**Last week I uploaded [Episode 9](http://amongwomenpodcast.com/2016/04/11/among-women-espresso-shot-9-the-joy-of-love-amoris-laetitia/) of Among Women “Espresso Shot” **– it’s a short strong coffee break of faith sharing and teaching from yours truly.

**Our Topic: Francis’ Apostolic Exhortation, *Amoris Laetitia, (On Love in the Family)*, or as its popularly known, “The Joy of Love.” **

I’m [calling this podcast a “double espresso shot”](http://amongwomenpodcast.com/2016/04/11/among-women-espresso-shot-9-the-joy-of-love-amoris-laetitia/) because it's twice as long — 30 minutes. I hope you’ll indulge me. In [this podcast](http://amongwomenpodcast.com/2016/04/11/among-women-espresso-shot-9-the-joy-of-love-amoris-laetitia/) I’ll be encouraging you to *read, read, read *Pope Francis’ latest document following the [two previous Synods](http://www.usccb.org/issues-and-action/marriage-and-family/2014-2015-synods-of-bishops-on-the-family.cfm) on marriage and family life: [*Amoris Laetitia*](http://w2.vatican.va/content/francesco/en/apost_exhortations/documents/papa-francesco_esortazione-ap_20160319_amoris-laetitia.html). I’ll also review the table of contents, offer some excerpts, and add a few personal thoughts.

Read the [Apostolic Exhortation *Amoris Laetitia*, “The Joy of Love”](http://w2.vatican.va/content/francesco/en/apost_exhortations/documents/papa-francesco_esortazione-ap_20160319_amoris-laetitia.html) (PDF form).

There are so [many good links over at the AW blog ](http://amongwomenpodcast.com/2016/04/11/among-women-espresso-shot-9-the-joy-of-love-amoris-laetitia/)regarding the release of this document.
