Teaching Faith to the Heart

10

​

After an incident occurred in which a young catechumen was angered and hurt by the way her catechist brought up and spoke on abortion, Angel and Carlos discussed the ways in which Church and Scriptural truths can be taught that does not diminish their ideals.  Young people are looking to be nurtured, hoping to find ways that the teachings are relevant to them and their own lives.  The old ways of teaching no longer work in a society that has access to so much more information.  We must change the way we teach in order to speak to the hearts of the young Catholics, and hopefully prevent them from disassociating from the Church.
