How to See God Work in Your Life This Lent

About this sermon

What if this was the Lent you started to see God working daily in your life? In this conversation, Fr. Columba Jordan and Fr. Mark-Mary Ames unpack the Crux disciplines of Spiritual Reading and the daily Examen prayer. Together, they talk about hearing God’s voice in your prayer, how an "ordinary" spiritual life actually bears incredible fruits, and the hidden graces in struggle or even failure. Fr. Mark-Mary shares one of the most fruitful meditations he’s ever had and his favorite aspects of the Gospel of Mark, encouraging us to dive deeper into spiritual discipline this Lent. Join Fr.
