155 The Night I Caught a 91-Year-Old at Mass

About this episode

The episode discusses the unexpected ways God invites us into His work through personal stories and reflections on faith during the Easter Vigil.

What starts as a late-night Easter Vigil run to McDonald’s turns into something much deeper: a conversation about readiness, calling, and the unexpected ways God invites us into His work. The guys share stories from the Triduum—from cheeseburgers and melting ice cream to a powerful Holy Thursday moment where Kory catches a falling 91-year-old woman during the washing of the feet. What unfolds is more than a close call—it’s a glimpse into how God forms us over time for moments we never see coming. Drawing on the witness of St. Maximilian Kolbe, the beauty of the Easter Vigil, and the daily call to discipleship, this episode explores a simple but challenging truth: God’s call isn’t usually planned—it’s lived. If we want to respond in the big moments, we have to practice saying yes in the small ones. Key takeaway: Stay close to Jesus, live with virtue, and be ready—because you never know when you’ll be called into something holy.
