Is it recurring sin? Is it a poor self-image? Is it your family, friends, or work? What is keeping you chained, especially to your past, and not allowing you to experience the love, mercy and grace that God has for you? Name it, then you can overcome it, and be truly free with the help of the Sacraments of our Church. Please call in and share what keeps you shackled or maybe how you finally broke free. Your story can be life changing for all who listen. 1-833-288-3986.
Let’s talk about what compassion means to you. The definition of the word is sympathetic pity and concern for the sufferings or misfortunes of others. Jesus was moved with compassion throughout scripture, helping people and healing them. How do we understand compassion and how do we practice compassion? Or do we just talk about compassion with no real action behind our words. With your participation, we can really learn something from this topic. Please call us at, 1-833-288-3986.
Only you know what it is time to do and only you can begin that process. So what is it time to do in your life? Maybe it is to lose weight, get healthy, exercise more, improve your finances, change careers, move to another part of the country or maybe it is time to finally develop a deeper relationship with God. We are now into the second half of 2018. This is a great time to start something new. Make this your day to declare what you are going to do that will help you on the journey of life. Remember, when you state it out loud, that is an important step on the road to positive change. Call us, 1-833-288-3986.

A Prayer of Commitment
Lord God, Please forgive me
for all the things I have done wrong.
I turn to you and turn away from sin.
[Pause. Silently ask forgiveness
for anything you know is
keeping you from God.]
Jesus, please be the center of my life.
I welcome you personally as Lord and
Savior of my life. I ask you, Holy Spirit,
to fill me and empower me
to live as a child of God. I want to
have your grace to truly live a new life.
Thank you for hearing my prayer through
Christ our Lord. Amen.
Unconditional love, genuine concern, joyful spirit, living in the moment, how to have fun? We have all learned from our pets, just admit it. These adorable creatures from God have given us clear signs on how we should live as well but because they are not human we sometimes overlook their ability to teach us about being better people. They know only one thing, how to love and be loved, isn’t that what we are called to do as well. Maybe God gave us dogs and cats to remind us how to truly love. Let’s talk about this and more on the next Take 2 with Jerry and Debbie. Call in and share what you learned from your pet. 1-833-288-3986.

Your kids are home for the summer from college. Whose rules do they adhere to? Theirs? Yours? Do you have house rules that everyone must live by regardless of age or life circumstance? Or do you bend the rules to appease your adult children? These conditions can cause a lot of grieve for parents. Especially, when parents are not on the same page. This topic was suggested to us by one of our listeners and we are grateful to her for bringing this issue to us so that we can all talk about it. So please call in and share your experience of this. We would like to gain a whole new perspective on this situation that a lot of us encounter. 1-833-288-3986.

Unbelievable! We recently learned that there are over 1500 national days not to mention all the international days dedicated to something in particular. The ones that get us the most are the days that tell us how to be Christian, like July 7th, National Father-Daughter Take a Walk Day. Are you kidding? We need a designated day to remind us that we should be spending time with our daughters and taking nice long leisurely walks with them in the park. Or how about National Cheer Up the Lonely Day on July 11th. So, if we are to take these days seriously, then for just one day a year we must make that concerted effort to be good, virtuous and holy…The rest of the year?…Oh well, the world doesn’t seem to care how we behave. Let’s talk about this on the next Take 2 with Jerry and Debbie. Call in at, 1-833-288-3986.
