Nearing the end of the Freshly Brewed season and catechism study, we're devoting a whole episode to Mary, our heavenly mom!
Specifically, Meghan and Lindsay talk about the "obedience of faith" and Mary's perfect response to God while we talk over paragraph 148.
CCC 148: The Virgin Mary most perfectly embodies the obedience of faith. By faith Mary welcomes the tidings and promise brought by the angel Gabriel, believing that "with God nothing will be impossible" and so giving her assent: "Behold I am the handmaid of the Lord; let it be done to me according to your word." Elizabeth greeted her: "Blessed is she who believed that there would be a fulfillment of what was spoken to her from the Lord." It is for this faith that all generations have called Mary blessed.

The Catechism on prayer is really, really beautiful. Today's episode shows the truth of that statement, as Meghan and Lindsay chat about paragraph 2567. Learn about the first movement of our life of prayer: God calls man first.
Meghan and Lindsay have moved into the 4th pillar of the Catechism, and we're excited to start talking about Christian Prayer! Instead of talking about one particular paragraph, we chat about 10 defining words: PRAYER AS GOD'S GIFT, PRAYER AS COVENANT, PRAYER AS COMMUNION. We promised a lot to come on our SHOWNOTES, so stop by the website sometime soon!
As we move through our deep dive into the Catechism of the Catholic Church, Lindsay is joined by repeat guests Bekah, Catherine, and Sarah. The Catechism has a lot to say regarding the 5th Commandment, and we're here for the discussion of it. More to come on Instagram and on our blog, so stay tuned.

Do we have to be perfect in order to live a holy life? Meghan and Lindsay spend time chatting about just that this week on the podcast. CCC 1693 - Christ Jesus always did what was pleasing to the Father, and always lived in perfect communion with him. Likewise Christ's disciples are invited to live in the sight of the Father "who sees in secret," in order to become "perfect as your heavenly Father is perfect."
