Series on “Mysteries & Medicine” by Fr. Isaiah, CFR (Part 2)
What do you desire, and how do you respond to it? One reality of our humanity is that we can forever be dissatisfied and expect a different answer to our desires. But we are invited to let this desire, this hunger, become a pathway that brings the Lord closer to us, to offer Him the desire and to be with Him in it. This episode is the second part of our series on Fr. Isaiah’s Mysteries & Medicine, which talks about our desires—the holy, the unmet, and the sinful desires and how we should respond to them.

He’s always giving himself to us and always longing to speak to us, but living in the constant influx of noise and immediate gratification profoundly affects our contemplative experience—our ability to sit in prayer…

Ending the Year Well
Our last episode of the year… a time that often means reflecting on the last year and looking forward to the next one. As you look back on 2021, there are probably loose ends — struggles, situations — that haven’t been resolved. It’s easy to wish that everything would just make sense, but sometimes it just doesn’t…

Humility, Obedience, and Prayer
Humility is a lowliness — not for its own sake but rather a proper understanding of who we are and who we are not. It’s a place where you know more about what everybody is saying in a room but doesn’t always have to say anything or don’t need to be someone who wants to seem smarter than everybody else. In this sixth episode of our Fire Within…
