The Fire Within by Ignatius Press

Episode 172 - Suffering and Prayer, Series on Fire Within by Fr. Thomas Dubay, S.M. (Part 5 of 8)

In reality, suffering's out there, in many ways, and in most ways, it's unavoidable.

So, "Okay, what do we do with it?". This is the question that we'll try to unpack in today's episode.

We are invited to unite our suffering with Jesus and offer it to Him. As we suffer generously and give that to the Lord, one of the fruits of it is that it creates the space and cultivates the soul for profound union with God Himself.

In this fifth episode of our Fire Within series, we'll dive into and talk about suffering, prayer, and growth in the spiritual life and discuss the close correlation between suffering and growth in prayer.
