The Catholic Couple

Are You a Martha or a Mary? Finding Peace in a Busy World


Listen Later

Are you constantly busy, overwhelmed, and feeling distant from God—even though you're doing “all the right things”? In this episode, we dive into the powerful story of Martha and Mary (Luke 10:38–42) and what it means to truly slow down and sit at the feet of Jesus.

🎙️ We explore how to practice the presence of God in your everyday life—not just in church, but in the chaos of family, work, and daily responsibilities.

We also reflect on Matthew Kelly’s newest book, Slowing Down to the Speed of Joy—and how his insights on rest, joy, and intentional living tie beautifully into this Gospel story.

From Brother Lawrence’s timeless wisdom to Catechism truths and real-life examples, this episode is packed with practical tips for Catholics who are tired of the hustle and want peace rooted in Christ.

✅ Perfect for Catholics who feel overworked, distracted, or spiritually dry.
