Rebuilding Discipleship in the Catholic Parish-Part VI

This week, Peter and Leslie continue their series, “Rebuilding Discipleship  in the Catholic Parish.” The call to discipleship is relatively new in the Catholic milieu. The Doanes introduced what they refer to as the seven pillars of Catholic discipleship. The fifth pillar is “Discover, Develop, and Deploy Your Spiritual Gifts.”  This fifth pillar may be the one most under-taught in Catholic catechesis. We have received a specific charism from the Lord to serve Him and build up the Body of Christ. Yet, we have a personal responsibility to pursue and cultivate these gifts from the Lord. This broadcast will help Catholics understand they have been gifted by the Lord with a specific charism, and the Lord will use each of us to build and rebuild the Church by exercising our individual gifts. Through Sacred Scripture and the Catholic Catechism, we can hear the call to "step out" and exercise the gifts the Lord has bestowed on each of us!
