Description

Flanders talks to Mr. Dan Burke, founder of SpiritualDirection.com, avila-institute.org and https://www.apostoliviae.org about the formation of boys into men in the “one thing necessary”: the spiritual life.

* Why is Mary so critical for the spiritual formation of Men?

* We discuss mental prayer and Catholic resources to advance in the spiritual life and form our sons into men of God in their prayer lives.

* Besides the obvious mortal sins, what are ways that men get stuck in the spiritual life and fail to advance in mental prayer?

* What are the best resources for the spiritual life for our sons?

* What is the best spiritual reading?

* Is Imitation of Christ the Sine Qua Non?

* What is the difference between the Christian and non-Christian east in terms of the spiritual life?
