Can you summarize your Christian faith in a succinct way? Can you articulate to someone else why they should follow Jesus? Did St. Francis really say, “preach the Gospel at all times, and when necessary use words?” (Hint: NO.)

In this episode, we take a look at the importance of proclaiming the Gospel with lifelong missionary Joseph Anthony. We unpack the Kerygma, and how powerful the simple call of Jesus is.

A while back, we posted a talk by our co-founder Frank Summers. In response, we have gotten requests asking to hear more from him. Unfortunately, Mr. Frank passed away a few years ago, so we are not able to have him as a guest on the podcast. We are fortunate to have many recordings of his powerful preaching and teaching. Today, we will revisit an address he gave in 2014 about Evangelical Catholicism. We hope you enjoy!
