A Word from Our Outpost: Faithful Formation for Catholic Missionary Disciples Joseph and Crystal Gruber
-
- Religion & Spirituality
-
A podcast for Catholic disciples who are wrestling to be missionary-minded in their normal, everyday lives.
Joseph and Crystal were Catholic missionaries for over a decade with FOCUS, the Fellowship of Catholic University Students, serving at MIT, UW Madison, Carnegie Mellon University, Western Washington University, and then at a parish in Jackson, Michigan. They're now the co-founders of Your Outpost, Inc., a marriage ministry seeking to awaken authentic Catholic culture through holy matrimony, equipping Catholic men and women through formation and accompaniment. Check out their work at https://ouroutpost.org/
This podcast serves as a place for sharing the transformational ideas, books, scripture passages, and people that we've seen impacting our apostolate for the better, in the hopes of serving other Catholic missionary disciples.

Great podcast!!
Joseph and Crystal, great podcast! I look forward to new episodes. In our world that’s forgetting how to have conversations, your reflections (and even your conversational example) are so helpful for fighting back.
I loved your podcast on Humanae Vitae, and I hope you do more on that document.
My go to Catholic podcast!
Joseph and Crystal feel like my close friends since listening to this podcast!! I recommend it to all of my students I work with and my boyfriend and I listen to each new episode to discuss over FaceTime. You are both such a gift to the new evangelization!
