As Catholic disciples of Jesus, we mature to the extent that we allow the heart and habits of Jesus and his people to become ever more our own. The Way invites individuals and groups to reflect upon discipleship with Scripture, discussion questions, and prompts for spiritual exercises.
The Way, Part 2
In this second volume of The Way, we continue to reflect on our call to know and follow Jesus, particularly through the Eucharist, ongoing conversion (including the Sacrament of Reconciliation), the community of faith, and our call to mission.
