Conversion and Detachment: Preparing for Lent

from Come Away By Yourselves Hosted by Fr. John Grieco

Lent is a great opportunity for conversion. Conversion is a deep change of mind and heart: to leave behind the wisdom of the world in order to have the mind of Christ. The beatitudes are a call to conversion. They contradict what the world considers as essential to a good life. The first beatitude, "blessed are the poor in spirit" is particularly helpful for us in our often materialistic and consumerist culture. Lent provides us with a season to practice detachment and to foster interior silence, making space for an encounter with God. https://comeawaybyyourselves.com
