Owning My Life
In this FatherSide Chat, Father Gene reflects on the power of personal ownership—how growth often starts when we stop blaming others and start adjusting ourselves. By opening to new ideas, we rediscover the path forward and the wisdom of change.
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.
