Maybe or maybe not you have a friend like this, someone who is so good at giving grand gestures, someone who really knows how to show you a good time. But that person then, like, ghosts you for two weeks straight. If we don’t have consistency in a friendship, then it just feels empty.
And here is what Jesus is saying in this Sunday’s Gospel. Those who are trustworthy in small things are trustworthy in great ones. That before we can live that great life that Jesus has in store, we have to be consistent with him in our prayer. And so we are so good at making grand gestures like going to confession and just pouring out our whole hearts for the Lord, and then we ghost him for like two weeks. This next week, be consistent with Jesus. Visit Jesus and the blessed sacrament for 10 minutes, that’s it. It’s the small consistencies. That’s what changes the world.

Tonight, Jesus goes from the Last Supper to the Garden of Gethsemane to pray with His apostles. And He asks…

SEEK 2024
I get asked very often by people who are slightly older than me. “Father Tim, where are all the young people? They’re not coming to mass. They’re not growing in their relationship with the Lord. They don’t believe in anything.” A bit of that is valid, but most of it is false. Me and Spirit Juice and 24,000 of our closest friends were at a conference called SEEK, which was incredible. Twenty-four thousand young people…

Easter
Five years ago, I had the insane opportunity to go to the Holy Land and do a pilgrimage. And in the Holy Land, I went to the Holy Sepulchre. In the Holy Sepulchre, there is the tomb where they laid the body of Jesus, and I went inside. Guys, you will not believe what I saw. I saw nothing. There was nothing. There was no one because Jesus Christ had risen from…
