One of the most important parts of growth in the spiritual life is to be able to discern God's will and, likewise, discern what is not of God. Father Thaddaeus Lancton, MIC, explains the discernment of spirits using the time-tested technique of Ignatian Spirituality. Then meet Fr. Richard Shuaibu who shares his courageous story of discerning God's will when making a life-changing decision.
