Raising your kids to be saints!

th (6)

On Take 2 with Jerry and Debbie, the topic Wednesday is all about instilling the Faith in our children.  We all want our kids to embrace the Faith, and one day become saints! Parents are the primary catechists.  It is our ministry and responsibility to pass on the Faith to our children.  How do we do that?  What is the best way?  Are there tools, resources to help us with this mission?  Let’s talk about it…Share your “take” on this extremely important topic…

What if, as a parent, you did EVERYTHING you knew to do according to the Church, yet your children grew up and strayed away from the Faith…What now?  Do you feel like you failed?

What did the Pope say ..?

Our Holy Father, Pope Francis sure is popular with the news media!  His statements seem to give rise to many dinner conversations. People are misquoting him, interpreting what he says, even making bold inaccurate comments about Church teaching based solely out of context.  These unfortunate results leave so many scratching their heads, asking themselves,

“What exactly did Pope Francis mean when he said…?”

To clear up any misunderstandings and to explain to us the real intent behind the Holy Father’s statements, we have a special expert guest with us for Friday’s show…

dr-matthew-bunsonDr. Matthew Bunson (author, professor, speaker)

Dr. Bunson is the go-to person for questions about Pope Francis, in fact

he is one of the United States’ leading authorities on the papacy and the Church.

Annulments according to the Catholic Church

Concept image of a lost and confused signpost against a blue cloudy sky.

What is an Annulment?  How do I get one?  Do I need one?  How much does it cost?  Does it mean my marriage never existed?  What about the children of an annulled marriage?  How long does the process take? If I am not going to remarry what is the purpose of an annulment?  So many questions around this very misunderstood process.  Join us Tuesday, Sept 1st as we unpack the topic of Catholic Annulments.  Share your experience, your thoughts, even your fears about this subject, by calling in at 1-800-585-9396.  Take 2 with Jerry and Debbie depends on you, so tune in and be a part of the discussion.

How We Read Newspapers

As we always say, Take 2 With Jerry and Debbie is all about taking a fresh, unique look at issues that touch each of our lives. Monday, we’ll examine how we read newspapers. What’s that, you say? Well, you’ll have to tune in for the full story (pun intended). Suffice it to say that your local or national paper is laid out in such a way as to draw your attention to specific sections and places first. There’s a whole psychology to newspaper layout. Not to mention the reporting of most major newspapers (can you say “bias?”). It’s all designed to send you a distinct message that goes way beyond the headlines and the details of the stories. In other words, to manipulate you. Be with us on Monday for what should be a very informative show!

Do You Know Your Way Around the Bible?

On Friday, Debbie and Jerry will welcome Sonja Corbitt to the show. She is an on-fire convert to the Catholic faith, with a speciality in Scripture (though she can speak on many other topics). We will explore “Bible Basics,” essentially helping you get a grasp on where the Bible came from, how the Catholic Church compiled the sacred books, how to get started reading, studying and praying the Bible, and much more. As always, your takes will drive the show. So, call with any question you have about understanding and falling in love with Sacred Scripture! By the way, Sonja and Deacon Harold Burke-Sivers have an amazing new 13-part Bible study coming out soon. Be watching for it! You can learn more about Sonja at http://thirdmillenniummedia.com/project/sonja-corbitt/
