Sharing Our Marianist Stories is a podcast produced by the North American Center for Marianist Studies. Our podcast highlights concrete experiences of the Marianist Charism in action and amplifies stories and experiences of members of the Marianist Family. Occasionally episodes may reflect on a dynamic of Marianist history. During the Advent, Lenten and Easter seasons, we also utilize our podcast episodes that empower listeners to reflect as each liturgical season progresses.
Below please find a list of all our episodes, each with their own websites that include transcripts, descriptions, and credits.
Episodes are available on nearly all podcasting apps, our YouTube Channel, and through the embedded podcast player below.
