The Jesus Challenge for Young Adults
What does our Lord teach about discipleship in the Gospels - and how do we live it in today's world?
Living in our secular postmodern world is daunting. Catholicism seems under attack constantly, and authentic discipleship an insurmountable task. Is it even possible? How do we embrace Jesus’ words to his first disciples to know the Lord and be formed as his disciple now?
Let’s find out. If you want the bold and joyful life Jesus offers, if your heart yearns to better know and understand Jesus and his word, this series is for you.
