Our Path to Sainthood
Posted by Lisa Hendey in News on Thursday, November 03, 2011
This week on the Faith & Family Live Cast (click here to listen or click on the player above), Rachel, Elizabeth and I have a wonderful conversation about my brand new book, A Book of Saints for Catholic Moms. We have a great conversation about the main points of my book, but also about our own personal call to sainthood. We look at how we moms are called to sanctity and some of the struggles we face...

Who Is Your Favorite Saint?
Posted by Lisa Hendey in Faith on Tuesday, November 01, 2011
This year, more than ever, All Saints Day feels to me like a major celebration. Perhaps it’s because I’ve been so immersed in the lives of the saints due to the launch of my new book, A Book of Saints for Catholic Moms - the virtual “book tour” I’ve been enjoying has me answering the question “Who is your favorite saint?” multiple times per day.
And the truth is, every time I’m asked the question... READ MORE
A Book Is Born
Posted by Lisa Hendey in Just me on Thursday, September 29, 2011
I just had to share my excitement at seeing the following video, posted by my friends at Ave Maria Press, home of my new book A Book of Saints for Catholic Moms. This video was shot by my publisher and friend Tom Grady, who knows how excited I am by the physical process of books! You can see the book running through the machines and heading into boxes to be shipped in a few weeks. To order your copy now, visit Amazon or Aquinas & More—your support is greatly appreciated!
Vatican VBS

With “back to school” season upon us, it may seem like a funny time to be talking about Vacation Bible School. But the truth of the matter is that this is the time of the year where parishes and homeschool groups are making their curriculum decisions for NEXT summer! So I wanted to share with you the good news I received from Susan Lawson, marketing director at www.GrowingWithTheSaints.com. Susan... READ MORE
There Be Forgiveness

Have you seen There Be Dragons?
I haven’t, and a few reviews from people I respect have suggested it’s not that successful as a film.
One complaint I’ve heard frequently is that if you’re looking for a biopic of St. Escriva, you’ll be disappointed. Though his life and character are apparently treated with realism and sensitivity, the bulk of the story actually centers on his foil, and many seem to... READ MORE
Giving Thanks for Blessed John Paul II
Posted by Lisa Hendey in Faith on Wednesday, May 04, 2011
Continuing on with sharing a few of the events of my journey to Rome with you, I next want to unfold for you the story of my attendance at Monday’s Mass of Thanksgiving for the newly beatified Blessed John Paul II.
My day started off like a dream, when my good friend and fellow Catholic blogger Brandon Vogt shared the ticket he wouldn’t be using for the Mass due to his alternative plans. Before I... READ MORE
Beatification Of Pope John Paul II: My View
Posted by Lisa Hendey in Faith on Monday, May 02, 2011
I am sorry for the delay in posting this column on the Beatification of Blessed John Paul II, but the internet connection here in the Vatican and Rome has been sketchy, and honestly I’ve just been going non-stop for the past 48 hours. My time here has contained so many “pinch me, I’m dreaming” moments that I may miss a few, but I thought it would be fun to share a few of them with you. For more, be... READ MORE

Are you getting excited about the beatification of Pope John Paul II on Sunday?
In my CNA column this week I shared a couple of personal memories of him.
What are yours?
I would love to hear how his teaching or witness affected your life.

Saints, Feasting and Fasting
Posted by Lisa Hendey in News on Thursday, March 17, 2011
This week on the podcast (click here to listen or click on the player above), Sarah and Rebecca are joined by Jennifer Fulwiler of Conversion Diary. This week, we celebrate the feasts of St. Patrick and St. Joseph. Sarah recently shared a sweet reflection about St. Joseph, in light of being a mom of boys. How about you? Does your family celebrate these saints in any special ways? St. Joseph seems... READ MORE
