  • Why Do We Avoid Suffering? | Finding Meaning in Pain During Holy Week

    Why do we avoid suffering — and what are we missing because of it?

    As we enter into the Sacred Triduum, Malcolm, Alex, and Katy reflect on the meaning of suffering in the Christian life. In a culture that seeks comfort and avoids pain at all costs, how are we called to see suffering differently? What does the Cross reveal about our struggles, and how does God transform even our hardest moments into growth, healing, and new life?

    This episode invites us to slow down, reflect, and enter more deeply into the mystery of Christ’s Passion — not just as history, but as something that shapes our lives today.
