The Jubilee Year, dedicated to the virtue of hope, was inaugurated by Pope Francis on Christmas Eve with the opening of the Holy Door in St. Peter's Basilica. But what is a jubilee, a tradition in the Catholic Church that dates back to the Old Testament? Father Andy Davy, MIC, explains, and reveals why this Jubilee Year is a cause for celebration. Then hear the amazing story of Jason Brown, a professional NFL football player, on why he gave up fame and fortune to make God the center of his life while serving others.
