S06 E05: Eucharist Amazement: May We Never Lose Our Wonder
About this episode
In this episode we talk about the central Catholic belief in the real presence of Jesus in the Eucharist and the new pew report that shows only ⅓ of American believe this truth. We share about how we need to renew Eucharistic amazement in tangible ways and share our own experiences of the power of the Eucharist in our lives.
