9 Steps for Spiritual Preparedness in Moments of Crisis

In the words of Jon Sobrino, every moment of crisis is the time to embrace our call to “political holiness.” We cannot allow moments of crisis or fear to paralyze us. We have God, and we have one another.

In these moments, the false spirit (as Fr. Dan Hartnett, SJ calls it) uses the tactics of fear and isolation to drive us deeper into despair, whereas, the Good spirit moves us into community, trust, and courage. Let us follow the whispers and guidance of the Good Spirit.

These resources are offered to help you spiritually prepare in this critical moment. In this defining moment, we must be disciplined in grounding and nourishing our spiritual lives, for it is from that wellspring that we draw the courage, clarity, and resilience to move forward.
