"Today, what gets celebrated is a tiny little bit of real faith. And Jesus magnifies it and multiplies it," Father Perry tells us for the fifth episode of our Advent podcast, for Friday of the First Week of Advent. "How many things in our life — maybe some of them are desperate. We believe and we really want more out of life, that we come to the Lord and say, 'Lord, I do believe in you. Help this grow in my spirit. Give me your light. Give me your understanding. Give me your compassion. Give me your mercy. Please touch me with it, Lord. I know with your touch, it will make a difference.' And coming with a tiny bit of faith, it's quite surprising how that faith can grow."
