On Tuesday, we want to hear your story if you once left the Catholic faith but have since returned. These real life accounts can go a long way toward helping others take the same journey you did.

We like to start each month with one of our popular prayer shows. On Monday, join us and let the entire Take 2 Family around the world pray with you for your important intentions.

Over the years, we’ve done a lot of shows about our pets. They have been very popular and well-received. So, on Wednesday, we revisit the topic and ask you how your pet shows his or her love for you. Plan to join us for what promises to be an inspiring conversation.

Tuesday is the Feast of St. Joachim and Anne, the parents of the Blessed Virgin Mary. That, of course, makes them the grandparents of Our Lord Jesus Christ. While very little is known about them, one would have to believe that they were somehow involved in his life, at least in his younger years. Join us as we talk about the joys and duties of grandparents.

Are you and your spouse both practicing and devout Catholics? If so, please join our conversation on Monday as we talk about the joys of being “equally yoked.” Tapping into the graces of the Sacrament of Matrimony can help a marriage tremendously.

The school year is soon going to be underway. How are your family’s preparations going? We’ll have a lively conversation about that on Friday.

Once a month, we bring a few of the top local, regional and national news stories to the show. You get to share your takes and insights on those stories. That’s what we’ll be doing on Thursday, so please join us!

On Wednesday, let’s talk about how much – or little – we feel appreciated in our own homes and in our workplaces. Knowing we are acknowledged and appreciated in life can go a long way toward inspiring us to give of ourselves even more to others.

Wikipedia says this about survivor’s guilt: “Survivor’s guilt is a mental condition that occurs when a person believes they have done something wrong by surviving a traumatic or tragic event when others could not. The experience and manifestation of survivor’s guilt will depend on an individual’s psychological profile.” Have you experienced this? The subject was suggested by our listener Jon. Let’s talk about it on Monday.

The world is busy. It’s noisy. It’s distracting. Sometimes we feel a need to just unplug and get away for a awhile. Other times, we might feel the Lord drawing us toward a more contemplative life altogether. That doesn’t have to mean joining a monastery or a convent. There are many ways to live a contemplative life in this hectic world. Let’s talk about that on Friday.
