There are so many reasons why Mary is special to us. She is the Mother of Jesus and as disciples of Jesus, we ourselves can also accept Mary as our Mother. Mary continues to inspire us to love Jesus more every day. It’s like if Jesus shines bright like the sun, Mary is like the moon that reflects his light. In this episode, we’ll talk about who Mary is, play out some of our favorite stories about Mary, and show why we love our blessed mother so much. Check the video out and let’s get started!

What if seeing God isn’t about trying harder, but desiring Him more simply? For this week the friars turn to the Beatitude: “Blessed are the pure of heart, for they will see God.” In this episode, they explore what purity of heart really means, not moral perfection, but a heart that looks to Jesus without distraction, without divided desires, without constantly turning back toward the world. They talk about intimacy with God, the battle against distraction, how sin clouds our vision, and how purity isn’t about hating yourself but forgetting yourself so you can finally fix your gaze on the One who loves you. Through the lens of St. Francis, the saints, and our own daily struggles, this conversation invites us to reorient our hearts toward the Father and receive again the joy that comes from seeing Him clearly. Walk with us as we learn to desire what He desires and see God in a new and life-changing way.
