Raising Saints: Helping Kids Hear God's Voice

Today we are brainstorming and sharing some ideas and suggestions for entering into Advent.

Today we are sharing some positivity - we discuss what are we thankful for during the time of Covid

Today is a heavier episode, and we are discussing a very important topic - how to help our young people and children so that they don't become a part of the growing group of "former Catholics." Specifically, we discuss the following questions: How do we communicate to our children why they should stay in the church? And if they do stay, how do they sustain their faith in the midst of a culture that is so hostile to religion?

Today we answer two questions from 8 year old Patrick: If God knows everything and knows what we are going to do, do we really have free will? If God wants you to be a priest, do you have to do it? --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast.  https://anchor.fm/app

Welcome back!!! We are so excited to be back with you for season 3!!! In this episode we are talking about the domestic church, what that is and means. We briefly discuss the experience of practicing the faith during the pandemic. Also, all this togetherness can sometimes bring strife within the family, so we are sharing our thoughts on how to handle sibling rivalry situations. And this leads nicely into a discussion about how to raise siblings to be lifelong friends and support each other. Throw in some good old Fr. Connolly and Alexandra tangents, and we have the season 3 premiere!

Today we are wrapping up the season before the summer with some random questions about the hosts. Can Fr. C wear shorts and sneakers when it's hot? What are some of our favorite Bible stories? How did the Sullivans introduce their children to prayer?
