I Didn’t Know You’re Catholic!

We can often go through life interacting with friends, neighbors, co-workers, etc., not knowing that they – like us – are Catholic. It can transform a friendship into a deep and dynamic Christ-centered relationship. Is there someone in your life you discovered is also a Catholic? How has that taken that friendship or relationship to another level? Share your take with Jerry and Debbie on Wednesday.

O, Canada!

On Tuesday, Debbie will be traveling and Jerry will be hosting the show by himself. He wants to hear from our friends and listeners in Canada about their experience of living the faith in their “home and native land.” It’s always interesting when we share experiences that might help shape our view of the universal Church. So, if you live in Canada, are a Canadian who now calls the United States home, or are a snowbird who spends the winters south of the border, be sure to call and share your take with Jerry!

What Do You Want Jesus to Do For You?

In the gospel, a blind man approaches Jesus seeking a favor. Jesus asks him, “What do you want me to do for you?” This shows a very merciful and gentle side of Jesus. If he asked that blind man this question, why would He not ask you and me the same thing? With that in mind, do you approach Jesus with the confidence that He will do for you what you request? Apparently, the blind man did believe, because Jesus said his faith had brought about the healing of his sight. The man immediately began to follow Jesus, which tells us that we likewise should be grateful for all of His gifts. Share with Jerry and Debbie on Friday what it is you would like Jesus to do for you.

What Is Your “Achilles Heel?”

In life, most of us have it together. At least as far as getting by and being successful is concerned. But we also all have our “achilles heel,” a particular weakness that keeps us honest. What is yours? Even a giant like St. Paul wrote about the thorn in his flesh that kept him humble. It’s time for some honest reflection and sharing with Jerry and Debbie on Thursday’s broadcast.

What’s Breaking Your Heart?

Because our hearts are capable of loving, they are capable of hurting. A heart that has never been broken is a heart that has never loved. Which seems impossible, given that man is created in love, for love. Is there something that’s breaking your heart right now? An unfaithful spouse? A son or daughter who has left the Church? A medical diagnosis that you or someone you love has recently received? The causes of heartaches are limitless. But we can help bring one another encouragement when they come into our lives. Join Jerry and Debbie for what promises to be a moving discussion on Wednesday.

Super-Charge Your Prayer Life!

It’s been said that prayer is the key to salvation. We all should spend some amount of time in prayer every day. In fact, 1 Thessalonians 5:17 exhorts us to “pray without ceasing.” So, how is your prayer life? Jon Leonetti will join Jerry and Debbie on Tuesday to talk about a new movement he has launched called “Thirty Days to Better Prayer.” Be sure you share you takes and call with your questions at Noon ET.

When Have You Felt Disrespected?

At some point in life, we will all be disrespected. For some, it happens on a regular basis. For example, certain jobs carry with them a stigma that is worsened by the fact that people look down on them (waiters/waitresses, housekeepers, janitors, those who clean restrooms in the airport, etc.). Other occasions when we’re disrespected are when people are rude to us in public, cutting in front of us on the road, chatting on their cell phone and holding up the line at the grocery store, and so forth. Needless to say, disrespect is a common occurrence within families, including, sadly when children disrespect their parents. Of course, the types and frequency of disrespect are innumerable. Share your take on this topic on Wednesday with Jerry and Debbie.

What Makes Your Heart Sing?

The human heart is designed to be stirred when certain things happen in our lives. Maybe it’s when you first met the person you eventually married. Or seeing your son or daughter win their first youth sporting event. Maybe it’s happened to you in a moment as simple as driving home from work and seeing a beautiful sunset or rainbow. When this happens to us, it often signals a recognition on our part of something truly sublime and beautiful, something that clearly touches us in a deep place. When does this happen for you? How do you see God in the moments when your heart sings? Share your take with Jerry and Debbie on Tuesday.

Are You Fighting For Custody of a Child?

It’s very unfortunate when parents cannot get along, especially to the point where they choose to separate and/or end the marriage. If there are kids involved, then a tug-of-war could potentially ensue to see which parent will have full or primary custody of the children. This can be very harmful to all involved, most particularly the children. If you’ve been through this, or know someone who is going through it, share your take today with Jerry and Debbie.
