God Loves Me
One of the most important components to our faith manifests as a sense of joy – knowing that God, as our Creator, knows who we are. God loves us no matter what happens. His love doesn't only bring joy, but it also brings motivation to our lives. What does it mean to you that God loves you?
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.
