What if meekness isn’t weakness but the strongest way Jesus fights?
In this episode, the friars turn to “Blessed are the meek” and uncover how meekness is not passivity or timidity, but the fruit of deep confidence and identity as sons of the Father. They explore how Jesus enters the ultimate battle, not with force or armor, but with humility, vulnerability, and unwavering trust in who He is. This is how He confronts temptation, resists Satan, and claims victory.
They reflect on how our own battles are often fought in the same place: our identity. When we’re rooted in the Father’s love, insecurity loses its power, and we’re free to stand firm without grasping, proving, or defending ourselves.
Join us as we learn how meekness becomes strength, identity becomes armor, and Christ’s victory becomes our own.

Be Merciful As Your Father
Have you ever wanted to forgive, but just couldn’t seem to get there?
This week, the friars reflect on the call to “be merciful as your Father is merciful” and the real, often slow journey of forgiveness. They unpack the tension of holding pain while still being invited into mercy and how forgiveness isn’t something we force, but something we receive and grow into over time.
Through the lens of the older son, they explore what it means to stay close to the Father, to “borrow” His heart, and to take small, honest steps toward healing, even when it’s hard.
Join us as we discover how God meets us in our wounds and gently leads us into freedom, one step at a time.

From Me to You
Have you experienced being confined to self-centeredness? Sometimes, we can have a pretty self-focused approach to our lives where it’s all about what we need or want. But the invitation for us in this Exodus is to always move towards someone else, towards the relationship, towards God—to be totally out of ourselves and make a self-gift back to God and other people.
