    Excellent! So clear & profound, a lot of think about – Fr. Tetlow is a great & thorough presenter.

    Simple steps to understand what discernment is and when it will work! or not – sin will definitley keep you from knowing God’s will for your life. A life of prayer is necessary.

    Fr. Tetlow is the foremost among the great teachers of our era.

    Discerning God’s Will was our first introduction to the carefully prepared journey through a life-changing process that is the Ignatian examen of the spirit. Father Tetlow was clearly chosen to host this lecture series as he is foremost among the great teachers and spiritual guides of our era. Now You Know Media is truly in touch with the wellspring of Catholic Christian learning that is so desperately needed in our chaotic and self-destructive world and time.
