The One Thing Every Priest Wishes You Knew — it's not what you think. In this deeply personal and revealing conversation, Father Isaac shares the journey of discovering his priestly calling at age nine, the struggles of loneliness in the priesthood, and why brotherhood isn’t optional—it’s essential. You’ll hear stories of motorcycle rides with bishops, the radical impact of saint stories on a child’s heart, and how a blind priest with a guitar became a hero.

But the heart of this episode is a question that affects every parish, every priest, and every pew: How do we truly support the men called to serve us? From practical hospitality to spiritual friendship, Father Isaac breaks open what most priests quietly long for—but rarely ask. With candor, encouragement, and warmth, this episode invites men (and women) into a mission: to be the kind of community priests can count on.

Whether you’re a cradle Catholic, a returning believer, or just wondering what it really means to “support your priest,” this episode will challenge and inspire you.
