Episode 48: Endure Your Mind

What should we do with intrusive, impure thoughts?The more we try to push them away, the harder they seem to stick.If only we had a mental delete button. It’s exhausting to feel like our own minds are working against us.This week, we see how the Desert Fathers faced this inner battle. They don’t promise quick fixes. But they offer a way to weaken these thoughts over time until they lose their grip.__________This January, take up the example of the Fathers and embrace a life of prayer, asceticism, and fraternity. Leave behind the pharaohs and idols that keep you enslaved and take up the journey to the promised land. Join tens of thousands of men from all around the world for the Exodus 90 Challenge.
