Dealing With The Real
Father Gene reflects on how true religion begins at our everyday level—sharing meals, praying together, and asking simple yet profound questions like “Who’s hungry?” Discover how faith grows stronger when rooted in real conversations and community life.
What does it really mean to say, “I’m in”? In this FatherSide Chat, Father Gene explores Ash Wednesday and Lent not as rituals of guilt, but as intentional renewal. A season to recommit, refocus, and choose something better for ourselves and those around us.
Some moments stay with us forever—the instant understanding clicks, or gratitude suddenly deepens. Father Gene reflects on recognizing “the good stuff”: learning, resilience, and the quiet sacrifices of those who came before us that made our own lives possible.
