Join Dan Burke and Melissa Elson as they answer questions from listeners about infused contemplation, recollection and desolation.
Topics/Questions Covered in the Show:
What is contemplation? What is the difference between natural and infused contemplation? What is the difference between acquired recollection and infused recollection? What do you do when spiritual reading is no longer joyful? Should the realization of one's sinfulness cause desolation? Once we receive the gift of infused contemplation, where do we go from there? How do we share this complete and consuming love?Resources:
