We give up so many pleasures of the world, so many things that people base their entire lives on — the confusion is somewhat understandable. But what the world doesn't see is how God is offering us the fullness of life, the fullness of joy. If only the world knew what it …

1M ago8:44

8:44

Three things that often freak people out are demons, addiction and counselling. This week Fr Columba looks at all three, and how they are linked.

1M ago6:47

6:47

Lots of us spend time and effort learning how to fast — it's difficult, right? Few of us realise we also have to learn how to do the opposite — feast. Yes, it makes sense to pray for the gift of feasting, because the world is constantly trying to dictate what the party looks like.

Ep. 159 | This Should Change How You Live 8:33

2M ago8:33

8:33

In Matthew 25 Jesus separates saved souls from damned souls. The dividing line? Love. He lists the acts of charity, things we know we should be doing, but that often fall on the back burner. So, are you acting in love, are you helping those who can't help you back? Or is this a bit of a blind spot for you, as can easily happen? This isn't a condemn…
