Reflection Questions:
\nWhat is God seeking me to renounce?
\nWhat is He seeking me to declare?
If all that God made was good, what happened!? Deacon Tracy leads us through the first part of CAPTURED, reminding us there was one creature in particular that did not want to stay good: satan. With Scripture, the reconnaissance work has been done for us: we have intel on the enemy and know what to look for.
\n\nReflection Questions:
\n\nGoing through these questions with the help of the Holy Spirit can shed light on how the evil one has fooled us. The answers to these questions should be on the forefront of our minds (or at least in our notes) when we gather again for the following week for the second part of CAPTURED.
\n\nSpecial Guest: Deacon Tracy Esper.

Reflection Questions:
\n\nLent is a gift from the Church to us. It's the invitation to turn back to God and realize the grace He has for those who follow Him. Fr. Phil introduces the series: Jesus our Hope. It will be throughout the Sundays (and vigils) of Lent. Drawing from the good work of Acts XXIX led by Fr. John Riccardo, each Sunday will focus on diving deeper into the kerygma, the apostolic proclamation of salvation through Jesus Christ.
