Description

Many talks in Catholic settings. inspire. But do they transform? Do they have a life changing impact on the people who are listening to them? It's true that not every time you listen to a Catholic talk, it's gonna lead, you know, to life transformation. But what if None of the talks that you listen to lead to any change in your life.

Something's missing.

Today I want to talk about this, this all important step of making our talks actionable, something that the people who are listening to them can act upon and thus see some change and transformation in their life.

I've got a great episode today with my trusty, occasional cohost, Connor Flanagan, and we talk about a “seven day spiritual prep plan” that you can do ahead of the SEEK conference or ahead of any conference or retreat that you're getting ready to go into.

So seven days of different spiritual activities before the conference starts so that your conference experience, the spiritual moment in your life. can really, kind of be maximized so as to make a transformation and a change in your life after the conference. So the work we're putting in now is really for our future selves.

So that's what we're diving into today.

Here’s a link to the PDF Overview of the “Seven Day Spiritual Prep Plan for SEEK”

And this episode is, is also being released on the Seek podcast. So please check that out.

Description

You may not realize it, but the truth is, inside of you are an unlimited number of great stories to tell. For some people, a rare few actually, this is self-evident - stories just seem to flow out as easily as the next breath. For most, though, it’s a slog - we either keep coming back to the same stories over and over OR we try to come up with new ones, but just can’t seem to recall anything worth sharing. This is a pain point for people giving talks on a regular basis - BECAUSE stories can often make or break the talks we give.

And today, I brought in two expert storytellers, Chris Kostelc and Kory LaCroix. Each have served in ministry at the Parish level for the last 15 years. Legends really, around here in the Twin Cities Catholic world. And they started a podcast over a year ago called “STORYDRAM” - telling stories to lead others to THE story of what God has done for us in Christ.
