Ep. 96 | Why You Can't Find Peace

When you watch the news, do the wars in the world feel oddly familiar inside you? In this episode, Fr Gavan traces the conflicts we see around us back to the smaller war within each human heart, the pull of competing desires that leaves us divided against ourselves. Drawing on Scripture and the wisdom of Augustine and Aquinas, he shows that the peace Christ gives is not a feeling we can manufacture but a gift that orders the soul, so love of God comes first and everything else falls into its proper place. If your inner life feels at war, this is an invitation to ask Christ for the peace only he can give, and to begin carrying it to the people around you.🔴 THIS SERIESMeditations | Ep. 96Meditations is a weekly podcast with Fr Gavan Jennings produced by Called to More.
