The Poco a Poco Podcast with the Franciscan Friars of the Renewal For Those Not Accepted to Seminary or Religious Life
Episode 218 - For Those Not Accepted to Seminary or Religious Life
Have you ever felt rejected by God or the church, as you try to get into religious life?
This can be an utterly heartbreaking experience.
When faced with "No" as a response to the desire to get into religious life, one might feel that they are being rejected by God or the church, that they're undesirable, or too broken for religious life. But in reality, that is not the case.
This decision is actually a culmination of careful assessment of one's discernment, capacity, and the call they felt into religious life. This episode speaks more about that in hopes of explaining the reasons behind those decisions and encountering the hurt and vulnerable in these situations.
