This season, Sr. Orianne Pietra René and Sr. Julie Benedicta share some of the interviews the sisters did with college students and campus ministers at the SEEK24 conference in St. Louis. Each episode will focus on a topic the students brought up. Today, we're exploring how fear can hold us back in our spiritual lives--and also how talking to God about it can be a huge step forward. Stay tuned for our next episode, where we'll continue this conversation when it comes to anxiety in prayer.

Thanks for joining us, and thank you to all of the SEEK participants who joined us!

· Fr. Boniface Hicks' Sermon for Good Friday: Trust that We Are Loved in our Weakness

· Hebrews 4:14-16

· Pope Saint John Paul II’s encyclical on mercy, Dives in misericordia

“Conversion to God always consists in discovering His mercy, that is, in discovering that love which is patient and kind as only the Creator and Father can be; the love to which the "God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ" is faithful to the uttermost consequences in the history of His covenant with man; even to the cross and to the death and resurrection of the Son. Conversion to God is always the fruit of the “rediscovery of this Father, who is rich in mercy.” Authentic knowledge of the God of mercy, the God of tender love, is a constant and inexhaustible source of conversion” #13

Challenge: If you are struggling with fear with anything in your life, admit it to God and let it be your prayer today.

Prayer prompt inspired by this episode: Pray with the passage from Hebrews 4, and invite the Lord give you some sense of how he is with you and understands your wounds or difficulties.
