Recently, Christina sat down to speak with Karen and Curtis Herbert of Themelios Coaching. We had crossed paths during a business networking event hosted by The Unstoppable Entrepreneur, and our common business coach, Kelly Roach, and as soon as we met, I knew that I needed to have them on the Say Yes to Holiness podcast because of the phenomenal work they are doing with women, particularly moms.

Here is the latest addition to the Connections Between Faith and Daily Life series on the Say Yes to Holiness YouTube channel! This week, Christina shares about How To Transform Your Pain and Suffering According to the Mandalorian (and Jesus!) . This is a subject that consistently is being raised in our world, but especially now in the midst of the COVID pandemic. This also shares a little bit of one of my favorite pastimes–to see and hear the “seeds of the Word” (thanks, Bishop Barron for the phrase!) in popular culture, and then to allow those seeds to inspire, […]

I was reading a beautiful article by Bishop Robert Barron that described one of the key ideas of the spirituality of St Ignatius of Loyola and it is also an underlying principle and part of the rationale for why I created and made my own First Things First online course (you can check out a description of the course here). In the midst of life, I have found that it is the ability to have “eyes to see and ears to hear” how all the people, events and circumstances in my life are interconnected, in addition to seeing and hearing […]
“Whoever does not take up his cross and follow after me is not worthy of me.” These words from the Gospel always give me strength and encouragement, rather than condemnation or fear of judgment, particularly when I am faced with changes in my life like are going on right now in the aftermath of my mom having a stroke. When I’m faced with my cross—the one God has personally prepared especially for me, and what He will use to transform me into the saint He created me to be, I still have to be willing to take it up. Additionally, […]

Tyrion goes on to say: “There is nothing more powerful than a good story…nothing can stop it.” And Tyrion argues that this is why Bran should be king, […]
