Love demands everything. Not only carrying the cross — dying on it. We do hard things, but not for the sake of doing hard things.

This Lent, we’ll be working through Born of Fire by Fr. Innocent Montgomery, CFR.

Jubilee and the Good Samaritan
Why do we leave what’s good and search for answers in places that break us? This week, the friars unpack the story of the Good Samaritan through the lens of the Jubilee year.
