The Exodus and Jubilee ft. Dr. John Bergsma – Series on Jesus and the Jubilee (Part 4)
What does true freedom look like, and how can we restore what was lost? In the Book of Exodus, the Israelites’ journey from slavery to freedom is a profound story of spiritual liberation. Led by Moses, they confront the oppressive forces of Egypt and experience God’s miraculous intervention through the plagues, ultimately leading to their escape and journey toward the Promised Land. This story is about historical events and humanity’s ongoing struggle for freedom, forgiveness, and a deeper relationship with God. The Exodus story reminds us that liberation is possible and that we can reclaim what was lost through God—freedom, family, and fullness. In this episode, with our special guest, Dr. John Bergsma, we will reflect on the importance of the Exodus story in relation to this Jubilee year.

C’est La Confiance
Are you worried for 2024? Worry is a lack of confidence, and we can be worried about much stuff. The invitation from St. Therese and our Lord is to have confidence in Him. We who run in the way of love shouldn’t be thinking of suffering that can take place in the future. That’s a lack of confidence. The complete trust that becomes an abandonment in love sets us free from obsessive calculations…

The Asceticism of Silence (Rewind)
What’s the most prevalent voice that you hear in your life? Is it God’s or someone’s/something else? We long to teach people how to pray, contemplative silence, inner recollection, and interior stillness are ways to live in a relationship with God. But, there’s a silver bullet to make people live in chaos and noise, exteriorly or interiorly. Every day, through general media…
