Community Episodes

Hosts Lisa and Shelly sit down with Domenic Bettinelli, the CEO of StarQuest Media (SQPN), to explore how a unique network of Catholic podcasters is tackling the challenge of bringing positivity, meaning, and connection to both faith-filled and searching audiences—right in the middle of modern media’s landscape.

Lisa and Shelly are joined by Mary Beth Eberhard—a mom of eight and master of authentic gatherings—who shares personal stories and honest confessions about letting go of entertaining pressure, embracing the “holy mess” of family life, and finding Christ in every guest at your door. If you’re longing for deeper community, more spiritual meaning in your home, or just some encouragement to invite others in as you are, this is the perfect listen.
