Ask Sister podcast is a live podcast where you have the opportunity to engage with us and ask questions about nuns, prayer, religious life, or pretty much anything in between!
Here are some of the questions we addressed in this Ask Sister podcast:
- Who determines who will be the leader (sometimes called the President or Mother Superior) of a religious congregation?
- Did Saint Francis of Assisi wear a wedding ring?
- Can religious leaders attempt to influence voters by suggesting that voting for or against someone is “sinful”?
- From a spiritual point of view, what is the difference between solitude and loneliness?
- How do I know if I’m called to be a nun?
- Did religious life change in the past 30 years?
- Does your prayer change as you progress in religious life?
- Can a person from one country join a religious community from another country?
- What does it mean when a person asks you to say a Mass or have a Mass said for someone who is living or has died?

Sisters Julie and Max – I’d be interested to know how your ideas about God changed between the time you first accepted the call to religious life and the time of your final vows. What did you learn about God during those years that was different from what came before?
Good question, Marsha! Reminds me of something Sister Joyce was talking about a couple weeks ago on the AS044 Ask Sister podcast. Will think on this and hang on to it for next week.
Yes, I was thinking of Sr. Joyce’s talk – that prompted my question.
