Listen Later

Do you struggle to focus and find yourself distracted often? You are not alone. In this episode, Virginia Koch discusses the different types of attention and sheds light on how distractions can hinder our ability to focus. She shares examples and practical tips to cultivate deeper concentration and overcome the myriad of distractions that bombard us daily.

“Be attentive to my words; incline your ear to my sayings.” (Proverbs 4:20)

Drawing from biblical verses and real-life examples, she connects the challenges of attention and distraction to the spiritual journey of college students and urges us to resist the temptations of the enemy.

Virginia provides insight into how the enemy seeks to disrupt our connection with God. This episode also includes a prayer for increased concentration and a link to Jesuit prayers for students in the show notes.
