The Gathering Place, a Podcast from Blessed is She

Today we're talking about another BIS Core Value — Beauty.

What is true beauty? How do we view ourselves and others imperfectly, and how could we instead see every soul as beautiful as God does? Join us as we talk all things aesthetics, insecurity, femininity, and the beauty of our simple, ordinary lives.

One of the most important things to us at Blessed is She (and in the Catholic Church) is the Word of God. Scripture nourishes our daily lives, so we read it to learn and listen to the sound of His voice every single day.

This season of the Gathering Place is all about our Core Values at BIS, one of which is the Word! Read more about them: https://blessedisshe.net/pages/about

Let's open up the conversation about our BODIES. What do we think about bodies? Whose voice do we hear when we look at our bodies?

We're going to explore this topic of our bodies this month in our Member Community, and we'd love to do it alongside you. Not as women who have all the answers, but as women seeking truth WITH you.

Do you need a break?!? What would that look like if you were offered REST?

In today's video, we just want to pray with you! Join us in a short chat about our inner rooms and how we can converse with the Lord continually throughout our daily lives. Then, Steph leads us through a 5-minute meditative prayer to do just that, together.

​.... but I'm too busy! How many times have we found ourselves using our business as an excuse for why we can't do things? When you're greeted by a friend and asked how you're doing, is your answer along the lines of "I'm good, just busy.." ? You're not alone, friend. Being busy seems like a norm or standard for feeling productive. But at what expense?
