"From my very first session of spiritual direction with Father Michael in 2016, he has continually impressed upon me the need to discern everything and to reject all that is not from Jesus. Learning to distinguish the voice of the tempter from the voice of my Bridegroom has been life-changing. I highly recommend listening to this episode of Heart to Heart Spiritual Direction and putting Father Michael's wisdom into practice." - Laura Ercolino, Foundress of Hope's Garden
