In this episode of The Catholic Bookworm, Kiki Latimer interviews Fr. Jerome Magat on his books Honoring the Covenant: Daily Mass Gospel Meditations for Busy Married Couples and Honoring the Covenant: Sunday, Solemnity, and Feast Day Mass Meditations for Busy Married Couples.Concerning Honoring the Covenant: Daily Mass Gospel Meditations for Busy Married Couples: Couples are incredibly busy—so busy that there’s always a temptation to make spiritual growth an afterthought or a future project once the children have left or retirement sets in. And even for married persons who are open to spiritual growth, the tendency is to focus upon praying as individuals, not on praying as a couple. To remedy this gap, Honoring the Covenant contains meditations that are simple, direct, and practical. They are designed for couples who want to make time to pray together and are seeking brief and meaningful insights into the Gospel reading of the day vis à vis their married life. https://www.amazon.com/Honoring-Covenant-Meditations-Married-Couples/dp/B0CNNZHMTB/ Concerning Honoring the Covenant: Sunday, Solemnity, and Feast Day Mass Meditations for Busy Married Couples: Couples are incredibly busy—so busy that those who are growing with Honoring the Covenant: Daily Mass Gospel Meditations for Busy Married Couples requested a collection of meditations for the rest of the liturgical year!
