Is there only one fixed way of praying? Do we have to be ‘super holy’ to pray? Is prayer just a monologue, or does God actually speak to me, too? Join us as we unpack these questions and share our personal experiences with prayer!  “I’ve learnt different ways to grow closer to Jesus, and how to have that communication with Him… Prayer is communication, just to go to Jesus as we are and to speak to Him in different ways.” (Beatrice)

The world taunts us with imitations of true beauty but we can celebrate and rest in our uniqueness knowing that the One who formed beauty in the very beginning said that [we] are good. Join us as we contemplate together the original meaning of true beauty and how God invites us to illuminate this beauty into the world.  “We do not merely want to see beauty... we want something else which can hardly be put into words—to be united with the beauty we see, to pass into it, to receive it into ourselves, to bathe in it, to become part of it.” CS Lewis

Too often, we find ourselves discontented in the pursuit of things that do not satisfy.  Sometimes, even our favourite Kopi-C doesn’t cut it! In this episode, we talk about learning to follow Jesus rather than follow trends, and letting Him be more than enough for us! "I thirst for you. If you feel of little value before the eyes of the world, it doesn’t matter. There is no one that interests me in the whole world than you." (Jesus to Mother Teresa)

In this season of change, we may feel a sense of loss in our familiar routine and even question who we are and whose are we. Join us as we share how we cling to the only constant in our lives: Jesus! “Even though we ask ourselves who am I, I think we really need to remember to also question WHOSE am I... Jesus Christ is the potter and I am the clay.” (Michelle)

This week, we open up about our struggles, frustrations, longings for the Eucharist but also the joys and graces of this season of “long-distance relationship” (LDR) with God. You also get to hear our first-hand experience going back to Mass after a really long while! "I urge you with all the strength of my soul to approach the Eucharistic Table as often as possible. Feed on this Bread of the Angels from which you will draw the strength to fight inner struggles, the struggles against passions and against all adversities." Blessed Pier Giorgio Frassati

Join us in this episode as we share about how the Lord uses our desires to bring us into deep communion and joy in life with Him. “The fact that the Lord transforms and makes higher our desires is something really beautiful to me… The Lord does not work against my desires.” (Joel)

In this episode, we share our faith journeys and what sacredness can look like amidst the trials, tribulations, joys and blessings of our lives. “[God] uses what we have, the sins, the failures, the imperfections; even in our deepest wounds He seeks to be glorified - and this is the beauty of living a life with Christ, to know that you are not alone. God is with us.” (Danielle)

In our first episode, we talk about how this podcast came to be, our friendship, and what being at the table means to us. “I think of the table as a place like that… that is not complete until each of us are present. If I feel that bit of joy whenever I’m gathered together with people I love, that is just a small taste of the joy that is present when the Lord invites us to His table.” (Joanna)
