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.

Step One
Jesus not only loves us — He thirsts for us. Why does He say “I thirst”? What does it mean? It’s something so hard to explain in words. I thirst is something much deeper than Jesus just saying, “I love you”. Mother Teresa tells us how much love Jesus has for each of us — beyond all that we can imagine. In her words…

Franciscan Jubilee
What do we do when the Church invites us to slow down and then calls us to go deeper?
In this episode, the friars reflect on the newly announced Jubilee Year of St. Francis and what it means not just for Franciscans, but for the whole Church. They share why this moment feels like a continuation of grace rather than a reset, an invitation to keep living the Jubilee spirit of holiness, simplicity, and trust.
They talk about St. Francis not as an unreachable saint, but as a brother who shows us how to follow Jesus with clarity and freedom. This conversation explores holiness as something concrete and lived: simplifying our lives, returning to prayer, falling in love with the Eucharist, and letting ourselves be captivated by Christ again.
Join us as we begin this Jubilee year together, learning, little by little, how to follow Jesus more simply and more fully.

Freedom Greater Than Circumstances
What makes us most free is this submission to God and this dependence on Him. Yes, freedom is dependent on obedience rather than doing whatever I want. When we fall in love with God and experience that love, this profound interior freedom takes place, and it becomes the most important thing in our lives — even to the point that it…
