In times of challenge, tragedy, trauma, and uncertainty, people need to be consoled with real wisdom ⁠— wisdom that can only come from God. We must become reliant on God's wisdom so that we can comfort others who need us in a world which is changing quickly. In this final episode of the first season, Kathryn discusses personal holiness, Christ and power structures, virtue, the Catholic Church, changing our thinking, and what people need to know most about God.

There's a space inside each one of us where we get to meet and know God personally. In one religious woman whom Kathryn knew, this space had collapsed. This woman always thought that she had no faith, even though she clung to religion and the Catholic Church. As she began to focus less on her lack of faith and more on those she was serving, she gained confidence in what she was being called to do. We cannot rely completely on our religious practice to tell us everything we need to know about God. Religion is meant to support the relationship we already have. Faith is a gift. If we make time to get to know God personally through daily prayer, we will get the grace to continue on in faith.

Faith. A mustard seed. The important things in life. Kathryn explains that faith is a gift, and one that we must continue asking for, even if we feel we have none. The more we engage with the divine, the more it informs our experience of the world around us. Kathryn shares some stories and exercises to help us discover what is truly important to us and what we need to do in life before our earthly journey is complete.
