Manly Catholic: Igniting Men to Light the World on Fire Ep 89 - Exploring The Wilderness Warrior with Father Dwight Longnecker
What if embarking on a spiritual journey could lead us to profound self-discovery and true freedom? This episode with our esteemed guest, Father Dwight Longnecker, explores this captivating idea. Renowned author, blogger and Catholic priest, Fr. Dwight adeptly juggles multiple roles. He shares insights about his spiritual journey and the intriguing balance between his roles as husband, father, and priest. We also delve into his latest book, "The Way of the Wilderness Warrior."
Picture this: A path that takes you out of your comfort zone, into the wilderness, a journey of introspection with characters that mirror your own quest. Fr. Dwight unwraps the symbolism of the wilderness and its historical significance. We traverse the hero's quest, the fight for silence in a noisy world, and the importance of stepping out of our comfort zones. We also dig into an engrossing conversation about how surrendering to God's will can lead to true freedom, juxtaposed with how culture often encourages a contradictory path.
Join us on this conversation through the wilderness with Fr. Dwight!
