What if you were there at the first Easter—would you have recognized the Risen Christ? In this episode, Fr. Robert McTeague, S.J., reflects on the call that comes with the Resurrection: to believe, to proclaim, to reconcile, and to live as saints. Because He is risen, we each have a mission. Let's take a closer look. Watch on YouTube:
