What if Your Faults are the Key to Your Holiness?

In this deeply encouraging episode, Fr. John Ezratty joins Jessica to talk about one of the most misunderstood aspects of the spiritual life: how to view our faults through the lens of faith. 

Drawing on decades of experience as a spiritual director and confessor, Fr. John shares wisdom that combats perfectionism and opens a new way of seeing failure — not as defeat, but as an invitation to deeper intimacy with God.

In this episode, Fr. John and Jess discuss:

• Why becoming more aware of your faults is actually a sign of progress in the spiritual life
• How to avoid perfectionism and scrupulosity while still striving for holiness
• Practical steps for turning your faults into fuel for growth

Whether you’re feeling discouraged by your imperfections or wondering how to make real progress in your interior life, this conversation will leave you with hope, clarity, and concrete tools for the journey.
