(Today's video/podcast is an excerpt from "The 99, A New System for Evangelization." To learn more about this amazing resource visit: https://tinyurl.com/2fwtspve )
One of the most difficult groups to bring the Gospel to right now is young adults. Fr. Mike proposes that it's not a lack of time or interest preventing them from receiving the Good News—it's their perception of Christianity.
How can anyone evangelize in a culture so opposed to Jesus? We need to meet a hurting world where it is at and bring it the only medicine that will heal it.
We'll be doing things a little bit differently on Wednesdays for the next few weeks while Fr. Mike and Ascension work on the Catechism in a Year podcast. If you'd like to learn more about the podcast (and help support our work!) check out http://ascensionpress.com/ciy

0:00.0 | Hi, my name is Father Mike Schmitz and this is Ascension Resents. |
0:02.4 | We're kind of continuing the process like we started last week with that video on Jesus, |

0:32.6 | And so we made this video, made the whole program with the idea behind it being what's |
0:38.2 | the need? |
0:39.2 | What do we need to do? |
0:40.2 | What we need to find those who are lost? |
0:42.0 | We need to go after those who have wandered away. |
0:45.4 | And one of the groups of people that is just near and dear to my heart are young adults. |
0:51.6 | It's basically when I first got ordained the Bishop assigned me to the Youth and Young |
0:56.4 | Adult Ministry and assigned me to campus, working in campus ministry. |
1:00.2 | And that's what I've done for virtually almost my entire priesthood. |
1:03.6 | And so young adults are in so many ways they are the one, they're the one that we need |
1:08.4 | to pursue. |
1:10.5 | And so here's a video about young adults and the church comes from the program called |
