In this compilation episode, Fr Gavan reflects on the nature of true friendship and the quiet ways it shapes the soul. Drawing on both human wisdom and Christian faith, he invites us to consider friendship not as something accidental or based on feeling alone, but as a calling rooted in virtue, patience, and love of the good. Through these reflections, we are encouraged to examine how we relate to others, how friendship forms us over time, and how faithful relationships can gently lead us closer to God. A meditation on choosing well, loving steadily, and allowing friendship to become a school of charity.
