Episode Synopsis

Fr. Miguel reflects on the Franciscan tradition of the “Three C’s”—the Crib, the Cross, and the Ciborium—as places where Christ shows His humility. From the manger in Bethlehem, to His suffering on Calvary, to His hidden presence in the Eucharist, Jesus invites us to learn from Him, for He is meek and humble of heart. Drawing on Scripture, Franciscan spirituality, and the wisdom of the Desert Fathers, this homily shows the power of humility to make us like Christ and even defeat the devil’s pride.
