Six stories of conversion from the Gospels as told by Father Robert Barron. The common theme in each story is the turning of all one's attention and energy toward an ever deeper, personal relationship with Jesus Christ. In his characteristically energetic style, Fr. Barron explains how conversion is not so much a one time event, but a life-long process. "Jesus Christ calls us in thousands of different ways to follow Him, as we strive on the path for spiritual excellence," explains Fr. Barron . This talk demonstrates how six ordinary people, just like you, were met by Jesus where they were and called to a better life through Him. "The struggle of Christian life is the struggle of conversion, directed toward holiness and eternal life to which the Lord never ceases to call us." -- Catechism of the Catholic Church (1426) “Don’t miss hearing Father Barron proclaim the call to conversion that is the first word of the Gospel, a word of truth and hope that each of us needs to hear; a message that calls for surrender to Christ.” --Francis Cardinal George, O.M.I.
