Series on Fire Within by Fr. Thomas Dubay, S.M. (Part 4 of 8)
We are all invited to a profound, mystical union with God. But to grow in our spiritual life, Fr. Dubay mentioned in his book that there are certain conditions that we need to understand our growth in the mystical or spiritual life. In this fourth episode of our series on the Fire Within, we’ll reflect upon and respond to the 8 conditions for spiritual growth. This also is an invitation to spiritually “get our ducks in a row,” leave behind sin, and live the Gospel with generosity.

Prayer, Presence, Party
What do you do after Easter Sunday? We are invited to be overwhelmed with paschal joy during the Easter season. Still, instead, we usually resolve our daily grind like everything isn’t transformed by our encounter with the risen Lord.
