Why the Church?

Adrianna, Giuli and Sofi discuss the Church, the continued presence of Jesus Christ on earth. What does it mean to belong to and depend on the Church? How can we verify in our lives that the Church really is Christ? And what do we do when faced with the sins and brokenness of her members? // Our media recommendation is a playlist of songs that remind us of the Church. You can find it at this link: www.tinyurl.com/4bcpk6r4, or by searching “mater et magistra” on Spotify. And our monthly challenge is to read Lumen Gentium with a friend. You can find that here: www.tinyurl.com/546nwfuy. // We’d love to hear from you! Write to us at [email protected] or find us on Instagram at @pilgrimsoulpodcast.
