Our Response: How to Surrender Everythin...

ASCENSION
About this episode

What does it mean to really follow Jesus? Being a serious Catholic involves much more than just following set rules or believing the dogmas of the Church. Dr. Edward Sri explains that being in relationship with Jesus is at the heart of being Catholic. Jesus is inviting each one of us to an intimate relationship with him, to follow him. How do we respond? How do we surrender everything and follow him?

Snippet from the Show
The same Jesus who walked the streets of Galilee loves you and desires a personal relationship with you.
