WATCH ON YOUTUBE HERE   Father Timothy Gallagher OMV is one of the top experts on Ignatian Discernment. He was a part of the God's Adventure Awaits Summit back in the Summer of 2020 and I am so excited to have him back on now! Father Timothy shares his priestly discernment story with me and together we talk about the role of desire in discernment. He also goes over the process of discernment, gaining counsel, judging, and executing a decision with peace and in relationship with Christ. We talk about what should be discerned, little every day decisions vs. big decisions. Also discussed is what true peace is and how to know the difference. Join us as we talk about how what God wants for you is to uncover the deepest layers of what you want, so that He can show you what his will is through those desires.   Topics Discussed What is worth discerning?
