Seminar Online Presents

Discernment of Spirits for Lent and Beyond
A Webinar with Susan Brinkmann, O.C.D.S.
February 25, 2020 at 8PM ET

Drawing upon the writings of St. Ignatius, the Carmelite saints, and the spiritual masters, Susan Brinkmann OCDS will help you to use this Lenten season to learn how to discern God’s will for your life. This webinar will teach you how to tell the difference between God’s voice, your own voice, and the voice of the devil when you are facing important decisions in life. Susan will address some of the common lies the enemy uses on women that can undermine our ability to discern God’s voice and offer direction on how to uproot those lies in order to fully embrace your God-given vocation in life.  

In this webinar, participants will learn about: 

  1. How to form the right disposition for discerning God's will 
  2. Consolations and desolations and how they can help us - or prevent us - from discerning God's will
  3. The various means God gives us to discern His will 
  4. How to discern if an inspiration is coming from God, yourself, or the devil
