FoC 120: Making Mary Your Real Life Mom with Katie Prejean McGrady The Fountains of Carrots Podcast

    • Christentum

Can you believe that after five years of podcasting, we’ve never had a whole episode about Our Lady? But we knew exactly who to have on for this discussion: our friend Katie Prejean McGrady!







Katie graduated from the University of Dallas but now lives in Louisiana where she is wife to Tommy and mom to precious little Rose. She’s an author and also been speaking all over the country and internationally since 2007. Her newest project is Ave Explores with Ave Maria Press. This initiative includes articles, videos, podcasts, social media exclusives, surprising facts, and resources for classrooms and parishes.







In this episode we do a deep dive into our relationship with Mary: how we first came to encounter Our Lady, how she inspires and walks beside us, books that have helped us grow to know her and more!







So grab a cup of coffee and enjoy the conversation!







Things we talked about:







Ave Explores







The Reed of God by Caryll Houselander







33 Days to Morning Glory by Fr. Michael Gaitley

The Rosary played a significant role in helping converts Meg and Kyle Tietz find their way home to the Church. But they ran into a recurring problem – rosary beads kept breaking in their hands. Kyle, decided to teach himself to make an indestructible rosary that was so beautiful, it would inspire frequent prayer. Nikolaus Design (named after Kyle’s confirmation saint, St. Nicholas) was born from that mission! They create rosaries that are beautiful enough for special occasions but durable enough for daily prayer and they offer wire-wrapped, heirloom rosaries made from semiprecious gemstones, Swarovski crystals, Czech glass, genuine turquoise, and our specialty – handmade sterling silver Southwestern pearls.















You will not find rosaries constructed with these unique handmade beads anywhere else! Rosaries by Nikolaus Design are perfect for gifts for weddings, baptisms, confirmation, graduation, or Christmas or as a gift to yourself to inspire a deeper devotion to Our Lady’s Rosary.
