In my last two columns I’ve looked at the sacramental vocations of matrimony and holy orders. While these two vocations are fundamental to the life of the Church (there can be no Church without priests and families!), they are by no means the only ways to serve God and pursue holiness.
How would you respond if, like the great prophets of old, you heard God’s voice calling you to be a prophet in the world right now? Today, many people are put off and annoyed by anyone sharing the message of Jesus Christ. In many ways, Christianity is being marginalized.
