Episode 277 – Meekness: The Manger and the Storm
Have you ever felt frustrated when Jesus seems quiet while everything around you is falling apart?
In this episode, the friars continue reflecting on “Blessed are the meek,” turning to two striking images: Jesus asleep in the manger and Jesus asleep in the boat during the storm. Both reveal a confidence rooted not in control, but in trust. Trust in the Father, trust in victory, even when chaos is loud and fear feels close.
They talk honestly about the frustration we feel when Jesus seems distant or inactive while we’re struggling. And they invite us to see that His silence isn’t absence, it’s the patience of love at work.
Join us as we learn to trust Jesus in the storm and discover the peace that comes from knowing He is already with us.
