Can Humility & Confidence Go Together?
Humility means not only are we to develop our character with moderation to how we perceive ourselves, but we are also anchored in knowing who we are in the face of God.

S04 Ep19 – Merry Christmas
Stina and Fr Sean Byrnes take this time before Christmas to help us prepare for the 4 Sunday of Advent and Christmas Day back to back.

His Manger, My Heart – Together Paper
Emily Shaw treats us to the
idea of ‘firsts’ this Christmas – first Christmas as a
family, first Christmas with empty chairs round the
table, firsts for joy and firsts for great sorrows. Emily
writes how from the process of life, our hearts may
require healing, and how they are like mangers,
imperfect, sometimes ragged, but having the capacity
to allow Christ to rest in them, regardless of the type of
Christmas experience we have.
S04 Ep18 – ‘Rejoice’- Advent Episode 3
Part 3 of our Advent series has us talking about joy and rejoicing taken from Philippians 4:4. Padre and Stina discuss the necessity of rooting and cultivating one’s joy in the depth of Christ Jesus during Advent, and not being persuaded or hoping to find one’s true Christmas joy in the materialism of the season, nor even the ‘perfect’ Christmas dinner.
