The holy penitential season of Lent is a time in which we seek to grow closer to Christ and His Passion, and we journey with Him through the Way of the Cross in order to prepare our hearts for the Resurrection on Easter Sunday. Father Daniel Klimek explains why we're called not only to give up material luxuries, but also to give up our sin so that we may die and rise along with Christ and experience an inner conversion of heart.
Then hear the story of Taylor Kemp, a former professional soccer player who experienced a profound conversion after realizing that his dreams felt empty without God.
