August 23, 2020 – Paul Senz
Today we spoke with the author of Fatima: 100 Questions and Answers about the Marian Apparitions. It is a book that has coincides with Fatima, the movie. This book was a delight and I would recommend it for everyone—parents could even use it to teach their children about Our Lady of Fatima and the visionaries Lucia, Jacinta, and Francisco. Our conversation began with some of the background of the families, the children themselves, the visions, and even the popes since Benedict XV to Francis and their devotion to Our Lady of Fatima. When you finishing listening, you can get the book here.

May 3, 2020 – Fiorella De Maria
This is the second time Fiorella De Maria has been on the show. She is a writer of the Father Gabriel murder mysteries; the book we spoke about today was See no Evil. What an absolutely delightful book – it is a page turner. When reading the book, I did figure out one clue, but it was an easy one at the beginning. But Fiorella completely surprised me with the rest, although once revealed – it all made sense. In the interview we spoke about Fiorella’s ability to take into account forgiveness and the promise of new life, right in the middle of a murder mystery. It is set right after WWII, which adds to the beautiful tapestry of the book. After listening to the interview, you can get the book here.

January 12, 2020 – Alex Schindler
Today we welcome a young singer and evangelist. Alex Schindler is a cradle Catholic whose faith was lukewarm and left the faith after high school. Eventually in college, she found herself invited to the Catholic Newman Center, which began a journey home. She returned to the Church, this time having been well catechized. She also realized in college that she had an amazing ability to sing! Her re-version opened her to the possibility of a vocation to the religious life, and this journey led her to life of healing of old wounds. Alex’s story is one of inspiration!

August 26, 2018 – Eleanor Bourg Nicholson
Her first novel is out and it is a hit! Eleanor Bourg Nicholson joins us today to speak about A Bloody Habit, which takes place in turn-of-the-century London, and evil is besieging the city. Her main character is reading Dracula during the telling of the story. Nicholson masterfully weaves the two novels together. Her retelling is utterly Catholic, but in subtle way. We had a wonderful conversation about some of the themes of the book, how Nicholson came to write, and she gives us the promise that she is working on another imaginative novel. After listening to the show, you will want to get the book – you can do so here.

August 12, 2018 – Kelly Wahlquist & Allison Gingras
What a joy today to have both Kelly Wahlquist and Allison Gingras with us. Kelly is a Catholic evangelist, speaker, and founder of WINE: Women In the New Evangelization., and Allison is Catholic blogger, author, speaker, social media evangelist, and hosts a podcast. We spoke about the new book edited by Kelly and written by a number of women associated with WINE. Gaze upon Jesus: Experiencing Christ’s Childhood through the Eyes of Women is a wonderful book. In it you will find references to scripture readings, explaining them in a way you may not have thought of before. Then, there is biblical fiction, placing you right into the story, then writings on virtue, and a modern look at how the story still has meaning now. Perhaps my favorite part of the book is the visio divina – contemplating the Lord through sacred images. There are full color copies of Vatican paintings, a description of them, and a way to pray with them. This book is a 10! I was enthralled, and then so grateful to speak to Kelly and Allison. After listening, you can go to catholicvineyard.com to get the book and join the virtual book club!

The women have come from a variety of backgrounds, but are all moms. They were looking for a way to teach their own children, but then found another calling, to help teach other children as well.
