It’s May! It’s Mary’s month — and the month we celebrate mothers! This episode of Among Women has it all! I share about some of my personal history with Mary both from my book, All In, and a recent article in Catholic Digest encouraging us to develop a better relationship with Mary, our spiritual mother.

Then enjoy a wonderful conversation with my friend and prayer buddy, Maria Morera Johnson, about devotion to Mary under the title of Our Lady of Charity, the patroness of Cuba. Maria’s latest book is Our Lady of Charity. Learn about the history and the symbols related to this Cuban story of faith, family, and Mary’s particular love for each of us — it will be worth your time!

Have you heard my shorter podcasts? They are called “Espresso Shots.”

Listen to Among Women Espresso Shot 34: Flowers at the Foot of the Cross

What’s that about?

It’s this: Growing in virtue takes day-by-day effort! St. Francis de Sales’ famous work Introduction to the Devout Life has been part of my spiritual reading for a long time! This short podcast shares his advice on how our practice of virtue — for the love of Jesus — can become as “flowers at the foot of the Cross.” Ooooh! Listen here.
