Description
In the midst of our daily lives, and the world around us, the search for peace and serenity can seem like a faraway dream–something that we can only find on vacation or when we are far removed from everyday life. But attaining peace and serenity is truly possible–in our souls and around us–if we don’t abandon our supernatural outlook. As St. Josemaria Escriva said, “a soul loses all sense of peace and serenity when it turns away from its goal, and forgets that it was created by God to be a saint” (Friends of God, no. 10).
In this video collection of our 2021 Virtual Fall Conference, the St. Josemaria Institute welcomes our featured speaker, Catherine McMahon, who presents insights into what causes a soul to lose the sense of peace and serenity. And, she offers practical advice on how we can not only maintain peace in our souls but also become sowers of peace and joy in our homes, workplace and the world.
