Latte and Laundry: A home for Catholic women, moms, and hearts + encouragement for your mighty motherhood

This week I am so delighted to sit down with my new friend Melissa Dee to discuss the universal call to holiness, the truth that we have ALL been called to sainthood.
It can often feel overwhelming or intimidating when we realize that we too, sinful and all, have been called to glorify God through our lives. And yet, most of our saint-making is often done in the hidden places.
As Saint Faustina once said, "Jesus loves hidden souls. A hidden flower is the most fragrant. I must strive to make the interior of my soul a resting place for the Heart of Jesus."
Melissa is the primary scriptwriter and producer for the new Saints Alive Podcast, a radio theater podcast for kids. But don't be fooled my friends, their podcast will not only delight your children but will also bless your own heart. Melissa, her husband Alex, and their team member Tanner have a wonderful way of telling heroic stories of the lives of the saints. Storytelling is a beautiful way to infuse our children with truth and beauty, just as the ultimate storyteller - Christ himself - has always done!

91. "But you wouldn't KNOW me"

Knowing God and knowing OF God are not the same thing.
"Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but the one who does the will of my Father who is in heaven. On that day many will say to me, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and cast out demons in your name, and do many mighty works in your name?’ And then will I declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from me" Matthew 7:21-23
We may subconsciously believe that the fact that we know a lot about our Savior means we know our Savior. And yet, the Lord desires for us to know him deeply and personally.
Through His living Word, God has revealed his true character. Our Lord is a merciful, just, compassionate, gracious, good, and loving God. He is infinitely wise and perfect and reveals himself so beautifully when we take the time to invite him into a personal relationship with us.
Let us grow in greater communion with our most perfect God so that when we leave this earth He will say to us "Yes, I knew you!"

Next Episode

93. When God Allows the Widening of our Deep Caverns

This week is a very real and raw episode for me. This episode touches very close to home for me within very intimate and hidden places in my heart. God has revealed so much to me over the last few weeks about the beautiful way in which he tends to the holes, gaps, and deep caverns of wounds and unfulfilled desires that reside in our souls.
I hope this episode blesses and encourages the weary heart, just as Christ has slowly been encouraging mine.
Blessings Friends!
