In this episode, meet Alberto Gonzalez from CtR’s Homeschool Connect and Trail Life. He shares his journey of vocational discernment and how, through prayer, he realized God was calling him not to the priesthood but to marriage and family.
What he once sought in that priesthood, he now finds in the everyday grace of fatherhood and family life. His story is proof that God’s plans often surprise us with unexpected, deeply fulfilling turns. A moving reminder that true vocation isn’t always what we first imagine… but when we listen and follow, it leads to an abundant life.
