Summary

Fr. Jeffrey Kirby, an author, speaker, and host of Morning Offering With Fr. Kirby, joins us this week to talk about the power of prayer, especially the power of praying the Morning Offering every day and offering your day as a gift to God. Fr. Kirby shares especially about the value of offering up our suffering, something that praying every morning can help us to do. At the end of today’s show, Danielle shares emails from Cheryl and Barb who, after listening to the recent episode about life-changing books, have titles they want to recommend for summer reading.

Kirby on YouTube Snippet From the Show “If we take these sufferings and anxieties and we offer them to the Lord, then it's called redemptive suffering, and they're not wasted. Moments of anxiety, frustration, concern, whatever it might be – they're given to the Lord and they actually have spiritual power.” - Fr. Jeffrey Kirby For episode shownotes visit www.goodcatholic.com.

0:00.0	Girlfriends, episode number 380. Start your day with God and Father Kirby.
0:07.2	Hello and welcome to Girlfriends. I'm Danielle Bean. I'm a wife and a mom and I'm on a mission to help you.
0:13.5	Know your worth is a woman so you can find peace, balance, and joy in family living.
0:17.9	This week, Father Jeffrey Kirby is joining me from the morning offering podcast. A lot of
0:22.6	great insight and information and resources to share with you here today. Let's get started.
0:32.5	Hey, girlfriend, how are you? Thank you so much for being here. I am thrilled to be connecting with you right here on the podcast. How's your summer going? We're like halfway through or so. Or if you live down south, you're probably already thinking back to school. Way up here in the north, we are not. And we're just hoping it's going to stop raining sometime soon. But, you know,
0:55.2	summertime is a great time to kind of reset your prayer life. And for me, I've typically really
1:01.1	enjoyed kind of incorporating outdoor time for prayer. There was one year I kind of made a rosary
1:06.2	walk in our woods. Some people like to make a Marian prayer garden, but just, you know, praying in
1:11.7	different places is more possible in the summertime, especially here. So being outdoors for that
1:17.5	kind of thing is something that I've been looking at doing in recent days and recent weeks. And I wonder
1:23.4	how it's going for you. You know, a few episodes ago, we talked about this idea of like making the most
1:28.5	of your summer and spiritually speaking what that might look like for you. And one thing that I really
1:34.4	want to recommend to you as part of your summer spiritual experience in kind of a fun way and kind of a
1:40.3	relaxed way is a summer series of sessions that we are having available from Good
1:45.3	Catholics. If you go over to GoodCatholic.com and click on the events tab, you can get all of
1:49.4	the information about it. But basically, we have three upcoming events that are going to be
1:53.1	over the course of the next several weeks here in the summertime. I'm focused on different
1:58.6	topics. So the first one is going to take place on July 26th. And that's
2:04.2	going to be in the evening, 8 p.m. to 9.30 p.m. Eastern time. And it's going to be focused on the topic
2:09.7	of overcoming anxiety, Dr. Mario Sikasa. And then today's podcast guest, Father Jeffrey Kirby,
2:15.2	are going to be the participants in that live virtual event.
