Breaking in the Habit is a wonderful resource for anyone interested in and/or discerning the Franciscan life. Holy Name Province friar Fr. Casey Cole, OFM, started Breaking in the Habit when he was a postulant as a way of chronicling his experiences in the Franciscan formation program. Today, the mission of Breaking in the Habit is to evangelize and catechize in the Franciscan spirit in order to promote faith, energize communities, inspire active involvement, and encourage vocations to consecrated life.

Below is a sample of Fr. Casey's videos that relate to vocations and life as a friar. He also produces videos on various aspects of Catholicism through series such as Parts of the Mass and Catholicism in Focus. For more great videos, articles, reflections, and resources, visit Fr. Casey’s website at www.breakinginthehabit.org and his YouTube channel, Breaking in the Habit. You can also connect with Fr. Casey on Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter.
