“What does God want me to do with this one life He has given me?”
In this “Year for Priests,” Marcus looks to the verses in Scripture that inspired him to follow Jesus. Marcus chooses a passage from Proverbs and the Parable of the Rich Young Man. Marcus also considered the work of the Coming Home network and the situations non-Catholic clergy face when they want to enter the Catholic Church.
Scripture verse: Proverbs 3:5-7, Mark 10:17-22
