Series on Fire Within by Fr. Thomas Dubay, S.M. (Part 8 of 8)
What happens when we sincerely give ourselves to the lives of prayer and the experience of God? The Fire Within series has been quite intense, but it’s the reality of the depths of the Gospel truly lived. It goes beyond the ordinary simply because living out the Gospel wholeheartedly is not ordinary—but extraordinary. Little by little, Poco a Poco is the place we want to be.
This is the eighth and last episode of our Fire Within series, an invitation:
- To be the ones who say “Yes” to the Lord.
- To be the ones who live differently.
- To be the ones who risk everything, hold nothing back, and give themselves all they are.
- To be the John of the Crosses and the Teresa of Avilas for the next generation.
Which, ultimately, can happen through the radical living of the Gospel, loving God and our neighbors.

Freedom Greater Than Circumstances
What makes us most free is this submission to God and this dependence on Him. Yes, freedom is dependent on obedience rather than doing whatever I want. When we fall in love with God and experience that love, this profound interior freedom takes place, and it becomes the most important thing in our lives — even to the point that it…

Mind Your Business
Solitude is not just quiet time for ourselves. It is not running from people, isolation, or hiding from or avoiding our problems by going off and being alone. But instead, it is avoiding certain behaviors, worldviews, curiosities, and distractions that take our focus on the Lord. According to Fr. Dubay, authentic solitude is the healthy turning towards one’s…

On Being Safe
What does it mean to be safe? Safety is not the absence of suffering; it’s not like we’re not going to struggle with anything, but it’s the recognition that when we are vulnerable, we don’t have to escape it because someone wants to be with us and provide for us and that is our Lord, Jesus Christ. This is the safety that we are proposing. In this episode, we focus on having sufficient resources and…
