The Narrow Gate comes from Matthew
7:13, “Enter in by the narrow gate; for
the gate is wide and the road broad that
leads to destruction, and those who en-
ter through it are many.” This was also
the theme for Sacred Heart Major Semi-
nary’s theological symposium, “Enter
Through the Narrow Gate: the urgency
of the New Evangelization in the third
millennium,” held October 11-12, 2019.
