Room At The Table
veryone is welcomed at Christ's table. This holds true for us with our relationships. Do we welcome our friends as well as the ones who have betrayed us? We must remember that Jesus had a seat for Judas at the Last Supper even after knowing what Judas was going to do later that night. As Christians, our job is to bring others to Christ rather than scaring them away from the beauty of the Church. How can you feed the one who betrayed you today?
In this FatherSide Chat, Father Gene reflects on growing up, finding your identity, and learning how to share your unique “song” with the world—balancing individuality and belonging while navigating rejection, growth, and the challenge of staying true to yourself.
What does a truly successful life look like? Father Gene challenges the usual definitions of status and achievement, offering a deeper, more human measure rooted in relationships, presence, and impact—being someone others genuinely want to invite back into their lives.
