Who is Jesus

Father Ronald Rolheiser on giving your life away

by Father Ronald Rolheiser, OMI

Discipleship to Jesus takes a lifetime. What do we do when it gets confusing, painful, or just plain boring?

John Mark sat down with Father Ron Rolheiser, a priest, theologian, professor, and award-winning author, to discuss this kind of ordinary apprenticeship to Jesus.

They reflect on how living with Jesus shifts over the course of our lives — from trying to get your life together in your twenties and thirties, to seeking to give the rest of your life away.

This conversation was recorded back when the Practicing the Way book was released, and we’re glad to be sharing it to a broader audience now.
