E84: Fr. Paul Sullivan
In this episode we talk to Fr. Paul Sullivan from the Diocese of Phoenix. Before we got into the topic we bantered about how pineapple belongs on pizza as much as mango belongs on salsa. Then we move on to talk about discernment of spirits, consolation, desolation and a number of tips and tricks that can help us notice how we can grow in union with God.
