The attitude and content of every episode has the goal of deepening our relationship with Christ and His Church, in both gentle and challenging ways. What a gift to the Church and the world.
The range of podcasts from erudite to profoundly caring have deepened my spiritual life and my internal and external peace. Try out what looks interesting to you (e.g. the classics,Lord of the Rings insights, the wisdom of the saints, words from Mother Theresa's friends etc.) come back for more when you seek refreshment. I thank God for Discerning Hearts and for the love and wisdom of the podcasts.
Its helping me make sense of a lot of otherwise dense material.
Kris’ interview with Sarah McLaughlin was so inspiring I stopped to order the book before the segment ended. Inside the Pages is one of the myriad of segments I receive spiritual guidance from daily. Thank you!
