It’s “launch week” for my brand new book The Grace of Yes: Eight Virtues for Generous Living. To celebrate, we are paying tribute to seven very special examples of “The Grace of Yes in Action”, the seven winners for our “Name the Goldfish” contest. I will be making a personal donation to these organizations and invite you to keep them in your prayers as well. Please help me share the good news about each of these seven organizations by sharing them... Read more

Being Humble Helps–Sweet Tweets for 11/07/14

Last updated on: March 12, 2015 at 4:42 pm By Lisa M. Hendey

This has been an interesting week. While the rest of the world was watching election returns, I was doing my darnedest to stay off of Amazon to keep from obsessing over one little number that is for me a near occasion of sin. While I should have been praying for the poor souls in purgatory, I was unfortunately praying to avoid the dueling temptations of pride and despair. No excuses here. I’m human and unfortunately — it would seem —... Read more

Watch Donna-Marie (and me!) Tonight on EWTN

Last updated on: March 12, 2015 at 4:45 pm By Lisa M. Hendey

Last year, I was honored to visit EWTN and be a part of a very special project hosted by my good friend Donna-Marie Cooper O’Boyle. “Catholic Moms Cafe” is a five part series that has been airing all week, twice per day. The reviews for the show have been excellent, which is not surprising given Donna-Marie’s passion for supporting women and our families. My episode airs today. You actually have two chances to tune in: 6:30 pm Eastern on EWTN... Read more

Bishop Peter F. Christensen to Boise: “The Grace of Yes” in Action

Last updated on: March 12, 2015 at 4:45 pm By Lisa M. Hendey

It felt fitting today to watch a portion of the wonderful press conference announcing the naming by Pope Francis of Bishop Peter F. Christensen, as the Eighth Bishop of of the Diocese of Boise. That it came to my attention on a day when Pope Francis asked in his remarks at the Wednesday audience that the faithful pray for their bishops felt like a happy coincidence. Pope Francis diverted from his prepared remarks to say: “We understand, therefore, that it is not a... Read more

St. Charles Borromeo: “The Grace of Yes” in Action

Last updated on: March 12, 2015 at 4:45 pm By Lisa M. Hendey

It’s very funny how work on “The Grace of Yes” has helped me to see the world through different eyes. I’m always on the lookout for “The Grace of Yes in Action”. I spotted it today in the life of St. Charles Borromeo. As we read in Pictorial Lives of the Saints (emphasis mine): About fifty years after the Protestant heresy had broken out, our Lord raised up a mere youth to renew the face of His Church. In 1560...
