We come in as sons and daughters, then we graduate from sonship and daughtership.

It is definitely not easy. But we are invited to become fathers and mothers after the heart of God.

Trust Comes From Relationship
This episode kicks off a four-part series on a new retreat based on the Litany of Trust from the Sisters of Life. There are some virtues we can work on and grow in — but trust isn’t like that.
