Have you ever felt overwhelmed or unsure about what being “pro-life” actually looks like in your everyday life?
Rather than focusing on politics or arguments, this conversation centers on discipleship: prayer, sacrifice, courage, and small, concrete steps that flow from the Gospel. It’s an invitation to examine our hearts with humility and let God show us where He’s calling us to deeper faithfulness.
In this episode, the friars invite us into a yearly pro-life examen. A prayerful pause to notice where indifference, distraction, or fatigue may have crept in, and to remember why the dignity of human life matters so deeply to our faith. They speak honestly about how easy it is to grow numb and why staying awake to this reality is an act of love.
Join us as we ask the Lord to renew our hearts and teach us how to love and defend life more intentionally.

Trust God With Your Past (Rewind)
Week 2 of a series on a 30-Day Personal Retreat with the Litany of Trust, by Sr. Faustina Maria Pia, S.V. Grace is in the present; there is no grace in the past or in the future.
