How Hallow is reaching the lost (ft. Alex at Hallow)

Brian and Hallow co-founder Alex Jones, discuss the transformative power of prayer in evangelization. Alex shares his personal journey of faith, detailing how he fell away from Catholicism and eventually returned through a deep exploration of prayer and spirituality. They delve into the creation of the Hallow app, designed to help users cultivate a prayer habit, and discuss the importance of reaching out to those who have fallen away from the faith.

The conversation emphasizes the need for innovative approaches to evangelization, particularly in a digital age where people are often disengaged from traditional church settings.

Alex discusses the diverse content available on the Hallow app, emphasizing the importance of spiritual guides over celebrity figures. He shares transformative stories of individuals who found faith through the app, highlighting the role of celebrities in evangelization.

Alex reflects on Hallow's unique position within the church, aiming to build community through prayer and support local parishes. The discussion concludes with a prayer, reinforcing the app's mission to deepen users' relationships with God.
