TOP 10 TIPS
Fr. Mike Schmitz's Top 10 Tips for Lent
In 4 minutes, Fr. Mike gives us a Top 10 List of tips for our Lenten Journey. These "tips" are not new, but sometimes it is helpful for us to remind ourselves of the basics once in a while - especially when we are embarking on our annual Lenten Journey.
Pray every day in the days leading up to Easter with Fr. Mike, Jonathan Roumie, Mark Wahlberg, Chris Pratt, Gwen Stefani, Jeff Cavins and more.

GOD WORKS WITH YOU
How to See God Work in Your Life This Lent
What if this was the Lent you started to see God working daily in your life?
In this conversation, Fr. Columba Jordan and Fr. Mark-Mary Ames unpack the Crux disciplines of Spiritual Reading and the daily Examen prayer. Together, they talk about hearing God’s voice in your prayer, how an "ordinary" spiritual life actually bears incredible fruits, and the hidden graces in struggle or even failure.
Fr. Mark-Mary shares one of the most fruitful meditations he’s ever had and his favorite aspects of the Gospel of Mark, encouraging us to dive deeper into spiritual discipline this Lent.
