Welcome The Stranger
Do we just assume that anyone who shows up at Mass already knows what it means to be Catholic? Do we really ever reach outside our property line to evangelize or do we wait for them to come to us? Does our parish have an easy “on-ramp” or introductory way to find out more about our faith? These are all good questions we should be asking ourselves as Christians. Join Deacon Jeff and Tom in the Luxurious Corner Booth as they take on the topic of welcoming the stranger.
Evangelizing The Issues
We all agree that we need to evangelize. In fact, in the Great Commission, Jesus commands us to do so. The problem is that when we encounter those with whom we are attempting to share the Good News, we inevitably get bogged down in the hot-button issues of the day. So what do we focus on? Join Deacon Jeff and Tom in the Luxurious Corner Booth as they discuss what (in their humble opinion) evangelization truly boils down to.
Brick Walls Of Evangelization
When you wake up in the morning to start your day, do you see a day filled with the opportunity to share the Gospel, or do you see nothing but a great big wall? Join Deacon Jeff and Tom in the Luxurious Corner Booth as they discuss the many obstacles of evangelizing and the way around (or through) them.
Everyday Evangelization
When it comes to your faith, are you a “professional student”…someone who continually stocks up on knowledge, but may be too afraid to put it to use evangelizing? Join Deacon Jeff, Tom and Doug in the Luxurious Corner Booth for an interesting discussion of ways that average, everyday Catholics can share the gospel message of hope to all those they encounter day-to-day.

Are you an evangelist? Do you even know what it really means to be an evangelist?
