    S2E2: Cleaning the Heart — Obedience and What We Consume Matters

    In this episode, Sr. Gabriela reflects on Mary as the perfect example of obedience to God and purity of heart. Mary’s “yes” shows us what it means to trust God completely and allow His will to guide our lives. We also discuss how purity is about having an undivided heart, free from unhealthy attachments. Sr. Gabriela reminds us that what we watch, listen to, and consume can fill our minds and hearts with “trash,” so we must choose what is good, true, and life-giving. Ultimately, obedience and purity are not burdens — they bring order, peace, and real freedom, helping us live with God at the center.

    Valentine’s Day: A Love That Sacrifices

    Valentine’s Day is more than chocolates, flowers, and romance—it’s about a love that gives. In this short reflection, we dive into the true meaning behind Valentine's Day, exploring the sacrificial love of St. Valentine and how he followed the ultimate example of love: Jesus' sacrifice on the cross. As Catholics, we know Valentine’s Day is so much more than what the world tells us. It’s about loving others beyond words—through actions, selflessness, and sacrifice. Let’s rediscover what this day is really about and embrace the deeper, truer love it calls us to. Happy Saint Valentine's Day! Have a question, comment, or topic you'd like us to cover?

    Season 2, Episode 1: Kindness — The Bar Is on the Floor

    In this episode, Jordyn and Rachael explore the virtue of kindness and what it truly means to practice it in everyday life. They reflect on how the bar for kindness can feel surprisingly low in today’s world, where simple decency often stands out. They discuss kindness as more than just being “nice,” breaking down several virtues that fall under it—like dependability, courtesy, politeness, and discipline—as well as vices that work against it, including selfishness, malice, despair, and discouragement. Referencing The Hidden Power of Kindness, they highlight kindness as a transformative strength and a daily choice that can impact both individuals and communities.

    Advent Mini-Series: Charity

    In this episode of Wannabe Saints, we reflect on charity and why it is the foundation of all virtues. Drawing from Scripture and the Catechism, we explore what charity truly means — loving God above all things for His own sake, loving ourselves rightly, and loving our neighbor for the love of God. We look at how charity orders our lives, grounds our identity as “the one Jesus loves,” and perfects every other virtue through justice, humility, and self-gift. We also reflect on the radical call to love our enemies and how this kind of love transforms us and aligns us with the heart of the Father. The episode concludes with practical ways to live charity daily and a Litany of Charity.

    Advent Mini-Series: Peace

    In this week’s Advent miniseries, we dive into the virtue of peace—what the Church calls “the tranquility of order.” We explore how peace flows from justice, charity, and ultimately living in union with God. Drawing from Scripture, the Catechism, and the wisdom of the saints, we look at how trust, humility, and forgiveness help restore interior peace, especially in our relationships. We end with practical ways to cultivate peace in daily life and a prayer to Christ, the Prince of Peace. Resources Mentioned 🕊 Prayer to the Prince of Peace: Lord Jesus Christ, Prince of Peace, grant us peace. Arise and scatter the darkness of chaos and sin from our hearts and our world. May Your Word guide our steps, Your love fill our hearts, and Your peace rule in our daily lives. Help us to become instruments of Your peace, reaching out with compassion and forgiveness wherever we go. May we reflect Your presence in our actions and bring Your light to those around us. Strengthen us with Your grace, and lead us in paths of righteousness for Your name’s sake. Amen. Forgiveness Prayer with Fr.
