SEEK24 x knowHis.love - Being The Light in Anticipation for, During, and After SEEK24
In his first encyclical, John Paul II wrote:"Man cannot live without love. He remains a being that is incomprehensible for himself, his life is senseless, if love is not revealed to him, if he does not encounter love, if he does not experience it and make it his own, if he does not participate intimately in it."In a world full of people starving for meaning and direction, we hope to provide resources to inspire each person to live in an ever deepening relationship with God and participate more fully in their baptismal identity as beloved sons and daughters of the Father. In this episode, Fr. Michael and Molly are joined by Issy, Madeline, and Julia to discuss their past experiences at SEEK as well as to talk about what it means to "be the light" in anticipation of SEEK24.
