Episode 41: Seeking Joy When Purification Is Painful

Send us a text

Today, we focus on the transformative journey of purification and the pursuit of holiness.  This episode delves into the phases of purification, both active and passive, exploring the acceptance of circumstances and character defaults.

You may have heard the saying, "mind over matter". It's a phrase I always had playing on repeat. It's also, quite true. Our minds guide our actions and it's of significance to be aware of the ways we are called to both active and passive purification. When our intellect is informed, we can better make the choice to choose joy when things feel heavy. 

The episode  explores the six aspects of soul purification outlined by a 14th-century German Dominican, Johannes Tauler. These aspects include the daily cross, growing desire for holiness, disappointment in our failings, anguish for lost souls, exterior trials, and painful doubts. Kylie emphasizes the necessity of patient perseverance and a spirit of faith in the face of trials.
