When he wondered what the meaning of life was, Islam presented an answer that was worthy of listening.

George was confirmed in the Church of his baptism after an encounter with Christ in the Eucharist. Listen to this amazing story that touches on the troubles of lukewarm Christianity and the need for a robust religion.
