Show Notes

Do you feel like it’s hard to be totally real with God? Do you have trouble calming your mind and letting go of your to do list to pray? Do you feel frustrated with yourself and wish you could just be better?

Enter the Colloquy, a fancy word for “conversation” in St. Ignatius of Loyola’s formula. It’s a simple formula- literally 3 quick steps- anyone can use to have an authentic connection to the Lord. In the first few minutes I explain how to make a colloquy, then I move onto my own experience of making a colloquy.

Jesus’s love is unreal. In reading The Interior Castle I’ve had the good (hard) realization of how far I have to go before I’m ready for sainthood. Honesty is good, but I’ve felt so frustrated with myself lately. Jesus totally changed my heart and my outlook with his response. I hope my testimony gives you hope and encourages you to try making a colloquy
