Why does Chris hate “Sleepless in Seattle”? Can a Nancy Meyers interior atone for her characters’ abominable moral choices? Does Gen Z’s attitude’s towards boundaries make for bad movies with uninspiring heroes? And what difference does it make to our world that so many bad movies have wormed their way into our cultural imagination? We’re talking about all that and more, this week on “Visitation Sessions.”

The quality of chocolate sold in America is going downhill rapidly. So is the quality of refrigerators. And shoes. And clothes. And coffeepots. And just about everything else you can buy. Why is this? Why does it matter? And why should Christians in particular care about the “encrappification” of everything? That’s what we’re talking about this week, on Visitation Sessions.
Want to spend a week having conversations like this one (only with croissants, wine, and a lot more noise from little ones)? Then join Emily and Chris next summer, from June 17 to 25, as we explore the cities and shrines of saints in France. Solo travelers, couples, friends, and whole families with children of any age are welcome!

This week, the Visitation Sessions crew sits down with Rebekah Cohen Morris, executive director of AIM Women’s Center, and convert to the Catholic faith. Like the Fresh Prince of Bel Air, her story begins in West Philadelphia. Her journey to Catholicism led her from a high-powered life as a Protestant lawyer in Atlanta, GA to the streets of Steubenville, OH where she is the Executive Director of the Aim Women’s Center. This episode is the first of a two part series.

Catholic Answers recently tackled a question about whether or not Catholics can, in good conscience, take their families to the beach. This week, on Visitation Sessions, we’re talking about what their answer was lacking, what really constitutes a near occasion of sin, and why going to the beach may be the best reality check there is for people who struggle with objectifying women’s bodies.

The ever-reaching tentacles of AI are EVERYWHERE these days, and Pope Leo has finally given us some insights and moral considerations in his recent Encyclical Magnifica Humanitas.
All of us on the far-flung corners of the globe currently are pouring through his writings, preparing for a future episode. This week, Emily is busily lecturing in the kitchen of a medieval monastery, and has assigned her students the same article we’re sharing with you.

As the age of AI dawns, how do you hold on to your capacity to think, write, focus, empathize, and do all the things proper to human persons? According to some folks, the answer is friction-maxxing — otherwise known as going out of your way to do human things the old-fashioned way. This week, we’re chatting about the nature and benefits of friction-maxxing … and whether it’s actually necessary for parents of small children.

The World As We Know It Is Falling Away by Jane Greer
Love Like a Conflagration by Jane Greer
Micha-el By Jane Greer You lull yourselves with dimple-handed cherubs simpering in your étagère half-naked; small-breasted maidens, tissue-winged and swooning there on your desktop; all those complacent fleshy pastel eunuchs posing with harp or horn on the Christmas mantel: you underestimate to your own peril Whom we have come from, Whom we are acting for, and it’s too late now: suddenly it’s too late to ask for mercy. Mercy is what you’ll get—His wide-armed mercy— but you won’t like it. He has been with you, at your elbow, lovesick, down the millennia. He knows you deeply, yet still encumbers your black hearts with blessings. Willing unwillful swain, He has wept and waited while you mocked Him. Finally, now, the muscles of His jawline clench and unclench beneath that holy shadow: Enough is enough. Don’t act as though some game’s been played unfairly: He’s never skimped on prophets since He breathed you out of the mud and on your way to Heaven— yours for the asking— but you were too intent on what you’d crawled from. You can’t begin to dream what you’ve rejected, what we would give to need His fierce salvation, require His dying …. Love like a conflagration shall be yours now; love like an April river, like a temblor; love like an avalanche, a midnight bomb-blast, finding you hidden, shrieking the air with shards of stained-glass windows; love like a sunstorm, sweeping before it nations, continents, galaxies, and all your hubris. Yes, say your prayers now. This is your Precious Moment, I its angel, angry and dark and terrible. God With Us, Emmanu-el, comes bearing yet more mercy, but you won’t like it.

This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit visitationsessions.substack.comLast week, we couldn’t record our podcast because Emily had no voice. Not a raspy voice. Not a hoarse voice. Quite literally no voice. This week, we can’t record because the Stapletons are sailing the high seas sans Internet with Casey’s family. We’ll be back to our regularly scheduled programming next week, but in the meantime, we have a treat for you.
Right before they set sail, Kate and Casey recorded a conversation for our full subscribers about their newest documentary, “The Good Neighbor,” which tells the true story of a cowboy doctor from Wisconsin, who rides on horseback to serve the Amish. This week, full subscribers not only get to hear that conversation, but watch the documentary itself.
Because it documentary is currently on the film festival circuit, it can’t be available to the general public just yet. But if you click the little button below and join the loyal band of supporters who make this podcast possible, that pesky paywall will just go away. It’s like magic!
