This week Doug, Sheila and Fr Mitch discuss the celebration of the week of prayer for Christian Unity through the Catholic Church.  They discuss religion with the root meaning to connect again, should be the path to connection.  They discuss ways we can connect through faith and the ways that our modern world makes connection difficult.  They talk about the roadblocks to unity such as self consciousness (self centeredness), scapegoating and fear.  Doug laments about the chaos that seems to be happening all around us and Fr Mitch reminds us that chaos has always been with us and that any sense of control has been an illusion all along.  They talk about the ultimate good news that God loves us and promised us a future.  Our whole life is a participation in Gods life.  We hope you enjoy this episode as we prepare for the next Way retreat coming up on April 2. https://www.instagram.com/@thewaymindbodyspirit
