Little Flower Men’s Night Heart of a Lion Catholic Men’s Conference Called to Be a Disciple Fr. Mike Schmitz Heart of a Lion Catholic Men’s Conference Grand Rapids, Michigan March, 2016

Little Flower Men’s Night Reflection . . . Is there a truth worth fighting for? Am I fighting for the right thing? Is there such a thing as “truth”? What I base my life on -- is that “truth”? Truth = “What is” (philosophy view) Subjective truth: all about me Objective truth: Know it? Like it? Believe it? --- doesn’t matter -- it’s still truth Truth question: Does God exist? Is Jesus who he says he is? Jesus is the Lord and the God  objective Jesus is my Lord and my God  subjective---this is what moves us to discipleship --- the battle worth fighting for

Other opportunities to deepen our faith . . . “How can they call on him in whom they have not believed? And how can they believe in him of whom they have not heard? And how can they hear without someone to preach? And how can people preach unless they are sent? As it is written, “How beautiful are the feet of those who bring the good news!” -- Romans 10:14-15
