    S19 E5 - Sacred Elements: Clay
    Oct 26 2026
    In this episode, we begin a three part series about different elements found in Scripture and today focus on the Potter and clay in Jeremiah. God is constantly forming us, meeting us in the ordinary moments of life and inviting us to trust that His hands are always shaping and building us up. We reflect on how being unfinished is not the same as being abandoned, the ways we can become more open to the Lord's work in our hearts, and how even difficult seasons can reveal the growth He is bringing about in us. The image of the Potter and clay invites us to bring our wounded and unfinished places to the Lord, trusting in His desire to restore us with great care. Heather's One Thing - 2026 Hallow Summit Sister Miriam's One Thing - Her Pilgrimage to Medjugorje Michelle's One Thing - UNC vs Chapel Hill Game and the Holy Name of Jesus Cathedral in Raleigh Journal Questions: What does the Lord want to reveal to us in the ordinary moments of our lives?Where do you notice God's fingerprints in your life?In what areas of your life do you feel unfinished? What areas of my life am I hiding from the Lord or others?Where in your life are you struggling to see good fruit? Discussion Questions: How is the Lord shaping you in this season?How is the Lord holding you in your brokenness?Where in your life are you trying to do too much without God's help?What empty promises are you believing? Quote to Ponder: "Let us hold on firmly to this basic principle of Catholic cosmology: The devil doesn't have his own clay. All he can do is take God's clay—all of which is "very good" (Gen 1: 31)—and twist it, distort it. The good news is that Christ came into the world to untwist the clay that sin and the devil twisted up. While our understanding of eros is badly in need of rehabilitation, the good news, as papal preacher Raniero Cardinal Cantalamessa reminds us, is that Christ has "come to save the world, beginning with eros, which is the dominant force." (Eating the Sunrise: Meditations on the Liturgy & Our Hunger for Beauty by Christopher West) Scripture for Lectio: "The word that came to Jeremiah from the Lord: "Come, go down to the potter's house, and there I will let you hear my words." So I went down to the potter's house, and there he was working at his wheel. The vessel he was making of clay was spoiled in the potter's hand, and he reworked it into another vessel, as seemed good to him. Then the word of the Lord came to me: "Can I not do with you, O house of Israel, just as this potter has done?" says the Lord. "Just like the clay in the potter's hand, so are you in my hand, O house of Israel."" (Jeremiah 18: 1-6) Sponsor - Pink Salt Riot: What if instead of listening to the voice in your head telling you you're not enough (spoiler alert: that's a lie!), you could embrace the truth? So many of us love Jesus and still carry worry, fear, and the quiet sense that we're falling short. We know what God says about us, but by Monday afternoon the lies can feel louder than the truth. Pink Salt Riot creates meaningful Christian jewelry and gifts designed to inspire faith and joy in everyday life. From wearable reminders of God's love to thoughtful gifts that speak to the soul, our products empower Christians to fight the lies of the culture and live rooted in God's Truth found in His Word. Meet TruthBands. Our elastic TruthBand bracelets feature fun designs on one side and powerful declarations or Scripture quotes on the other, like "Jesus Help Me to See Myself the Way You See Me" and "Surrender it all. Lay down control and let God." They're comfortable enough to wear every day and easy to stack with your favorite pieces. Every glance at your wrist becomes a moment to pause, pray, and abide in Him, carrying your faith from Sunday into the rest of your week. Something for everyone you love.

  • S19 E4 - Living Organically & Humanly in an Artificial World

    S19 E4 - Living Organically & Humanly in an Artificial World
    Oct 19 2026
    In this episode, we talk about what it means to live an authentically human life in an increasingly digital world. Technology is reshaping the way we live and it affects more than just how we work and play. We reflect on how our thoughts, relationships, and emotions are being influenced, and why we need to be intentional about making space for real, human connection. We share how beauty, creativity, and wonder draw us out of an artificial reality and remind us of the goodness of being human. We also offer practical ideas for finding balance with technology, learning to savor rather than simply consume, and allowing the Lord to rightly order our lives. Heather's One Thing - Humanality's Digital Detox Program Heather's Other One Thing - Ave Maria Press and Spoonful of Comfort Sister Miriam's One Thing - Therese of Lisieux: Secrets of Joy by Fr Pierre Descouvemont Michelle's One Thing - Ella Langley Shirt from her friends in Auburn and Farmers Markets Journal Questions: What am I giving my attention to?Where do I need more human formation?How can I create more separation from my phone?What boundaries do I need with technology? Discussion Questions: What does it look like to interact with technology and not be dominated by it?How is the Lord inviting you to engage your humanity?How have you given into fear about the state of the world?How is God inviting you to live more intentionally? Quote to Ponder: "The deeper a soul is bound to God, the more completely surrendered to grace, the stronger will be its influence on the form of the Church. Conversely, the more an era is engulfed in the night of sin and estrangement from God the more it needs souls united to God. And God does not permit a deficiency. The greatest figures of prophecy and sanctity step forth out of the darkest night." (Edith Stein) Scripture for Lectio: "I keep asking that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the glorious Father, may give you the Spirit of wisdom and revelation, so that you may know him better." (Ephesians 1:17) Sponsor - Camp Wojtyla: Are you looking for a transformative experience for your middle school or high school student?

  • S19 E3 - Living Liturgically

    S19 E3 - Living Liturgically
    Oct 12 2026
    In this episode, we reflect on how to integrate the rhythms of the liturgical year into our everyday lives. We talk about the different graces available to us in each liturgical season, and how by living these seasons year after year, we are slowly being taught how to thrive. We also reflect on the value of our attention, what it means to be human, and how sacramentals can help call our attention back to God. Living liturgically is not simply another thing to do, but an invitation to become the women God created us to be. Heather's One Thing - Catholic Artists Sister Miriam's One Thing - All Our Abiding Together Sponsors Michelle's One Thing - Brie and Cheddar Beer Soup Other Resources Mentioned: Ascension 2027 Planner Journal Questions: How is the Lord inviting me to embrace liturgical living?Who is the Mother Church inviting you to become in our season of Ordinary Time?What have I been meditating on in daily life and how can I savor the Gospel?Is there somebody or something that has taken God's place at the center of my life? Discussion Questions: How do the Church's liturgical rhythms and practices differ from how you live your life?What holds your attention throughout the day?What would it look like to embody the rhythms of the Church?What's one way you'd like to embrace liturgical living in this season? Quotes to Ponder: "All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us." (J.R.R. Tolkien, The Fellowship of the Ring) "Some believe it is only great power that can hold evil in check, but that is not what I have found. It is the small everyday deeds of ordinary folk that keep the darkness at bay. Small acts of kindness and love." (J. R. R. Tolkien, Hobbit Movie) "The word "liturgy" originally meant a "public work" or a "service in the name of/on behalf of the people." In Christian tradition it means the participation of the People of God in "the work of God." Through the liturgy Christ, our redeemer and high priest, continues the work of our redemption in, with, and through his Church." (CCC 1069) Scripture for Lectio: "For everything there is a season, and a time for every matter under heaven." (Ecclesiastes 3:1) Sponsor - Rooted for Good: Radiant Skincare. Wholesome Living.
