The Frank Friar - Episode 86: The Media, Truth, and The Holy Spirit

Part of my life as a friar and a priest is the need to stay current about timely invents to serve the people of the area. For a while now I just see a big sickness in the mainstream media. As disciples of Christ we are called to be discerners of Truth. Yet, we do not discern alone but have been given certain gifts from the Spirit. A few of the gifts that are important in our relationship with the media is the gift of knowledge, understanding, and wisdom. Slander and Libel are serious concerns that both Pope Benedict XVI and Francis have told us about and called out the media on. I hope my thoughts help you to continue to grow in your relationship with Jesus Christ, which is done through the power of the Spirit.

The Frank Friar - Episode 127: We Can Be The Widows

My mind and heart are stewing a lot on the story of Elijah and the widow of Zarephath.  This was a reading that we had at the Mass on Sunday.  In a way, I think we need to have the disposition of the widow because we are the widow.  I talk about that insight today and the dangers of feeling we are owed things from others and God.
