## Resource

Last week’s episode * inspired a listener to email about the lack of natural family planning (NFP) education, which is a small part of the bigger picture: are you ready to say “yes” to God in the work he’s calling you to do? This week Mike talks about: * Feasts and saints of the week * The listener’s email * Trusting God’s grace * Get up, go out, go do Pray your Rosary! *Last week in Episode 44, Mike talked about the Catholics who disagree with the Catholic Church’s teaching on birth control, using it as an example of how people use logical fallacies and cognitive biases to arrive at—and then defend—erroneous viewpoints.
