About this episode

The episode discusses the importance of focusing on God's presence rather than self-analysis, inspired by Brother Lawrence's teachings.

Do you think about yourself too much? Brother Lawrence emphasizes that the closer we draw to God, the less preoccupied we become with ourselves. Fr. Gregory and Rebecca challenge us to let go of our tendency to constantly self-analyze so that we can focus on God's presence and action in our lives. Today, we are reading Part 4: The Ways of Brother Lawrence, pages 127-130. To get your copy of the complete reading plan, visit ascensionpress.com/catholicclassics
