Have you ever gone 10 waking hours without your cellphone? We did this weekend. . . at the Masters. It isn't an option if you get to attend this prestigious event. We learned many things not only about golf and the Masters, but what happens when we unplug for a day.

This is our introduction episode to music. We talk a little about our early love for music, how we got hooked onto Classical Music, but most importantly, how our experience of music makes us aware of our own humanity and our quest for the infinite.

Luigi Giussani

We discuss our best vacations and how we now try to make great vacations for families from all over the US at Heart Ridge.

It's the gift of rest and rejuvenation that God gives to each and everyone of us every week. Why do we neglect this? And what exactly should we do on Sunday? What are Sabbathy things?

This is a short excerpt of a talk given by Sr. Virginia Joy at the Belonging Women's Conference in 2024 in South Carolina. She has some "heart lines" connecting her to us and Heart Ridge, so we thought we'd share just a taste of her inspiring message.
