If Catholics could do this, it would be fire power

Danielle sees a shaking in the world today. While people say that all the time, she sees the Christian community, as a whole, reaching an undeniable tipping point. The divide between Protestants and Catholics is getting smaller and smaller, and she wants Catholics to get ready for a new level of Christian unity.

This is Danielle Brown. She is the Director of the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops Ad Hoc Committee Against Racism. She draws a parallel between Protestant powerhouse Francis Chan’s intrigue with communion and the Catholic Church undergoing a three-year National Eucharistic Revival. She calls this a “John 17 type work” that calls Christians to be one in Christ. Hear her view on the next phase of Christian unity. Learn more about Danielle:

Here. Now. All eyes are on Him.

Nathaniel doesn’t want to be a disgrace. While he and his family are witnessing 50,000 people gathered in a stadium doing one thing – he realizes he is responsible for his family. For him, the time to teach is now and the time to practice what you preach is ever-present.

This is Nathaniel Binversie, a full-time missionary. In this episode of MAX Stories, Nathaniel shares his experience of attending the National Eucharistic Congress in July 2024 in Indianapolis, Ind. He attends this event with his family, comprised of his wife and three young daughters. He talks about why he has taken up the mantel of guiding his family to a deeper love of Jesus Christ and how he asks them to engage with Jesus in the Eucharist.

Nathaniel shares his own understanding of the Eucharist at a young age and how that has evolved over time. He describes the challenge of “just being” with God even though he is a full-time missionary commissioned to do God’s work in the world. He also talks openly about the responsibilities of shepherding his daughters through the experience of the National Eucharistic Congress. With an astute awareness of his place in his family, he does not want to fail them in in living up to his own call from God to be the witness he is called to be to others and to those closest to him.

Hear Nathaniel’s inspiring testimony of obligation and hope in the future.
