Listen Later

In this episode, the dogs experience some technical difficulties [8:55] and Danstrom dreams up his ideal audio interface [9:33-11:10] with some mock encouragement from Johnson and Metz [10:44]. Johnson brings up a new technique in prayer [11:20] and they all discuss using this new prayer as a way to enter into communion with Christ. Danstrom reflects on loneliness and its ability to worsen situations that are already difficult [20:10] and Johnson shares the fruit of this new reflection in the confessional [24:50].

Quotes:

  • [16:52] “You can’t pray with how you should feel, you have to pray with how you do feel” (Johnson)
  • [21:20] “It’s not that the evil one makes things happen, it’s that he takes things that are happening and creates a narrative in your heart… that God can’t be trusted.”(Connor)

    • Media:

    • Matthew 25:24-26 (Danstrom)
    • The Chronicles of Narnia: The Silver Chair by C.S. Lewis (Johnson)
    • The Two Standards meditation from St. Ignatius of Loyola’s Spiritual Exercises (The Standard of Satan: riches, honor, and pride. The Standard of Christ: poverty, insults, humility.)
