Episode #45- April 12, 2022: Creating Space: A Two Part Episode - Part 1
Tuesday Apr 12, 2022
Tuesday Apr 12, 2022
In this and the next episode, Alisha, Annie, Lauren, and Stacy discuss what it means to "create space". We explore space as a physical area, as time, as action, as openness, as relationship, and as reaction. This resulting two part episode was not the episode we were expecting when we started our discussion but it turned out so much better.

In this episode we discuss Lenten devotions, mortifications, and penances. We discuss the definitions of promise and sin. We also talk about the distinctions between good intentions and vows. Intentionality and purpose are eluded to as key factors in choosing our mortifications. Also, what to do if our penances are not building up our relationship with God.

In this episode Stacy and Annie interview Barbara and Adriana from Willow Pregnancy Support. They get an update on The Rose Home construction (refer back to episode #13 : Discussion with Dolores), hear about what services Willow provides for women, and hear stories about the history of the organization and the women who have come to them for help. And what would an episode about Moms and their babies be without Stacy's and Annie's youngest kiddos making themselves heard. As Adriana says in this episode, "We love kids!"

Episode #42- February 28, 2022: Trust, Pray, Rest, & Delight: A Reflection
Monday Feb 28, 2022
Monday Feb 28, 2022
Due to weather and illness the co-hosts of Coffee & Catholics were not able to meet this month to record. Rather than missing an episode or asking listeners to wait four weeks for the next episode we decided to do something a little different.
In this episode, Stacy reflects on the talks given at the 2022 Oklahoma Catholic Women's Conference by three fantastic speakers; Leah Darrow, Sr. Marie Veritas, and Kimberly Hahn. She shares some of the quotes from the speakers, connects their talks to each other, and reflects on them as they relate to her current journey.

Episode #36- December 6, 2021: Feminism and Catholic Social Justice Teaching
Tuesday Dec 07, 2021
Tuesday Dec 07, 2021
This is our final episode of this series on Catholic Social Justice Teaching.
In this episode Alisha, Annie, Lauren, and Stacy discuss Feminism through the lens of Rights and Responsibilities and Solidarity, both being themes of Catholic Social Justice Teaching. We discuss the roots of feminism and how the rhetoric has shifted since the 60s and 70s. We propose that we as Catholics should be working together to refocus the feminist conversation back from narrowed personal gains to that of a wider global sustainability. Helping other women be successful and setting the world ablaze with what women are.
"The world doesn't need what women have. The world needs what women are." - St. Teresa Benedicta of the Cross (St. Edith Stein)
**** Possible trigger topics that are discussed- abuse, briefly pornography and sex trafficking, abortion
