Vocation Chat (with Reverend Alexander‪)‬ Naija Catholic Podcast

    • Christianity

No busy God call!!!
Reverend Alex, A Catholic Deacon shares his story about his vocation and gives insights about Discernment

When Catholics speak of vocation, they usually mean state in life. In fact, they usually mean priesthood or religious life.

Despite all the talk about a vocation shortage, there is in fact no such thing in the Catholic Church.
The real shortage is that of Vocational discernment, and that is a very different problem.

The shortfall in the number of candidates for the priesthood, the consecrated life and other forms of Christian witness and service would quickly disappear if many more Catholics, and ideally all, made it a practice to discern, accept and live out their unique, irreplaceable callings from God their personal vocations.

>>>>>>How we can we all discern

>>>>>>Why we shouldn't be scared of discernment

>>>>>>The indispensable role of Spiritual directors in discernment

|12:50| - Personal Discernment story to the Priesthood
|18:35| How to recognize/discern God's call
|25:59| - Message to people considering a Vocation or scared to consider one
