What if your suffering actually has a purpose?

In this episode of Franciscan Fridays, Brother Pius and Father Luke explore a surprising teaching from Jesus—that suffering is “necessary.” Drawing from the Road to Emmaus, Scripture, and real-life experiences, they unpack how pain, trials, and even humor (yes… muffins 😂) can lead to growth, redemption, and deeper union with Christ.

You’ll hear:

The meaning behind Jesus’ words on suffering
How to unite your struggles with Christ
Why Good Friday is called “good”
A powerful perspective shift that can transform your pain

🙏 Whether you’re going through a difficult season or just seeking deeper faith, this conversation will challenge and encourage you.
