In this episode I interview my friend, Madelyn. I first explain how I met Madelyn on the due date for my second son. Madelyn is a Catholic doula who made me feel very empowered. She tells her story growing up as a cradle Catholic with divorced parents. Madelyn explains how she found support and healing through the Catholic Church. She also shares other interesting insight having Fr Mike Schmitz as her campus chaplain and working briefly with Dr Gianna Emmanuella.ResourcesFr Mike SchmitzBible in a yearhttps://m.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLeXS0cAkuTPqFMtZQ379qdEmcfxO1SvXcCatechism in a yearhttps://m.youtube.com/@TheCatechismInAYearAscension presents videoshttps://www.google.com/search?q=fr+mike+schmitz+videos&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&hl=en-us&client=safariHomilieshttps://www.google.com/search?q=father+mike+schmitz+homilies&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&hl=en-us&client=safariSt Gianna and Pietro Molla Homehttps://sgpmollahome.com/Life Giving Woundshttps://www.lifegivingwounds.org/BooksThree Secrets to Holiness in Marriage by Dan and Amber DematteThese Beautiful Bones by Emily StimpsonWomen Who Run With The Wolves by Clarissa Pinkola EstesUntie the Strong Woman by Clarissa Pinkola EstesThe Genesis of Gender by Abigail FavalePodcastsPints with AquainasFreely RootedMade for This App and book by Mary HasselmenFree Birthhttps://www.freebirthsociety.com/God loves you and created you. You're precious, unique and unrepeatable. He wants to be in a relationship with you forever and he's got a plan for your life. The bad news is that due to sin we were separated from God and our human nature was weakened. That means our intellect was darkened. Our wills became weak and sin became attractive. The consequence of sin became eternal death in hell. But the good news is that God's, Jesus became man. Atoned for our sins by dying on the cross, and rose from the dead for our salvation. We receive the Holy Spirit and this gift of salvation when we put our faith in Jesus, repent of our sins, get baptized and become his disciples. Finally Jesus established the Catholic church to teach with his authority, to empower us with his grace, and to bring us back to life if we commit a deadly sin.
