Putting Young People Together
In today's society, technology has led young people to feel more socially isolated than ever before. Our church needs to teach the young generations how to receive and remain engaged with the faith through the problems that one may face. God will not leave us. Instead, He will guide us with a mission that is beyond perfection.
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.
