January's Teaching Moment

As we make our New Year's resolutions, you may want to add two simple but powerful prayers to your life: saying the name of Jesus and The Jesus Prayer. January is dedicated to the Holy Name of Jesus, and there is a simple gesture that you can do as an act of reverence for His name. Upon saying or hearing the name of Jesus, which means, "God saves", gently bow your head. The name of Jesus is the most powerful name in all of Heaven and earth. Demons flee at His name, and tradition says this gesture makes amends for the blasphemous use of His name. And you can also say the Jesus Prayer often during this month: "Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, have mercy on me, a sinner."

Carolina Catholic has some great ideas for gifts from Sophia Institute Press as we begin Advent!

For our first December show, we speak to four authors from Sophia Institute Press including Anthony DeStefano, a best selling author of adult and children's books, biographer of Sister Dede Byrnes, Dr. Leisa Marie Carzon, and two  writers/illustrators of children's books, Janine Rainwater and Frank Fraser. We will speak first to Anthony about his newest children's book, Christmas in Heaven. Then we will chat with Dr. Carzon about her book on Sister Dede, entitled, "Sister, Soldier, Surgeon." Finally, we will chat briefly with Janine about her book, The Melody of Love, and then with Frank about his book, Already There.   These are all great books to help us all deepen our Catholic faith as we prepare for the birth of Our Lord Jesus Christ.
