Our New Life in Jesus Christ: Archbishop Charles Chaput

Most Reverend Charles J. Chaput, Archbishop of Denver, discusses what it really means to be a Christian. The Catholic faith is not simply a collection of doctrines and ideas, or a body of knowledge or even a system of beliefs, although all those things are important.  At its root, Christianity is an experience; a life-changing, personal experience of the Risen Jesus Christ.
Being a follower of Jesus Christ is not just one among many different aspects of your daily life. Being a Christian is who you are. Period. And being a Christian means your life has a mission. It means striving every day to be a better follower, to become more like Jesus in your thoughts and actions.
