When God's Will Doesn't Make Sense: Faith Amidst Hardship | Franciscan Fridays ep. 23


Listen Later

In this vulnerable and heartfelt episode of Franciscan Fridays, Brother Pius and Fr. Luke dive into the hard question: What do we do when God's will doesn’t match our expectations?

From personal stories of suffering and illness to insights into the Fatima apparitions, they explore our desire for control, certainty, and spiritual security — and how God invites us instead to radical trust.

They reflect on common spiritual traps (like treating prophecy or apparitions as fortune-telling), the temptation of conspiracy theories, and how true faith means living the Gospel through the ordinary.

Whether you're wrestling with unanswered prayers, frustrated by church controversies, or simply longing for deeper faith — this episode will encourage you to surrender, trust, and walk the little way of love.
