Keepin' it Catholic with Kim

Life has a way of pulling us out of our routines. Vacation, family visits, travel, storms, and the unexpected can slowly cause us to drift—not just from our schedules, but from our prayer life as well. In this episode, I share my own experience of getting off track this summer, a quote that challenged me to rethink what it means to be committed to prayer, and a few of the Catholic resources that h...

What do a locked camper, a bin full of keys, and a locksmith have to do with our faith? More than I ever expected! After Doug and I accidentally locked ourselves out of our RV, we spent hours trying key after key, convinced the next one would be the one that worked. It got me thinking about how often we do the same thing in life—searching for peace, purpose, happiness, and fulfillment in all the w...

The disciples walked with Jesus and didn’t even recognize Him… and sometimes, we do...

In this episode, I...

Why am I Catholic? Not just because I was raised that way… but because I chose it. In this first episode, I’m sharing my story—how I grew up Catholic, struggled to truly understand my faith, and eventually made the decision to dive deeper instead of picking and choosing what I believed. I talk about how some of my biggest doubts became the foundation of my strongest faith, and how powerful parts o...
