What if this year’s resolution isn’t about fixing your life, but about trusting God in the middle of it?
As a new year begins, the friars talk honestly about goals, growth, and the tension between good intentions and real life. But the conversation quickly turns deeper. Drawing from the Gospel scene of the storm at sea, they reflect on the haunting question the disciples ask Jesus: “Do you not care that we are perishing?”
This episode invites us to start the year not by avoiding the storms we’re in, but by naming them and discovering that Jesus is already in the boat with us. His silence isn’t indifference. His meekness isn’t distance. It’s the quiet confidence of a God who cares deeply, stays close, and is already at work.
Join us as we begin the year by seeking the one resolution that changes everything: learning to trust that He truly cares.

Human Stuff
Why are the most ordinary parts of life often the hardest to navigate?
In this episode, the friars lean into the everyday realities we all deal with: conflict, communication, expectations, and the awkward moments we’d rather avoid. From navigating tough conversations to managing unspoken expectations and misunderstandings, they talk honestly about how “human stuff” can quietly shape our relationships for better or worse.
Rather than offering quick fixes, the conversation invites us to grow in maturity, courage, and clarity to stop avoiding discomfort and start choosing honesty, vulnerability, and charity in the messiness of real life.
Join us as we laugh, reflect, and learn how God meets us right in the middle of our very human stuff.
