Our Faith in Action

Lights, Catholic, Action! S2 Ep. 40: The Secret to Real Christian Joy

In our final episode of Season 2, guest host Christina Benavides chats with Catholic speaker and evangelist Ali Hoffman, a parishioner of St. Catherine of Siena in Carrollton. Hoffman shares how a shy introvert became a joyful missionary disciple — traveling the world, encouraging thousands online, and helping others discover a real, personal relationship with Jesus. From viral family dance videos to prayer closets, handwritten encouragement letters, and deep reflections on the Holy Spirit, Ali reveals how ordinary joy and simple faith can become powerful tools for evangelization.
