If you’re stressed or anxious, you can find great comfort in the famous phrase from Saint Pope John Paul II: “Be not afraid … Open wide the doors to Christ!”
In this episode of All Things Catholic, Dr. Sri explains the meaning behind Saint Pope John Paull II’s words and shares a simple way you can begin bringing your fears and anxieties to Christ in prayer. Once you surrender those fears to Christ, you might be surprised at the amazing plan that unfolds.

When people talk about the rosary, there is so much one can say. I appreciate the Christ-focused aspects. I know some people can list countless miracles or success stories tied to the rosary (Lepanto, the woman who was spared from Ted Bundy's attack, etc.). Some people can dig deep into the myteries. One thing that stands out to me is that outsiders/non-Catholics HEAR Mary's name many times. But because rosaries involve the meditations on Jesus, many people don't realize just how Christ-centered it is, even if no words were prayed out loud. Sometimes I think it would be good for someone to gather some of the insights that people have gained while praying the rosary. I know it's really deepened my views and understanding of the various mysteries.
Great talk on Saturday.
Thank you so much for blessing us with new connections to Mary and the Bible! It really gave new light to some of the presentations in our CGS Atrium today at school.
Great picture
Today is my birthday on Annunciation. How special to wake up to see these pictures. God graces me again via you, Dr Edward Sri! Maybe one year I will be there to celebrate Annunciation and my birthday together.
LOVE ME SOME YESHUA!!!!!!!
Amen!!!
Wow! Thank you for sharing 🙏
Amen
My prayers are with you🙏
I love Persuasion!
How absolutely delightful.
Totally agree with Lewis! Austen shows that virtue is the goal and that others, when we allow them, can promote real change and conversion in ourselves! Ascension press should do a Beth Stein edition of a Jane Austen novel that includes recipes and discussion questions on how to lead a Jane Austen party!
I love this so much!!!
Wonderful! How inspiring!
Great idea!
Love this idea!
I am sure she encourages them to read the books beforehand. :-) Just about every film version of Jane Austen adds romance, while the author was not romantic at all. Her books were amazing analyses of humanity that transcend time, and still teach us today about virtue and so much more.
That is so cool, what a great idea.
How wonderful!
Do you have a resource available for this?
Wish I could have been there
One of my favorite memories from being out there in Denver!
Oh, I’d love to attend! How do we find out more?
I also love Jane Austen and every time i see the movie of Sense and sendibility is always a new revelation
Lovely!
That is so fun! My daughter would love this! How do we find out more to have her participate sometime?
Jane Austen is wonderful. Can she bring this out to CA? 😁
Does she do these in other states?
What a great idea 💡!
Isabel Padolina we need to do this!!
Regency Marketplace
