Why is Christian community critical to living out the life that God has for you?The heart of this episode is the importance of community. It offers consolation and challenge, regardless of where you find yourself on your journey with the Lord.  Beyond Damascus is a podcast and radio show that seeks to empower the faithful, particularly the young-adult faithful, to understand and to live out mission and evangelization in their everyday lives. Like Paul, who embraced his call to mission beyond Damascus, we are all called to move forward from our encounters with the Lord into the adventurous, universal call to mission.  Visit damascus.net for more information on their mission. The SEEK22 Podcast is brought to you by FOCUS – the Fellowship of Catholic University Students.
