Series on Fire Within by Fr. Thomas Dubay, S.M. (Part 3 of 8)
The medicine for wanting to pray is learning to live in the reality that’s most true-God wants to be in communion with us. Meditation, contemplation, and infused prayer can help us live in this reality; this is what we will talk about in this third episode of our series on the Fire Within. This episode also aims to present before us an authentically Catholic understanding of the experiences of God and give witness through what we see in scripture and the lives of the saints.

Jubilee Year
Where is your focus set on this new year, 2025? This year, we begin a jubilee year in the church. It is a consecrated time, a special year to stop and take a step back—it’s a year of rest to reset while inviting the Lord into it.

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.
