The Punch Bowl Diaries

On this episode of The Punch Bowl Diaries, April shares more about her journey into the Catholic Church and the unexpected, beautiful ways that saying yes has impacted not only her faith, but her entire family. Along the way, there have been so many sweet moments, unexpected discoveries, and little reminders that God is always at work.
We also talk about something we’ve been learning more about ourselves: the incredible gift of the saints and angels and how we can invite them into our prayer lives as our heavenly prayer warriors. What does it actually mean to ask the saints to pray for us? How do the angels fit into our prayer life? And why does the Catholic Church encourage us to engage with heaven in this way?
It’s a conversation about saying yes, following where God leads, and discovering that sometimes the most beautiful parts of the journey are the things you never could have planned.

Pray It With Us: The Litany of Waiting
For the first time, we’re inviting you to pray with us.
This is an interactive episode of The Punch Bowl Diaries as we pray the Litany of Waiting together. Bring your prayer, your petition, the thing you’ve been waiting on, and say it out loud with us. After each petition, we’ll respond together with prayers of “Deliver me, Jesus,” and “Jesus, I will wait with You.”
The Litany of Waiting is a beautiful rhythm of bringing our requests to Jesus while also affirming His faithfulness. It’s a reminder that even when we can’t see what He is doing, He is still working. We can thank Him for the answer before we see it, trust Him in the waiting, and choose to wait with Him rather than simply wait for Him.
So find a quiet place, grab your prayer intentions, and pray this one with us. Don’t just listen. Say the responses out loud. Make this your prayer.

Have you ever felt like you’re ready to move, but God hasn’t given you the green light yet? Or maybe you’re comfortable where you are, but you know He’s telling you it’s time to go?
In Numbers 9:22–23, the Israelites didn’t get a timeline. The cloud could stay for two days, a month, or even longer. They simply had to watch for God’s direction and follow when He said move.
In this episode, we’re talking about the tension of waiting, moving, staying, and trusting God’s timing. Because sometimes the hardest part isn’t knowing where God is leading. It’s being willing to stay put until He says it’s time to go.

What if God is bringing something new into your life, but you’re still holding onto the old? In Leviticus 26:9–10, God promises fruitfulness and abundance, but He also tells His people to clear out the old to make room for the new. In this episode, we’re talking about recognizing when a season has served its purpose, letting go of what no longer belongs, and trusting God enough to make room for what He has next.

In this episode of The Punch Bowl Diaries, we’re diving into the beautiful history and spiritual significance behind this powerful Catholic devotion. The 54 Day Rosary Novena begins on August 15, the Feast of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary, and ends on October 7, the Feast of Our Lady of the Rosary.
We’ll talk about where the devotion began, the story of Fortuna Agrelli and Our Lady of Pompeii, and why the 54 days are divided into 27 days of petition followed by 27 days of thanksgiving.
But more than just the history, we’re talking about what it means to pray with perseverance and surrender. To bring the deepest desires of our hearts before God and then trust Him with the outcome. To give thanks before we know what the answer will be.
Because sometimes the miracle isn’t that the circumstance changes. Sometimes the miracle is what God changes in us while we wait.
If you’re praying for something right now, carrying an unanswered prayer, or simply needing a reminder to trust God’s timing, this episode is for you.
Pick up your Rosary, bring your intentions to Jesus, and remember: keep praying, keep trusting, and let God take care of the rest.
