Voted #1 Catholic Podcast for Men!

Episode 46 - The Discernment of Spirits

Ever wonder what those voices in your head mean? No, you aren't crazy (or are you?). We all go through doubt, peace, anger, joy, etc. and figuring out "WHAT DOES IT ALL MEAN?!" Men, you are not alone.

Join James and Ryan, the newly dubbed "scorn of the thorn" as they discuss the ever-popular discernment of spirits. Made famous by the great St. Ignatius of Loyola, James and Ryan discuss the basis of the discernment of spirits, great resources to become a spiritual master, and personal examples from both James and Ryan on how it has helped them. Plus so much more!

James' Challenge: Take 10 minutes a day and sit with the Gospel reading. Try not to think too hard about it. Reflect on one word or one line and just allow God to meet you in the Gospel.
