Ah, and that’s why the Seven Storey Mountain is one of my favorite book! Amen, brother

“It was about stepping out of the world we normally occupy, into another state of being. Kind of like what we try to do during Lent.”
Well stated Dan. I think we’ve all heard of the 3 R’s of Reduce, Reuse, Recyle. You prompted me to come up with another set of 3 R’s: Remove (get away from this world), Repent (draw nearer to God) and Refresh (our souls). So, glad you mentioned CRHP & Cursillo. Two wonderful vehicles for us to experience/practice the 3 R’s. By the way, Gethsemani has been on my list of places to go/things to do.
Peace

All the more reason why I visit the Catholic Moment website every time and all the time. There is no reason why my faith should not change during this Lenten period with the powerful teachings coming from all your authors. Dan well said and done. May God bless you earnestly.

Thank you, Dan! Your words have inspired me. The desire to pray always come back. In my case, the desire to pray the rosary comes and goes. This lent the desire is stronger than never before. I am so happy about this. The rosary is such an important part of my faith. Those beads are powerful.
