How Mary’s Magnificat Can Change Your Life (with Sonja Corbitt)
Danielle BeanMy guest this week is Sonja Corbitt, wife, mom, author, speaker, podcaster, retreat leader, television show host and more. Sonja is a woman on fire with her faith and in love with God’s word, with a passion for sharing that love with others.
Mary herself is the magnificat, her whole life is a song that glorifies the Lord.
On Girlfriends today, Sonja shares about her book, Exalted: How the Power of the Magnificat Can Change Us. Together, we talk about the meaning of Mary’s Magnificat and the unique way that Mary calls each of us, through it, to become more fully and perfectly the women God made us to be.

Also in today show, I share about an upcoming marriage conference I am excited to be a part of (Together In Holiness) and I answer a question about planning family size from a listener named Sarah.
My newest book is one that I wrote with Dan, the Manual for Marriage, a beautiful resource for every couple. In it, Dan and I share reflective essays on marriage and family life, but it also features a large collection of prayers, Scripture passages, hymns, and stories from the saints that will encourage and support you in your married relationship.
I have received so much feedback from all of you about my newest book and the first chapter that I shared with you at the end of episode 210. Giving Thanks and Letting Go: Reflections on the Gift of Motherhood is a book in which I share from my heart about the very real changes, challenges, triumphs, and joys of being a mom in an “emptying nest.” You can read that sample chapter at Ave Maria Press.
