Do we live our lives believing—having faith in the resurrection? In this ongoing journey of stripping the things we clothe ourselves with, Jesus wants us to give him the things that hold us back and desires to give himself in return. We have sins that isolate us and cause us to go into hiding, but the gift of the resurrection breaks it all open.
This episode focuses on the importance of the resurrection. An invitation to allow the hope of the resurrection to enter all of our darkness and the different areas of our lives in this Valley of Tears as we journey through it. This Easter season, let’s pray to increase faith in the Lord and his resurrection.

Feeling Good Vs. Being Good
What if the things we use to “feel better” are the very things keeping us from becoming good? In this episode, the friars continue exploring the Beatitude “Blessed are the pure of heart” looking at the quiet ways we avoid honesty with ourselves, through distraction, self-soothing, numbing, or chasing comfort. They unpack why it’s so hard to face what’s really going on inside us, and how purity of heart begins with the courage to stop running and let Jesus meet us in our reality.

Older Son (Literal Sense)
Have you ever felt frustrated, overlooked, or distant, even though you find yourself doing the “right” things?
In this episode, the friars dive into the older son in the Prodigal Son story, not symbolically at first, but simply as he is. His words, his reactions, his position in the family. And what starts to emerge is something deeply human: a struggle with comparison, entitlement, and not fully receiving the Father’s love.
They unpack how easy it is to stay close in proximity but far in relationship and how the older son’s experience can quietly mirror our own spiritual lives.
Join us as we take an honest look at the older son and allow the Father to meet us right where we are.
