Upcoming Courses
NEW Fall Online Course
This course will be an exploration of the anthropology of the female person in light of her innate authority demonstrated through her influence, power, and effect as portrayed in Sacred Scripture, Church teaching, the Blessed Virgin Mary, and the dynamic of covenant.
There is a fundamental philosophical and theological divide between a Catholic understanding of the female person and the radical feminist and secularist views. That will be unpacked throughout the course as a Catholic philosophical and theological understanding of the female person is articulated. We will explore the influence, effect, and power of woman’s authority in the Church and the world-at-large as seen through the Blessed Virgin Mary, the saints, and contemporary women. While exploring the relationship between woman’s authority and the character and skills necessary to be a Catholic leader, we will identify the practical pastoral application of such to meet the challenges of the contemporary culture and society.
Participants will read required texts, view weekly instructional videos, respond to weekly posts based on readings, and attend Zoom sessions on Fridays at 7 PM – 8 PM ET to discuss insights gained through the readings and have questions answered.

Winter Online Course
At the heart of the meaning of the feminine genius is the Blessed Virgin Mary. Yet how do we come to know Our Lady well? This course will delve into the mystery of Mary by encountering her loving presence through Scripture and the devotional practices of the Church. In particular, Saint Louis de Montfort’s True Devotion to Mary and Caryll Houselander’s The Reed of God will guide participants into the wonder of being children of such a beautiful Mother. The powerful maxim attributed to Saint Teresa of Calcutta – “No Mary, No Jesus; Know Mary, Know Jesus” – will illuminate our journey all the way into the humble and hidden home of Nazareth.
Participants will read required texts, view weekly instructional videos, respond to weekly posts based on readings, and attend Zoom sessions each Thursday from 6:00 pm to 7:00 pm to discuss insights gained through the readings and have questions answered.
