The Inner Life
Father Ryan Brady joins Patrick to discuss Celebrating Motherhood * (4:31) What is the role of Mothers in the family today? * Where do we see sacrificial element of Motherhood in the scripture? * (12:14) Rose - My mom was the best. When my mom passed recently, we didn't cry but she was a very devout Catholic. Do you think she prayed we would be at peace? What do you think? Could we be receiving those graces now? * (17:05) Barbara – My mother did so much for me. When I was little she taught me all of my prayers and I learned the Benediction songs. My mom hired a special nurse to be with me when I was in the hospital since she could not be there. (20:48) Break 1 * (22:46) Katie - Embracing the vocation of motherhood: I am holding my baby now. He is our first. I don't think you can appreciate motherhood until you become a mother. Motherhood is counter cultural. * (29:18) Motherhood for women who can’t have children * The importance of a child’s life. (38:42) Break 2 * Email – Struggling to be close to Mother Mary because of manipulative mother. * (46:09) don’t let politics get in the way of honoring your mom
