When Your Suffering Seems Too Much with Chaplain Fr. John Meyer
When Your Suffering Seems Too Much with Chaplain Fr. John Meyer

What do you do when you are suffering and want nothing more than to avoid it?

The holy mystery of “Jesus is the Garden” is the sacred blueprint to follow when what we are facing seems too much to bear.

Learn how to go to God, even in the times you want to run away.

This Lent, allow the Divine Physician to hold and propel you forward to new life.

Wrestle Close to Christ with Roxie Beckles of That Black Catholic Chick
Wrestle Close to Christ with Roxie Beckles of That Black Catholic Chick

"Quitting the Christian Life. It's Too Hard...."

This is the title of a YouTube video Roxie Beckles, "That Black Catholic Chick" filmed a year ago. Roxie awakened in the very early morning hours and was having a "dark night of the soul."

Roxie's depth of vulnerability about her personal struggle with the demands of an authentic Christian life was untouched before Roxie pushed "publish." The video has over 30K views. 

There is no mistaking that Roxie knows suffering.

In this Lenten podcast, Roxie revisits where she was at a year ago when she filmed this video. She then takes a deep dive into what she has learned from God ever since.

We can't be lukewarm in our Catholic faith--we must make a complete surrender and be "all in." This includes sharing barrenly about our struggles with our faith and wrestling close to Christ.

Roxie encourages listeners with this: If you aren’t wrestling in some way with your faith, you need to go deeper this Lent.

You can find Roxie on YouTube @thatblackcatholicchick or @TheologyOfFitness, as well as at https://www.roxiebeckles.com.

God Stopped Me from Leaving with Nicole Berlucchi of "Magnify Love"
God Stopped Me from Leaving with Nicole Berlucchi of "Magnify Love"

“You’re going to stay in this marriage.” This was the message Nicole Berlucchi heard from God.

Before this, Nicole was convinced she was doing most of the work at home and in her marriage. Her friends told her she was a “saint” for putting up with her husband. To top it off, Nicole’s husband was unwilling to go to therapy.

Nicole was sure God was on her side.

Nicole left her husband for four days to discern if she was going to leave him. While Nicole entered this time of discernment relatively certain she was headed for divorce, God made it clear that Nicole needed to change and give her marriage a chance.

Nicole engaged in a very difficult season of healing that resulted in the transformation of her heart and marriage.

Listen to this mini-retreat in a podcast in Mamas in Spirit’s Lenten Series: HEAL. Allow God to help you remove barriers to love and be loved.

Nicole Berlucchi is the author of “Magnify Love: Unlocking the Heart of Jesus in Your Marriage and Your Life.”

“Lindy’s guests, who I’m convinced are hand-selected through the gift of the Holy Spirit, bring to life the true meaning of love, surrender, redemptive suffering, triumph of the human spirit and a whole lot of grace! Lindy’s podcast is one of those that draws you closer to our Lord through the reflections of others. You will see yourself in the stories shared. You will see our Lord at work and you will intimately know his love through the words shared by your brothers and sisters in Christ. This podcast is a daily gift and for this, I give thanks to Lindy for hearing the call and for saying YES!”

“Lindy brings a unique mix of patient listening, thoughtful questions and heartwarming stories in each episode. The podcast feels so authentic, so genuine as she presents each guest- it doesn’t feel manufactured, as podcasts can often be. It’s more like attending a small, faith sharing group. After listening, I feel as enriched as if I’d been on a retreat. I’m grateful for her many guests who share vulnerably and for the conversational approach she brings to the show.”
— NDNU Spirituality
“The beauty of Mamas in Spirit is that it gives women and men a place to find that understanding they so look for when they are suffering. You want to be understood. Who better to understand you than somebody else who has been through something similar, so that you know you aren’t alone.”
— Elizabeth Abaray, Featured Guest Season 4 Episode 38
“This is a beautiful podcast! I am so inspired and left feeling God’s love through the vulnerable, heart-wrenching, and inspiring stories of these beautiful people. Lindy is a gem and the way she interviews people let’s their light shine and makes you feel like you are in the room with them. I am so thankful for this podcast! It makes me want to let Jesus love me more.”
