Why aren’t our kids staying Catholic? A new Vatican document says we’re facing a crisis in handing on the faith, and Dave thinks it’s also a huge opportunity. In this solo episode, he walks through Venite Ad Me from the Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith. He covers its call to rediscover the kerygma, build real community, and put parents back at the center of passing on the faith. In a world more connected and more isolated than ever, simple Christian love can change everything.

They explore why the Vigil is centered on those entering the Church, how the liturgy embodies the Gospel through signs and symbols, and why Christians should never underestimate the power of the Church’s ancient traditions.

What if becoming Catholic wasn’t just a class, but a public commitment that changes your entire life?
Gomer and Dave unpack the Rite of Acceptance into the Order of Catechumens in the OCIA process and why it marks a serious turning point in someone’s journey toward Christ. They explore how the early Church treated baptism as a life-altering decision, why the Church publicly “receives” catechumens, and what it means to say yes to following Jesus in a real, concrete way. They also discuss conversion, spiritual warfare, and why modern discipleship often lacks the weight it once carried.
