What does it mean to "win" Lent, or the Christian life for that matter? Fr. Patrick, Fr. Gregory, and Fr. Joseph-Anthony explore the deeper meaning of Lent, spiritual growth, perseverance, and Christian courage during a live recording at St. Mary of the Assumption in Brookline, MA with local young adults. Drawing on insights from Thomas Aquinas, Scripture, and pastoral experience, the friars reveal how prayer, fasting, and almsgiving shape the Christian life — not just during Lent, but throughout our entire earthly pilgrimage.
