Description
In this episode of The Catholic Gentleman, Sam and John discuss the growth in atheism, the order of white monks, and discerning God's will. We are joined by a Cistercian Monk, Fr. John Bayer, who shares his incredible story of discernment in where God was clearly seeking him. We dive into his years as a monk and his passion for discerning the balance between Faith and Reason.
In this episode we discuss;
How do we harmonize Faith and Reason correctly
How modern atheists have to deny themselves
Learn to inspire those that have lost their faith
How a good butt-kicking can help us understand God
And more…
