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.
