Persistence in Prayer with Kylie Hein
Welcome to the Persistence in Prayer podcast — where Catholic women who feel scattered, stretched thin, and pulled in a million directions can stop overthinking, quiet the noise, and find peace in God’s presence.
Do you push through each day chasing productivity, yet feel like your soul is running on empty?
Do you long to pray with focus, but your mind spins with stress, decisions, and distractions?
Do you want clarity in your faith, but feel weighed down by pressure to be “the good one” or “get it right”?
You’re not alone.

#86 Role Model Warriors with Julie Onderko
In this deeply insightful episode of Persistence in Prayer, Kylie sits down with author and speaker, Julie Onderko. Julie shares her incredible journey of faith, illustrating how God's hand has always been present in her life, guiding her through various transitions and challenges.
Julie recounts her unexpected journey into authorship, inspired by her retreats and the encouragement of her spiritual director and husband. Her books, "Discover Your Next Mission from God" and "Holy Handmaids of the Lord," are testaments to her devotion and trust in the Lord’s plan.
We also delve into the concept of spiritual warfare and the essential roles of trust, humility, and prayer in our lives. Julie passionately describes the power of the Surrender Novena and the importance of maintaining a journal to document God's undeniable presence and guidance in our lives.
In a touching discussion, Julie highlights various saints, particularly Louis and Zélie Martin, the parents of St. Thérèse of Lisieux, and how their stories of perseverance and faith continue to inspire her. We reflect on the powerful intercession of saints and the beauty of being part of the Body of Christ—friends of the Bridegroom and His family.
As we navigate through Advent, Julie encourages us to ponder how we are called to bear Christ to the world and reminds us of the importance of loving well, even amidst uncertainty.
This episode is filled with wisdom, inspiration, and practical advice on nurturing a deep, trusting relationship with God. Whether you're in a season of clarity or confusion, Julie's experiences and insights offer comfort and encouragement to keep moving forward in faith.
