The Answer Is Be Kind
How do you serve your neighbor daily? Who are the "least" living around you? Father Gene shares that being kind to your neighbor can be difficult to always do. Christ tells us that what we do to the least of our brothers, we do to him. In such a broken world, we don't know what crosses our neighbors are carrying. Let us step in and show them an act of kindness, even if it is something simple such as giving our neighbor a smile.
Faith is often passed on quietly, through habits, conversations, and the way we live each day. Father Gene reflects on how values are caught—not forced—and how kindness, consistency, and presence shape the hearts of children more than rules ever could.
In a world pulled between urgency and fear of change, Father Gene reflects on the tension we live with every day. This conversation invites us to slow down, listen well, and rediscover the quiet, courageous work of building bridges instead of choosing sides.
