Today is the Feast Day of the Holy Family. And what better thing to talk about than “Fast and the Furious.” Dominic Toretto is amazing at driving fast. But he is more impressive with protecting his family. My favorite quote from the ninth movie is, “The worst thing you can do to a Toretto is take away his family.” Translate that to our faith, and oh my gosh, the worst thing that you can do to God the Father is take away his family. We are taken away from our relationship with the Father through our sins. But the Father is willing to go to great lengths to bring us back, to send his only son so that we can be brought back into his family.
You are always a son and a daughter of the Father. This is the incredible news. For us to get back to him, what are you willing to do to get close to the Father? This is Spirit Juice: peace.

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…

From Mud Pies to Beautiful Beaches
Guys, C.S. Lewis is such a stud. He is a champion and a man among men when it comes to the Christian faith. And he had a great quote, “We are like ignorant children. Completely happy and content playing with mud pies in the dirt when we have no idea what an invitation to the beach at the sea would be like.” Jesus is inviting us to live…

Neville Longbottom and King David
Okay, everyone, hot take: Neville Longbottom is the real hero of the Harry Potter series. Looking at him from the outside, it doesn’t look like he should be in Gryffindor, nor doesn’t look like he has anything to offer.
