    Ep. 260 | The Prayer God Is Waiting For

    Do you find yourself telling God information in prayer rather than sharing your heart? In this episode, Fr Columba reflects on the difference between giving God a report and giving Him yourself. Using the image of a father who is never bored by his child, he reminds us that God does not need to be informed — He already knows everything — but He desires relationship. Whether your prayer feels repetitive, dry, or overly formal, this reflection invites you to speak honestly, bring your real story to God, and rediscover the simplicity of being known and loved. 🔴  THIS SERIES Little by Little | Episode #260 Little by Little is a weekly video series by Called to More in collaboration with the Franciscan Friars of the Renewal.

    Ep. 259 | How to Get the Most From Mass

    Do you expect Mass to change you? In this episode, Fr Columba reflects on the quiet but powerful truth that every encounter with God is meant to transform us. Drawing on the image of the Magi returning by a different way, he invites us to examine our expectations at Mass and in prayer, and to rediscover the grace God offers each time we come before Him. Whether you feel distracted, discouraged, or unsure if anything is really happening, this reflection encourages you to approach Mass with faith, hope, and love — and to trust that God is always at work, even when we cannot yet see it. 🔴  THIS SERIES Little by Little | Episode #259 Little by Little is a weekly video series by Called to More in collaboration with the Franciscan Friars of the Renewal.

    Ep. 258 | The Lie You Believe About God

    Do you find it hard to be vulnerable — even with God? In this episode, Fr Columba reflects on why we hide behind masks, why we fear being truly seen, and how this fear can quietly block love and freedom. Using Adam in the Garden as a mirror for the human heart, he shows how shame and distrust twist our thinking and lead us to perform rather than receive. Whether you feel stuck behind a “fake self” or afraid of being rejected, start where you are — let yourself be known — and let God do the rest. 🔴  THIS SERIES Little by Little | Episode #258 Little by Little is a weekly video series by Called to More in collaboration with the Franciscan Friars of the Renewal.

    Ep. 257 | Why Your Sin Keeps Winning

    Do you find yourself falling into the same sins again, despite your sincere efforts to change? In this episode, Fr Columba reflects on why willpower alone is often not enough to overcome habitual sin, and how spiritual dryness can quietly weaken the soul. Drawing on the Church’s wisdom, he explains how God gives consolation not as a reward, but as a remedy to strengthen us where we are wounded. Whether you feel stuck, discouraged, or tired of beginning again, start where you are — receive the grace God offers — and let Him do the rest. 🔴  THIS SERIES Little by Little | Episode #257 Little by Little is a weekly video series by Called to More in collaboration with the Franciscan Friars of the Renewal.

    Ep. 256 | Got Spiritual Burn Out? (You’re Going Too Fast)

    Do you feel spiritually tired or burned out, even though your desire to follow God is sincere? In this episode, Fr Columba reflects on a simple lesson learned through running and how it reveals a common trap in the spiritual life: going faster than the grace God is giving. Through the image of pace, he shows how enthusiasm — whether after a retreat, at the start of a new season, or with good intentions — can sometimes lead us to sprint ahead of the Lord and exhaust ourselves. This reflection invites us to slow down, discern the pace God is asking of us, and rediscover a steady, humble way of growing in faith. 🔴  THIS SERIES Little by Little | Episode #256 Little by Little is a weekly video series by Called to More in collaboration with the Franciscan Friars of the Renewal.

    Ep. 255 | The Forgotten Devotion of St Francis

    Many of us move through our days without noticing what is closest to us. In this episode, Fr Columba reflects on a quiet but profound truth: the sacred is often ignored not because it is absent, but because we have forgotten how to see. Drawing on the witness of St Francis of Assisi, he invites us to rediscover a deeper reverence for churches and the real presence of Christ within them. This meditation challenges our habits of rushing past holy ground and calls us back to attentiveness, humility, and love — learning again to notice where God has chosen to dwell. 🔴  THIS SERIES Little by Little | Episode #254 Little by Little is a weekly video series by Called to More in collaboration with the Franciscan Friars of the Renewal.

    Ep. 254 | Books You Must Read in 2026 (And How to Read Them)

    Why does prayer often feel difficult or unfruitful, even when we’re trying our best? Prayer often struggles not because we lack effort, but because we skip what prepares the heart. In this episode, Fr Columba reflects on the role of spiritual reading and why prayer bears fruit only when we first learn how to receive. Drawing on the Church’s wisdom, he invites us to slow down, begin again, and let God lead the work. 🔴  THIS SERIES Little by Little | Episode #254 Little by Little is a weekly video series by Called to More in collaboration with the Franciscan Friars of the Renewal.

    Ep. 253 | God Came Because You Needed Him

    At Christmas, the Father gives us His greatest gift — His Son. In this meditation, Fr Columba reflects on what this reveals about Jesus and about us: that we are from the Father, loved into existence, and not meant to save ourselves. As we contemplate the Child of Bethlehem, we’re invited to let go of self-sufficiency and rediscover the freedom of knowing who we are and where we come from. 🔴  THIS SERIES Little by Little | Episode #253 Little by Little is a weekly video series by Called to More in collaboration with the Franciscan Friars of the Renewal.
