In this episode, Brs Brandon Berg and Vincent Mary Carrasco OFM Cap talk about the role of sports in their lives and the process of sanctification that comes with it. The brothers talk walk-up songs, a spontaneous Nuggets game in Denver, childhood memories, and the spiritual life.
Br. Vince talks about the humility that comes from losing while brother Brandon discusses the joy that comes from victory and winning. Together they'll remind us that true victory comes with Jesus Christ in holiness and sanctification! Sports can be a helpful analogy to the spiritual life where one must challenge themselves and strive to improve. Of honorable mention are Frassati Sports & Adventure from Denver, CO, the late Kobe Bryant, Patrick Mahomes, Kawhi Leanord, St. John Paul II, and Bl. Pier Giorgio Frassati. It is time to train for victory in Christ.
How have sports helped you grow closer to Christ and his Church?
In what ways have sports helped you in your humanity to improve as a person?

In this episode, Brs Vince Mary Carrasco and Brandon Berg discuss the annual event called World Day of Consecrated Life. The celebration every year coincides with the feast of the Presentation of the Lord in the Temple.
The brothers banter on history, reading, winter-break birds and then discuss their experience as consecrated religious. The brothers talk about the difference and the similarities between being called to religious life and making the choice to be a consecrated person. One description of consecration is to be set aside and dedicated for a particular purpose. The brother or sister in vows is set aside for a life as a symbol of God’s goodness and presence. The brothers also discuss the blessings of being a consecrated person and some of the nitty-gritty, day-to-day "pet peeves." Don't miss it this one!
