Okay, friends, we did it. It is the Triduum, and it is the holiest time of the whole year. And tonight, on Holy Thursday night, Jesus and the Eucharist are taken out of all the tabernacles in all churches and placed in a special place in the church. Tonight, Jesus goes from the Last Supper to the Garden of Gethsemane to pray with His apostles. And He asks the apostles that powerful, powerful question, “Will you not spend just one hour with me?” Here is Jesus knocking at the doors of our hearts. Asking us to spend an hour with Him. Just like Anna asks Elsa, “Will you just spend time with me?”
Whatever you’re doing tonight, drop what you’re doing. Go to your local church and spend time with Jesus in the garden so that we can prepare with Him for Good Friday. Because if we don’t spend time with Him now, eternity will be boring.

Against The Grain
Okay, so fish are fascinating. Did you know that salmon swim upstream for almost 2,000 miles every year? This is insane. This Sunday, we celebrate the Feast of the Holy Family, and the family are like fish always swimming upstream. No matter what is going on in the culture, no matter what is happening in the world, the family is always being counter-cultural, going against the grain, bringing life, and providing…

Adopted by God Through Baptism
I had the amazing honor of baptizing my friend’s newborn. Baptism is so awesome because no matter if you were baptized with just water gently poured on your head, or if you were fully immersed, or even if a fire hose was shot at you. When you are baptized in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, you are adopted by God. Jesus, in the gospel for this Sunday, says…
