Why we pray.

Why we pray.

Today I talk about the importance of prayer, how it helps us form a relationship with God, and how through prayer we ask for the graces we need to become the saints we are meant to be. A little bit more on the topic of prayer. This one was very helpful when coming up with today’s episode.https://youtu.be/abBZBt-Mjdk?si=uMCNDgMEcEdHRCBT [https://youtu.be/abBZBt-Mjdk?si=uMCNDgMEcEdHRCBT] Useful tips on how to pray better.https://youtu.be/1UPIvsvWcUc?si=tlQqOLFlauyN963y [https://youtu.be/1UPIvsvWcUc?si=tlQqOLFlauyN963y] This is helpful when you don’t know where to start with prayer.

All about the Eucharist

Today I will be talking all about the Eucharist and why you believe what we believe about the Eucharist, even though we can’t fully understand it. At the end of this episode, I encourage you to go to Eucharistic adoration at least one day this week if possible, because I also talk about the importance of spending time in front of Jesus in the Eucharist. Here are some videos with Father Mike Schmitz that go a little more in depth on some of the things talked about today. https://youtu.be/AzqLMZ1x0zM?si=asFe-hBk1LIfo4gl [https://youtu.be/AzqLMZ1x0zM?si=asFe-hBk1LIfo4gl] https://youtu.be/UQPTfyxZLKI?si=_2xDRTLFeFJQhyI_ [https://youtu.be/UQPTfyxZLKI?si=_2xDRTLFeFJQhyI_]

The First Prayer You Ever Learn

Today we will be discussing the sign of the cross, which is the first prayer most likely learned. I got this information from Ascension’s new podcast, Mass in a Month: https://link.ascension-app.com/qJ1T7DMxx3b Note: the Mass in the Month podcast can only be found on the Ascension app. It is included in their free content, so you don’t have to pay for a subscription to listen to it.
