We have some pretty strong feelings on this topic, and it shows in this week’s episode.
Passing through purgatory is the experience that prepares us for heaven. There’s no greater insight into what purgatory is like than family life or community life. The most important thing you’ll bring to your vocation — whether that’s religious life or family life — is your capacity to be a man or woman of communion. This applies directly to mission, too. We can be obsessed with mission at the cost of communion, and that’s when your mission will dry up because it’s no longer connected to the vine.

He communicates in the depths of who he is that Jesus is alive and he’s real and he’s risen from the dead and this means something…

A New Vision
There’s a simple test of whether a conversion is authentic: do you treat people differently, particularly the poor? Does your spiritual life get reduced to “me”? Or to an exodus from caring about yourself at all? Your prayer is measured in charity. The quality of your Holy Hour can only be measured…
