    RA #923: Trusting God When You’re Running on Empty

    What do the Wedding Feast at Cana and Romans 12 have in common? More than you might think. This week, we reflect on the gifts God gives us, how to discern and use them, and why trusting Him—especially when resources seem scarce—is key to a faithful life.

    RA #922: Confession Confusion
     

    Ever feel like something still lingers after confession, even when you know you’ve been forgiven? In this episode, Greg and Jennifer dive into the common struggle of reconciling God’s mercy with the need for purification. We wrestle with how grace, purgatory, and forgiveness play out in our lives—and even bring in a popcorn pot to help explain it. Join us for an honest conversation about faith, trust, and why the journey of forgiveness is often more complex than it seems.

    RA #918: Health Scare Aftermath

    "What Would You Do if Your World Turned Upside Down in an Instant?"

    In another deeply personal episode, we share how Jennifer's sudden health scare brought us face-to-face with mortality—and how faith, prayer, and the Rosary carried us through.

    From grappling with the spiritual battle of fear to reflecting on Memento Mori (“remember you will die”), we uncover powerful lessons about detachment, God’s grace, and living with trust in His plan.

    This episode isn’t just about survival—it’s about the life-changing impact of faith during life’s most uncertain moments. Whether you’re Catholic, curious about the faith, or just looking for inspiration, you’ll find hope and encouragement here.

    ADV #526: How we (sort of) Got Our Groove Back

    *** Want to watch the video version? Click here! ***

    After a three-month break filled with prayer, we’re back with renewed focus. From countless rosaries to reflections on aging (thanks, Tom Brady and Forrest Gump), we’re learning new ways to bring value. Big changes are coming: a renewed focus on parishes, a possible podcast name change, and shorter, mission-focused episodes. Join us as we rediscover the excitement of Rosary Army’s mission—"Make Them. Pray Them. Give Them Away."
