Issues Of The Heart
In our daily conversations with one another, how often do we ask the question, “Do you love me?" Human love can often be difficult, especially when it comes to including our neighbors whom we may be out of touch with. Let's create a community environment in which we can help one another to grow in confidence about ourselves.
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.
