Description

You are in for a treat today…you are about to enter “evangelizing catechesis heaven”.  If there is one thing that I believe about teaching and preaching it is that “when you teach, preach!”  Catechists can no longer (and this has been true for a long time) assume that the people they are teaching have a real life relationship with Jesus.  So…all of our teaching has to be imbued with the core Gospel message.  But HOW??  How do you do this?  Well this is exactly what we dig deeply into today!  And I am pumped for you to check it out!
