Life can certainly be difficult at times, even seemingly hopeless. Some people may find themselves angry at God, asking Him why this could be happening. Perhaps we can see some light at the end of the tunnel, and find a way to stay in grace.
Discerning FOCUS
Deacon Jeff discusses with Miguel Rodriguez how he discerned out of a comfy job offer right out of college and decided to become a missionary for the Fellowship of Catholic University Students. Making life choices are sometimes tough, but rewarding.
