Why is Formation in the Faith Important?

In the end, what matters most in life is whether or not we are a friend of Jesus. But what does this mean? And what does it entail?

Our relationships depend on our behavior, and our behavior depends on what we believe to be true–rightly or wrongly, for good or for ill–and whether or not that truth has taken up its home in our hearts by the working of God's grace, thereby shaping our desires, our motives, and what we love.

There is nothing more important, therefore, if we want to be a friend of Jesus, than to make every effort to form both our minds and our hearts according to the mind and heart of Christ (see Romans 12:2).  And that is what adult faith formation is all about.  So, please check out what’s being offered, and get involved!
