Fr. Dave Pivonka TOR, president of Franciscan University joins us to discuss the integration of personal formation for college students. We address the danger of over-spiritualizing – spiritual bypassing – and how many of the struggles in the Church in the last 50 years are due to human formation deficits. Fr. Pivonka shares his insights about how transformation first happens interiorly, inside oneself – and then radiates outward to change the world. We discuss the difficulties that college students frequently face, the importance of community, concerns about pietism, and embracing our true identity. College students and their parents will not want to miss this episode.
