Decisions, decisions...

Life holds a lot of options and it's often hard to know which way to go, especially when it comes to serious, life-changing matters.

Thankfully, we've got help.

St. Ignatius of Loyola penned his famous Spiritual Exercises to enable people to discern the spirits - discern God's will for their lives. And the great thing is that's it's not pie-in-the-sky.

It's super practical and down-to-earth.

In fact, understanding his Exercises can save you a lot of headache and heartache.

So join me and one of the most intelligent and holy priests I know, Fr. Aaron Pidel, SJ, for an in-depth discussion of St. Ignatius and his guide for our lives.

We're covering:

* A bit of the (wild and wooly) background of St. Ignatius* His massive conversion* An overview of the famous Spiritual Exercises* How Ignatius allows feelings to come into play without them taking over* The massive role of consolations and desolations* Practical discernment of God's will

Given my love of spiritual theology, this is an episode that is extremely close to my heart. I know you're going to get a lot out of it.

God bless!
