What does it mean to give yourself completely to God? Father Columba dives into the vows of poverty, chastity and obedience, showing how they reflect a full self-gift to God, much like Jesus’ love in the Eucharist. Through his Franciscan life, he shares insights on living fully for Christ and challenges us to consider how we can respond to God’s love with our own wholehearted “yes”.

Are you holding back in your faith by just trying to be “nice”? Have you ever wondered if honesty and boldness could bring you closer to God? In this episode, Father Columba dives into this issue, drawing from the gospel where Jesus says, “let your yes mean yes, and your no mean no,” showing us why sometimes, Nice Isn’t Enough.

Where does God dwell? Closer than you’d think! Father Columba dives into John 15:5 and uses babushka dolls as an analogy to reveal the life-changing truth: Jesus lives not just with us, but within us — and us within him. There’s a lot to unpack this week.

While it can feel difficult or unloving to say “no”, maintaining boundaries is essential. Do you ever say "yes" because it's easier? Do you tend to people-please to "stay connected"? People-pleasing, driven by the fear of rejection, can distort relationships and prevent us from bringing our true selves to the table. Fr Columba gives tips on how to avoid this.

We all have an inner conversation, pretty much all of the time. When it gets negative, who's steering? Is it God, or is it your overly critical self? God will rebuke us when we need it, but it will feel very different to us hating on ourselves.

Shame is an unavoidable human emotion, and like any emotion — it can get too big for us to handle. Fr Columba shares a recent story of his in which he noticed an unhealthy emotional reaction to his messing up. Father uses this experience as an opportunity to grow in love for and security in God, knowing that unfettered shame can lead us to anxiety and even sin.
