]]> 280: Reminiscing, Lectio Divina & Tragedy w/Liv Harrison https://fortecatholic.fireside.fm/280 0b290fea-472a-4d02-a011-93ad31703b1f Wed, 23 Feb 2022 01:00:00 -0600 Taylor Schroll full Taylor Schroll Liv cohosts as Taylor shares about a recent funeral he attended and dealing with tragedy/grief. They also discuss the often hidden gem of Lectio Divina and looking back at moments from the past to remember the good God has done for us. 59:16 no The show starts on a bit of a somber note this week. Taylor recently attended a funeral and shares a bit about the experience, grieving the loss of someone and the difficulties many people face with mental health. In the second segment, they discuss the (often hidden) gem of Lectio Divina. This ancient way of praying with Scripture has helped many people grow in tremendous ways in their spiritual life. They walk through the parable of the sower with Lectio Divina in mind. Finally, Taylor talks about a random moment that brought him back to an encounter with God from 2004. This brings about a conversation about returning to memories of times when we felt God's presence during periods of darkness. We hope you enjoy this week's episode!
