Reading along, not required, to enjoy learning more about Celtic Spirituality with author Julianne Stanz, author of Braving the Thin Places: Celtic Wisdom to Create a Space for Grace (Loyola Press). This week, author Julianne Stanz and I began the conversation by exploring the concept of anam cara, or "soul friend." You won't want to miss the opportunity to learn about this beautiful way we connect with others, and about how you can pray to recognize your soul friend! And, of course, there's much more to the discussion in this session. Don't miss it!

You don't need to be reading along to be blessed by this inspiring conversation with author Julianne Stanz, author of Braving the Thin Places: Celtic Wisdom to Create a Space for Grace. What a blessing to be joined for three weeks with author Julianne Stanz as we delve into the Catholic Mom Book Club selection for Fall 2024: Braving the Thin Places: Celtic Wisdom to Create a Space for Grace, published by Loyola Press. Listen in (and share your thoughts in the comments) as we discuss the concept of a "thin place" and how that relates to our spiritual life. We unpack our spiritual "junk drawers" and contemplate what the "potato masher" in our lives may exist that keeps us from letting go of our stubborn habits and behaviors.
