041: Bringing a Friend to Jesus with Brad Chase

Friendship is such an important aspect of the human life. It can encourage us to come outside of ourselves, try something new, and discover who we are. Our guest, Brad Chase, is a perfect example of this. In this episode, we discuss how his friendships led him to discover the Catholic faith, his involved with the Cursillo movement and becoming an active leader in his parish.
