    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.

    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.

    Ep. 268 | Do Other People’s Prayers Help More Than Yours?

    Do you ever ask other people to pray for you? In this episode, Fr Columba reflects on something simple, but often overlooked: the power of other people’s prayers. Drawing on his own experience of struggling through a demanding project, he shares how things shifted in a remarkable way once he asked others to pray for him. While we naturally pray for ourselves, there is something different about the prayers of others. God has made us to belong to one another, to depend on one another, and to support each other in prayer. We are not meant to do this alone. 🔴  THIS SERIES Little by Little | Episode #268 Little by Little is a weekly video series by Called to More in collaboration with the Franciscan Friars of the Renewal.

    Ep. 267 | Jesus Gave It All (What Will You Give?)

    Do you ever wonder what you can give back to God, especially during Holy Week? In this episode, Fr Columba reflects on the striking Gospel moment where Mary pours out an extravagant and costly perfume over Jesus. At first, it seems excessive, even wasteful. But Jesus receives it, because it reveals something of His own heart. What she gives, however great, is still only a glimpse of what He has already given for us. Holy Week is not just about remembering what Jesus did. It is about recognising the depth of His love, and asking how we will respond to it. His gift is not measured or restrained. It is total. 🔴  THIS SERIES Little by Little | Episode #267 Little by Little is a weekly video series by Called to More in collaboration with the Franciscan Friars of the Renewal.

    Ep. 266 | Are You Replacing Prayer with Content?

    Do you ever feel like you’re consuming more and more good content, but still not growing closer to God? In this episode, Fr Columba challenges a subtle but serious spiritual trap: replacing contact with God with content about God. While good books, podcasts, and videos can inspire us, they are not the goal. Drawing on simple, practical examples, he shows how we can pause, listen, and respond when God is actually speaking. If your spiritual life feels full but not fruitful, this is an invitation to slow down, make space, and rediscover real encounter with the living God. 🔴  THIS SERIES Little by Little | Episode #266 Little by Little is a weekly video series by Called to More in collaboration with the Franciscan Friars of the Renewal.

    Ep. 265 | Learn to Believe You Are Loved

    Do you struggle to believe that God truly loves you, not just in theory but in your own experience? In this episode, Fr Columba explores why so many people feel unable to receive God’s love, even when they know it is true. He shows how hidden shame and self-rejection can quietly block us from letting that love in, leaving us feeling distant or numb in prayer. By honestly facing what we believe about ourselves and bringing it into the light, we can begin to receive God’s love in a real and transformative way. 🔴  THIS SERIES Little by Little | Episode #265 Little by Little is a weekly video series by Called to More in collaboration with the Franciscan Friars of the Renewal.

    Ep. 264 | The Hidden Reason Prayer Feels Hard

    Do you find it harder than ever to focus, pray, or pursue the things that really matter? In this episode, Fr Columba explores how constant stimulation and “fast dopamine” habits like endless scrolling can quietly undermine our motivation, discipline, and spiritual life. He explains why the Christian life depends on learning to embrace slower, harder practices like prayer, perseverance, and meaningful relationships. When we step away from cheap rewards and begin to pursue what is truly good, our hearts regain the capacity for peace, purpose, and intimacy with God. 🔴  THIS SERIES Little by Little | Episode #264 Little by Little is a weekly video series by Called to More in collaboration with the Franciscan Friars of the Renewal.
