Why is Christianity so difficult—and why is that a good thing? In this episode, Father Columba unpacks the challenge at the heart of following Jesus. Drawing on G.K. Chesterton, he shows how the Gospel’s radical demands aren’t meant to scare us off but to invite us deeper into grace. True Christianity is impossible without God’s help—and yet it’s also the most rewarding life you can live.🔴 THIS SERIESLittle by Little | Episode #236Little by Little is a weekly video series by Called to More in collaboration with the Franciscan Friars of the Renewal.

Why does surrender feel so hard — yet bring so much peace? In this episode, Father Columba explores what it really means to hand your life over to God. Instead of trying to control every outcome or carry every burden yourself, surrender opens the door for God to act in ways you never could. Discover how letting go isn’t weakness but trust — and the surest remedy for stress, anxiety, and self-reliance.🔴 THIS SERIESLittle by Little | Episode #235Little by Little is a weekly video series by Called to More in collaboration with the Franciscan Friars of the Renewal.

Why do so many people miss God’s beauty? In this episode, Father Columba invites us to rediscover the lost gift of wonder — the kind that opens our eyes to grace in the ordinary. Drawing from Scripture, saints, and even Montessori, he challenges our obsession with control, coolness, and cynicism.
