"I'm sick of it. Are you not sick of it?" Getting thrown around like a rag doll in life is not fun. Feeling overwhelmed and jolted by every bit of bad news, every negative comment, every fear, anxiety or worry. But it doesn't have to be like that. Don't have your identity hijacked by the Devil and the lies and tumult of the world. Instead, keep it in Christ, and you'll find the glory and peace that you're called to.🔴  ABOUT USCalled to More is a Catholic not-for-profit media apostolate based in Ireland.

How many times do you walk into a Church? Once a year, week or day? Every time, there is an unimaginable amount of grace available, if we just engage our faith. Fr Columba explains door liturgies, why we make the sign of the cross when we enter, what it means to do that with holy water, and how a church can help us to prepare for Heaven, the place it's made to point us to.Donation page for Father's church: https://www.justgiving.com/campaign/SPM-Peaks-2023Registration page for Father's fundraiser: https://www.stpatricksmission.co.uk/3-peaks-challenge/🔴  ABOUT USCalled to More is a Catholic not-for-profit media apostolate based in Ireland.

Last week we looked at how to propose, not impose. This week we look in more depth at how to help someone convert, without nagging them. Having a close friend or family member not practise the faith can be very painful, as it should be. The pain of seeing one we love choose to reject Jesus is a great sorrow. So, what can we do?🔴  ABOUT USCalled to More is a Catholic not-for-profit media apostolate based in Ireland.

In the darkness of her final days, when she was dying of Tuberculosis and feeling spiritually deserted, St Therese displayed a bold confidence in God. With her feast day coming up this Saturday (October 1st), Fr Columba dives deep into these final days, and even reads some passages from the "Yellow Notebook".🔴  ABOUT USCalled to More is a Catholic not-for-profit media apostolate based in Ireland.

As Christians, we know we are called to live with high standards. Though it can be easy to talk about them, it can be a lot more difficult to live them out. To what degree do we pretend that "we've got this" — either to ourselves, those around us, or even to God Himself? What areas of hypocrisy do you struggle with, and how can you set some goals to truly be the person God made you to be?🔴  GIVINGWe couldn't create this series without our supporters.
