In this episode of The Cordial Catholic, I'm joined by husband and wife Catholic power couple Katie and Tommy McGrady to talk about their work on First Reconciliation, First Communion, and on raising authentic, enthusiastic Catholic families. We talk about the importance of approaching those first sacraments as a family, the joy and impetus of passing on the faith, and how to approach the Church as a Catholic convert with a young family, seeking to catechize well. This was such a joyful conversation – we hope you enjoy it! For more from Katie and Tommy check out their books from Ave Maria Press . You can listen to Katie on Sirius Satellite Radio's Catholic Channel and her podcast, Ave Explores . You can listen to their Family Mass Prep on the Hallow app . Send your feedback to
