Series on “The Father” by Fr. Mark-Mary Ames, CFR (Part 4)
What does it mean to be made for freedom? We are all called to live in freedom as sons and daughters of God. We are seen, loved, and chosen by God the Father, and there’s freedom when we experience that. In this episode, we’ll explore the mechanics of freedom and learn more about how the experience of home and trust can help us understand that a little bit deeper.

His authority does not lord it over us and does not force us to bow down and tremble before Him. But it allows Himself to be emptied and clothed with…

Fr. Angelus Returns
Ever feel like God is inviting you back to something but you’re not quite sure how to step into it?
After time away, Fr. Angelus returns, and the conversation picks up right where grace has been quietly at work. There’s a sense of homecoming here, but also a deeper invitation to listen, to trust, and to respond to what the Lord is doing beneath the surface.
In this episode, the friars reflect on what it means to return, not just physically, but spiritually. They talk about the movements of the heart, the subtle ways God calls us forward, and how renewal often begins in places we didn’t expect.
Join us as we welcome Fr. Angelus back and lean into the quiet, steady work of God who is always drawing us deeper.

In this episode, we look into what it means to be restored as sons and…
