I’ve been away from the faith for a long time. In the last year there has been a spirit of inspiration to learn more about faith and an inclination to walk again toward the narrow gate. I’ve enjoyed very much finding these Brothers of faith. I had a very antiquated idea of friars and monks being very quiet, solemn, elderly faith workers. These Brothers have updated my understanding. Not only are they “regular” guys, it seems they are Dudes. They bust each other’s chops relentlessly, laugh with abandon, speak with a youthful vernacular (like dudes), and with every episode make clear the simple, perfect message that you are loved, you are wanted, you belong, and there is a plan for your life, regardless of where, what, and who you are or what you’ve been. The episodes on conversion based on lessons of a Fr. Haggarty, who I’d like to learn more of, are so beautiful and hopeful. I’m excitedly ploughing through these with many more to go. Please keep up the work Brothers. This is needed material. You are all helping me and I bet so many others with your message of hope and belonging. Our world isn’t a forgiving place and it’s nice to hear this message of love. I am making way. These knuckleheads of the faith have so much to give.
