As we enter the final week of Lent, Mike Shaughnessy brings together Palm Sunday, the conclusion of Romans, and the Passion narrative in Matthew. At the heart of these readings is a powerful truth: everything that unfolds in Christ has been foretold in the Scriptures.

As we reach the halfway point of Lent, Daniel Dunkl invites us to pause and reflect. Whether the season has been fruitful, difficult, or distracted, it is not too late to make space for God. Lent is not meaningful because of itself, but because it creates room for the One who is ultimate meaning. Journeying through Romans 6–8 and John 4, we explore Paul’s powerful teaching on slavery and freedom,…
Words From the Brothers: Transfigured in Hope – Lent Week Two In this second week of Lent, Luis Arce reflects on the Transfiguration of Christ in Matthew 17 and the call not only to behold Christ’s glory, but to be transformed by it.

Join Peter Legaspi and the Words From the Brothers as we journey through the first full week of Lent.

From Jesus’ temptations in the wilderness to practical guidance for…
In this episode of Words From the Brothers , we enter the Lenten journey with the prophetic call from Joel: “Return to me with all your heart.” Reflecting on Scripture from Joel and the opening chapters of James, this meditation invites us to focus not on external observances alone, but on the interior work of conversion—rendering our hearts rather than our garments. Through themes of humility,…
