Rebuilding Discipleship in the Catholic Parish-Part III

This week, Peter and Leslie continue their exciting new series. The call to discipleship is fairly new to the Catholic milieu. Sherry Weddell, in her groundbreaking book Forming Intentional Disciples, said this: “We discovered, to our surprise and dismay, that many pastoral leaders do not even possess a conceptual category for discipleship.“ The Doane’s introduce what they are referring to as the seven pillars of Catholic discipleship. The second pillar is “Study and Learn Sacred Scripture.“ Catholics cannot be fed the Word of God by listening to Scripture only at Mass. St. Jerome, the great monk and bible translator, said, "Ignorance of Scripture is ignorance of Christ." Now more than ever, Catholic Christians must grow deep in the Word of God. This broadcast will help listeners esteem the Sacred Scriptures!
