What does Jesus’ Great Commission mean for us today? In this foundational episode, Stina and Padre explore the roots of Virtue Ministry and its connection to Christ’s command to "go and make disciples of all nations." They break open how lay people—not just priests—are called to evangelise, live their baptismal priesthood, and take their role in the Church seriously. This episode is both a reflection on VM’s mission and a challenge to all Christians to step into their God-given calling with clarity, courage, and virtue.
