The Joy Of Bringing Life
In this week's episode of FatherSide Chats, The Joy Of Bringing Life, Father Gene reflects on the profound journey of bringing life into the world. Beyond the celebration of birth, it delves into the realities of nurturing, educating, and caring for another's life, a long-term commitment requiring courage, wisdom, and persistence.
Loneliness touches everyone at times, but it doesn’t have to have the final word. Father Gene reflects on how purposeful gathering—small, intentional moments of connection—can grow into real community, offering space to listen, share, laugh, and walk through life together.
Some lessons arrive softly, reminding us that caring for others begins with caring for ourselves. Father Gene shares why creating sacred space for “me” isn’t selfish—it’s essential—and how learning to say “I can’t” can become an act of love.
