  • Sacred Art in an AI world & Introducing Compline to your night prayer
    Feb 24 2026

    What does it mean to be a Sacred Artist in a world driven by speed, screens, and AI?

    In this powerful and gentle conversation, Gwyneth Thompson-Briggs shares her journey into the preserved trade of sacred art — a life rooted in reverence, discipline, prayer, and truth.

    We explore:

    1. What makes sacred art truly sacred
    2. Whether AI can ever replicate real sacred art
    3. How beauty forms faith
    4. And how families can begin praying Compline night prayer together

    Gwyneth’s sacred artwork is featured in TAN Books’ new release, A Very Little Office of Compline: Night Prayer for Children, a beautiful introduction to night prayer for little ones and grown-ups alike.

    This episode is a reminder that sacred art and sacred prayer orient our everyday moments toward heaven — helping us live a faith that is vibrant, embodied, and alive.

  • Never Miss a Feast Day Again: A Simple Digital Liturgical Calendar (with The Little Rose Shop)
    Feb 17 2026

    What if living liturgically could feel simple… seamless… and beautifully woven into your everyday life?

    In this episode of Living LIT — Living In Truth, I’m joined by Raquel from the Little Rose Shop to talk about a brilliant tool her team has created-the first of it's kind: a digital liturgical living calendar designed to sync directly with the digital calendar you already use.

    Yes — right into your everyday planner. 🙌

    The Little Rose Shop’s digital calendar makes it easy to bring the rhythm of the Church year into your home without adding one more complicated system to manage. (And it's free) Once synced, it flows right into your daily schedule — gently reminding you when we pause to celebrate a feast, honor a saint, or enter into a special moment in the life of the Church.

    And it’s not just dates.

    Each entry includes short, helpful tidbits about the feast or saint, giving you context for what we’re celebrating — along with simple ideas for how you might mark the day in your home.

    Because liturgical living doesn’t have to be elaborate to be meaningful.

    If you’re longing to Live LITurgical — but need a little help remembering when and what to celebrate and observe — this tool may be exactly what you’ve been looking for.

    First Digital Liturgical Calendar That Syncs to Your Phone

  • From Scrubs to Sacred Ground: A Nurse's Pilgrimage to Lourdes (with Anneliese Glickley)
    Feb 10 2026

    What happens when a vocation of healing meets holy ground?

    In this episode of Living LIT—Living In Truth, Robyn is joined by Anneliese Glickley, a special guest who recently returned from a pilgrimage to Lourdes, France, where she served as a nurse accompanying a pilgrim (patient) seeking healing. This powerful conversation invites listeners to see pilgrimage not simply as travel, but as liturgy in motion — a sacred rhythm of prayer, service, sacrifice, and encounter with Christ. From the quiet grace of the Grotto to moments of profound faith among the sick and suffering, Lourdes reveals how heaven continues to touch earth through Our Lady’s loving intercession.

    Together, we explore:

    *What makes Lourdes such a unique and sacred place

    *Experiencing Mary’s maternal presence and message of conversion

    *Serving the sick as an act of worship

    *Pilgrimage as a way of living liturgically

    *Bringing the graces of Lourdes home

    *How everyday life becomes holy ground when offered to Christ

    Whether you’ve been on pilgrimage, hope to go someday, or are learning how to live your faith more intentionally right where you are, this episode will encourage you to recognize sacred ground in the ordinary — and to walk with Mary as she leads us always to her Son, Our Lord.
