Episode Synopsis

AMDG. Do you struggle to pray the rosary deeply or even to pray it at all? Chews Life founder and author of The Way of The Rosary Shannon Wendt discusses how she went from not praying at all to praying the rosary every day. After a series of tragic pregnancy losses, Shannon found herself in a crisis of faith. Out of her crisis came reconversion, and Shannon was inspired to create a product to help busy parents to embrace the rosary in their daily life. Shannon wants everyone to know that praying the rosary is worthwhile, “even if it’s messy and imperfect.”
