Building the Joy Muscle

Beyond Sunday

Looking ahead to the celebration of Easter this Sunday, Rakhi and Nicole comment on what it means to live authentically joyful lives, transformed by the resurrection of Jesus. They highlight how joy can be practiced in all circumstances, despite how we feel and why living with comparison and scarcity mindsets can make it difficult for us to live joyfully. They encourage families to practice gratitude intentionally as a way of entering into the Easter season and living with true joy.

About Podcast

The demands of our different roles as Catholic spouses, parents, and working parents, can sometimes derail even the best of intentions quickly. That’s why on this podcast we talk about how parents can be more intentional in recognizing God at work in our lives, and how we as families can go deeper into our relationship with him.

Join us each week, as we talk, laugh (and sometimes cry), about our experiences in striving to weave the Sunday experience into the everyday moments of our lives.
