Episode 31: Real Women, Real Stories, Beth Groonell

Join us for our four-part series, Real Women, Real Stories. In each episode, Lisa Brenninkmeyer and Laura Phelps sit down to chat with a woman who has inspired and challenged them to grow in their faith and relationship with the Lord. Knowing each woman personally, they have been able to see up close the way that her relationship with God has transformed her heart and changed her life. These women are strong, wise, and tenderhearted. They teach us that every one of us has a story, and every story matters. Lisa and Laura love these women, and you will, too! <br />

Invite Him in with this episode’s questions for reflection.<br />
Do you find yourself looking at an aspect of your life (maybe your marriage, children, career) and thinking, “This wasn’t how it was supposed to be?” <br />
<br />
Go to Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament (if you can) and bring it to the Lord. Ask Him, “What are you inviting me into, Jesus? What virtue, what lesson do you need me to learn?”<br />
