Do you ever feel discouraged in your prayer/spiritual life? Do you ever have thoughts of despair concerning it? Are you ever tempted to give up "trying to be holy?” If your answers are “Yes,” Yes,” Yes” (which they definitely are), the good news is that there are flawless rules to use to overcome these tactics of the enemy (Satan).
Fr. Timothy Gallagher, O.V.M., a true “spiritual giant” and one of the most sought speakers/author/teacher/preacher on the spiritual life, joins His HoliMess to discuss St. Ignatius of Loyola’s surefire Rules for the Discernment of Spirits.
If the Theology of the Body is for everyone who has a body, then the Discernment of Spirits is for everyone that has a spirit. That would be you! Therefore we hope this episode helps everyBody in their SPIRITual journey.
To paraphrase Fr. Gallagher, you can only play a game well when you know the rules of the game. The same holds true for the spiritual life. You can learn the Rules for Discernment now.
