From the publisher
A place to discuss all things Catholic marriage! Married life is messy! Hosted by Francine Pirola and Laura Cain, our live conversations seek to go deeper into the mystery - and the messy reality - of living Catholic marriage. With our guests, we explore love, marriage, family and living our Catholic faith. We've set our sights on heaven but our real and honest conversations keep our feet on the ground. We've had our triumphs and struggles and so have our guests. For smarter or dumber, for happy or grumpy, in abundance and scarcity - we're ready to talk!
