In this eye-opening episode, we sit down with Monsignor James Shea to explore one of the most pressing spiritual dilemmas of our modern age: Why does more convenience and advanced technology fail to bring us true rest and happiness? Drawing on Blaise Pascal’s famous warning about the “torture” of being alone with our thoughts, Msgr. Shea reveals how acedia (spiritual sloth) seeps into our lives and keeps us chasing endless distractions. If you’ve ever wondered why we remain restless despite having so many comforts, this conversation is for you.
Topics Covered:
The paradox of modern convenience vs. genuine peace Blaise Pascal’s insight into human restlessness Understanding acedia in today’s tech-driven culture The “bucket list” mindset and its hidden pitfalls How material abundance can lead to spiritual emptiness The role of silence, prayer, and the Eucharist in finding true rest Why real leisure requires something deeper than just “time off”Tune in to the Wonder Lab:
