Description

There are thousands and thousands of people in the Church today, youth ministers, DRE’s, Catechists, Priests, Deacons, Religious, who are teaching the Catholic faith to others.  And from me to all of you, first of all ‘Thank You!!” You are sharing the best news on planet earth with a world that desperately needs to hear the truth that will set them free.  

And if I could be so bold I just want to offer only one small piece of advice - today’s episode sums it up.  When you teach, don’t forget to preach!  If every person who was teaching the Catholic faith, also preached the gospel, our Church and thus our world would be a different place, in my very humble opinion.  And today we are just scratching the surface - I want to open the conversation today about the tricky relationship between teaching and preaching, Catechesis and Evangelization.  I’m not gonna cover it thoroughly, think of this as just a dip in the water.  There’s an ocean of words that have been spilled on this very important topic.  

This is part one of a three part series of solo episodes. They’ll come out in between interview episodes.
