The Discernment of Spirits

Описание: In this episode of the Fiat Health Podcast, Meg and Shawn dive into the deeply practical topic of the discernment of spirits! Based on St. Ignatius of Loyola’s writings, they not only share how to recognize the voice of the Holy Spirit versus the voice of the enemy but also how experiences of consolation and desolation can help guide us within the discernment process. Using real-life examples and Scripture, Meg and Shawn explain why major decisions should be made in times of spiritual consolation—not desolation—and how to respond when we feel far away from God. This episode offers practical guidance for anyone longing to hear God more clearly and make decisions rooted in faith and freedom.
