On November 29, 2017, Judy Comeaux was joined by Suzan Sammons to talk about the book she co-authored with her husband Eric, The Jesse Tree: An Advent Devotion. Also contributing to the conversation was Carol Wiggins, President of the St. Joseph Women's Guild in Bryan, TX. Different ideas for advent devotions were discussed, but the main focus was on making the devotions something that can be valued by each member of the family. Enjoy the show, like RED-C Catholic Radio on Facebook, and follow us on Twitter at @REDCRadio. And remember, when choosing between the values of heaven and the values of earth, always round up!
