Discerning Religious Life

Friends, at the recent FOCUS SEEK, seminarians and young people discerning their vocation asked me range of questions about calling and vocations, including:

• Did Bishop Barron ever consider religious life?
• How should we use philosophy to approach and interact with theology?
• What should we do about a “dark night of the soul” when it comes to discernment?
• How should one discern between dating versus pursuing a religious vocation?
• What should women in particular look for when discerning a religious order?
• How should one sift through fears and anxieties during discernment?
• What is something that Bishop Barron learned as a priest, that he wish he had known as a seminarian?
