The Lord lays out a very high standard in the Gospel of Matthew: "You, therefore, must be perfect, as your heavenly Father is perfect" (Matt. 5:48).
This call is both terrifying and exhilarating.
In the discouragement that happens when we fail, we easily can fall into poor habits, sloth, and apathy. The spiritual life involves a retraining and reshaping of our physical and mental health.
Join Fr. Stephen Gadberry, who competed on American Ninja Warrior, in his upcoming live seminar Spiritual Fitness: Body, Mind, and Heart to explore ways of strengthening our body, mind, and heart so as to better cooperate with the Lord's grace.
You will learn: How physical discipline and acts of penance can help us to rightly order our desires How to use both our reason and our creativity to better love our family, friends, and neighbors How resolution and commitment are necessary for the task of evangelization
Join Fr. Gadberry live on September 23rd!
