Consolation, Desolation, and Spiritual Growth

Fr. Sam and Matt continue their conversation on St. Therese of Lisieux from last week, diving into some of the fundamentals of prayer - consolation and desolation. Fr. Sam draws the distinction between the two categories and then their subcategories (spiritual vs. non-spiritual consolation/desolation). He uses the teachings of St. Ignatius of Loyola as the launching pad for this discussion.  Email List: https://www.veritascatholic.com/ Other shows Daily Gospel Reflections: https://dailycatholicreflection.podbean.com/ Let Me Be Frank: https://bridgeportdiocese.podbean.com/ The Frontline With Joe & Joe: https://thefrontlinewithjoeandjoe.podbean.com/ Restless Catholic Young Adults: https://restlesscatholicmedia.podbean.com/ Keywords Tangent, consolation, desolation, prayer, consistency, spiritual growth, faith, Lewis and Clark, The Chosen
