This episode kicks off a three-part mini-series in which we put some of you, our listeners, behind the mic. The episode was inspired by our gratitude for the rich friendship and Christian witness that the podcast has brought into our lives.
Today’s guest is Fr. Matt Henry, a priest of the diocese of Phoenix, Arizona. Fr. Matt shares the story of how he moved from a “notional” to a real faith in Christ, what continues to nourish his path of conversion, and the intensity of life he has discovered through a ministry of accompaniment. //
Fr. Matt offered the monthly challenge of praying an Ignatian Examen (an overview can be found here: www.ignatianspirituality.com/examen-prayer-card/). Tune in to part two of the mini-series to discover the media recommendation! //
