Acerca de esta escucha
Winner of a 2016 Association of Catholic Publishers Excellence in Publishing Award: Inspirational Books (First Place).
In this edgy, honest, and often audacious book of Catholic spirituality, blogger and popular podcaster Maria Morera Johnson explores the qualities of 24 holy women who lived lives of virtue in unexpected and often difficult circumstances.
In My Badass Book of Saints, Johnson shares her experience as a first-generation Cuban-American, educator of at-risk college students, and caregiver for a husband with Lou Gehrig's disease. Through humorous, empowering, and touching portraits of 24 spiritual mentors who inspired her, Johnson describes how their bravery, integrity, selflessness, perseverance, and hope helped her and can help others have courage to reach for a closer connection to God.
She presents remarkable holy women and saints - including the gun-toting Servant of God Sr. Blandina Segale who tried to turn the heart of Billy the Kid and Nazi resister Irena Sendler who helped smuggle children out of the Warsaw Ghetto during World War II - in a way that brings their vivid personalities to life and helps listeners live out the challenges of their lives with virtue and conviction.

Is it possible to be both a Catholic and a feminist? Claire Swinarski, writer and creator of The Catholic Feminist podcast, believes it is: "I'm a feminist for the same reason I'm bold and honest and sometimes ragey: because Jesus was all of those things." In Girl, Arise!, Swinarski reconciles the two identities by demonstrating the strength and abilities women have to share with the Body of Christ, the importance of women throughout the history of the faith, and how the love you experience through Christ and the Church can change you and the world around you.

Being a Catholic hipster is all about an attitude - an attitude grounded in being part of a countercultural community of believers dedicated to something bigger than themselves in a world dominated by self-centeredness. It’s about yearning to learn more about the faith by seeking out “Catholic cool” - overlooked saints, forgotten prayers and feast days, and traditional practices long set aside by mainstream believers. The Catholic Hipster Handbook will help listeners realize the only way to go against what’s normal and accepted in the culture is to be authentically Catholic.

The story of Roman Catholicism has never followed a singular path. In no time period has this been more true than over the last two centuries. Beginning with the French Revolution, extending to the Second Vatican Council in the 1960s, and concluding with present-day crises, John T. McGreevy chronicles the dramatic upheavals and internal divisions shaping the most multicultural, multilingual, and global institution in the world. Through powerful stories and sweeping birds-eye views, Catholicism provides a mesmerizing assessment of the Church's complex role in modern history.

Every one of us is made in the image of God. We are unique, we are worthy of love, and we are called to greatness. In this world, though, it can be easy to be distracted from that truth and begin to doubt God's love is real. We live in a world that tells us we are not smart enough, not pretty enough, not sexy enough, not rich enough, not thin enough, and don't have enough friends.

Why I Am Catholic traces Brandon Vogt’s spiritual journey that culminated in the realization that Catholicism was right about a lot of things and serves as a compelling reproposal of the Church for former Catholics; a persuasive argument for truth and beauty to those who have become jaded and disenchanted with religion; and at the same time offers practicing Catholics a much-needed dose of confidence and clarity to affirm their faith against an increasingly skeptical culture.

Decades before Vatican II called for the sanctification of the laity, St. Elizabeth of the Trinity prophetically claimed that holiness is not exclusively the domain of priests and nuns but is truly for everyone. God created the human soul to be a special channel of His grace on earth and to serve as a unique image of His love. Few saints have spoken to hearts as acutely as St. Elizabeth of the Trinity, who has helped even the busiest, weariest, and most distracted of us create an inner chamber within our souls where we can rest in God’s peace and love.

Forgiveness will unleash a power in your life that is underrated and often ignored. It is underrated mainly because it is underused. We fail to capture the power of forgiveness because we are afraid of it, because we have grown comfortable in our familiar wounds, or because we are sinfully stubborn. But the power is there waiting for us. This little book, and the 11 real life stories in it, will help you capture that power. Because everybody needs to forgive somebody.

Awesome Book!
This is a great way to introduce some of our incredible saints. It really describes their character and virtues in an entertaining way. I love how Maria shows how each saint has personally added to her journey. We all need saints in our lives to help us everyday and Maria introduces us to some good ones we may turn to.

Yeah for Women Saints!
I love this book. The presentation is great! The material is great, written with just enough Sass to make you laugh out loud. As a new Catholic it was educational, enlightening and made me love the idea that Saints weren't at all stuffy, perfect or otherwise out of reach to the mere woman. GREAT Book, couldn't wait to jump in the car to commute home every night to listen.

Love this book!!! 2nd go around and I keep learning more each time. Great way to get interested in Saints of all kinds learning just a little to go off and learn more able all the amazing women in this book. They did a really good job of incorporating personal life story’s with Saints of the past and not so distant past. A nice short read but opens up to hours of discussion.

This is an uplifting book with a mixture of the writer's personal experiences with stories of Catholic female saints. The writer's personal stories are experiences the majority of us can relate to. The saint stories are inspirational.
