Dating God: Intimacy, Prayer, and Franciscan Spirituality

Fr. Dan brings the Franciscan tradition to life by imagining our faith journeys in terms of
"dating" as a dynamic, creative, and renewing spiritual thread for twenty-first century
Christians.

    "All relationships need alone time" That is so beautifully and powerfully expressed! For me, the lock down was a time to date God intentionally. This is why, it was and is so special ❤

    Thankyou brother. As an Anglican in Australia, I have always loved St Francis. I was inspired by your words, God was speaking to my heart.

    He is young, yet how wonderful to be so inspiring, he may not know or have much life experience, yet, with time he will mature and he will hopefully be as beautiful as he is now. I am a Franciscan in my sixth decade and with all of my experience of this world and of this life, of faith, God and all that is, I will give thanks for this life and bless him. pax et bonum

    Dear Frank As a person born in America I completely agree many people do not know the one true Messiah that came will come again. I and a small raiment of Catholic Christians know pray dress modest don't kill fight against abortion conception divorce all biblical. My God the Messiah began his faith 33ad from the line of David as the prophecies told. where he would be born Bethlehem to who virgin mission our whole world one day will see God when he comes back and every knee will bend. He loves you wants you do not Kill people you don't have that right who is your made up God that egotistical Kills humans. My God created Adam Eve the whole world. Our world is not wholesome many people who are Christians are not practicing faith. There are still Catholic Christians that wear veil in Church pray Morning evenings read scripture mostly obey Messiah he says to love your enemy be perfect as your Father in Heaven is Perfect we grow daily to love more.

    ella hope what is your hope, prayer helps but evil works are not heavenly. Not even white sorcery comes from heaven get how you get rich. How many abortions you had? before you became a catholic? how many friars killed in their lifetime. The Pharaohs crucified my lord. old woman if you don't know Stonehedge people crucified my Lord and hurt his mother. Just don't write. because it's stupid for the rich sorcery to worship a damned dragon and think it's. heavenly.

    I reject this conspiracy. My Country Feedback 🙏🦅 I view the women's movement as having gone terribly, and diabolically astray. It just keeps mutating from one vacuous issue to the next. When those women went to Washington DC several years ago, and misconducted themselves so scandalously, and in the halls of power and federal government, I that they failed to comprehend that their attempts to power would not go unnoticed. I am of the opinion that the situation that we see now prevalent in my hometown of Los Angels is a punitive result from all of vitriolic miasma created by their obstreperous; caustic, toxic, fatally flawed miaappropriation of the powers which they were endowed with. Now just look at the mess we've got now every where. And still their misguided, debacled behaviour is still filtering down throughout society and it seems that there is no remedy for the declining, decaying, rotting civilization that they have proudly managed to create. Can you imagine anyone being proud of this? I am not proud of my hometown of Los Angeles; California. To tell the honest truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth I am ashamed of my hometown. It is a hometown to be ashamed of under the present illegal oligarchy occupation. Every previous administration was superior to this one. I don't think this town has ever been so bad off during its entire existence. Morally this town is bad off. Socially this town is bad off. And curiously, this seems to be a decline-seeking society. A society of people steadily and persistently seeking it's own decline every day. Go figure that one out. If anyone seeks to elevate and up lift this society, immediately all hands on deck seek to sink the society back down to the least common denominator for all. This town is no longer capable of upward mobility because there is no where to go. The Conspirators have seen to it that all upwardly mobile ambitions are thwarted. Upward is no longer even there.

    Knows little to nothing of dating, probably because he is so young. Were he less invested in his metaphor, he may have something to say. Maybe when he matures....
