Culture Tuesday: Finding the Way with St Clare and a Trucker's Atlas

from Radio Maria England · host Radio Maria UK

This episode of Culture Tuesday, Helena marked the feast day of St Clare of Assisi and asked what it really means to let God guide you. St Clare left behind wealth and comfort to follow a path she could not fully see. Most of us will never be asked to do anything so dramatic. But we are asked, again and again, to trust a way that is not our own. Helena brings that thought back down to earth with a story from this summer's family holiday to Devon. The smartphone stayed hidden away for the week and a trucker's road atlas took its place, spread out across laps and squinted at around every roundabout. No recalculating voice. No blue dot. Just a family working out the way together, one page at a time.What happens when you swap instant direction for something slower? What do you notice when you actually have to look? Join Helena as she connects St Clare's radical trust with a week of wrong turns, family bickering over map pages and the small everyday grace of finding your way home.Tune in to Culture Tuesday for faith, culture and a reminder that sometimes the best guidance is the kind you have to work for.
