Secretary of Congregation for Evangelization Speaks of Today’s Challenges

Archbishop Robert Sarah has some interesting insights regarding the “new evangelization” and he presents them here with gospel clarity along with a bit of wit and humor. His final comment was a good summation: “He added that while globalization and the communications explosion has made it more likely that non-Christians have a superficial knowledge of Christianity, that’s never enough. Real conversion happens not by hearing about Christ on TV or radio, or visiting Web sites, but with a ‘real personal encounter,’ and for that you need a missionary, he said.”
