I want more sacred and less secular in my life this Lent, including music. Please recommend your favorite Catholic artists!

Ladies, we've let ourselves get too complacent around here. It's been too long since I've seen a post about cervical mucus and it's time we bring Catholic tumblr back to its roots!

To all who follow me:
My grandma in the Philippines is dying of cancer. Probably very soon. Please say a prayer for her. And please keep my mother and our family in your prayers too.
I only hope and pray that my mom can make it in time to be with my grandmother (her mom) before she passes.
I don't normally ask for prayers, but please pray if you see this. It would mean a great deal as well if you could ask your favorite saint or Our Lady to intercede for my grandmother and mom.
Thank you. ❤️

I am doing a cold turkey Coca Cola rehab starting tomorrow. Not only to lose 50 kgs of weight, but also because of health reasons.
I drank 2 litres of Coke each day until now and it completely fucked up my digestive system and my bladder.
It will be really tough, but I want to do it!
I would appreciate some prayers.

I am coming to the realization that I really need to read the Bible in order to understand, like, anything about Western literature, because my surface level [creation>exile>Haggadah>wandering>Sinai>Lot at some point>New Testament (Rashamon)>some weird shit about Nero nobody cares about] understanding isn't really going to cut it.
...where do I get an Audiobook of the Bible? Does such a thing exist for free? I'm looking for the Five Books+Four Gospels minimum.

I'm proud of myself for finally finishing this illustration. I painted it in my sketchbook and then did some final edits digitally.
I'm considering trying out giclée printing and I might start with this one. What do you think?
Here's the "about the image" and description of my process, if you're interested:
St. Catherine of Siena was one boss lady from the 14th century. She is known for a lot of things, but for this depiction of her I wanted to focus on her mission of returning the Pope to Rome (he was in France, there was a lot of political nonsense going on at the time). Her mission was a success. She was involved in peace negotiation between the Pope and the Florentines (again, lots of nonsense going on, sorry I'm not giving you the details here) and has written a great many letters that I feel called to look into. Anyway, she was working against the antipope and just overall doing a lot of diplomacy throughout her life on top of her spiritual writing and other things.
Before I began gathering reference images to put together for inspiration, I knew I wanted to focus on the aspect of her returning Pope Gregory from France to Rome.
Of all of the images I had found, I decided to include the following symbols/aspects from her life: the stigmata, crown of thorns, a rose, a lily, and the crucifix (pointing to the Vatican behind her). The red shape in front is an outline of a part of the coast of France and the green shape behind her is an outline of Italy, with the shape inside being the Vatican.
Most images of her that I found of her made her seem demure and looking away from the viewer, but for my image, I wanted her to be looking directly at you, with her arm outstretched. The lily is a symbol of purity but we know this was a bold and direct woman of God, not someone hiding in a soft expression. So, not only is she reaching out to Pope Gregory, asking for his return to Rome, but also, reaching out to you, personally, to return to the Church, if you have fallen away.
This was my collage that I made to use for reference as I painted:
Tumblr media
Her left hand that is outstretched is my own hand, lol, so I still ended up using myself as a reference (idk why, I hate using my stubby fingers as reference so if you have dainty slender fingers feel free to let me know and I'll reach out to you next time haha)
On a personal note- this image was a commission to be given as a gift to my cousin who graduated with a degree in mediation or diplomacy (I forget) and I thought St. Catherine of Siena, a well known peace negotiator, was the best choice. My cousin is also not a practicing Catholic (as far as I know) and most of her siblings are the same. I wanted to paint this illustration with that in mind, which is why I have St. Catherine extending her hand. I want to be closer with my family but sometimes I don't know how. There's been a lot of drama between my aunts and uncles, pushing so far that many of them are no longer speaking to one another. I know painting this image of St. Catherine may not act as a bridge in the regard but maybe it could be a small stepping stone.

catholic tumblr should just give me all the money they're spending on blaze posts trying to advertise their hilariously awful little religion, and then i'll convert.
im jewish, and usually the way it works is catholics persuade us to convert by killing us if we don't, though sometimes they just take our property, money, and children, but i think right now no one has time for that and just handing over 150$ would be a lot more convenient for everyone.
i like money, doing stupid things online, and not going to hell. i am ready to bargain.
