The Reluctant Disciple – Introduction

The Reluctant Disciple – Introduction

by Fr. John | Feb 10, 2020 | Book Club - THE RELUCTANT DISCIPLE by David Wells

The Reluctant Disciple – Chapter 1

by Fr. John | Feb 10, 2020 | Book Club - THE RELUCTANT DISCIPLE by David Wells

The Reluctant Disciple – Chapter 5

by Fr. John | Feb 11, 2020 | Book Club - THE RELUCTANT DISCIPLE by David Wells

How do we measure the success of our lives?  How can we judge if we have lived a good and meaningful life?  In this chapter, David Wells, reminds us that we are not the centre of our lives.  There are many transitions and changes in our lives but throughout all of...
