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.

Define the Relationship
Being in relationship with God looks like we’re sitting down in front of a big table with Him, and what a deeper conversion and deeper healing means is that we are willing to be at this table and we are willing to lay out everything here for the Lord to see. He sits us down…

He Knows Your Name
Are you able to see God’s goodness? We are invited to trust and surrender that God is good and is always with us, to be rooted in the truth that God is Father, that He knows us, that He is good, and that He loves us.

Older Son (Spiritual Sense)
Have you ever been hurt by someone and struggled with what forgiveness is supposed to look like?
In this episode, the friars revisit the older son in the Prodigal Son story, but now through a deeper, spiritual lens. Not just what he did, but what he felt. The loss, the frustration, the sense of being overlooked, and the real difficulty of being invited into forgiveness before you’re ready.
They explore the complexity of the human heart, how joy and pain can exist at the same time, how past wounds resurface in present moments, and how God meets us not with pressure, but with presence. This conversation is an honest look at what it means to carry hurt, to wrestle with forgiveness, and to let the Father meet you in the middle of it.
Join us as we enter the older son’s story and discover a God who doesn’t rush healing, but walks with us through it.
