leah Jacobson
Tuesday Jan 18, 2022
Tuesday Jan 18, 2022
After a bit of a hiatus, we are thrilled to be back with Leah Jacobson, founder and CEO of The Guiding Star Project, International Board Certified Lactation Consultant, and author of Wholistic Feminism: Healing the Identity Crisis Caused by the Women’s Movement. Leah lives in Central Minnesota with her husband, Josh, and seven children.
Her quote comes from Edmund Burke (we think; that attribution is contested), and was painted on the wall of her high school psychology classroom:
“The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing.”
A couple other quotes we discuss in this episode are from St. Teresa of Calcutta:
“I do not pray for success; I ask for faithfulness.”
“We have the obligation to speak the truth but we don’t have to convince anyone.”
and St. Augustine:
“The truth is like a lion. You don't have to defend it. Let it loose. It will defend itself.”
Leah also mentioned the film, The Business of Birth Control.
Connect with Leah at www.guidingstarproject.com and get a copy of her book at www.lumenpress.org.

Quote Me - S4 E5 Emily Stimpson
Tuesday Oct 19, 2021
Tuesday Oct 19, 2021
Today we welcome Emily Stimpson Chapman, Catholic author, wife, and mother to three (three and under). Her quote comes from the letters of Flannery O’Connor:
"I suppose half the work of writing is overcoming the revulsion you feel when you sit down to it."
This reluctance can be a reality in all our callings, whether it’s writing, parenting, or something totally different. Listen in to consider the “adult voice” we need to have in our heads if we want to follow Christ faithfully.
You can find Emily on Instagram (@emilystimpsonchapman), on Substack, and at TheCatholicTable.com.
Her book, Letters to Myself from the End of the World, is one of the best things I’ve read this year (or ever?). Grab your copy here.

We’re delighted to spend time with Dominic de Souza, founder of DreamAgain and SmartCatholics, and a dad with a small family and a smaller corgi.
Tolkien is a popular choice this season (and we’re not complaining!). This quote comes from his essay “On Fairy-Stories”:
We have come from God and inevitably the myths woven by us, though they contain error, will also reflect a splintered fragment of the true light, the eternal truth that is with God.
Here’s the movie Dominic mentioned: Arrival.
