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.

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.

Relationship, Identity, Mission
“Who Is God” and “Who am I?” This is what we’re attempting to answer when we talk about living in the proper order of relationship, identity, and mission. We are living in a time where we’re going through an identity crisis. In the very foundation, a lot of us are forgetting who we are. We forget that we are sons and daughters…

Up The Mountain
Going up the mountain offers an opportunity to come face-to-face with God, providing a perspective where we can see what’s important. Up there, we are invited to embrace the experience and the beauty of childlike wonder and awe. It’s a place of intimacy with and revelation of God. But the challenge as we go up the mountain is to let go of things…
