Talk 1: Family as a School of Love

The opening week of our lenten series focuses on the role of the family in the new evangelization.  The family is the "human space" of our encounter with Christ, so if we want to spread the gospel, we must spread the gospel of the family.  If you enjoy this talk, there will be four more installments in the coming weeks with study group questions for your bible study, light of the world, or other faith sharing communities. By Fr. Sean Kilcawley.
