Do you expect Mass to change you? In this episode, Fr Columba reflects on the quiet but powerful truth that every encounter with God is meant to transform us. Drawing on the image of the Magi returning by a different way, he invites us to examine our expectations at Mass and in prayer, and to rediscover the grace God offers each time we come before Him. Whether you feel distracted, discouraged, or unsure if anything is really happening, this reflection encourages you to approach Mass with faith, hope, and love — and to trust that God is always at work, even when we cannot yet see it.
