What does it really mean to follow Christ? What is He asking of me? Will I be happy? Our lives are part of a great epic story, and each of us has a role to play. In saying yes to follow Christ, we also are saying yes to helping others see that they have a great call. To follow Christ is not easy, but there is nothing greater, and nothing else that can bring us true joy.

Even the best marriages have tensions. But God’s graces and mercies are not exhausted, and couples need to learn how to persevere through difficulties to the miracle of unity.
