Catholicism 101: Forever Learning and Living the Faith
Learning the Catholic Faith is a lifelong process. For many of us, it may have had a rocky start from a lack-luster classroom experience, being a disinterested student, or a lack of exposure to the teachings of the Faith. Catholicism 101 is here to fill in the gaps from your Religious Education experience as well as serve as an aid in your lifelong learning of the Faith. Not only will we talk about WHAT the Church teaches, but WHY she teaches it. Hopefully along the way we will find ourselves falling deeper into the heart of Christ as we learn more about His heart for us.
"Always be ready to give an explanation to anyone who asks you for a reason for your hope." 1 Peter 3:15

E29: Motherhood as a Path to Sainthood (with Sara Gipson)
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
How does a mother learn to trust God when she cannot protect her children from every struggle, mistake, or suffering?
How does thirty years of family life slowly reveal God’s presence in both the joys and the hidden sacrifices?
Join us for this month’s episode of Catholicism 101 as I sit down with my own mom, Sara Gipson, to reflect on motherhood, faith, and the quiet ways God forms us through the ordinary and the unexpected; drawing us little by little toward holiness.

“Motherhood is the means towards sainthood—not only our own personal sanctity, but also that of our husband and children… The vocation of a mother is a slow process toward developing a virtuous life. The vices that encompass self-satisfaction are gradually stripped away through motherhood. This is not a quick process, and often women go through this spiritual growth kicking and screaming. Not in the sense of rejecting responsibilities, but in giving up our selfish nature and putting our faith in God first as Our Lady gave her fiat.” From Catholic Mom (Holy Cross Family Ministries)
