Catholic Art and Family Feuds

This week on the podcast (click here to listen or click on the player above), Danielle, Rebecca and I revisit Rebecca’s recent post on the Church and the Arts.  What do you think about Barbara Nicolosi’s points in this interview?  What can we do in our homes to support the arts, to engage our children in a love of art and to view the Gospel message related in the world of creativity?

Danielle shares this weeks Faith & Family Feature Product, What I Wish Someone Had Told Me about the First Five Years of Marriage by Roy Petitfils.  Along with being a great present for the newlyweds in your life, this book is a terrific resource for any married couple looking to strengthen their relationship.

In our final segment, we revisit my recent post on Family Faith Feuds.  Many of us have been noting a recent trend in Facebook being a place for religious debate and discussion.  We discuss how to charitably handle online “attacks”, when it’s appropriate to address them “in real life” and why it’s important to stand up for the Truth.  Have you been in this situation, and how did you respond?

Registration is now open for our Faith & Family Mom’s Day Away event on October 30.  Click here for information and registration details.

We LOVE sharing your feedback!  You can call and send us a message on our new listener feedback line at 1-413- FAITH-55 (or 1-413-324-8455).  Leave us a comment, a question, a suggestion, or your own thoughts about topics we’ve discussed in our podcasts, or simply leave a comment here at the blog.  We’d love to hear from you!
