What are your Catholic goals for the New Year? We'd love to hear!
I was going to comment this on one of your recent book videos, but chickened out. Now I have to say it -- I'm not officially Catholic yet, but started converting a year ago. I read Confessions last spring and while that book is not what started my conversion, it truly solidified for me that I needed to see this conversion through. I never thought that I (American woman in my 30s) could or would relate so heavily with a 4th century bishop from North Africa. St. Augustine described so many things that could have come straight from my own thoughts and memories. Definitely finish that book!
Thank you for sharing your story with us, Kat! It is a beautiful example of the Communion of Saints helping each other. We're so happy to hear that you are on this journey into the Catholic Church , and we'll definitely pray for you. St. Augustine has helped you, and now you have helped me to be motivated to finish reading his book :)
🙏🙏
Love St Rose of Lima! Our 6 mo old baby girl is named after her. Pray for us sinners St. Rose!
Aww how sweet! St. Rose pray for us!
There is a Catholic Classics podcast by Ascension where they are reading St.Augustine's Confessions. Maybe that would help you.
Thank you! I will check it out!
3:00 Another way is to read Essay Collections.
Chesterton's The Well and the Shallows; Utopia of Usurers; Eugenics and Other Evils ... (wait, no, that one is a monography, I just checked), and a few more are less "one book" than twenty-odd small booklets. You don't have to read all of them to enjoy one or two when it suits you.
Btw, the format I mainly propose for my blog to book idea. Blog posts are (usually) essays (and those that are dialogues would need the approval from the co-authors, those I debated and then published the debates on some of my blogs without asking first), and that means you can collect them in exactly the same way.
My own latest essay quotes from the last of these:
filolohika.blogspot.com/2024/01/sometimes-chesterton-was-wrong.html
You two are way too cute. Thank you for sharing your videos! I am working through a conversion experience that I experienced before last Christmas. This year I am watering the seed that Jesus has planted in my heart. It has some problem soil to grow through! I am drawn to Catholicism, but I have lots of fears and philosophical conundrums to work out. I am learning the history of the Bible, reading scripture, praying the rosary, and exploring catechism gradually. Your channel is a great resource! God bless :)
Thank you for your kind words, Sarah! Jesus will never rush you; he loves you eternally and will walk with you through all your questions, fears and doubts. We will be praying for you; please pray for us!
Thank you for sharing this. God bless you in this New Year!
You are very welcome. Happy New Year to you, too!
💛
I too am doing St. Faustina’s Diary in a Year after completing Bible in a Year and Catechism in a Year over the last 2 years. Fr. Joe’s podcasts are a great accompaniment to Donna Marie Cooper O’Boyle’s “52 Weeks with Saint Faustina”. Thanks for sharing this list! My tortoiseshell cat is sitting next to me as I listen. 😊 Congrats on reaching 4000 subscribers!
Thank you! Fr. Joe's commentary is so helpful... and his voice is so calm and soothing. Are you listening to just one episode a day or more? It looks like there are about 1,000 short episodes, so I am listening to 2-3 a day to get the book finished in a year.
@@catholicmomanddaughter I am listening to one episode per day, then 1 chapter of Donna Marie’s book per week. I assumed it would go for 365 days, but maybe I should look into that!
Tan publishers is currently selling their beautiful Catholic planner for five dollars! great price to help with goalsetting for the new year❤
Thank you! We have been watching for a price drop. What a great deal!!
2:00 Jimmy Akins is also great, except when he approaches Genesis 1 to 11.
I love how you keep these goals real and attainable for busy lives ❤ I've checked the movie release date for uk and we are March also which im excited about as sometimes we can be behind. My saint this year is St Helena and I enjoyed using the generator you suggested. Xx
We're so glad! You will have to weigh in on the movie with us after you see it. Lol- we have to keep things real here. Complicated never gets done at our house!
Hello from Alabama! Happy new year ! I’m reading about St. Dymphna right now ❤🙏🏻
She's such a great one! Have you read The King's Prey by Susan Peek? That is another good retelling of her story. Happy New Year- God bless!
Happy New Year to you both. My prayer group uses Jennifer Fulwiler’s saint generator every year as well. This year I have St. Bernard of Clairvaux. She also has a word of the year generator there as well, my word this year is “rise”. Interesting about Mother Cabrini and the movie, because St. Katherine Drexel was my saint last year. I’m anxious to see that upcoming movie as well. God bless, Linda Hardesty
St. Bernard! And you had Mother Drexel last year- two saints who changed the world, literally. Enjoy them, Linda. Happy New Year!
I definitely want to read more Catholic books this year. I'm looking forward to more recommendations from you ladies. I just signed up for St. Faustina in a year (thank you for mentioning it) and just saw the trailer for Cabrini the other day- I'm excited about it!! 🎉
Xo
The Diary in a Year has been so enjoyable so far. We hope you like it!
You two are so wonderful ! You’re giving me ideas . When do you find the time to read all those books?
Aww- thank you, Susan! We have always been readers here, and we really like audiobooks as well as print books. We are not so much TV fans, so that does give us more time to read :) Have a blessed New Year!
Just hearing you speak of St. Augustine’s Confessions has me ordering a new copy to re-read and mark up. The last time I read it was 2004. I also ordered a copy of St. Boethius’ The Consolation of Philosophy. I’d love to read more non-fiction Catholic books this year.
Great! It will be a St. Augustine year at both our houses :) Happy Epiphany!
Happy New Year! I just started doing St Faustina's Diary with Father Joe, I already did the Bile and Catechism in a year and loved them both. I would love to read Revelations by Xavier Reyes Ayral , The Untold Christmas Story by Mark Kaye and I think picking a saint through the generator sounds like fun. Never heard of this.Something new is always interesting.My Parish has always done First Friday's and First Saturday's. So I have done these for years I just don't do the required months I just keep going every month . So relaxing and I get so much out of it.And of course confession every month. Love. your channel!!
Happy New Year! We are so glad you enjoy our channel :) You are in inspiration with the First Fridays and First Saturdays- that is awesome! If you pick a saint, let us know who you get :)
Love the idea of picking a saint for the year. I used the Tiny Saints generator & I got St. Amelia! I’ll do some research on her but apparently not enough is known for there to be a book about her.
That's wonderful! You made us curious, so we looked her up, and she is fascinating even without a book! We hope you have a delightful year with her :)
I just tried the Tiny Saints generator and got Saint Moses the Black, whom I've known about for some time, and am so excited to get to know better this year!
Good one! You will have to keep us posted through the year how that goes. He seems like the sort who is going to go all in for you :)
Happy New Year my frieds! I hope you are having a wonderful Christmas season! Other than saints of the year (again with the little flower in addition to st therese of avila and st john of the cross) and the word of the year (forgiveness) i have not planned anything at all. Weird for me, I am a natural planner😂. I will fo us on being open. Have you read The Context of Holiness by Mark Foley?
Hello; we haven't read that one, but we will definitely look for it. Thanks for the tip! Maybe God has something planned for you and it's good you haven't made plans of your own this year. Keep us posted... the Holy Spirit is on the move. Happy New Year!
Thank you so much for all you do, you're both so inspiring with your joy and positivity, thank you. I'm sorry if you already know about this, I just wanted to mention the Catholic Classics Podcast from Ascension (with Fr. Gregory Pine and Fr. Jacob Bertrand). They have done a read through of St Augustine's Confessions. I think it's about 60 episodes of 20-30 mins where they read a bit and reflect on it, a bit like how Fr Mike does with the Bible and the Catechism. I just thought if you want to read the Confessions and enjoyed the Bible in a Year/Catechsim in a year then you might enjoy that podcast. Sorry if you're already family with that. Thank you so much again to both of you and God bless you for 2024.
Thank you for the great information! This will be a big help and good motivation to finally finish this book :)
@@catholicmomanddaughter you're very welcome, thank you so much for replying, I'm glad that is hopefully helpful for you.
You're so inspirational, those all sound great. One thing that I'm planning on is to put more focus & effort into truly loving the people God places in my life/before me whether it be family or people I meet or work with.
I didn't know if there was a certain day that you're sposed to pick a saint for the year so sometime between Christmas & new year I used the Fulwieler saint name generator & got St. Peter & the word savor. This is my first time & I'm hoping I'll learn more what I'm to do.
I appreciate you so, so much !
Oooh- Peter! Have you read "The Fisherman's Tomb" about how St. Peter's bones were found? It's so interesting! But you can also read St. Peter's own words in his letters; that is amazingly cool. Also- fish! Ask him to help out with the ice fishing; maybe someone will get a really big catch. We love your plan to love the people you are with. Mother Teresa always said that is the best way to change the world :)
@@catholicmomanddaughter Thank you for the tips. I have not read that book yet. I will definitely ask for his intercession on fish. We catch & eat fish year-round so it is a major part of our diet. Some of our visiting religious chuckle about us having to eat fish during lent because it doesn't seem like much of a sacrifice. We love fish. We eat them dried, smoked, kippered & even frozen & raw and of course, in our agutaq (ice cream).
We are also fish lovers here, but we don't have fish ice cream. We would love to try it!
Been thinking about Bible in a year for several years, this is the year! Now I have to get started, I'm already behind 😂
That is wonderful- you go!! You can easily catch up or just do BIY in one year and 5 days, lol. As Fr. Mike always says, just keep pressing play :)
If you have a prayer intention for the New Year, please let us know. We would love to pray for you!
4:42 "Kate" -- of Alexandria or of Siena?
Or, obviously, for the daughter of St. Bridget?
Or, the probably holiest member of the Drexel family?
Oooh…. I found your channel based on books you were recommending be removed from church libraries. This makes me really curious as to why you would choose Ronald Rohlheiser. He is definitely not orthodox. Please check out this article… “Red Flags Are Up! On the Writings of Fr. Ronald Rolheiser, OMI” on the Catholic Culture website.
Thank you for the heads up! We are learning all the time. We always say that one of the best things about our channel is what we learn from our viewers.
Came here to say the same thing. Steer clear of Rolheiser!!
@@catholicmomanddaughter You’re so welcome! I liked your channel right away and so was startled. Wouldn’t have watched again or subscribed had I not seen that other video first. Bless you.,
9:33 Spoiler alert : St. Augustine is converted by the prayers of his mother, St. Monica. At least that's the analysis of St. Ambrose.
As for St. Augustine himself, there was probably a child calling out "tolle lege" (perhaps to count someone out for hide and seek) and him overhearing it.
John3:5-Jesus said- l am telling you the truth,"replied Jesus."that no one can enter the Kingdom of God without being born of water and the Spirit.Amen. We use to Baptist church idea.God bless to all.
God bless you, friend!
I got St. Zachariah when I used the old saint generator. I am not quite sure what I can do about learning more about him. I am praying the prayer in the Magnificat regularly (hopefully daily). I am open to ideas on how I can get closer or learn more about him. Just curious, have you ever encouraged your CCD students to pick a saint? I am considering it for our first class of the year. I don't have as many fun things as you have planned. I am participating in Bible in a year. I am sort of struggling with jumping around the Bible a bit. It is definitely not as straightforward as CIY. I plan to read at least six spiritual books, mostly the ones I will get from Sophia Press but I do have others in my little personal library. I have also tried to commit to reading the Magnificat evening prayer daily. I have not done so in the past and decided to make it part of an evening routine. So far, three days in, I have been able to remember to do it. Let's see how I fare once I return to work. And thanks for spotlighting me on the "quick reads." That is up my alley! I will try to check it out today. I love hoopla. HAPPY NEW YEAR! (p.s. I love the shots with Kate and the kitties. That hiss was classic!)
The kitties were not living together in harmony as per the instructions in Psalm 133, so that was not good or pleasant, lol. You have some really good plans, Ann! The Magnificat is a really wonderful resource. Like you, though, we are not always good here about reading it daily. St. Zachariah is a tough one! You would almost need to find a good book about the Visitation with him in it. We will look around here and see if we can come up with any titles for you. The Domestic Monastery reminded us of you right away since you work with little ones all day. We think you will like what the author has to say about that!
Also- yes, I have had my students pick a saint for the year. I think they enjoyed the picking part, and I even had one student take the name of his saint of the year in 7th grade as his confirmation saint 3 years later, so that was neat!
I would like to read the NT I am a new Catholic and find the Bible very hard to understand which is why I have opted just to read the NT
Hi, Hayley- the NT is a great place to start. We have always heard that the Acts of the Apostles is a good place to begin- it does read like an action/adventure novel! Have you tried out Bible in A Year with Fr. Mike Schmitz? He does a wonderful job of explaining the Bible step by step, and you could easily skip ahead to his episodes on the NT. God bless!
I googled Ronald Rolheiser, and he is a controversial priest. Several Catholic outlets have highlighted some of his questionable writings, Women of Grace, Catholic Culture website, The Catholic Messenger, to name a few. The fact that there is discussion about his writing not being completely orthodox, would make me leary of reading any of his books.
Thank you! Yes- we became aware that his book, The Holy Longing, is considered to be controversial after we published this video. We are learning here all the time, and we appreciate your concern. God bless!
1:52 Father Mike is a great person, but "Bible in a Year" suffers from not accepting the obvious and for most of Catholic history simply accepted reading of Genesis 1 to 11.
Number 11- stop worshiping idols
We are sorry to hear you are struggling with this. We will pray for you.
@@catholicmomanddaughter I meant the Catholics but I appreciate it
