Are you hungry for God? One of our foundational struggles is that we’re just not hungry for Him. Part of the path, if not the path, is that we will have to experience this hunger. A “stepping away” from the noise, distractions, and self-reliance, entering into a place of vulnerability and dependence on God and being able to live and pray from that place. Today, we will discuss the change of passions and desires and dive into how we can develop a taste for silence and ultimately grow in hunger and thirst for God.

Have you ever wanted God’s gifts, but not the relationship that comes with them?
Continuing their Lenten journey through the Prodigal Son, the friars reflect on the bold and painful demand: “Father, give me my inheritance.” They explore the deeper movement beneath those words, the desire to take control, to live on our own terms, and to separate blessing from belonging.
This episode looks honestly at the nature of sin: how we grasp at what was meant to be received, how freedom can be misused, and how chasing independence often leaves us isolated and burdened. What looks flashy and exciting on the surface can quietly bend the heart inward, cutting us off from the very love we were made for.

And what we celebrate in this holy Triduum, this Holy Week, is Christ, giving himself to us as the bridegroom and espousing himself to us, His bride. We are celebrating Jesus’ love and total…
