In this episode, Fr. Kevin Dyer is back to explain the 3 Modes of Discerning God’s Will according to St. Ignatius of Loyola. Fr. Kevin and Jess discuss:

• The first mode of discernment, when God makes His will perfectly clear beyond all doubt
• The second mode, when God attracts a person’s heart to His will by means of consolation and desolation
• The third mode, when a person uses his or her reasoning faculties to make a decision.

Fr. Kevin also shares

• The mode of discernment that he thinks is the rarest
• His advice to people who want to make a step away from their current situation but don’t yet feel God’s call to something else
• His advice on how to pray through the different modes of discernment
