In this episode, Bishop Daniel Felton (Diocese of Duluth) joins Sr. Alicia Torres and Tanner Kalina to discuss the differences between evangelization and proselytization. Make no doubt about it, the two are not the same.

Proselytization is all about the work of me, while evangelization is all about the work of the Holy Spirit. Proselytization is all about convincing. Evangelization is all about bringing people into the healing, hope, and joy that Jesus Christ offers us.

Bishop Daniel, Sr. Alicia, and Tanner also discuss how evangelization is an inherently Catholic activity. If you’ve ever been confused about evangelization, this is an episode you won’t want to miss!

In this episode, Fr. Tim Anastos (Eucharistic Preacher and pastor of the Newman Center at UIC) joins Sr. Alicia Torres and Tanner Kalina to discuss the #1 roadblock to evangelization… the feeling of not being good enough.

They share their own stories in overcoming this fear and reiterate that confidence in our identities, born from our encounters with God, is essential to getting through this hurdle.

They also talk about the four reasons someone might not feel good enough to evangelize:

• Past sins and wounds
• Spiritual envy
• False humility
• False view of God

Welcome back, everyone! Are you ready to be equipped for Eucharistic Mission?

In this opening episode of Season 3 for the REVIVE Podcast, Sr. Alicia Torres and Tanner Kalina discuss “Relationship, Identity, Mission” AKA RIM

Before we can really embrace the unique mission God has in store for us, we need to fully embrace our own personal relationship with him. Otherwise, we run the risk of forming our identities around our mission rather than our own sonship or daughterhood of the Father.

In this conversation, Sr. Alicia and Tanner encourage you to check out:

• Hosea 7
• Isaiah 49:15
• 1 Peter 5:10
• Henri Nouwen’s 5 Lies of Identity
  • I am what I have
  • I am what I do
  • I am what people think of me
  • I am no greater than my worst moments
  • I am no less than my best moments
• & this GEM of a quote from St. Bernard of Clairvaux: “The [one] who is wise, therefore, will see his life as more like a reservoir than a canal. The canal simultaneously pours out what it receives; the reservoir retains the water till it is filled, then discharges the overflow without loss to itself ... Today there are many in the Church who act like canals, the reservoirs are far too rare ... You too must learn to await this fullness before pouring out your gifts, do not try to be more generous than God.”
