    • Count the Fruit: September Gospel Reflections
      Oct 6 2025

      Send us a text

      The first day of October finds us buckling a car seat, grabbing microphones, and laughing through nerves as “baby day” finally arrives. Two weeks ago we thought labor had started—turns out it was two kidney stones at thirty‑six weeks—an ordeal that pushed us to ask better questions, lean on each other, and relearn the difference between bracing and trusting. From nesting wins to a quiet pilgrimage to the Shrine of Our Lady of La Leche in St. Augustine, we trace how grace threads through pain, humor, and ordinary preparation.

      Our conversation moves through September’s Gospels with fresh eyes. Luke 14 confronts the true cost of discipleship and why “hating” sin actually makes room for deeper tenderness. John 3:16 on the Feast of the Exaltation of the Holy Cross reframes suffering with the serpent‑to‑cross arc: what once harmed can be lifted up and turned into hope. Then Luke 16 sneaks up on us—first with the “dishonest steward” as a jolting lesson in prudence and foresight, and then with the rich man and Lazarus, a stark warning about comfort, omission, and the people we stop seeing at our own gates.

      We also share why we’re taking a short hiatus to welcome our daughter, how a 33‑day Marian consecration and the Litany keep our hearts steady, and why turning outrage into real conversation might be the most countercultural act of love right now. If you’re here for Catholic faith that’s lived, not performed—for practical holiness, honest marriage talk, and Scripture that reads your life back to you—you’ll feel at home with us. Subscribe, share this with a friend who needs some courage, and leave a review to help others find the show. We’ll be back in the new year—pray for us, and we’ll be praying for you.

      Joe's Resource for the Dishonest Steward:


      September Gospels:

      Luke 14:25-33

      Great crowds were traveling with Jesus,
      and he turned and addressed them,
      “If anyone comes to me without hating his father and mother,
      wife and children, brothers and sisters,
      and even his own life,
      he cannot be my disciple.
      Whoever does not carry his own cross and come after me
      cannot be my disciple.
      Which of you wishing to construct a tower
      does not first sit down and calculate the cost
      to see if there is enough for its completion?
      Otherwise, after laying the foundation
      and finding himself unable to finish the work
      the onlookers should laugh at him and say,
      ‘This one began to build but did not have the resources to finish.’
      Or what king marching into battle would not first sit down
      and decide whether with ten thousand troops
      he can successfully oppose another king
      advancing upon him with twenty thousand troops?
      But if not, while he is still far away,
      he will send a delegation to ask for peace terms.
      In the same way,
      anyone of you who does not renounce all his possessions
      cannot be my disciple.”

      John 3:13-17

      Jesus said to Nicodemus:
      "No one has gone up to heaven
      except the one who has come down from heaven, the Son of Man.
      And just as Moses lifted up the serpent in the desert,
      so must the Son of Man be lifted up,
      so that everyone who believes i

    • Creating Our Family Mission Statement
      Sep 15 2025

      Send us a text

      What does it mean to build a family with intention? As we prepare for the arrival of our daughter, we're diving into the meaningful (and sometimes challenging) conversations about what we want our family to stand for and how we'll approach raising our children.

      Creating a family mission statement might sound like corporate jargon, but we're discovering it's a powerful way to align our values and set a course for our growing family. Joe's concise statement centers on being "a welcoming Catholic family spreading the gospel by intentionally living out God's word," while Katie's more detailed version emphasizes that family extends beyond blood relations, the importance of building each other up, and moving heavenward together as a team. As we work toward a combined statement, we realize that perhaps "Love God, love your neighbor, love your family" captures the essence of what matters most.

      Beyond our mission statement, we explore our current thinking on everything from education choices to dating rules, cell phone policies to picky eating struggles. We're discovering that while we have ideas now, we'll likely need what Joe calls "bespoke parenting" – tailoring our approach to fit each child's unique needs rather than applying blanket rules. The conversation reveals our hopes, fears, and the values we want to instill, all while acknowledging that our perspectives will evolve as we gain experience as parents.

      Whether you're just starting your family journey or well into raising children, join us for this honest, lighthearted conversation about creating a blueprint for family life. We'd love to hear what guides your parenting journey.

    • Count the Fruit: August Gospel Reflections
      Sep 1 2025

      Send us a text

      August Sunday Gospels:

      August 3rd - Luke 12: 13-21

      August 10th - Luke 12: 32-48

      August 17th - Luke 12: 49-53

      August 24th - Luke 13: 22-30

      August 31st - Luke 14: 1, 7-14

      What does it mean to count the fruit in our spiritual lives? In this reflective episode, Katie and Joe dive deep into the August Gospels, uncovering a consistent theme that challenges comfortable Christianity. Together, they explore Jesus's urgent calls to readiness, proper prioritization, and genuine humility.

      The conversation weaves through powerful parables – from the rich man building bigger barns to servants waiting for their master's return. "Where your treasure is, there your heart will be also" emerges as a guiding light through these reflections, prompting us to examine what we truly value. Katie and Joe vulnerably share their own struggles with these teachings, including their tendency to prioritize friends over strangers and their wrestling with expectations in relationships.

      Between scriptural insights, the hosts share personal updates that ground their spiritual discussion in everyday reality. Katie opens up about pregnancy challenges and finding unexpected acceptance in her workout community, while Joe recounts driving 2,200 miles in a week and their ongoing battle with a delayed refrigerator delivery. These honest glimpses into their lives create a relatable backdrop for profound spiritual truths.

      The episode culminates in a beautiful recitation of the Litany of Humility, a prayer that perfectly encapsulates the themes explored throughout their gospel reflections. By asking for deliverance from desires for esteem, love, and approval, the prayer invites listeners to join in a countercultural approach to faith – one that prioritizes heavenly treasures over earthly recognition.

      Whether you're looking to deepen your understanding of August's liturgical readings or seeking authentic conversation about faith amid life's complexities, this episode offers both spiritual nourishment and genuine companionship on the journey. Subscribe now and continue counting the fruit alongside Katie and Joe.
