In their episode for Lent this year, Frs George and John stick with the theme of vocation, but this time they are thinking about the vocation of the Church. Particularly in Lent and surrounded by much wilderness and division in the world, they discuss how both the local and global Church might be called to respond.

In the first episode of year three, Frs George and John record from a retreat, where they trained for ordination. They reflect on their first awareness of call and how God calls different people in all sorts of ways. They explore the call to priesthood and the call outside of it, reflecting particularly on a book by Archbishop Stephen Cottrell.
