    The Sin of Scandal with Desirae Sifuentes

    The Sin of Scandal with Desirae Sifuentes

    Desirae Sifuentes grew up largely ignorant to her faith, and her journey led her to passionately pursue her own catechesis. After many challenging years, she chose to seek a theology degree and work to bridge the gap between low-level and high-level catechesis.
    Follow her on Instagram, TikTok, and X at @uncatechizedcatholic to grow, learn, and defend your catholic faith. You can jumpstart your own faith formation by getting her free ultimate catechesis guide when you subscribe to her email list, which you can find here!

    Ep 31: How to Handle Medical Freedom Conversations with Family & Friends

    Ep 31: How to Handle Medical Freedom Conversations with Family & Friends

    Micaela Darr has taught me pretty much everything I know about informed consent, how to handle it with grace, and how to fight for our parental rights.

    Today we discuss how, or even if, to have these conversations with grace. We also dive into a Catholic POV look at abortion tainted vaccines, and what the Vatican says about our options.

    She was kind enough to share many resources with us that are linked below!

    -State laws regarding exemptions: https://www.nvic.org/ 
    -Aborted fetal cells and what the Vatican has said: https://cogforlife.org
    -Contraindications, risks of side effects, efficacy of vaccines, etc resources: https://vaccine.guide/, https://www.justtheinserts.com, https://www.fda.gov/vaccines-blood-biologics/vaccines
    -Decline of disease mortality in the 20th century. Resources: https://vaccine.guide/necessity-of-vaccination/

Poignant

Bridget always finds such good guests! I’m so glad to have found her and her IG. I thought I was informed but she keeps on showing me more and how to go just a bit deeper

Great content

I love all of Bridget’s content - here on the podcast as well as on Instagram and over on her Substack. Great solid Catholic content. It’s great to stay up to date on current affairs and I love the focus on Church news.
