LFT-5 The Reality of our Conscience – Listening For Truth w/ Deacon James Keating- Discerning Hearts Podcasts


Episode 5 -Listening For Truth
The Reality of Our Conscience.  What it is and what it isn’t.  The importance of proper formation…through the sacramental life, the Catechism of the Church and Sacred Scripture.  “Follow the Truth” is the beginning of the conversation, not “follow your conscience” in order to make the sacred decision.  Not to be passive but teachable is the goal.  The Marian deposition is the the model for moral formation.  Conscience is the judgement of the mind as it listens to the voice of Christ through the lives of the saints, the sacraments, the Catechism and Scripture in prayer.

Deacon James Keating, Ph.D., is a Professor of Spiritual Theology at Kenrick Glennon Seminary, in St. Louis, MO. He previously served as the Director of Theological Formation at the Institute for Priestly Formation located at Creighton University in Omaha, NE.

 

Listening for Truth leads men and women in a search for a fuller experience of God that begins in prayer, grows in the rediscovery of our spiritual being, and grounds itself in the truth of Jesus Christ. A presentation of the Christian life as an engagement of the whole person — body, mind, and soul — in the challenge of daily living.
