From Abuse to Restoration with Lisa Martinez of Little with Great Love

Lisa Martinez was incredibly anxious and fearful as a child, but neither Lisa nor her parents understood why.

When Lisa attended her freshman year of college at Franciscan University—a place Lisa and many others refer to as a "field hospital” for souls—Lisa discovered why she had been consumed by such angst and fear.

Lisa experienced flashbacks of sexual abuse as a young child. She finally knew what she had been carrying.

Listen as Lisa takes us on a sensitive journey of the soul, culminating in Christ’s miraculous healing through prayer, contemplation, EMDR therapy, Catholic retreats and more.

If you or someone you love is the victim of abuse, know that healing is possible! Learn more about Lisa at www.littlewithgreatlove.com (http://www.littlewithgreatlove.com). Reach out to get connected to resources at mamasinspirit@gmail.com.

Let it Be for Christ with Abby Davis

Abby Davis received a call. Within thirty minutes of hanging up the phone, there was a social worker on her front porch holding a baby girl.

Abby and her husband would care for this little girl for many months to follow, not knowing if they would adopt her or just care for her for a little while.

Abby’s heart was filled with love for this precious child, yet was also breaking at the possibility of being separated from her.

Abby would rock the baby and pray:

“Whether you stay or whether you go, let it be for Christ.“

This little girl, as well as two boys, are now the adopted children of Abby and her husband Cameron.

Listen to this mini-retreat in a podcast and imagine how your life can be more fully for Christ, too.

Lord, Teach Us How to Think with Fr. Jon Meyer, Mamas in Spirit Chaplain

Chaplain Father Jon Meyer was in his early twenties when his mother passed away.

In his grief, Father Jon faced the dark thought of needing to earn love, as well as the fear of being unloveable.

Father Jon was in the seminary at the time and chose to be honest about the thoughts he struggled with. He shared with his Spiritual Director and Formation Advisor, as well as some family and close friends. Over time, Father Jon was blessed with the transformation of his mind by God.

This podcast will help you explore your own thoughts and how they may be separating you from self, God and others. Learn tools of transparency and vulnerability to open yourself to the glorious “renewal of your mind" (Romans 12:2).

Proclaiming God's Love in the Rain with Tammi McCarthy of Whispers of Love and Faith

As Tammi McCarthy sat at Mass and listened to the Parable of the Prodigal Son, God revealed to her that she was the person in the story she didn’t want to be: the older brother.

God whispered into Tammi's heart:

“You have sat at my banquet table for years and you have dined on my abundance, but you have never invited anyone to dine with you.”

Tammi made a commitment that day to invite others to prayer and relationship with Christ. Yet Tammi didn't know that even when her life became difficult, she would still be called to share the love of Christ with others.

Tammi would learn to "stand in the rain and profess God's faithfulness soaking wet."

Listen to this podcast and be inspired as you hear this story of God as the Way Maker!

Should Our Faith be So "Heady?" with Ellie Hiller

While Ellie Hiller was raised in a beautiful home of faith and memorized Scripture, she wondered if her faith should be so much in her head. Something was missing.

Until God converted her heart.

When Ellie’s husband became Catholic and they lost their shared non-denominational practice, Ellie struggled. She armored herself in defensiveness and even listened to Matt Fradd’s podcast “Pints with Aquinas,” just so she could gain intellectual ammunition to defend her non-denominational viewpoints.

Only God changed her.

Ellie was touched by Saint Pope John Paul II's Theology of the Body, the Sacraments and physicality of the Catholic faith.

Listen to this joy-filled podcast and allow God to help you move out of your head and into your heart, too.

God's Love is Waiting for You with Rachel Balducci

Rachel Balducci shares her personal journey with the parable of The Woman at the Well from the Gospel of John.

Jesus waits for us in the ordinariness of our lives and offers us living water of eternal life. When we choose to trust God and drink of this water, God heals, transforms and sets us free.

Rachel reminds us that prayer is not for God to love us more. Prayer is for us to experience the love that is already there waiting for us, just like how Jesus waited for the woman at the well.

You Don't Have to Check Off Boxes to Be Loved

Karianna Frey felt like she had to check off boxes and change part of her identity to be truly Catholic and loved. Yet in Adoration God revealed to Karianna that He and His love are so much bigger than the ways we box Him in.

Karianna also explores how we box others in stemming from fear. However, it is in embracing our discomfort and reaching out to people different than us that we grow to learn our interconnectedness as God's human family.

Karianna's newest book is We are Beloved: 30 Days with Thea Bowman.
