About this episode
In this episode, my guest is Dr. Brian Russell, the author of Centering Prayer. Brian is a return guest to the show. I’m grateful he agreed to come back on to have a conversation on The Discipline of Discernment. Brian is a professor of biblical studies and a transformational coach for pastors and spiritually-minded professionals.
In the conversation, Brian and I discuss:
- What is discernment
- The obstacles to discerning wisely
- How contemplative practices help us discern
- Navigating Life’s questions
- The wisdom of discernment and much more
Brian also has a podcast called The Deep Dive Spirituality Conversations podcast.
