Are you looking for New Year’s Resolution to grow in your faith? This presentation was given by Fr. Andrew on August 22, 2023 to the leadership of his cluster of parishes regarding how a person (and a parish) share their faith with others in an open and non-threatening way. Using Acts 8:26-40, we discern a four point outline:
Work on our own spiritual life with the Lord.
Deepen and foster our personal relationships with others.
Be ready to give witness when people have “opened the door.”
Show them the next step.
Fr. Andrew then offers some ways this process affects parish life.
People are always watching. If they see our consistent, faithful witness AND we are sincerely present in a loving and honest way, there often comes a time when people will comment about our faith. It is at that moment that we can respond, showing how our faith helps us face the challenges of life, and offering an invitation for them to take a step that leads to knowing more about God.
While combined into a single two-hour podcast, this retreat has five parts, with each segment about 25 minutes in length. Fr. Andrew speaks about how the Incarnation of Jesus Christ impacts our Catholic Faith, Worldview, Personal Lives, Relationships, and Advent Preparations. Given at St. William Catholic Church on December 2, 2023.
