Episode 59: "And when I am lifted up from the earth, I will draw everyone to myself." - John 12:32

Join author and host Julia Monnin* on this episode as she invites listeners to spend some time pondering the words found in John 12:20–33 and a Lenten sermon by Schoenstatt's founder Fr. Joseph Kentenich.

"He who is raised on the cross wishes to speak to us. He who is raised on the cross wishes to draw our hearts closer to himself . . . He stresses that he possesses the first right over the heart which he created and which so many try to lure away from him. He wants to draw our hearts to himself; they should be completely his own." - Fr. Joseph Kentenich (Lenten Sermons)

Episode 58: "Schoenstatt highlights the way in which Mary embodied the Gospel and lived out of an intimate, personal covenant relationship with our Lord." (Sr. M. Isabel Bracero in "Sursum Corda: Lift Up Your Hearts!", pg. 11)


"Slow down and receive." "Walk, don't run." "Focus more on letting Christ in and less on uprooting the darkness." . . . Join author and host Julia Monnin* on this episode as she reflects on these thoughts (and more!) while encouraging listeners to consider moving slower (not faster) during this season of Lent.

"Let us walk like you through life, / let us mirror you forever, / strong and noble, meek and mild,/ peace and love be our endeavor. / Walk in us through our world, /make it ready for the Lord." (Opening of the "Imitation of Mary" prayer by Fr. Joseph Kentenich)

Episode 57: "...and Simeon blessed them and said to Mary his mother, 'Behold, this child is destined for the fall and rise of many in Israel, and to be a sign that will be contradicted (and you yourself a sword will pierce) so that the thoughts of many hearts may be revealed.'" (Luke 2:34-35)


Join author and host Julia Monnin* on this episode as she reflects on The Fourth Joyful Mystery of the Rosary: The Presentation of Jesus in the Temple. Looking ahead to Lent, Julia also shares with listeners some ideas on entering into the penitential practices of prayer, fasting, and almsgiving with a little more intentionality and focus.

"Filled with longing for our salvation, you present in the Temple the One you conceived of the Holy Spirit. Your motherly gaze is turned to us as you return him unconditionally and entirely to the Father. ... 'Like you, the great servant of the sacrifice, I give everything I hold most dear for the salvation of souls.'" (Reflection on The Fourth Joyful Mystery of the Rosary written by Fr. Joseph Kentenich in Heavenwards.)
