“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 of God and that we are made for relationship with Him. We’ve allowed the world, our successes, brokenness, and weaknesses to define us. We’ve allowed all these things on the outside to define us instead of starting in the right place. This episode talks more about relationship, identity, and mission—what these are about and why are they important. A reminder that our relationship with God tells us the truth about who we are and how that can help us live our mission.

Conditions for Growth
We are all invited to a profound, mystical union with God. But to grow in our spiritual life, Fr. Dubay mentioned in his book that there are certain conditions that we need to understand our growth in the mystical or spiritual life. In this fourth episode of our series on the Fire Within, we’ll reflect upon and respond to the 8 conditions for spiritual…

Revelation of the Resurrected One
Have you ever wondered why it can be so hard to recognize Jesus, even when He’s right in front of you?
In this episode, the friars reflect on the post-Resurrection appearances of Jesus, moments where those closest to Him don’t recognize Him at first. From Mary Magdalene in the garden to the road to Emmaus, they explore the mystery of how the risen Lord reveals Himself: personally, patiently, and often in unexpected ways.
They unpack how Jesus meets people exactly where they are, in grief, confusion, doubt, and even ordinary moments and how those encounters change everything. This isn’t just something that happened back then. It’s a pattern that continues today. The same Jesus still comes, still pursues, and still reveals Himself in ways uniquely meant for each of us.
For those who feel like they’ve never had that “breakthrough” moment, this episode is a gentle reminder: the Lord is closer than you think, especially in the Eucharist, where the Resurrection is made present again.
Join us as we open our eyes to the risen Jesus and learn to recognize Him already at work in our lives.

Jubilee and Christ the High Priest
What if your true identity is more sacred than you ever imagined? Jesus is the High Priest, the one mediator who intercedes for us at the Father’s right hand, offering not just prayers but our wounds, our brokenness, and all of humanity’s sins back to God. As His followers, we are invited to imitate and conform to this sacred role—offering spiritual sacrifices and living lives marked by worship…
