Hearing With The Heart: Conversations Over Coffee
Join us as we explore topics that invite us to live deeper our Catholic, Christian faith.
Hosts Janet Jones (Director of Faith Formation) and Bridgett Passauer (Coordinator of Adult Faith Formation, Evangelization, and Community Life), from Church of the Ascension in Virginia Beach, have incredible conversations over coffee. We invite you to grab a mug of your favorite brew and share in their stories, laughs, and connection with Jesus and each other.
Hearing With The Heart: Conversations Over Coffee
Pilgrims on a Journey
On this Thanksgiving Day episode, Bridgett and Janet share how we are pilgrims on a journey to eternal life. Like the pilgrims recognized on Thanksgiving, our faith journey comes with its challenges. We are strengthened by the knowledge that this world is not the end. Our journey as pilgrims leads us from our earthly existence to our heavenly home.
Baby Step(s)
1. Pray to the Holy Spirit
2. Look at the words of Advent Word Cloud (Click Advent Word Cloud for the words)
3. Select one of the words, whichever word is placed on your heart by the Holy Spirit
4. As you read or hear the readings for each week, look through the lens of this word and listen to God speaking to you. It may take a few times to read through the readings (Lectio Devina) to uncover what God is trying to share with you through your word.
5. If nothing comes to you, offer a prayer of trust to God that He will reveal what needs to be revealed in His time.
6. Do NOT be discouraged; God’s time is not our time, but He will always present Himself when the time is right.
