The 2rgathered Catholic Podcast tworgathered

Father Rob and Jim talk about their impressions on going through the consecration to Mary, how it compares to the consecration to St Joseph and the impact the past 33 days have had on their lives.  We've been podcasting for a year and we are going to go on hiatus for a while.  We will still be accepting emails at mail@2rgathered.com.  
and you can always post on our Facebook page! Thanks for listening from Fr Rob and Jim!!

Father Rob and Jim do a bad job talking about the complex Catholic themes woven in Lord of the Rings.  Give a listen and you may find something out you didn't know about this masterpiece of fiction.  Also go listen to these guys at the Burroshire Podcast who do a much longer breakdown https://burrowshirepodcast.com/catholicism-lord-of-the-rings/

We didn't know much about this saint but she kept on coming on Jim's radar so we decided to talk about this amazing woman.  Hope you enjoy it.  If you want to read about her yourself https://www.amazon.com/Maryam-Bethlehem-Little-Sister-Emmanuel/dp/0998021849/ref=asc_df_0998021849/?tag=hyprod-20&linkCode=df0&hvadid=509362509069&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=10938402319530112815&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9019558&hvtargid=pla-912420546650&psc=1

Father Rob and Jim start the 33 day consecration to the Blessed Mother today (I know we said the 8th.  We screwed up). We talk a bit about our consecration t St Joseph and what drew us to this consecration.  Here is the link to the book. We would LOVE to have people join us on the journey!

Father Rob walks us through the life and the works of St Jane Frances de Chantal and her friendship with St Francis de Sales.  Also we are trying to talk less and get to the point more!
 
Here is a link to the book on the concecration to Mary that we are starting Sept 8 https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00DJDZMXK/ref=cm_sw_em_r_mt_dp_17FVPYFD51KCY56DZ1V3

Father Rob is back and we're discussing what many say is our greatest emergency in the Church. How do we get our youth back?  Research shows that for every 1 convert to the Church 6.45 people leave us.  The discussion is a little long but we hope you find it worthwhile.  Here is a connection to Bishop Barron's Podcast which covers this topic in multiple episodes. https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-word-on-fire-show-catholic-faith-and-culture/id1065019039
