Discernment Basics

The Poco a Poco Podcast with the Franciscan Friars of the Renewal

We are made to live in relationship wherein two or more people speak to one another.

As we have the desire to talk to God, He also has the desire to speak and to come close to His people. He is speaking to us.

We have to grow in sensitivity to what God's voice sounds like, what our voices sounds like, what the voice of the world sounds like, and what the voice of the enemy sounds like.

There are times we already know the voice of who we're talking to simply because we've been with them, we've spoken to them, we said things back and forth with them, same is true with God.

Discernment is not a mathematical equation but it is a tool for us to become more sensitive to how God speaks in our lives.

This episode talks about how we recognize the different voices around us and lays out some building blocks which are extremely helpful for our own discernment.
