Archbishop at Theology on Tap

On November 7th, I gathered with about 50 or 60 Young adults at a local bar to meet the new Archbishop of Baltimore. In a session of "Theology on Tap", Archbishop O'Brien gave an address to the young adults gathered. It was an informal way for young adults to meet and receive guidance from their new "shepherd". He was very passionate about young adults and gave us some great insights for growth in our faith and service to the community.


I went with a group of young adults, many of whom attend ChristLife's Following Christ course. We were all very inspired by the Archbishop's words and excited to put those words into action. One thing that really struck me was when the Archbishop commented on his belief that young adults are capable of great self-giving.

I've heard it said that 'the youth of today are to much to themselves, to tied up in their own interests, to selfish. they're not going to listen to a message like this'...and I really resent that...I've spent the last twenty two years working with young people...and I've seen kids in the seminary willing to do anything to serve that neighbor of theirs that wants to seek Christ (Archbishop O'Brien at Theology on Tap, Baltimore).

ChristLife recently podcasted a clip from the Archbishop's address and well as Q&A with the young adults present. Listen in to this latest podcast here, or click play below:
