We are continuing a series of six Podcasts looking at Light and Darkness - Courage and Faith - Healing and Hope through a Marian Lens. Each episode features an event in Mary's life and a particular image we have chosen to prayerfully reflect on together. This Podcast Series accompanies the launching of the Third Edition of my book: Surviving Depression: A Catholic Approach. In today's episode we explore the first things you'll want to do to survive depression, what the journey is like, and how the Church and your faith can assist and support your search for healing. We are leaning into our Marian gaze by reflecting on the Nativity.

Celebrating Easter under quarantine was undoubtedly a strange experience for many Catholics. As our world struggles more sharply with suffering and death, it’s nearly impossible to take hope in the Resurrection. Yet that is what Christ calls us to do. On this episode of The Road to Emmaus, Scott Hahn reminds us that because of Christ’s Resurrection, death is not the end.

This week's episode is from an old program I used to have, but it is still relevant.  We just celebrated Easter Sunday and the resurrection of our Lord.  The resurrection is the key to Christianity.  In this week's episode I briefly discuss three proofs of it.
