Have you ever wondered how facing your greatest fears could lead you to a deeper, more profound sense of freedom? What if your darkest struggles could awaken a deeper spiritual calling?

In this episode, we sit down with David Hoang, an OC seminarian, who takes us on a personal journey from childhood fear of death to discovering the radical freedom found in God’s love. As we prepare for Lent, David reflects on how his fears became the very gateway that led him to the seminary and a life dedicated to spiritual service.

We will discuss topics of mortality, grief, and experiencing spiritual desolation, yet finding unshakeable hope in Christ’s resurrection. Discover how God's love doesn't restrict us but rather empowers us to thrive—through every challenge, every loss, and every moment of doubt.

In this Christmas special, we dive into the story of the three wise men and the gifts they brought to Jesus at His birth. What is the deeper significance of these gifts? How can we, today, offer gifts to God in our own lives?

We’ll explore the meaning behind the gold, frankincense, and myrrh, and reflect on how Jesus' birth brings hope to those facing struggles during the holiday season.

Join us for this special holiday episode full of meaning, reflection, and inspiration.
