Tune in for a profound discussion on personal growth, virtue, and the importance of self-reflection! Join me as I recount a compelling story about a longtime friend who experienced a painful family rift. Over the years, certain difficult traits within his family have only magnified, echoing C.S. Lewis’s insights from “The Great Divorce” about how unchecked vices can grow over time. We’ll delve into the idea that virtues need to be actively pursued to prevent negative traits from dominating our lives.
In this session, I’ll share personal anecdotes and valuable lessons about the importance of constructive feedback and the humbling process of recognizing our flaws. We’ll explore how regular practices like confession and prayer can help us overcome our weaknesses and transform us into better individuals. Plus, discover why starting our own “purgatory” on Earth—through reparation and forgiveness—can lead to a more peaceful and fulfilling life.
Don’t miss out on this enlightening conversation about magnifying virtues, mitigating vices, and striving for holiness. Like and share if you find this helpful, and let’s grow together in faith and grace. God bless!
