Fr Mike Schmitz. Generosity: The Greatest Spiritual Gift
In Matthew 17:20, Jesus tells us if we have faith as small as a mustard seed we could move mountains. The problem is most of us don’t put our faith to use. In this video, Fr. Mike invites us to make use of the gifts God has already given us. In doing so, we may become so overjoyed by our natural gifts that we can’t help but share them with others. Watch inside.
Peter Herbeck - Bearing Witness to Jesus
Why were we created by God? To bear witness to God's truth in your life. Do not be seduced by the power of lies. Watch inside.
