As contemplatives, we talk a lot about invitations, discernment, and inner knowing. These things define how we choose to live and the posture we desire to hold toward our lives and decisions.
But what does discernment look like for you? Have you learned what your ways of inner knowing and discernment are? When you’re in a place of discernment, do you know how to find the wisdom you seek?
This mini-course guides you through a process of self-reflection and noticing so that you discover your own way of inner knowing, led by Christianne Squires, founder of the Light House community for contemplative women. It also includes a bonus module of things to consider if you’re sitting in a space of active discernment at the moment.
