What is salvation anyway? I think this question is an important one to consider because we need to understand where we are coming from and where we are going. If you don’t know that--if you don’t know where you are or where you are going--you are, by definition, LOST!
So this episode of EvangeliNation is here to help you Find the Way. That's what we are about today, and we will be looking at Acts 16 to consider what is meant by this all-important question of the matter of salvation. Here's the link if you want to book a Finding the Way belief-coaching session.
Welcome to the first live podcast of 2022!

Have you started praying the St. Andrew Christmas Novena yet? It's not too late to catch up! Listen to this podcast to make sure you understand how to offer this unique and powerful bouquet of prayers, so that, like Mary at the Nativity of Jesus or again at the Wedding Feast of Cana, you too can bring the healing power of the Word into the world.
We are called to share, like Mary, in the mission of the One Mediator between God and Man: Jesus Christ (cf. 1 Tim 2:5); for, as St. Paul writes in his First Letter to Timothy (2:1-2): "First of all, then, I urge that petitions, prayers, intercessions, and thanksgiving be offered for everyone, especially for kings and all those in authority, so that we may lead tranquil and quiet lives in all godliness and dignity." So, let's get praying and interceding for one another! Let's bring the power of the Word to the world! If you have every been touched in your heart or learned something new in this podcast ministry, kindly do 2 things this Advent Season to show appreciation to our Loving Father for this ministry: 1) share this podcast with loved ones or friends, and 2) contribute the cost of a coffee each month ($4.99 recurring donation) or make a one-time donation in any amount.

Tune into today for another deep dive into reflections on the life of the Blessed Virgin Mary, the Mother of Jesus, who gave Her to John and to all "beloved disciples" for all ages as a Mother to be listened to and lovingly cherished. When we ask ourselves the question, "What would Jesus do?" we know that in regard to His Mother, He was most respectful, gracious, and affectionate beyond compare with any son who ever lived and loved a mother. Jesus wants us to love Mary as He did: in and through and for the love of God.

Today we continue our reading of Blessed James Alberione’s book Mary, Hope of the World.
We know that the whole world was waiting on the other side of Mary's “yes” to God’s invitation to bring forth the Eternal Word to the world. The same is true for you and me! There are people waiting on the other side of our obedience to the call to evangelize others. If you feel a calling to get better at articulating the faith and bringing life-saving truths to others, people are waiting for you to be obedient to that call, to listen and respond, to say “yes, Lord, here I am” and to become a disciple capable of being sent out as an apostle on a mission to bring the Word to the world. Mary and Joseph brought Jesus to the Temple, where Simeon and Anna joyfully encountered Him for the first time. Let's give that same joy to others waiting to know the power and the promise of a relationship with Jesus Christ. Learn to evangelize! Sign up for Catholic Evangelism Bootcamp. https://www.paulinecommunityofstjoseph.org/catholic-evangelism-bootcamp.html Did you know that you can support this ministry with a monthly recurring donation or one-time gift?

Today's episode is a reflection on that glorious moment of Christ's birth and infancy, when after being visited by the poor and humble, was next visited by the rich and powerful, the wise and learned of the east, who followed a star to the place where he dwelled in the arms of His Mother and under the protection of his foster-foster St. Joseph. So, follow the wise men today, and seek the face of the Christ. Bend your knee before Him. Worship and adore Him as your Lord and King. It was Mary, the Mother of Jesus, who evangelized these visitors from the east. She explained to them the deep mysteries of His incarnation and His mission to save humanity. Today, let us also, go to Mary, to ask her to teach us more about Her Divine Son. Additionally, as we turn the corner of the year and move steadily toward Christmas, I’d like to invite you to consider joining me in a deep study of what we believe and how we share what we believe in cooperation with our baptismal call to announce the Good News of the One who has saved us and to bring to others a reason for the hope we have in Him. You see, we are all called to evangelize by virtue of our baptism into Christ as members of His Body.
That's why you are invited to join us in Catholic Evangelism Bootcamp. Here in 2021, this boot camp is starting next week, October 5 & 6, with live sessions being conducted every Tuesday and Wednesday, and recordings available for people with busy schedules who want to learn on demand. So, check it out at the Pauline Community of St. Joseph website. That’s paulinecommunityofstjoseph.org. and when you get on the website, click on the tab that says “Learn” and then select Catholic Evangelism Bootcamp. There you will find more information about this evangelism boot camp and you will be able to register to dive right in with us in our two-fold purpose of examining how the Creed intersects with popular ideas being consumed by us and our loved ones today, and then we will study how we can fulfill our baptismal call to holiness by reaching out to those who have fallen away from the faith in order to bring them back to Jesus Christ, who alone has the answers to all our problems. Jesus Christ is the Face of the Father Almighty, come to us in small human appearance. He walked among us, performed miracles so powerfully that now more than 2,000 years later, everyone knows them and talks about them. He has changed the course of history, even for the most secular historian, and He has risen from the dead, which no one else in history has been able to do. He truly is the Messiah and Savior of the world. He has opened up for us the possibility of eternal bliss and happiness after this earthly life of toil and testing, and so, I want you and everyone to enjoy that everlasting fulfillment and beatitude, that happiness for which you were created and conceived of from the foundation of the world. So, join us as we raise up Catholic evangelists for our age. The time has come. Here's the link to register: https://www.paulinecommunityofstjoseph.org/catholic-evangelism-bootcamp.html |
