"We are travellers…not yet in our native land" – St. Augustine
Today I gave a talk on a retreat entitled “Jesus In Disguise”, where I look at the different ways in which we can encounter God behind the veil of the ordinary. The audio is available below:

Once four priests were spending a few nights in a cabin together. In the evening, they decided to share their biggest temptations with one another.
“Well, its embarrassing,” said the first priest, “ but I look at pictures I should not.”
“My temptation is worse,” said the second priest, “it is gambling.”
“No mine is the worst,” said the third, “I drink too much, once I broke into the Sacramental Wine.”
The fourth priest was quiet. “Brothers, I hate to share this,” he said, “my temptation is worst of all, its gossip and if you will excuse me, I need to make a few calls.”
