About this episode

Using the parable of the weeds sown by an enemy in the what field (Matthew 13, 24-43), Fr. John Lopez Agundez of Riverview Centre in Montreal, tells about the enemies that might affect our apostolate, such as thinking that it is all about doing diverse things, rather than being an apostle. Or the danger of indifference about souls. Plus all the good things the Lord invites us to do in order to evangelize with his Word. The original was posted in July 17, 2020 at 11:35 PM.
