What do you really hunger and thirst for?
As the friars continue through the Franciscan Lent, they dive deep into the Beatitude: “Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they will be satisfied.” This conversation is about holy desire, the kind that burns, refines, and draws us closer to God Himself.
They unpack what it means to let go of lesser hungers, to purify our desires, and to rediscover the fire that leads to union with God. From St. Francis’ radical poverty to our own longing for holiness, the friars remind us that this journey isn’t about doing more, but actually about becoming more like Him.
Join us as we learn to hunger for what truly satisfies, the very life of God alive within us.

Allowing someone to witness a private, cherished part of life is no small thing, and being a witness to one of these moments is an honor. There’s a particular part of Jesus’s life for which we get to be these witnesses only a few times…

On Being Chosen
Loneliness can make us feel that we’re not chosen; it can give us a sense of isolation. And sometimes, it’s so easy to forget, BUT we have to remember what’s true—we have a God who loves and chooses us. This is the first part of our series on Fr. Dubay’s The Fire Within, where we dive deep into the idea, experience, and desire of being chosen…

Suffering and Prayer
In reality, suffering’s out there in many ways, and in most ways, it’s unavoidable. So, “Okay, what do we do with it?”. We’ll unpack this question in today’s episode. We are invited to unite our suffering with Jesus and offer it to Him. As we suffer generously and give that to the Lord, one of the fruits of it is that it creates the space and cultivates…
