Welcome back for Season 5! In this episode, Sr. Miriam, Michelle, and Heather kick off the new year by discussing the concept of a "word of the year", a word given to us by God to help shape our heart, mind, and direction for 2019. They each share what they believe God has spoken to them for this year, how to cultivate it, and how we can listen to the voice of God and His guidance. Visit <a href= "http://www.ascensionpress.com/abidingtogether" rel= "nofollow">www.ascensionpress.com/abidingtogether</a> to subscribe to the shownotes and receive them in your email every Monday!

If you don't have one, how might you make room for God to speak to you about this coming year? 2) What practical things do you need to help this word take root and bear fruit in your life? 3) How could this be fruitful in your spiritual life? 4) What struck you from this week's podcast? Journal Questions: 1) What does God want you to know through that word right now? 2) If you don't have a word of the year, what is happening in your heart when you think about the concept? 3) How will you make room for your word of the year from God? Quote to Ponder: "We must learn to live each day, each hour, yes, each minute as a new beginning, as a unique opportunity to make everything new. Imagine that we could live each moment as a moment pregnant with new life. Imagine that we could live each day as a day full of promises. Imagine that we could walk through the new year always listening to a voice saying to us: "I have a gift for you and can't wait for you to see it! Imagine!" - Henri Nouwen Scripture for Lectio Divina - Isaiah 61:1-3 "The spirit of the Lord God is upon me, because the Lord has anointed me; he has sent me to bring good news to the oppressed, to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and release to the prisoners; to proclaim the year of the Lord's favor, and the day of vengeance of our God; to comfort all who mourn; to provide for those who mourn in Zion— to give them a garland instead of ashes, the oil of gladness instead of mourning, the mantle of praise instead of a faint spirit. They will be called oaks of righteousness, the planting of the Lord, to display his glory."

S05 Episode 01: Word of the Year

The Catechism we are reading follows the structure of the Apostles’ Creed with frequent references to the Nicene Creed for further details and explanations. Together, these Creeds aid us in articulating the beliefs we share with all members of the Catholic Church. Fr. Mike discusses why St. Ambrose refers to the Creed as “an ever-present guardian” and “treasure of our soul.” He encourages us not to take this gift for granted. Today’s readings are Catechism paragraphs 193-197.

This episode has been found to be in conformity with the Catechism by the Institute on the Catechism, under the Subcommittee on the Catechism, USCCB.

Day 27: The Gift of the Creed (2025)

Discover how the early Christians prayed with purpose, power, and perseverance. Drawing from their lives and teachings, this guide reveals how to deepen your daily conversation with God, develop a consistent rhythm of prayer, and grow in gratitude and devotion through the sacraments—especially the Eucharist. Learn how to pray without ceasing, what blocks grace, and how Our Lady, the saints, and Scripture all shape a truly Catholic life of prayer.

Praying Like the Early Church | eBook

In this episode, we discuss the nature of God, “who” God is, beginning with God the Father. Our reading explains how the Creed begins with God the Father because he is the first Divine Person of the most Holy Trinity. God is one Divine Being made up of three persons, and his identity is a deep mystery. Fr. Mike explains that God is a single ‘what’ made up of three ‘who’s.’ Despite this mystery, God is not an anonymous force. He has revealed himself to us by making his name known to us, and he has thus made himself accessible. Today’s readings are Catechism paragraphs 198-204.

Beyond Words: What ChatGPT Can't Say | Jane Sloan Peters

In this episode, we conclude our conversation on motherhood focusing on the feminine genius of maternity. We speak about how to grow in spiritual maternity to allow new life and lasting fruit to come forth through us. We discuss the need to continue to allow others to mother us, as well as the importance of showing up for ourselves and tending to our own needs. We revisit the ideas of abiding in the Lord and living a right-ordered life in community in order to live our vocations as mothers. We pray this week you would bring forth the life God desires to birth in you. Sister Miriam's one thing - Prayer from Mother Mary Francis "Our Lady is a home where people are helped to be what they can be, to grow to the maturity for which God has destined them. Like her, the family is called to be a place where someone helps me to rise when I stumble. Always a hand reaches out to sustain me, and my hand goes out to help the stumbling one. All these appellations that the Church heaps upon Our Lady show her as both homemaker and the home. When we are homemakers, we are ourselves a home. We must be all these things to one another: a lookout tower, a place of beauty, a refuge, a help, a strength and a consolation. Let us be engaged more earnestly than ever before in being homemakers. Despite the word being used in a somewhat condescending term in our time, to be a homemaker is the greatest glory of woman. It is essentially the mission of the Church, the Bride of Christ. She is the home and the homemaker. She is the home for us all. Our Lady is essentially the first physical home of God himself, and always our home. We must strive to make a home for one another: a home of peace, of love, of worship, and of focus on God."

This spiritual maternity is the core of a woman's soul. Wherever a woman functions authentically in this spirit of maternal pure love, Mary collaborates with her. This holds true whether the woman is married or single, professional or domestic or both, a Religious in the world or in the convent. Through this love, a woman is God's special weapon in His fight against evil. Her intrinsic value is that she is able to do so because she has a special susceptibility for the works of God in souls — her own and others. She relates to others in His spirit of love." - Edith Stein Scripture for Lectio Divina - "The word of the Lord came to me, saying, "Before I formed you in the womb I knew ] you,before you were born I set you apart; I appointed you as a prophet to the nations." - Jeremiah 1:4-5 This episode is sponsored by Scapulars.com! <a href="https://scapulars.com/">Scapulars.com</a> is proud to offer the most durable and comfortable scapulars in the world.

S11 E06 Mother Part 4: Communion in Motherhood

Fr. Mike explains why it was important to take a census at different points of the people of Israel in the Old Testament. We also learn that the Tribe of Levi is the only tribe that doesn&#39;t get an inheritance of land, because they&#39;re receiving something much greater. Today&#39;s readings are Numbers 26, Deuteronomy 27, and Psalm 111.

Day 73: Inheritance of Land (2024)

Welcome to the official start of the Bible in a Year Podcast! We&#39;ll begin reading the Bible in the episode &quot;Day 1: In the Beginning&quot;, but before we dig into scripture, Jeff Cavins joins Fr. Mike Schmitz to lay out the context for the Early World period (Genesis 1-11). They discuss the type of scripture we&#39;ll encounter (Hebrew poetry) and how that affects our understanding of the Word. This episode is not part of the 365 day reading plan, but is important to help understand the readings from this period.

Mysteries of the Eucharist

God draws people to himself and makes them his own. The Catechism shows us what makes God’s people different from everyone else, and what it is that unites them. Fr. Mike hones in on what exactly it is that the People of God do, and exhorts us to start doing that right here, today. Today&#39;s readings are Catechism paragraphs 781-786.

Taking the Cure at Yale: From Aquinas to Rahner and Back | Archbishop Augustine DiNoia, OP

Jeff has a PSA for you: one of our most amazing God-given abilities is our ability to smile, and the more we smile, the happier we&#39;ll be. In this episode, Jeff shows how Scripture and science support each other when it comes to this amazing God-given ability, and he challenges you to give everyone you meet today a genuine smile!<a rel="payment" href="https://ascensionpress.com/products/support-ascension">Support The Jeff Cavins Show (Your Catholic Bible Study Podcast)</a>

Smiling, the Exercise of Happiness

We continue our examination of the Sacrament of Baptism, specifically how we celebrate the sacrament and the different elements that must always be present in Baptism. Fr. Mike emphasizes that while infant Baptism has become the “form in which this sacrament is usually celebrated,” post-baptismal formation and instruction is necessary in order for the full flowering of the graces received in the Sacrament of Baptism. Today’s readings are Catechism paragraphs 1229-1233.

This episode has been found to be in conformity with the Catechism by the Institute on the Catechism, under the Subcommittee on the Catechism, USCCB.
