    Ep. 275 | What Turns Suffering Into Holiness? (A Catholic Priest Answers)

    Do you ever wonder why some people are transformed by suffering while others just survive it? In this episode, Fr Columba shares the story of a friend who died young of MS, and what he saw on her face in the hospice chapel: not grief, but glory. Drawing on St Paul's letter to the Romans, a talk by Fr Mike Schmitz, and a memorably dramatic night of very mild sleep deprivation, he explores why the same suffering produces radically different outcomes in different people. The difference, it turns out, is not how much you suffer. It's whether you shake your fist or say yes. 🔴  THIS SERIES Little by Little | Episode #275 Little by Little is a weekly video series by Called to More in collaboration with the Franciscan Friars of the Renewal.

    Ep. 274 | What Most People Get Wrong About Christianity

    Do you think of Christianity as a set of rules? A list of dos and don'ts? In this episode, Fr Columba opens with a striking line from the Acts of the Apostles: the angel doesn't tell the disciples to preach a doctrine or teach a philosophy. He tells them to share "this way of life." Drawing on his own experience of encountering Catholic teaching on the human person for the first time, Fr Columba walks through the practical essentials that actually make us human: works of charity, daily prayer, the sacraments, real fellowship in the Church, and passing the faith on to others. 🔴  THIS SERIES Little by Little | Episode #274 Little by Little is a weekly video series by Called to More in collaboration with the Franciscan Friars of the Renewal.

    Ep. 273 | The Key to Spiritual Healing

    What does it actually mean to be healed by the blood of Jesus? Recovering from leg surgery, Fr Columba reflects on the slow, hidden work of physical healing as a window into how the soul is healed in the Eucharist and confession. The wound closes because the blood is doing its job. Our part is to stop rushing it. A few unhurried minutes in your pew after Mass do more than we realise. 🔴  THIS SERIES Little by Little | Episode #273 Little by Little is a weekly video series by Called to More in collaboration with the Franciscan Friars of the Renewal.

    Ep. 272 | Why You Keep Losing Your Peace

    Do you ever feel like God is irrelevant to your actual daily life? In this episode of Little by Little, Fr Columba leans into a piece of wisdom from Alcoholics Anonymous: every problem we face is, at root, of our own making. Drill into the anxiety, the lost peace, the frustration, and the cause is almost always the same. We are quietly trying to play God. Letting him take that seat back is more practical than we think. 🔴  THIS SERIES Little by Little | Episode #272 Little by Little is a weekly video series by Called to More in collaboration with the Franciscan Friars of the Renewal.

    Ep. 271 | The Real Reason You Stopped Praying

    Have you ever skipped prayer and told yourself you were just tired, busy, or stuck on your phone? In this episode of Little by Little, Fr Columba names the harder truth underneath all of it. Every time we cut a corner with God, what we're really saying is "I know best." He shares why daily prayer is the single non-negotiable in the spiritual life, why he still struggles with it himself, and how getting radically honest about pride is the first step back to real prayer. An invitation to stop dressing up self-will and start showing up again, even with the worst prayer of your life. 🔴  THIS SERIES Little by Little | Episode #271 Little by Little is a weekly video series by Called to More in collaboration with the Franciscan Friars of the Renewal.

    Ep. 270 | I Broke My Leg (Here's What I Learned)

    Have you ever braced for a pain that hadn't actually arrived? After breaking his leg, Fr Columba noticed something strange in the hospital: most of what he was feeling wasn't pain at all, it was the fear of pain. Drawing on Arthur Brooks and Jesus in Gethsemane, he reflects on how to tell the two apart, and how Christ meets us in both. An honest, gentle reflection if you're carrying real suffering, or just living in dread of it. 🔴  THIS SERIES Little by Little | Episode #270 Little by Little is a weekly video series by Called to More in collaboration with the Franciscan Friars of the Renewal.

    Stop Fixating on the Church's Problems

    You may have heard, Fr Columba recently broke his leg and is taking some time to rest and recover. While he's off his feet, we're re-showing an old favourite episode, still feels as relevant as ever. Please keep him in your prayers, especially for patience and a steady recovery.Do you spend more time worrying about what's wrong with the Church than actually bringing people to Jesus? In this episode, Fr Columba opens Acts 1, where the disciples press Jesus for information about the kingdom and Jesus redirects them to the mission he's actually given them. He asks a simple, uncomfortable question: is the fruit of your faith showing up in the lives of others, or have the weeds of distraction quietly choked it? A short, honest invitation to check where your energy is really going.

    Ep. 269 | Learn to See God Like St Francis

    Have you ever felt like faith only lives inside church walls or the pages of the Bible? In this episode, Fr Columba takes something as ordinary as water and uses it to trace the whole shape of the Gospel: Christ pouring himself down into our humanity, descending to the lowest place, shattering the gates of hell, and rising so that we rise with him. Drawing on St Francis of Assisi, he shows how creation itself can lift the heart to God when we learn to see it that way. A simple invitation to let everyday things draw you upward. 🔴  THIS SERIES Little by Little | Episode #269 Little by Little is a weekly video series by Called to More in collaboration with the Franciscan Friars of the Renewal.
