Series on Jesus’s Favorite Things (Part 3)
Do you also spend quality time with Jesus? Part of Jesus’s favorite thing is to be with us. He desires to be with us and wants to spend time with us. He chooses people to be with Him as He’s with His Father. Jesus has given himself to us in the most holy Eucharist. It’s a true testament that He chooses to provide himself with his love and that he desires to spend quality time with us, and a way in which we can love Him is by receiving him, coming to him, and spending quality time with Him in prayer.
In this episode, we’ll discuss another of Jesus’s favorite things, quality time, and how we can be renewed by receiving Jesus’s presence in our lives and desire to spend time with Him.

Intentional and Wanted by God
Were you just a surprise, or did God want you? In this episode, the friars speak about the quiet questions many carry, especially those born outside traditional circumstances. They unpack the pain, confusion, and identity struggles that can come with that and speak truth into it all that no matter how you came into the world, whether your story includes surprise, brokenness, or uncertainty, one truth…

You Need Community
We have some pretty strong feelings on this topic, and it shows in this week’s episode. Passing through purgatory is the experience that prepares us for heaven.

Peace, Mercy, and Vulnerability
What if real peace only grows where we’re willing to be vulnerable? In this episode, the friars reflect on “Blessed are the peacemakers” and “Blessed are the merciful”, showing how both Beatitudes invite us to step toward others with honesty and humility. Making peace means entering hard conversations without defenses. Mercy means letting go of the “high ground” we hold over those who’ve hurt us. Both require lowering ourselves, just as Jesus does. They explore how vulnerability isn’t weakness but the place where reconciliation becomes possible, where forgiveness takes root, and where the heart of Christ is revealed. Join us as we learn the courage to be vulnerable and the freedom that comes from choosing mercy and peace.
