Ep. 287 | Gluttony Isn't What You Think
Is it wrong to eat just because something tastes good? Fr Columba shares Fr Mike Schmitz's teaching on the two purposes of eating, nourishment and pleasure, and explains why pursuing either one on its own is fine, but working against the other becomes a problem. He applies the same principle to gluttony and temperance, showing that enjoying good food is part of how God built us, not something to feel guilty about. If you've ever felt torn between discipline and enjoyment at the table, this offers a simple way to think it through. 🔴 THIS SERIES Little by Little | Episode #287 Little by Little is a weekly video series by Called to More in collaboration with the Franciscan Friars of the Renewal.

Ep. 286 | Can Catholics Criticise the Pope?
Is it ever okay for Catholics to badmouth the Pope online? Fr Columba draws a clear line between disagreeing with a pope's personal opinions and disrespecting the office itself, and shows through saints like Padre Pio and St Francis why reverence for the office matters even when the person in it falls short. He explains what the Church actually teaches about infallibility, and where that line sits. If you've ever wondered how to hold criticism and respect together, this episode maps it out. 🔴 THIS SERIES Little by Little | Episode #286 Little by Little is a weekly video series by Called to More in collaboration with the Franciscan Friars of the Renewal.

Ep. 285 | How to Actually Pray the Rosary
The rosary can start to feel like empty repetition if you don't know what it actually is. Fr Columba breaks it down: it's a litany, a repeated pattern of praise and intercession directed to Mary, built word for word out of Scripture. He explains why that repetition is the point, not a flaw, then shares two stories of what happened when friends prayed a rosary expecting nothing. If yours has turned into something to get through, he offers one simple fix: stop racing to the end and actually pray it. 🔴 THIS SERIES Little by Little | Episode #285 Little by Little is a weekly video series by Called to More in collaboration with the Franciscan Friars of the Renewal.

Ep. 284 | What Makes You Righteous?
What would it actually feel like to know, deep down, that the Father delights in you? Fr Columba leads you through a simple exercise: imagine you had none of it, no closeness, no confidence, no boldness before God, and ask yourself if you'd even want it. Then he shows why you don't have to chase it. It's already yours in Christ, sealed at the cross, where Jesus took your sin as his own so you could stop hiding. This is an invitation to feel that, not just agree with it. 🔴 THIS SERIES Little by Little | Episode #284 Little by Little is a weekly video series by Called to More in collaboration with the Franciscan Friars of the Renewal.

Ep. 283 | What a Stranger on a Plane Taught Me About God
Have you ever heard someone talk about "the universe" instead of God, and felt strangely annoyed? Fr Columba unpacks a conversation with a stranger who used exactly that language, and asks what people really mean when they reach for "the universe" instead of a name. He walks through what makes something worthy of that kind of trust, unknowable, larger than time, holding us in being, and shows how close that language already is to naming God. If you've ever wanted a gentler way to meet someone where they are, this is a good place to start. 🔴 THIS SERIES Little by Little | Episode #283 Little by Little is a weekly video series by Called to More in collaboration with the Franciscan Friars of the Renewal.

Ep. 282 | Are You Loving People, or Using Them?
Do you ever catch yourself doing something and only later wonder why you actually did it? Fr Columba shares a simple discernment tool from St Faustina's diary: before any decision, stop and ask whether it's for God's glory, the good of your own soul, or the good of others. Paired with St John Paul II's contrast between love and use, it becomes a quick, honest way to check your real motives, even when the answer is uncomfortable. If you've ever wondered what's actually driving your choices, this is a simple place to start. 🔴 THIS SERIES Little by Little | Episode #282 Little by Little is a weekly video series by Called to More in collaboration with the Franciscan Friars of the Renewal.

Ep. 281 | Is Scrolling Damaging Your Soul?
Do you ever notice that scrolling never actually leaves you satisfied? Fr Columba unpacks why the infinite scroll is built that way on purpose, always teasing, never filling, and contrasts it with what heaven actually offers: God's full, undistracted attention and a satisfaction that lasts. Hell wants to use you and sell your attention. Heaven wants to give itself to you completely. If you've ever felt stuck in the scroll, this is an invitation to notice it, hit pause, and choose contemplation instead. 🔴 THIS SERIES Little by Little | Episode #281 Little by Little is a weekly video series by Called to More in collaboration with the Franciscan Friars of the Renewal.

Ep. 280 | The One Thing Keeping You From Holiness
Ever felt like living a holy life should be easier than it is? Fr Columba unpacks a line from St Francis de Sales that stopped him in his tracks: a devout life is easy, delightful, and desirable. Drawing on the plain image of building a habit at the gym, he shows how virtue starts hard and becomes easy, and how our own self-sabotage, not just the devil, keeps us stuck. His practical challenge: stop overthinking it, pick the one thing you already know you need to do, and just do it, imperfectly, every single day for a month. This is an invitation to trust that God's grace, not your own willpower, is what makes holiness possible. 🔴 THIS SERIES Little by Little | Episode #280 Little by Little is a weekly video series by Called to More in collaboration with the Franciscan Friars of the Renewal.

Ep. 278 | Are You Ignoring the "Small" Sins?
Do you find yourself focused on the big stuff while the smaller sins just quietly accumulate? In this episode, Fr Columba draws on the famous broken windows theory from 1990s New York to make a simple but uncomfortable point: the small sins you're ignoring might be exactly what's fuelling the bigger ones. He offers a practical encouragement to look at the low-hanging fruit, deal with the little stuff, and discover that the bigger struggles often begin to lose their grip. 🔴 THIS SERIES Little by Little | Episode #278 Little by Little is a weekly video series by Called to More in collaboration with the Franciscan Friars of the Renewal.

Ep. 277 | Why You Keep Going Back to Sin
Do you ever feel like you're not actually changing, that you keep falling back into the same patterns no matter how hard you try? In this episode, Fr Columba reflects on breaking his leg and discovering something unexpected: surgery works from the inside, so you don't need a cast on the outside. The change is real, even when you can't see it. He draws out the parallel to the spiritual life: God has already done something in you, something hidden, something solid, but the temptation is always to grab for the old ways because they're familiar. This is an invitation to cross what he calls the chicken line, to stop reaching for the cast and start trusting the surgeon. 🔴 THIS SERIES Little by Little | Episode #277 Little by Little is a weekly video series by Called to More in collaboration with the Franciscan Friars of the Renewal.

Ep. 275 | What Turns Suffering Into Holiness? (A Catholic Priest Answers)
Do you ever wonder why some people are transformed by suffering while others just survive it? In this episode, Fr Columba shares the story of a friend who died young of MS, and what he saw on her face in the hospice chapel: not grief, but glory. Drawing on St Paul's letter to the Romans, a talk by Fr Mike Schmitz, and a memorably dramatic night of very mild sleep deprivation, he explores why the same suffering produces radically different outcomes in different people. The difference, it turns out, is not how much you suffer. It's whether you shake your fist or say yes. 🔴 THIS SERIES Little by Little | Episode #275 Little by Little is a weekly video series by Called to More in collaboration with the Franciscan Friars of the Renewal.

Ep. 274 | What Most People Get Wrong About Christianity
Do you think of Christianity as a set of rules? A list of dos and don'ts? In this episode, Fr Columba opens with a striking line from the Acts of the Apostles: the angel doesn't tell the disciples to preach a doctrine or teach a philosophy. He tells them to share "this way of life." Drawing on his own experience of encountering Catholic teaching on the human person for the first time, Fr Columba walks through the practical essentials that actually make us human: works of charity, daily prayer, the sacraments, real fellowship in the Church, and passing the faith on to others. 🔴 THIS SERIES Little by Little | Episode #274 Little by Little is a weekly video series by Called to More in collaboration with the Franciscan Friars of the Renewal.

Ep. 273 | The Key to Spiritual Healing
What does it actually mean to be healed by the blood of Jesus? Recovering from leg surgery, Fr Columba reflects on the slow, hidden work of physical healing as a window into how the soul is healed in the Eucharist and confession. The wound closes because the blood is doing its job. Our part is to stop rushing it.

In this episode of Little by Little, Fr Columba leans into a piece of wisdom from Alcoholics Anonymous: every problem we face is, at root, of our own making. Drill into the anxiety, the lost peace, the frustration, and the cause is almost always the same. We are quietly trying to play God. Letting him take that seat back is more practical than we think. 🔴 THIS SERIES Little by Little | Episode #272 Little by Little is a weekly video series by Called to More in collaboration with the Franciscan Friars of the Renewal.

Ep. 271 | The Real Reason You Stopped Praying
Have you ever skipped prayer and told yourself you were just tired, busy, or stuck on your phone? In this episode of Little by Little, Fr Columba names the harder truth underneath all of it. Every time we cut a corner with God, what we're really saying is "I know best." He shares why daily prayer is the single non-negotiable in the spiritual life, why he still struggles with it himself, and how getting radically honest about pride is the first step back to real prayer. An invitation to stop dressing up self-will and start showing up again, even with the worst prayer of your life. 🔴 THIS SERIES Little by Little | Episode #271 Little by Little is a weekly video series by Called to More in collaboration with the Franciscan Friars of the Renewal.

Ep. 270 | I Broke My Leg (Here's What I Learned)
Have you ever braced for a pain that hadn't actually arrived? After breaking his leg, Fr Columba noticed something strange in the hospital: most of what he was feeling wasn't pain at all, it was the fear of pain. Drawing on Arthur Brooks and Jesus in Gethsemane, he reflects on how to tell the two apart, and how Christ meets us in both. An honest, gentle reflection if you're carrying real suffering, or just living in dread of it. 🔴 THIS SERIES Little by Little | Episode #270 Little by Little is a weekly video series by Called to More in collaboration with the Franciscan Friars of the Renewal.

Stop Fixating on the Church's Problems
You may have heard, Fr Columba recently broke his leg and is taking some time to rest and recover. While he's off his feet, we're re-showing an old favourite episode, still feels as relevant as ever. Please keep him in your prayers, especially for patience and a steady recovery.Do you spend more time worrying about what's wrong with the Church than actually bringing people to Jesus? In this episode, Fr Columba opens Acts 1, where the disciples press Jesus for information about the kingdom and Jesus redirects them to the mission he's actually given them. He asks a simple, uncomfortable question: is the fruit of your faith showing up in the lives of others, or have the weeds of distraction quietly choked it? A short, honest invitation to check where your energy is really going.

Ep. 269 | Learn to See God Like St Francis
Have you ever felt like faith only lives inside church walls or the pages of the Bible? In this episode, Fr Columba takes something as ordinary as water and uses it to trace the whole shape of the Gospel: Christ pouring himself down into our humanity, descending to the lowest place, shattering the gates of hell, and rising so that we rise with him. Drawing on St Francis of Assisi, he shows how creation itself can lift the heart to God when we learn to see it that way. A simple invitation to let everyday things draw you upward. 🔴 THIS SERIES Little by Little | Episode #269 Little by Little is a weekly video series by Called to More in collaboration with the Franciscan Friars of the Renewal.
