This is an interview I did on Martha Martha, my Catholic mom podcast, but the more I think about it, the more I wanted to share it here. My not-Catholic listeners seem to not mind the Catholic tangents I go on regularly, so here it is, guns ablazing.
Father Harrison is just too good not to share with this larger audience.
A fabulous interview with my dear friend Father Harrison, who podcasts over at https://www.clericallyspeaking.com/!
We delve into the Catechism of the Catholic Church...what is it, where did it come from and how it can teach us to be better parents...what is our role as Christians parents in educating our children. Father brings so much depth into the words of the Catechism, I'm so grateful for him helping me to unpack and understand my role better.
