Home But Not Alone

Today on Home But Not Alone, we’re going to chat about how to talk to your kids about sex.

Tim is a total Theology of the Body guru, and together with his wife they run a ministry called “Chaste Love” - all about promoting the virtue of chastity in all stages of life! Tim is going to share his insight with us today, and help us have the tools we need to talk to our kids about sex in healthy, holy, age appropriate ways.

Warning: This is a show that you’ll probably want to listen to without your kids around.

Today we chat about the theology of our favorite Princess movies! When watching movies with our kids, we tend to look deep sometimes - probably deeper than the movie creators intended.

We know you're going to love this theological spin on some favorite classic princess movies.

Today we chat about how to make it through the Mass with kids.

I know that sounds dire, but as parents we all have those days - especially when our kids are little! - when it seems that all that we can do is make. it. through. the Mass.

We want to share our tips to help you get through Mass, and hopefully to help you find more peace and reverence when attending Mass with your kids.

Tim reminds us that it's more important to make it TO MASS than to make it THROUGH MASS. And he has some great advice for adjusting your attitude to bring you more peace as you manage Mass with kids.

Sara has some practical tips and tricks to have up your sleeve when attending Mass with littles.

What's the significance of blessing ourselves with holy water upon entering the church? What does the "Lamb of God" really mean? Learn the answer to these questions, plus some interesting facts about the Traditional Latin Mass, and more in today's episode.
